THE BENEFITS OF CANNABIS

5 ways CBD Oil Can Support Your Body’s Ability to Reduce Stress and Promote Your Overall Well-being First, let’s answer the biggest question you likely have about CBD... DOES CBD OIL GET YOU HIGH? NO ~ As long as you purchase your oil from a reliable source that verifies THC levels through a 3rd party, and labels the oil correctly. WHERE CBD OIL COMES FROM? CBD is an acronym for Cannabidiol. Legal CBD oil is derived from hemp, a variety of the Cannabis Sativa plant. The other variety of this plant is one you may have also heard of called ‘marijuana.’ When extracted from hemp, CBD will not get you high because it is not THC! (the psychoactive inducing substance found in marijuana). Hemp is one of oldest cultivated plants, and has been used for the toughness of its fibres. Its uses include clothing and shoes, industrial uses such as rope and canvas, paper goods, and body care products like shampoo, soaps, etc. But more importantly, Cannabis has a variety of wellness benefits. WHY IS CBD OIL SO EFFECTIVE? Our bodies have a natural endocannabinoid system(ECS) that is responsible for balance in our body. This system regulates things like... • Stress • Mood • Appetite • Sleep • Pain • Immune response • Inflammation etc. Your body produces its own cannabinoids that can interact with the ECS system. Phytocannabinoids (plants), including CBD may support your ECS in beneficial ways to keep this system in balance without getting you high! Let’s take a look at 5 reasons you may want to start using CBD today... 1. Supports your mood and promotes overall happiness If you suffer from ongoing stress and everyday mild anxiety, you’re not alone. 40+ million people suffer from the effects of anxiety in their lives! Only those who suffer from anxiety can truly understand the impact it has on your day to day life. CBD oil is a natural approach,especially when it’s part of a plan that includes a healthy diet, regular exercise, and practices that alleviate stress.2. Supports your body’s response to inflammation Too much inflammation can have serious consequences to your health. Inflammation is a natural reaction when viruses or bacteria invade our bodies, and are detected.This is acute inflammation, and is the kind we want and need. However, chronic inflammation that gets out of control causes our immune system to react (or overreact) when there’s no need. If chronic inflammation isn’t kept under control, it can cause serious problems. Research is currently studying whether CBD oil could reduce inflammation. 3. Could potentially support pain relief Nobody wants to live in pain. At best, pain can cause us to be miserable, irritable, and can induce dangerous levels of anxiety and stress. At worst, pain can be debilitating, affecting the most important things in life such as happiness, family, work, and our freedom. Many things can cause us to experience chronic pain including muscle aches, joint issues, arthritis, and more.Chemotherapy patients benefit from CBD products, to help with pain, nausea, and sleep. 4. Supports better sleep There are few things worse than not being able to get a good night’s sleep. Not only is it annoying, sleep deprivation is dangerous to your health. Many people find that CBD oil helps them sleep better. This makes sense when you realize that some of the biggest reasons for having trouble sleeping are stress and anxiety. 5. Could CBD oil be an alternative to opioids? Opioid addiction has become an epidemic in the U.S. and beyond. This is due largely to opioids prescribed for pain. The problems occur when it’s time to stop taking the medications, and your body is already addicted. This can have detrimental consequences on people’s entire lives, livelihoods, family issues, financial hardships, and sometimes even lead to death. CBD has been shown in studies to help reduce cravings and anxiety. LET’S WRAP THIS UP You now know enough about CBD oil to make an educated and informed decision to try the products for yourself, and see if it’s right for you, even though we’ve only barely scratched the surface with all the potential uses of CBD. ONE FINAL WARNING: It’s important that you understand where your CBD is coming from, and that all safety measures are met to ensure you’re buying real oil with legal amounts of THC.
