The Benefits of CBD for Chronic Pain

Benefits of CBD Oil
CBD stands for cannabinoids. Unlike other cannabinoids, however, it doesn’t produce any psychoactive effects. Cannabidiol is extracted from the flowers and buds of marijuana or hemp plants and is used to treat quite a range of health issues, including but not limited to chronic pain. CBD oil is made with the extract taken from the cannabis plant. It isn’t straight up cannabis extract, however. It’s usually mixed with a carrier oil like coconut oil. The non-intoxicating marijuana extract helps the body produce and use endocannabinoids in a better way to regulate immune-system responses. In this article, we shall discuss more about CBD oil and how it can be used to relieve the body of chronic pain and other illnesses.

 

CBD Oil for Pain Relief

Studies show that CBD interacts with the immune system and the brain receptors. When the receptors react with CBD, there are anti-inflammatory effects that reduce pain. CBD oil can also be used to treat anxiety, stress, insomnia, menstrual cramps, multiple sclerosis, and fibromyalgia. The most significant benefit of this oil, however, is that CBD reduces chronic pain and inflammation by impacting endocannabinoid receptor activity and interacting with neurotransmitters.

 

Another major benefit of using CBD oil is that you can continuously use CBD oil for treating chronic pain and not build up a tolerance for it. It is so effective that once you start using it, you will never ever have to find a new medication for your problem. You don’t have to increase the dose of the CBD oil, either. This makes CBD oil an effective medication for persistent long-term conditions like arthritis and joint pain.

 

Do I Need CBD Oil?

The FDA has not approved of cannabis yet, so a doctor cannot prescribe CBD oil to you. Therefore, a test or scan cannot help you figure out whether you need CBD oil or not. However, there are other ways you can find out if you should get home a bottle of CBD oil.

 

question mark

Ask Yourself a Few Questions Like: 

Do I have chronic pain?
Are my current medications effective?
If the answer to the first question is yes, and the answer to the second question is no, you might want to try out CBD oil to get relief from the pain.

 

CBD Cannabinoids or THC Cannabinoids

Taking CBD cannabinoids will not give you any sort of high. This is a plus to many people who don’t want to experience the drowsiness, giddiness, and confusion that comes with cannabinoids like THC, which does result in a “high.” CBD does not interact with the same brain receptors as the THC and, therefore, gives your body a way to use their own endocannabinoids in an effective way.

 

Conclusion

Studies have shown that CBD oil can play a potential role in treating many health issues, including anxiety, fibromyalgia, depression, insomnia, and even heart disease. It may also provide a natural alternative to alleviate pain in cancer patients.

 

CBD oil is easy to use and does not have any adverse side effects. The best part is that it is a lot cheaper than other medications usually prescribed by doctors. Make sure that you use CBD oil as directed in order to reap the benefits.

    I feel like medical marijuana doesn’t get the respect it deserves. Not enough people understand the difference between psychoactive THC and the difference you get with CBD consumption. I will be showing this to a few family members I know will benefit from CBD

      Yes it would. You can always book an appt with a medical cannabis health centre that would set up an appointment to talk to a nurse re: what oil and dosage would work best for you.

    My uncle has had back problems for the past 10 years, he has tried everything with little to no results. After a lot of convincing, he tried CBD and he hasn’t looked back since. We highly recommend.

    My mom has severe arthritis in her fingers. The joints at the tip are always swollen and painful to touch. She often wakes up crying in the middle of the night. CBD is the only thing that stops the pain. She calls it a miracle and I more people need to try it!
