Pain? Diabetes? Heart? Anxiety? We got you...

Another must have oil – CBD oil!!!  What is it, you ask?  CBD Hemp oil is from the hemp plant, which is high in CBD (cannabidiol) and low in THC(tetrahydrocannabinol)(the part that gets you high 😉), so this is very different from marijuana that one might smoke.  Turns out our bodies have an endogenous cannabinoid system, which is a system of millions of cannabinoid receptors in the brain and nervous system.  Just a thought, but could this be why there are skyrocketing cases of anxiety and depression in our society since marijuana has been made illegal???  This system helps our body regulate itself in many, many ways.  Not only does CBD oil contain high levels of cannabidiol, but also vitamins, minerals and antioxidants which boost your health even more!

            CBD oil has an enormous range of benefits – killing cancer, pain relief, eliminates depression, kills anxiety, improves mood, fights chronic disease, including multiple sclerosis, prevents arthritis, protects the immune system, aids sleep, heals the skin and balances the metabolism.

            In a study by Robert Ramer, et al., they found, “ these findings provide a novel mechanism underlying the anti-invasive action of cannabidiol and imply its use as a therapeutic option for the treatment of highly invasive cancers.” AND “Additionally, in vivo studies in thymic-aplastic nude mice revealed a significant inhibition of A549 lung metastasis in cannabidiol-treated animals as compared to vehicle-treated controls.” (1)  They used the word significant!

            Researchers in London found that CBD oil relieves pain of all kinds, because it disrupts the activity of pain receptors and instead causes the body to flood with endorphins, the “feel good” elements that soothe the system.  CBD oil also cures nausea, activating certain auto receptors, which causes antiemetic effects in the body.  CBD oil also has enormous anti-inflammatory effects, especially for those suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, migraines, multiple sclerosis, muscle and joint pain, pancreatitis, lung injury, and inflammatory bowel disease.  From Weiss, et al, “Cannabidiol (CBD), a non-psychoactive cannabidinoid has been previously shown by us to suppress cell-mediated autoimmune joint destruction in an animal model of rheumatoid arthritis.” (2)

            A study by Dr. Scott Shannon from the university of Colorado School of Medicine found CBD oil an excellent sleep tonic – combats insomnia, interrupted sleep, PTSD, and restless leg disorder.  Because it releases endorphins and neurotransmitters, CBD is antianxiety and an anti-depressant, as well.  Research has also found that CBD oil is a potent anti-psychotic and could be useful for people suffering from schizophrenia and similar ailments.   According to the University of New South Wales, CBD is an excellent preventative against Alzheimer’s, as well.

            In a study by Weiss, et al, “We now report that CBD treatment significantly reduces the incidence of diabetes in NOD mice from an incidence of 86% in non-treated control mice to an incidence of 30% in CBD-treated mice.” (2)  So now we have fixed diabetes too!!!  CBD oil has also been shown to lower the level of insulin, as well.  CBD is also great for your entire cardiovascular system, too!!!  By increasing the vasorelaxation of the arteries, it protects from vascular damage caused by inflammation in a high glucose environment.  And just to put the cherry on top, CBD oil fights alcoholism and cocaine use, preventing alcohol and drug relapses.  “The results provide proof of principle supporting potential of CBD in relapse prevention along two dimensions: beneficial actions across several vulnerability states and long-lasting effects with only brief treatment.”                      
 Ironic. Isn’t it?
