(And the Studies to Prove It)

INTRO

Cannabis has been used for its medicinal properties for centuries, but it’s only in recent years we’ve been able to look at it in more detail. CBD Oil (cannabidiol) is regarded as the main source of the health benefits of the drug, earning a reputation as one of the world’s greatest natural super-drugs. There are countless ways CBD can tackle ailments and improve your health – here are ten of the most common, with the scientific evidence behind it.

A number of cannabinoids can help to relax muscles and relieve pain, but CBD is the most notable and has even been found to be more effective than opiate-based medication. Of course, opiates are addictive and have various negative health implications whereas CBD Oil and CBD eliquid is not physically addictive. Cannabis extracts have been found to relieve pain even more effectively than opioid painkillers. Opioid pain relievers are widely prescribed for pain; however, they pose some serious health concerns and are extremely addictive. This 2006 study shows that CBD can be used to treat all kinds of pain, including post-operative and chronic pain and more.

DEPRESSION

CBD Oil is well-known to help with depression. A 2010 study showed that CBD had antidepressant qualities when given to mice, and many people report that CBD helps lift their mood and give a positive outlook on life. While serious depressive episodes should be treated by a medical professional, the effects of CBD are rapid and can quickly combat negative thoughts, helping the user feel uplifted and relaxed.

CROHN’S DISEASE & IBS

CBD is effective when it comes to modulating the body’s immune function by working on CB2 receptors which are based throughout the immune system. This limits the pain and swelling associated Crohn’s and related disorders. This 2013 study states that cannabis has significant benefits when given to patients with Crohn’s, free of any side effects.

CANCER

Early studies into the cancer-fighting properties of CBD Oil are looking promising. CBD is an antineoplastic agent, meaning it works to inhibit the growth and spread of tumors. It stimulates apoptotic pathways in the body, allowing the immune system to effectively destroy cancerous cells. Although this research is still in its early stages, it looks like CBD has great potential as a treatment option for patients with all kinds of cancer.

BROKEN BONES

CBD Oil and eliquid can even help fix broken limbs. This study shows that CBD plays a critical role in collagen cross-linking. In simple terms, this means it helps fractured bones repair themselves more easily. While it won’t lead to instant miracle results, it certainly helps improve bone strength and speed up the healing process.

ANXIETY

Anxiety affects millions of people around the world. Thankfully, CBD has been reported to be very when it comes to alleviating social anxiety. A study of people with an anxiety disorder shows that CBD significantly reduced anxiety, cognitive impairment and discomfort when it came to public speaking, while the placebo group showed much higher anxiety. While traditional treatment usually involves counselling or anti-depressants, CBD can be more effective as it acts quickly and doesn’t have any notable side effects or withdrawal symptoms.

SCHIZOPHRENIA & PSYCHOSIS

Schizophrenia is estimated to affect around 1.1% of the population, with devastating results on the individual and their family members. Ongoing research suggests that CBD has anxiolytic and antipsychotic benefits that help patients with schizophrenia as well as a number of other psychotic conditions, including bipolar disorder. It is fast becoming regarded as a safe, effective form of alternative treatment for schizophrenia and other forms of psychosis.

CBD OIL AND DIABETES

This study showed that CBD treatment had a dramatic impact on reducing the incidence of diabetes in mice. Cases dropped from 86% in non-treated mice to just 30% in mice medicated with CBD. These results indicate that CBD can inhibit and delay inflammatory cytokine production and destructive insulitis.

SLEEPING PROBLEMS

Having trouble sleeping? CBD can even help with that. While THC-rich cannabis has long been known as a useful way of drifting off to sleep, studies have shown that CBD can be just as useful. This 2006 study tested CBD on rats, in both lights-on and lights-off environments and found that while CBD increased alertness with the lights on it had no discernable effects on lights-off sleep. The study’s authors concluded that CBD might hold therapeutic potential for those with somnolence, or excessive daytime sleepiness from a not-so-good night’s rest.

CBD OIL AND ASTHMA

Asthma is a common disorder, suffered by many people all over the world. Although research is in its early stages, recent studies involving rats suggests that CBD is an effective treatment for minimizing the inflammation experienced by asthma sufferers.
