CBD oil - Benefits and Uses

CBD is the abbreviation for Cannabidiol. It's been around for a long time and helps individuals get rid of the symptoms of a variety of disorders. CBD oil, in any form, has recently been discovered to support a variety of common ailments, including lack of cognitive abilities, mental diseases, anxiety, and both internal and exterior discomfort and pain.

Is CBD Marijuana?

According to most reports, the most well-known compound in cannabis is delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol, also known as THC. THC is the active ingredient in Marijuana. Marijuana does, in fact, contain both CBD and THC. Both of these substances have different effects.

Fin feed state ‘THC is the most commonly known of these two cannabinoids, being the only psychoactive compound in the cannabis plant. The reason it’s the most widely referenced is because it’s responsible for creating a “high”; a mind-altering euphoria. THC can alter behavior, consciousness, mood and perception. It can also help to treat a range of medical symptoms, and is especially effective in relieving chronic pain, reducing nausea, and stimulating appetite.

On the other hand, CBD is not psychoactive, which means that it does not usually affect your mental state when consumed. CBD, can however cause changes in your body.

‘CBD targets a wider range of medical conditions than THC, and is particularly effective in treating pain, anxiety and inflammation, and carries muscle-relaxing and bacteria-destroying properties which make it a useful treatment option for many conditions.’ –(Fin feed)

 

Where does it come from?

CBD is a compound found in the cannabis plant. Cannabis plants are commonly referred to as marijuana or hemp, depending on their THC content. It's worth noting that, according to the Farm Bill, legal hemp plants can't have more than 0.3 percent THC.

Hemp farmers have bred their plants to create more THC and various other compounds, similar to how marijuana growers have bred their plants to produce more THC and other compounds. These farmers, on the other hand, do not alter the plant in any manner. CBD oil is extracted from these plants.

How does it work?

Fin feed states ‘As general knowledge around medicinal cannabis gradually increases, this is something that’s becoming more commonly understood. What you may not realize, however, is that this follows from the fact that the human body actually produces its own endogenous cannabinoids: natural equivalents of the compounds found in the cannabis plant such as THC  and CBD.’

Interesting right? Cannabinoids of various sorts bind to certain receptors in your body to produce a unique effect. The same may be said for CBD. As we know the body creates some forms of cannabinoids on its own. CB 2 receptors and CB1 receptors are two of the most strong CBD receptors.

CB1 receptors can be found in every cell of your body. Many of these, however, can also be found in your brain. Memories, appetite, thinking, mood, emotions, pain, mobility, and many other processes are all aided by the ones located in the brain. And it is to these receptors that THC binds. CB2 receptors, on the other hand, are found throughout your immune system and play a role in pain and inflammation.

Researchers previously thought CBD2 receptors were the receptors to which CBD binds, but they now know that CBD does not bind to any receptors. It appears to assist your body in making greater use of its own cannabinoids.
