CBD effects

A new survey from Brightfield Group and HelloMD covered 2,400 of HelloMD’s community of 150,000 members and did a deep dive into the usage of CBD products and their effectiveness. HelloMD is an online community that brings together doctors and cannabis patients.

The most common reasons people used CBD were to treat insomnia, depression, anxiety and joint pain, according to Dr. Perry Solomon, the Chief Medical Officer of HelloMD. 42% of the CBD users said they had stopped using traditional medications and had switched to using cannabis instead. 80% said that they found the products to be “very or extremely effective.” Only 3% or less found the product to be either ineffectual or only slightly effective.

One unique difference between THC and CBD is that CBD does not bind to the CB1 and CB2 cannabinoid receptors on your cells like THC does. Another way of saying it is the CBD molecule does not align, and therefore, it has a different effect on your body's cells.

Science has repeatedly proven that CBD could:

be anti-inflammatory
relieve pain
be an antioxidant that eliminates nasty free radicals that are the source of certain neurodegenerative diseases
relieve nausea
have a positive effect on food cravings
reduce acne
enhances the efficiency of other known anti-epileptic drugs
benefit heart health
reduce anxiety and depression
lessen cell damage and extends cellular health

CBD on the skin

CBD isn’t only good in the body – it’s just as effective on the body. Especially when paired with the essential oil benefits of hemp, CBD oil can be used to moisturize, heal and protect. It’s a great way to soothe one of the most forgot about organs in the body – the skin. CBD oil combined with hemp seed oil is excellent for topical use because it not only provides vital nutrients, it also has anti-inflammatory properties. Hemp seed oil is a known source of amino acids, vitamins, and omega fatty acids. CBD oil created from hemp, or delivered in hemp seed oil provides the added benefit of terpenes, leaving your skin refreshed, soothed and nourished.

CBD oil skin care products are ideal for conditions such as chronic itchy skin, acne, and even inflammation caused by arthritis. At-home CBD Skincare products can be created by combining CBD oil with all natural oils, butter or soaps.

Good for the mind

CBD can help alleviate certain cognitive problems, not limited to fighting off insanity. It also assists with serious anxiety and depression. This harmless substance that can improve your sense of well-being.

Stops cancer in its tracks

Cancer is a vicious disease, and it is empowering to know that CBD has the ability to lessen the chances of cancer cells continuously populating. According to the National Cancer Institute, CBD can be a safeguard from the ill-effects of different forms of cancer including colon, breast and lung cancer.
