What is CBD?

CBD (cannabidiol) is the central cannabinoid found in cannabis and industrial hemp. Research has concluded that, in a moderate dose, CBD can have many health benefits. If you're worried that it can make you high, then don't worry! CBD doesn’t have any psychoactive effects on the brain.

CBD can affect your serotonin levels – the neurotransmitter that plays a huge role in mood disorders. Some clinical trials have revealed that CBD oil is effective for a wide range of conditions, from chronic pain, multiple sclerosis, and Alzheimer’s disease to depression, stress, and anxiety. Furthermore, it can lower blood pressure and act as a natural anti-inflammatory supplement.

CBD may prove to be an effective treatment for a wide range of psychological conditions and brain disorders such as:

  • Post-traumatic stress disorder
  • Generalized anxiety disorder
  • Social anxiety
  • Depression
  • Insomnia
  • Stress

Neurochemistry and CBD

Did you know that the human body has a built-in system designed just for processing cannabinoids? It’s called ‘the endocannabinoid system’ and it plays a major role the body’s ability to maintain a healthy inner balance (homeostasis). This means CBD oil and other derived supplements can regulate sleep, appetite, mood, and consequently the level of anxiety we might be experiencing at a given moment.

Cannabidiol works just like SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) – a category of psychiatric drugs specifically designed for anxiety and depression. By bringing your serotonin to normal levels, CBD-based supplements can significantly reduce the symptoms of anxiety.

All in all, products derived from marijuana, cannabis, or hemp plant (ex. CBD oil, hemp oil, cannabis oil, and many more) can be an effective treatment for mood disorders like anxiety and depression.

But just to be 100% safe, make sure to consult a your doctor before you decide to use CBD oil for anxiety or any other condition.
