*Lately, we’ve been catching glimpses of different posts on social media about cannabidiol (CBD) oil. There have been a number of comments sharing their views and claims that it is what people of today’s world need. Its popularity is overwhelming and here’s why:

What Is CBD Oil?

One of the misconceptions about CBD Oil is its equivalence to marijuana or the belief that it can get a person high. Truth is, it comes from the extract of the hemp plant – one of the varieties of the cannabis family and is said to have a minimal amount of THC (read more). Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the constituent responsible for making a person intoxicated or high.

Overgeneralizing that CBD Oil contains THC is nothing but an impractical myth. There are some CBD oil products that don’t have THC but there are also others that do not have it. Let’s find out in the succeeding points.

How Does It Work?

There are three identified spectrums of CBD oil.

  • Full-spectrum CBD

It generally stands for itself. It is in full spectrum because it holds full terpenes and cannabinoids. As per Cheefbotanicals, these two interact with our endocannabinoid system (ECS), it helps regulate our body’s homeostasis. It is recognized as the most effective among the others due to its “entourage effect”.

  • Broad CBD

This contains cannabinoids and terpenes but without THC. Its entourage effect would obviously be limited due to the absence of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).

  • CBD Isolate

Terpenes and cannabinoids are no longer added in CBD Isolate. There would be no entourage effect, but it would still regulate our body’s homeostasis.

Why Is It So Popular?

A number of famous celebrities and artists – such as Kristen Bell, Drake, Jay-Z, and more – are promoting the use of CBD Oil. It has become popular not just because of those famous people advocating it but because of its extensive use and beneficial effects.

To mention, it can remedy pain, anxiety, seizure, and inflammation. It has also been regarded as a great medication for it provides immediate relief without a person experiencing the psychoactive effects of THC. Besides, it can be added to drinks, food, or vape pens.

What Are Its Benefits?

This would not become a trend or subject of arguments if it does not prove promising effects to our body.

Here are some of its benefits:

What Do Experts Say About CBD Oil?

For the past few years, health benefits of CBD Oil have prompted arguments and tons of research. Here are some of the findings.

WHO released a report in 2017 that talks about how CBD manifests effective treatment for epilepsy. More so, it can be used as a treatment for some medical conditions. There were no health-related problems reported with regard to the use of pure CBD.

The FDA has approved the use of CBD Oil in treating epilepsy. This was also responded by the Epilepsy Foundation agreeing to the fact that it does not induce psychoactive effects and manifests positive effects on parts of our body systems.

Meanwhile, the Muscular Dystrophy Association expressed that, surprisingly, CBD can be helpful in restoring muscle fibers. It may also prevent some skeletal muscle diseases.

Is It Safe?

Reading the above details might have gotten you thinking that CBD Oil is the dream! However, as we all know, nothing and no one is perfect in this world. Even the nicest person in the world would still have a minus side. And so does CBD Oil.

Though its different benefits have been showing signs of usefulness, still it has some risks.  People using it may experience side effects such as:

  • having a dry mouth
  • experiencing diarrhea
  • loss of appetite
  • drowsiness; and
  • fatigue

Plus, it carries another risk when you’re taking other medications.

Final Thoughts

I know that with the hype CBD Oil is creating it seems that the current becomes unbearable and we just want to end, as soon as possible, the pain we have been enduring. But always remember that safety should come first. So, make sure to seek advice from your doctor before yearning for its wondrous benefits.
