Complete CBD Researches: How CBD oil affect your health

Because the compound reduces inflammation in the body, it shows promise in treating a wide variety of pain-associated and inflammatory disorders. Some of the ways it achieves this includes:

– Decreasing the dominance of Th1 and Th2. A study in asthma patients shows that Th1 and Th2 amounts reduced significantly after the administration of the compound.

– Reducing Th17. This helps patients who particularly suffer from autoimmune diseases.

– Reducing the growth and development of neutrophils (these are defensive cells that are supposed to self-destruct after a short lifespan to reduce chances of inflammation), as well as MIP-1 (Macrophage Inflammatory Protein-1).

CBD, in addition to other compounds in cannabis, has an effect of preventing tumours as well as enhancing standard treatments. In fact, according to a 2006 study, CBD proves to stop cancer cells in multiple cervical cancer cells and multiplying cell deaths from colon cancer and leukaemia.

Another aspect that leads to the speculation of the compound as an antitumor agent is its prevention of human glioma invasion and cell growth. This leads to the compound becoming promising in terms of treating prostate and breast cancer, in addition to enhancing the work of conventional antitumor drugs and reducing pain associated with cancer treatments.

A summary of its anti-cancer benefits includes:
– Assisting LAK (lymphokine-activated killer) cells to destroy cancer cells efficiently and quickly
– Reducing the ability of cancer cells to generate energy, and this leads to their death
– The compound blocks the signalling of CPR55, leading to the reduction of cancer cells production.

Among the many concerns of advanced age is the death of brain cells, which leads to memory loss and increasing chances of getting degenerative conditions. The death of brain cells is mostly due to high levels of a chemical, neurotransmitter glutamate, as well as increase in levels of ROS (radical oxygen species) in the brain.

CBD acts to reduce the levels of these chemicals, therefore preventing brain cell death. This is also because it has higher antioxidant activities compared to Vitamin E or C, and this protects the brain cells from toxicity caused by beta-amyloid – this means it is possible to use it as a therapy in Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s conditions.

Another advantage of using this drug is its provision of possible relief in multiple sclerosis patients. This is because the body tolerates a combination of THC and CBD very well, and this is a possible treatment for cases such as sleep disturbances, muscle tightness, loss of bladder control and pain.

CBD might be a therapy for epilepsy, especially the strain that resists treatment. In fact, a 2013 survey of parents who had children with the condition reported that the frequency of seizures reduced significantly (as much as 50%) while taking CBD. The sole side effects were fatigue and drowsiness, though the children experienced increasing alertness, better sleep quality and mood.

Since the compound does not leave very harmful side effects, it may be useful in treating and managing schizophrenic patients because of its similar effects to similar antipsychotic drugs – studies are yet to conclude on the mechanism, however.

CBD, in low doses (in rats as a study), proves to reduce cases of nausea and vomiting effects that high drug doses cause, but the reverse is true – in high doses, it can increase nausea and vomiting. In humans however, more studies on the effects of the drug is required to reach a conclusive answer.
In the case of appetite however, CBD shows to improve appetite through its binding action to cannabinoid receptors in the body, and well as reducing sensitivities to certain foods.

You may know a person with skin conditions such as eczema and acne. However, did you know CBD could act as an effective management compound?
This is due to its anti-inflammatory properties, which act to soothe itchiness, redness and swollen skin areas. Topical application is the most popular method, regardless of whether the CBD oil is undiluted or diluted – this will be dependent on the severity of the skin problem.

Studies also reveal that CBD oil is very good for your body’s circulatory system. It works to improve the vaso-relaxation of the arteries, therefore protecting them from vascular damage that inflammation causes (mostly in very high glucose levels). However, the dosage it needs to achieve this in the body is not conclusive.
