What is CBD Oil?

October 4, 2019 by Trina

CBD is short for cannabidiol and is a compound found in the cannibis plant. Cannabidiol is a popular natural remedy for many common ailments. There have been numerous studies on CBD’s benefits which indicate it keeps our body balanced and running normally. 

Why is it so popular? CBD Oil is gaining momentum in the health and wellness world, with some scientific studies confirming it may ease symptoms of ailments like chronic pain and anxiety. CBD works like all cannabinoids, which produce effects in the body by attaching to certain receptors. The human body produces certain cannabinoids on its own. CBD Oil can relieve pain and inflammation, may reduce anxiety, depression and alleviate cancer-related symptoms. It may also reduce acne, have neuro-protective properties and can benefit heart health. Though CBD is generally well tolerated and considered safe, it may cause adverse reactions in some people. Before you begin using CBD, discuss it with your doctor. Research on the potential benefits of CBD Oil is ongoing so new therapeutic uses for this natural remedy will be forthcoming as health evidence is produced from scientific studies.

Does CBD produce the same effects as marijuana? The answer is no. Hemp-derived CBD oil is made from high-CBD hemp which comes from the least processed part of the cannibis plant. While hemp and marijuana come from the same plant, the two are very different. THC is the most active ingredient in marijuana and creates the mind-altering “high” when a person smokes it or uses it in cooking. CBD is different. It is NOT psychoactive and does not change a person’s state of mind when they use it. 

How can I buy CBD Oil? CBD is a legal dietary substance and available for purchase across the United States and in over 40 countries around the world. To learn more or purchase CBD Oil locally, please visit us at Body Edge Fitness 6741 Beach Drive SW, Ocean Isle Beach, NC.
