Cannabidiol, or CBD, has many benefits, medically and holistically.
"Am I going to get high?"
This is the first thing many people ask. The answer is no. The CBD oils that we use come from Colorado Hemp Solutions. Legally, their products can not contain more than 0.3% THC, and this is confirmed by the US Department of Agriculture as well as 3rd party testing labs.
So, how does CBD work?
The CBD receptors (known as CB2) are part of the endocannabinoid system, which is the physiological system that helps the homeostatic functions within the central nervous system. This includes maintenance of bodily functions, pain, inflammation, and the immune system.
CB2 receptors are found in nerve and immune cells in just about every organ. CBD binds to CB2 receptors as well as TRPV1 receptors. Damaged tissues sensitize TRPV1 to its chemical and physical stimuli. Adding massage further benefits the stimulation of TRPV1 activity and has a positive influence on the CB2 receptors, which helps alleviate inflammation and pain.
All of the health/medical benefits of CBD come down to how it interacts with the endocannabinoid system in the body. This system is responsible for regulating a great deal of important factors in our bodies, including pain, immune system, sleep, memory and even appetite.
The endocannabinoid system consists of CB1 and CB2 receptors. CB1 receptors are primarily found in the brain, while CB2 receptors are abundantly found all over the body. THC binds to CB1 receptors, which causes a "high", while CBD binds to CB2 receptors, which are found in nerve and immune cells in just about every organ.
