By Rishma • On Cool Tips

Extrac­ted nat­ur­ally from hemp plants, CBD is one of the 113 types of can­nabin­oids that is used for treat­ing a num­ber of health issues. 

Also known as Can­na­bi­d­i­ol, this chem­ic­al com­pound has no psy­cho­act­ive effects which has led to its leg­al­iz­a­tion in vari­ous parts of the world. 

From pain man­age­ment to treat­ing symp­toms of anxi­ety, CBD has a num­ber of real-life applic­a­tions. Reg­u­lar use of CBD makes way for a whole­some life­style and helps to man­age numer­ous health con­di­tions more efficiently. 

How is CBD Useful In Daily Life?

  • CBD can help to man­age stress and related symp­toms like anxi­ety and pan­ic dis­order. Reg­u­lar use can help you to handle things in an effi­cient man­ner and enhance pro­ductiv­ity as well. 
  • Patients who are suf­fer­ing from chron­ic pain due to arth­rit­is can opt for Can­na­bi­d­i­ol. It can help to relieve the symp­toms like muscle stiff­ness, sore­ness and inflammation. 

CBD products like top­ic­al creams, patches and lotions have emerged as pop­u­lar products which can be applied dir­ectly on the pain­ful joints or the affected areas. People can also try tak­ing CBD orally in the form of gum­mies, effects of which last the longest.

  • CBD is a proven immunity boost­er. The anti-inflam­mat­ory prop­er­ties act as immun­osup­press­ants and immunomodulators. 

Whenev­er the immune sys­tem is under­per­form­ing, CBD can help to make it more act­ive. It can also reduce the immune system’s inflam­mat­ory response. 

  • Stud­ies show that over 10–30% adults suf­fer from chron­ic insomnia.

Insom­nia is a com­mon con­sequence of anxi­ety and excess­ive stress. CBD can man­age the root causes and help to get qual­ity sleep every night. 

  • CBD can also enhance the energy levels of the body. It can activ­ate the cells that are respons­ible for mak­ing the body feel tired and slug­gish, and help to regain the focus. 
  • It can also be help­ful in treat­ing the symp­toms and side effects of can­cer and can­cer ther­apy respect­ively. Some of the com­monly noticed symp­toms are naus­ea, loss of appet­ite, dizzi­ness and unusu­al weight loss which can be man­aged effi­ciently by tak­ing CBD in mod­er­ate amounts reg­u­larly. Neuro­path­ic pain and inflam­ma­tion can also be treated by CBD. 

Apart from these, the thera­peut­ic poten­tials of CBD have been real­ized by the med­ic­al industry and a num­ber of researches are going on to find its bene­fits in oth­er aspects. 

CBD Consumption 

When it comes to the con­sump­tion of CBD, there is a lot to state. Espe­cially for new­bies, it is quite dif­fi­cult to choose the right mode of con­sump­tion that will be safe and effect­ive for them. 

The cause of your con­sump­tion can help to decide the meth­od of admin­is­tra­tion. For instance, people who want to get relief from the incess­ant joint and muscle pain can opt for CBD oil or top­ic­al creams. Simply apply­ing it on the sore areas can help to reduce inflammation. 

There are numer­ous oth­er CBD infused products in the mar­ket such as vapes, tinc­tures, lotions, salves, bath bombs, pills and capsules. 

CBD edibles like gum­mies and can­dies, can be taken orally, and are recom­men­ded for people who do not like the dif­fer­ent earthy taste of CBD oil. Gum­mies are also use­ful if you can­not swal­low a pill or a cap­sule and want the effects of CBD to last longer. 
CBD gum­mies are also the cheapest CBD option today and are avail­able in a vari­ety of flavours .

If you are ser­i­ously con­sid­er­ing CBD as an option, then it’s recom­men­ded that you avoid the loc­al market. 

These loc­al CBD brands may not be as safe as some of the well estab­lished  brands like cbd­MD. Made from organ­ic hemp and hav­ing a smooth fla­vour that can calm your nerves, cbd­MD is a pop­u­lar choice for a CBD product accord­ing to the review by experts at Health Care Busi­ness Today.

Can CBD Gummies Make You Sick?

While con­sum­ing CBD edibles, you must remem­ber to take care of the recom­men­ded dosage. 

Till now, there has been no spe­cif­ic dosage of CBD for dif­fer­ent ail­ments. 

You should there­fore start from a low dose and increase it gradu­ally when you start noti­cing the differences. 

Can­dies infused with CBD, oth­er­wise known as CBD gum­mies come in var­ied fla­vours and are the best option for people who dis­like the earthy taste of CBD oil. 

CBD gum­mies is the cheapest and most read­ily avail­able CBD product.

People with anxi­ety and depres­sion can bene­fit from CBD gum­mies. By enhan­cing the sero­ton­in levels, it reg­u­lates the feel­ings of anxi­ety and pre­vents the body from enter­ing a pan­ic mode. 

Gum­mies are a great option for those people who only recently star­ted using CBD as an altern­at­ive treat­ment for their conditions. 

This is because CBD from gum­mies are only absorbed by the body after under­go­ing diges­tion in the stomach.

Also, the easy meth­od of con­sump­tion has made gum­mies one of the most widely sought out CBD products. 

Although CBD gum­mies have no side effects what­so­ever, you can still see a few neg­at­ive effects on your body if you fail to fol­low the prop­er dosage. 

 

  • CBD Gummies And Other Drugs

 

In case you are on cer­tain oth­er med­ic­a­tions and plan­ning to give a shot to CBD, it is bet­ter to have a word with your doc­tor first because the ingredi­ents of the drugs could react with CBD and may affect your health.

All of these can be eas­ily avoided if you con­sume it in the amount advised by your doctor.

 

  • Drugs Which May React With CBD are :

 

  1. Anti­bi­ot­ics and Pain Meds
  2. Anti­histam­ines
  3. Anti­de­press­ants
  4. Anti­mi­cro­bi­als
  5. Blood Thin­ners and Immunosuppressants
  6. Anti­c­an­cer Medicine
  7. Cho­les­ter­ol Bal­an­cing Drugs
  8. Anti­e­pileptic Drugs
  9. Medi­cine for Erectile Dysfunction
  10. Blood Pres­sure Medicine

These drugs inhib­it the CYP3A4 enzyme of the group P450, just like CBD.

While on these med­ic­a­tions, your body can­’t work to meta­bol­ize CBD because the enzyme respons­ible for this is being used up by the oth­er drug.

In both cases, if CBD or any oth­er drug is being pro­cessed by your body too slowly, it can cause adverse side-effects like vomit­ing, dizzi­ness, naus­ea, drowsi­ness, fatigue or diarrhea.

Wrap Up

CBD is used pop­ularly for its numer­ous health benefits.

In recom­men­ded doses, it  is extremely bene­fi­cial, but unsu­per­vised con­sump­tion can be fatal for your liv­er and over­all body health.
