1. Pain Relief

In 2900 BC, cannabis began to be used for pain relief. Scientific research has found that it is mainly CBD and other ingredients that work. There is a special system in the human body called the endocannabinoid system (endocannabinoid system), which is responsible for regulating and controlling sleep, appetite, and the immune system. Cannabinoids naturally secreted by the human body react with the nervous system of the human body.

Experimental results on mice showed that mice injected with CBD did not respond as much to wound pain. In another experiment, sciatica and inflammation were also greatly reduced in mice given CBD orally.

In a clinical study of 47 patients with multiple sclerosis, patients who took CBD drugs for a month had significant improvements in pain, walking ability, and muscle spasms.

In another study of 58 patients with rheumatoid arthritis, patients who took CBD had significantly reduced pain during exercise and rest, and their sleep quality was also significantly improved. A clinical study on 20 chronic patients suffering from fibromyalgia showed that the pain level of patients who took CBD decreased by 30%.

2. Increase sleep quality and prevent insomnia

The older people are, the less sustainable deep sleep time will be. However, sleep is the most important activity of human beings. During deep sleep, our brain is rested and detoxified. Therefore, sleep quality plays a strong role in preventing age-related diseases, such as Alzheimer’s and glaucoma. 

Another benefit of CBD is that it has a good sedative and sedative effect, which can well reduce the time of low-quality sleep and prolong the time of deep sleep.

In the first month, the anxiety of 57 patients (79.2%) was significantly relieved, and the sleep quality of 48 patients (66.7%) was significantly improved.

3. Relieve Anxiety and Depression

Anxiety and depression are often treated with drugs developed and manufactured by major pharmaceutical companies, but 9 these drugs are highly prone to side effects such as tiredness, irritability, insomnia, sexual dysfunction, and headaches. 

What’s more serious is that benzodiazepines (Benzodiazepine, BZD, the most common hypnotic and sedative drugs) are addictive and lead to cognitive decline.

The benefit of CBD essential oil is that it has obvious effects on anxiety and depression. In one clinical study, 24 people with social anxiety disorder took either 600 mg of CBD or a placebo before public speaking. Among them, people who took CBD essential oil showed less anxiety, cognitive dysfunction, and discomfort in speech than those who took a placebo.

CBD essential oil has also been used to treat insomnia and anxiety in children suffering from shock-induced stress disorder without unpleasant effects.

CBD has also been shown to have strong antidepressant effects in several scientific experiments on animals. The anti-anxiety and depressive effects of CBD, because can be related to the action of serotonin in the human body, and serotonin is a neurotransmitter that controls mood and social behavior.

4. Can reduce cancer-related symptoms

One of the most common benefits of CBD is that it can also effectively reduce cancer and side effects caused by cancer treatment, such as nausea, vomiting, and pain. In one scientific study, CBD and THC were given to 177 patients suffering from cancer-related pain. 

These people are no longer responding to common painkillers. Among them, patients who took natural extracts containing CBD and THC had more obvious analgesic effects than patients who took only THC. Cancer chemotherapy patients are most likely to have nausea and vomiting, and the effect of CBD on this is also very significant.

Many times, conventional drugs do not respond to the side effects caused by chemotherapy. In a scientific study, of 16 patients undergoing chemotherapy, oral administration of CBD and THC (ratio 1:1) was more effective in suppressing nausea and vomiting than conventional western medicine.

In some laboratory studies, CBD has even been found to have anti-cancer properties. For example, experiments have found that concentrated CBD can kill human breast cancer cells. Another experiment on mice found that CBD can inhibit the spread of malignant breast cancer cells. It is a pity that these two experiments are only studies in test tubes and animals, and more experiments may be needed for the actual effect on the human body.

5. Eliminate acne

9% of people in the world have acne and acne problems. Scientific studies have found that CBD can fight infections and inhibit sebum secretion, thus eliminating acne and acne.

6. Neuroprotective effect

Researchers have discovered that CBD can interact with the endocannabinoid system and other brain signaling systems in the human body, so it has a positive effect on patients with neurological disorders.

There has been a lot of research on the use of CBD to treat epilepsy (claws) and multiple sclerosis. In particular, drugs have been developed for the treatment of epilepsy and have been approved by the FDA.

Sativex, a spray containing CBD and THC, is safe and effective in reducing muscle cramps in people with multiple sclerosis. In a clinical study, 207 of 276 patients took Sativex to reduce muscle cramps.

In another clinical study, after 214 patients with severe epilepsy took CBD essential oil, their seizures were reduced by 36.5%. Another study found that CBD essential oil can significantly reduce seizures in children with Dravet syndrome (a complex childhood epilepsy). However, some of these clinical patients had negative reactions such as convulsions, fever, or diarrhea.

7. Good for heart health

A clinical trial of 10 healthy men found that taking 600mg of CBD essential oil lowered blood pressure compared to a placebo. In the experiment, these men were given a stress test that easily raised blood pressure, but those who took CBD essential oil once had a significantly lower blood pressure rise]. CBD itself reduces stress and anxiety, which should be why it helps lower blood pressure.

In addition, multiple experiments on animals have found that CBD has strong antioxidant and stress-reducing effects, so it can effectively reduce heart disease-related infection and cell death. A study gave CBD to rats with diabetes and heart disease, and CBD can reduce oxidative stress and prevent heart damage.
