When people hear the word cannabis, opinions are, understandably, usually divided. Many instantly think of marijuana, and some are quick to point out that it is still considered illegal in many places. You certainly may not be interested in getting the “high” that other people aim for when they ingest marijuana, but you should know that there is a part of the marijuana plant that is getting more and more popular due to its medical benefits.
CBD or cannabinoids is different from THC, which is the chemical compound of the plant. THC is the one that causes the high, but CBD and particularly cannabis oil is actually manufactured more for medicinal purposes rather than recreational ones. Science has found many benefits in taking cannabis oil regularly as well as other weed products.
Take a read of the five below on why you should consider taking cannabis oil daily.
It can…
Give You Healthy Skin
You might well be hesitant in trying cannabis oil, because you have the belief that it is similar to drugs that cause skin problems in users. But you will be surprised to hear that there are actually many benefits your skin can get from cannabis oil. It can help with acne breakouts and reduce your skin’s inflammation when the breakout happens. It can even help keep your skin looking young, as it can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Relieve Anxiety And Stress
Some would claim that marijuana can actually induce anxiety, but remember that cannabis oil does not contain THC, which is the main ingredient of marijuana. Instead, cannabis oil can actually help relieve you from anxiety and stress. And the great thing about cannabis oil products, such as canabidol, is that they are a more natural and safer alternative to antidepressants, which may have harmful side effects in the long run.
Help With Arthritis
A study was actually published that tried to find out whether CBD could have any effect on those with arthritis. The study was of course done on mice, who were injected in order to show the symptoms of arthritis. When that happened, they gave the mice some cannabis oil and found that throughout the treatment, the arthritis in the mice had stopped from progressing.
Help Treat Insomnia
Are you having a hard time sleeping? Apparently, taking some cannabis oil before you go bed can help you sleep more peacefully. Because the product helps reduce the feelings of anxiety and stress, people who take it are not only able to get to sleep faster, but they are also able to achieve a deeper sleep and are not restless when they take a rest.
Be A Pain Reliever
It is inevitable that people experience physical pain at some points throughout their lives. It might be a migraine or chronic pain from an injury, that’s why many people take marijuana to relieve themselves of this pain. But you should know that most of the pain-lessening effects of marijuana are actually from cannabinoids, which is what composes cannabis oil. You can apply it topically or ingest it and you will see that your pain will lessen drastically.
