About CBD

CBD is an acronym for Cannabidiol and is one of the many different cannabinoids found in cannabis.

Normally the most famous cannabinoid is THC which is responsible for the psychoactive effect. Basically THC produces what is normally called “HIGH”. On the contrary many researches show that CBD doesn’t create any psychoactive effect but it still provides interesting results.

That’s why it became really appealing even to people who were kind of far from the cannabis plant.

CBD is coming from hemp, which is looking like marijuana but is producing smaller flowers and a really small amount of THC.

For this reason normally hemp has been used for many industrial purposes and now is the best source of CBD to provide a completely natural product respecting the cannabis laws worldwide. (CBD and hemp are indeed legal in most of the Countries)

CBD is used for many reasons.

This is because in a certain way, we are already using cannabinoids to regulate part of our body basically all the time… we are just not aware of it!

Our body comes indeed with its own cannabinoid system and a group of endogenous cannabinoid receptors. The two primary endocannabinoid receptors are CB1 and CB2.

CBD is having action on one of the main endocannabinoids: 2-Arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) which is active at both cannabinoid receptors. 2-AG and CBD together are involved in the regulation of many things on our brain and body.

That’s why CBD can be used to improve the quality of our daily life.

This is not just because of a matter of taste. Actually CBD can be consumed in different ways depending on the purpose.

CBD Edibles are to have an effect which lasts longer.

CBD Crystals are to get an immediate relief.

CBD Oils can be consumed orally but also as a topical remedy for the skin for various  uses.

Marijuana laws become less uniform on a global level. If you’d like to know if CBD hemp oil is legal in your country, check with your local authorities.

Using CBD is NOT like a joint or any other THC product.

It will not give you any kind of “HIGH”.

Indeed normally you don’t expect to “feel” the effects of CBD. 

CBD is a really gentle energy, if we take a small amount it can happen to feel a subtle effect of calm and relaxation.

So with CBD it is really easy to still be completely functional and have a productive day.

Let us now focus on the scientifically-backed health benefits of CBD. At the same time, we will also look at the side effects associated with this cannabinoid. 

1. Analgesic Effects 

CBD is an effective option for arthritis-related pain. Combine it with another cannabinoid called THC and you get a good option for multiple sclerosis pain. Furthermore, several studies suggest that CBD is effective in nerve pain and swelling. 

2. Anti-Depressant Effects

What do we do when the anti-depressant meds fail too? 

We search for a novel solution hopelessly!  

And right now, CBD offers an excellent alternative to conventional anxiety treatment. A review study suggests that we can use CBD for:

• Stress disorder
• Mental disorders
• Generalized anxiety

Similarly, another CBD study found a definite improvement in subjects’ mental health. CBD dosage plays a significant role in producing the desired effect on mental health. 

3. Skin Care Effects

Acne is one of the biggest skin challenges right now. 

CBD promises to change the landscape of skincare products. It does so on account of its anti-inflammatory properties. 

Sebum is one of the primary factors responsible for acne. It is an oily secretion that your sebaceous glands produce in the skin. A study suggests that CBD can reduce sebum production and minimize the risk of acne. 

4. Effects on Addiction 

Marijuana has the potential to cure addiction. At first, this sounds like an absurd statement, but not so much when you carefully explore research.

A study investigated CBD’s role as a possible intervention for addictive behaviors. Researchers found that it can be effective for:

• Addiction disorder
• Stress 

This makes us think if this is the beginning of something ground-breaking. Only time can tell. Researchers have high hopes for the future though!

Is really important to consider the quality of your CBD.

If you use CBD not isolated correctly it will still contain a really small percentage of THC. This means that if you consume a high amount of a CBD product produced in such a way you might have risks with a drug test (because of the THC found in these).

Using pure 99.8% CBD Crystals there are no risks with the drug tests because such quality of CBD doesn’t contain THC.

This basically means that if you regularly have to pass a drug test, it is better for you to stick with pure CBD Crystals!

There is always a risk of side effects when discussing cannabis consumption. CBD products are no exception to this rule. What fuels these concerns is the lack of laws to regulate CBD products. This leads to the flooding of the market with inferior quality products. As a result, we cannot rule out serious complications that come with such products. 

Most common side effects of inferior CBD products are:

• Nausea
• Exhaustion
• Irritation

Good news is that CBD is available in almost all the European Countries and the USA. The bad news is that it hardly matters so long as its legality is uncertain. 

Most of the Countries banned Marijuana focusing most of their attention on THC.

CBD has never been much of a concern for the law because it isn’t possible to get high with it.

Anyway now CBD has become mainstream and product quality varies and matters. Canna Health Amsterdam provides products with an isolated form of CBD 99.8% pure and Broad Spectrum CBD, meaning NO THC is involved at all and Full Spectrum CBD. This is why CBD and all our products are legal in all of the countries where CBD is legal.

You can order high quality CBD products online.
