The Natural Benefits of Hemp Oil for Your Health

Hemp has been a popular natural remedy for many years and has been used by many people. While there is anecdotal evidence showing that this oil can help everything from acne to the progression of heart disease, clinical studies have not proven all of them. Fortunately, there are studies that show the benefits of this oil.

Inflammation

Hemp is full of polyunsaturated fatty acids and this includes omega-3s and omega-6s. This is important because studies have found that adding omega-3s to your diet will help reduce inflammation. This is important because inflammation can contribute to a number of diseases.

These diseases will include heart disease and cancer. However, it is important to note that the study did not directly link hemp oil to any reduction in the risk of these diseases. The study only looked at omega-3s and their anti-inflammatory properties.

Skin Disorders

A number of studies have been done on the link between CBD and various skin conditions. These studies have found that hemp oil works as a potent anti-acne treatment. The study in 2014 showed that the treatment can help with different types of acne.

Another study in 2005 looked into the link between hemp oil and eczema. This was a 20-week study where participants took dietary hemp oil. At the end of the trial period, those taking the hemp oil saw a significant improvement in their eczema symptoms.

A newer study has suggested that hemp oil can make the skin stronger when there are not skin disorders to treat. This study found that hemp oil makes the skin more resistant to fungal and bacterial infections. There was also an indication that the skin was more resistant to viral infections as well.

Menstruation

PMS or premenstrual syndrome has a range of emotional and physical symptoms. A study in 2011 suggests that these symptoms are caused by sensitivity to prolactin at this time. This is believed to be linked to low PGE1 in the body.

This is important when looking at hem oil because the GLA in the oil is known to assist with the production of PGE1. The study done on this found that women who suffered PMS symptoms found they were notably decreased when they took 1 gram of fatty acid. This can be found in hemp oil.

An animal study looked into the effect of hemp oil on menopause. The study, done in 2010, found that hemp seed protected against the complications of menopause. Of course, human studies will be required before this benefit can be confirmed. However, it is the high GLA levels offered by hemp oil that are believed to help.

There are many benefits to CBD that you need to know about. These benefits are linked to the omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids found in the oil. The only issue is the limited number of clinical studies done on hemp oil and this leave most of the benefits as anecdotal.

We always recommend speaking to your GP or medical practitioner before beginning any new course of treatments.
