Fun Facts about CBD Oil

If you keep up with the world of medicine, you have probably heard of Cannabidiol, which is also known as CBD. This compound has gained popularity rather quickly as it is also obtained from the cannabis plant, much like THC. But, it is very different from THC in the way that it is non-psychoactive, doesn’t create the same high and doesn’t have a world of side effects associated with it. CBD oil can be used for treating a dozen of ailments ranging from tumors to seizures. However, there are plenty of other fun facts about this oil that not many people are aware of. Some of the top ones are listed here:

1-     There are two prevalent ingredients in the cannabis plant and CBD oil is one of them, the other one being THC. It is one of two primary ingredients in the cannabis and hemp plant both. You can find it throughout the stalk, seeds as well as flowers of the plant, which enables easy extraction.

2-     CBD oil can work with the body in a natural way. Along with several other ingredients found in the cannabis plant, Cannabidiol can work naturally with the cannabinoid receptor sites in the body, which are part of the endocannabinoid (ECS) system. These are found mostly in the central nervous system and the brain.

3-     Another unique fact about CBD oil is that it is actually helpful in negating the negative effects brought on by THC. The latter has been known to cause paranoia and anxiety, leads to a high and boosts level of stress. In contrast, CBD oil has the opposite effect and is actually being used in the treatment of depression, insomnia, stress and anxiety.

4-     One of the best parts about using CBD oil is that it is completely non-toxic, which means you cannot possibly overdose on it. In addition, there are a number of ways that CBD oil can be consumed. After it has been extracted from the plant, you can cook food in it, take it in the form of drops or even vaporize it for smoking purposes.

5-     An interesting fact about CBD oil is that it is classified as a medicine in the UK. It was previously available as a nutritional supplement, but later classified as a medicine. This simply means that its health benefits are being recognized, which is a significant achievement because recreational use of cannabis is illegal.

6-     CBD oil has also been found useful for the treatment of epilepsy. This is a neurological disorder that causes loss of consciousness and convulsions. CBD is said to have anticonvulsant properties, which have been found beneficial for dealing with inflammation, neurodegenerative disorders and cancer.

7-     Those who find public speaking difficult or have social anxiety will also find CBD oil to be useful. A single dose of the oil can reduce cognitive impairment, anxiety and overall discomfort when you have to speak publicly.

8-     Even pets can be given CBD oil as it can be used for treatment of stress, arthritis, Type 1 diabetes, digestive issues and cancer amongst other things.
