A recent article by Organic Authority explains what CBD oil is, what it can be used for, the “right” amount to take, and more.
What Is CBD Oil?
From Organic Authority:
“Cannabidiol (CBD) oil is a compound found in cannabis sativa plants. Both marijuana and hemp are varieties of cannabis sativa. The difference between marijuana and hemp is that marijuana has high concentrations of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). THC is a psychotropic substance—in other words, THC is the compound in marijuana that gets you high. By contrast, hemp has very low concentrations of THC. Both marijuana and hemp contain CBD, though it is more concentrated in hemp plants. So, although it comes from either hemp or marijuana plants, CBD oil is not psychoactive and does not give users a high.”
What can CBD Oil be used for?
From Organic Authority:
“Although CBD oil is not currently approved to treat any condition, promising research into the medical benefits of CBD is ongoing. “Research shows that CBD benefits include acting as an anti-inflammatory, anticonvulsant, antioxidant, antiemetic, anxiolytic and antipsychotic agent, and is therefore a potential medicine for the treatment of neuroinflammation, epilepsy, oxidative injury, vomiting and nausea, anxiety, and schizophrenia,” says Josh Axe, DNM, CNS, DC, founder of DrAxe.com, best-selling author of “Dirt,” and co-founder of Ancient Nutrition.”
