<br>CBD Oil: What are 9 Proven or Possible Health Benefits? Medically reviewed by Carmen Pope, BPharm. With a forecasted revenue of over 20 billion by 2024, the CBD market is booming.1 But what exactly is CBD and how effective is it? We look at 9 proven or possible health benefits of CBD oil. CBD (short for cannabidiol) is one of over 200 chemical compounds known as cannabinoids that are found in cannabis. Cannabis is a plant, and there are two main types, Cannabis Indica and Cannabis Sativa. Both marijuana and CBD can be derived from both types, but hemp is only derived from Cannabis Sativa. By law, hemp must contain no more than 0.3% THC (the oil in marijuana that gives you a high) to be called hemp, otherwise, growers are at risk of prosecution under federal law. Hemp is a great resource for making 100% biodegradable, environmentally friendly products such as clothing, packaging, biofuel, building materials, and paper.<br>[ymec.com](http://www.ymec.com/products/dssf3e/)

<br>CBD derived from hemp contains no more than 0.3% THC and is legal federally but still illegal under some state laws. Cannabis-derived CBD products, on the other hand, are illegal federally but legal under some state laws. Unlike THC, terraprocbd.net CBD has no psychoactive properties and will not give you a "high". There is no evidence it has any abuse or dependence potential and to date, there is no evidence that it is associated with any serious side effects, according to the World Health Organization. Instead, CBD has been credited with relieving numerous medical conditions, such as epilepsy, anxiety, inflammation, insomnia, and pain. Although "credited" does not mean proven. Because of the historical regulatory landscape, there are hardly any well-conducted trials backing up those claims, although research is expected to ramp up now that laws distinguish between hemp and marijuana. We look at nine medical conditions where CBD may be, or, has already proven to be, beneficial. In June 2018, the FDA approved Epidiolex (a plant-based formulation of CBD) to treat seizures for people 2 years of age and older with Dravet syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS), which are two rare forms of epilepsy.<br>

<br>CBD has also been investigated for use in other forms of treatment-resistant epilepsy, usually in addition to conventional epilepsy medications. CBD can interact with other medications used for epilepsy and some serious side effects have been reported, notably, a decrease in liver function when given to people already taking valproate. Conclusion: CBD is beneficial for treating certain types of epilepsy. Animal studies have shown that CBD has anti-inflammatory effects and works on the endocannabinoid and pain-sensing systems to relieve pain. Unfortunately, few human trials investigating the use of CBD as a single agent to relieve pain exist, with most trials using a combination of CBD and THC to relieve pain. Notably, Health Canada has approved a combination medication that contains both THC and CBD in a 1:1 ratio for the relief of central nerve-related pain in multiple sclerosis, and cancer pain that is unresponsive to optimized opioid therapy. A case series of 47 people with multiple sclerosis reported improvements in pain, walking, and muscle spasms with a combination of CBD and THC.<br>

<br>Animal studies have shown that CBD has a positive effect on serotonin levels in the brain, natural remedy for anxiety and serotonin. Other research (both animal and human) has shown that CBD has anti-inflammatory effects, and it may relieve pain by this mechanism. CBD can interact with other medications used to treat heart conditions or immunosuppressants so you should always talk with your doctor before taking CBD. Conclusion: CBD may be beneficial at relieving pain but no high-quality human studies prove this. Animal studies showed that topical CBD applications relieve pain and inflammation associated with arthritis with few side effects. The topical application of CBD is beneficial because [get TerraPro CBD](http://repo.kaotings.com/hopewhitton791/yetta_1995/wiki/What-are-the-Top-CBD-Deals-with-Happy-Bears-Coupons-Code%3F) is poorly absorbed when taken by mouth and can cause gastrointestinal side effects. Conclusion: Topical CBD may be beneficial at relieving arthritis but no high-quality human studies prove this. What are CBD gummies? Are there any health benefits?
