Can CBD Help with Pain?

By Kevin Spitler, Co-Ownner and Tiffany Demoe, Co-Owner

Living in Florida provides abundant fair weather for all residents throughout the entire year. By way of good weather, the young and old alike are much more active. In our sunshine state, older individuals are golfing, playing tennis, pickleball, kayaking, swimming, and the list goes on and on; but with all of that healthy activity, we’re more prone to injury and wear and tear.

In the U.S., over 100 million people reportedly suffer from some form of chronic pain. Living with pain on a daily basis can become intolerable, and for this reason, many people suffer from addiction to pain medications, but there is another way to fight the discomfort on a natural level.

CBD derived from hemp can significantly help many individuals with chronic pain. Our brain and nerve cells have cannabinoid receptors, so our bodies naturally react to CBD. The structure of CBD interacts directly with our cells. Our natural endocannabinoid system works synergistically with it, creating a multitude of beneficial reactions in the body. The endocannabinoid cells have tiny receptors that take in chemicals and produce responses. This natural system in our bodies regulates things like pain-reception, mood, sleeping, immunity, pleasure, memory, and much more.

CBD Science
There are many benefits to taking daily CBD supplements from hemp oil products, but the most exciting among them is that they enhance the body’s own endocannabinoid system (ECS), increasing the body’s ability to maintain balance. When the ECS is supplemented in this way, it is able to function more efficiently, optimizing the body’s performance. Essential functions like sleep, mood, appetite, inflammation, immune function, and bone deposition are all impacted by the ECS.

Cannabinoids are a class of chemical compounds produced by the cannabis plant. There are over 70 presently discovered cannabinoids, which are primarily responsible for the effects cannabis has on the body. Common cannabinoids include tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabidiol (CBD), cannabinol (CBN), and cannabigerol (CBG). These cannabinoids act on receptors located in our cells as part of the ECS and modulate the release of neurotransmitters. CB1 receptors are mostly located in the central nervous system, and CB2 receptors are found mainly throughout the peripheral nervous system.

Hemp oil also provides the body with several beneficial nutrients, like minerals, omega-3 fatty acids, flavonoids, and terpenes. Adding these nutrients to your daily routine is another reason to add a hemp oil supplement to your diet.

Because CBD oil products are categorized as dietary supplements in the United States, My Hemp Solutions complies with the FDA’s guidelines and do not endorse any specific medical benefits of CBD or their products. They encourage you to browse the thousands of reputable studies regarding CBD published online and talk with your doctor to see if a CBD supplement is right for you.

Forms of CBD
CBD oil can be rubbed on the skin, used orally, and can be inhaled as vapor. Topical products are often used for localized conditions such as arthritis and skin irritation. Oral formulations, including capsules, tinctures, and CBD-infused snacks, act systemically throughout the body. Inhaled vapor products offer near-immediate systemic effects and can be easily titrated to affect. Other methods of use include suppositories and time-released transdermal patches. There are ways to use CBD supplements for every preference and lifestyle.

Seniors and CBD
With so many people reaching retirement age or older in this country, it is increasingly important to offer Baby Boomers a healthy supplement to encourage graceful aging. CBD hemp oil can be used positively in the lives of seniors to create balance. This means seniors can breathe easy while benefiting from the positive effects of CBD.
