What are the Significant Health Benefits of Cannabis?

Cannabis reduces blood pressure, analyzes and treats anxiety disorders, and combats cancer.

FREMONT, CA: Cannabis is composed of more than 120 compounds called cannabinoids. Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) are two of the most well-known and researched cannabinoids. People often associate cannabis with a "high," while CBD is a non-intoxicating, non-euphoric component found in oils, gummies, drinks, and other products used for medical purposes. 

There's no doubt that CBD has become quite popular and has created a new industry. Despite the fact that researchers are still studying how CBD can be used for medical purposes, a lot of promising results have already been reported. CBD has been proven to benefit health in the following ways. 

Treating anxiety disorders effectively: Anxiety is a prevalent condition that many people have turned to CBD for relief. A preclinical study has shown CBD's potential in treating various anxiety disorders, including GAD, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, OCD, and PTSD.

Inflammation reduction: According to a study by the Rockefeller Institute of Medical Research, CBD helps reduce inflammation and neuropathic pain. 

Reduction of blood pressure: According to a study conducted by JCI Insight in 2017, CBD lowers blood pressure in humans. In addition to reducing resting blood pressure, it also lowered blood pressure in response to mental arithmetic and the cold pressor test.

Keeping drug and alcohol addicts from relapsing: People suffering from drug and alcohol addiction may benefit from CBD, according to a 2018 study. CBD reduced stress-induced cravings, anxiety, and lack of impulse control that often lead to relapse in lab rats. 

Disorders of the gastrointestinal system (GI): CBD and other non-psychoactive cannabinoids can effectively treat gastrointestinal disorders involving irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis, according to recent research. Inflammatory symptoms can be reduced and prevented by CBD's anti-inflammatory properties.

Seizure prevention: A recent study found CBD can reduce symptoms and seizure frequency in patients with epilepsy and other seizure syndromes. CBD has been researched for decades to treat epilepsy and other seizure syndromes. 

Cancer prevention: CBD has been proven to be an effective remedy in alleviating the adverse effects of chemotherapy. Additionally, studies have shown that it can prevent the growth of cervical cancer cells and generate cell death. It also has various anticancer properties that can prevent different types of cancers, treat tumors, and enhance immunity.
