Cannabidiol (commonly known by its acronym CBD) is the oil obtained from the hemp plant, specifically it is found naturally in the cannabis flower (Cannbis Sativa). Although cannabidiol is the most popular, it is only one of the 144 cannabinoids that have been identified in the marijuana plant
This compound can be purchased in Spain completely legally in any CBD Store since it has important therapeutic properties as shown by numerous scientific studies.
The most widespread way to consume CBD is in the form of oil since it is a safe product, obtained naturally. However, it is important to make sure that polluting and harmful substances such as pesticides have not been used during its extraction..
The correct dose of CBD to consume depends on two factors: the percentage of CBD that the oil contains and the physical characteristics of the consumer, since not everyone reacts in the same way to this product. In general terms, it is always recommended to start with a low dose and then increase it until the desired effects are achieved..
Still, we recommend as a warning to always consult a doctor before using CBD-based composite products. Being a substance that we can find in numerous forms and that can be purchased without a prescription, it will be necessary to read the manufacturer's instructions carefully..
Sometimes CBD can be confused with THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) since both compounds have therapeutic properties, however in the case of THC, the psychoactive component must be added, which can cause a sensation of intoxication or dizziness. For this reason, THC must be blamed for the fact that cannabis is an illegal substance.
On a positive note, thanks to the discoveries in this field, it is possible to grow plants that are high in CBD and low in THC. Therefore, CBD is a good option for those who want to benefit from the therapeutic properties of cannabis but without having to experience its psychoactive effects..
Among the most widespread therapeutic uses of CBD we highlight the following:
Behind some mental disorders such as anxiety and depression there is an imbalance between neurotransmitters. One of the properties of CBD consists in the reestablishment of this balance, helping to alleviate depression and stress..
Insomnia is usually a symptom of both depression and stress and anxiety. Therefore, CBD can help people who suffer from any of these mental disorders to fall asleep, helping them to rest better and, ultimately, improve their energy and quality of life..
It is obvious to point out that CBD can cause drowsiness, for this reason it is not especially suitable for people who for work reasons need to remain alert for long periods of time.
CBD not only has analgesic properties that help reduce pain, but it can also help reduce vomiting and nausea caused by chemotherapy.
CBD has also been shown to have a great ability to lower blood pressure, which reduces the chances of stroke or heart attacks.
