CBD And Your Brain

As more states move away from prohibition of cannabis more questions are being asked about the effects cannabis has on the human body. Since marijuana is stored in fat cells, it is often present in the body for CBD oil weeks at a time. Unlike THC however, cannabidoil does not produce the psychoactive effect that has become commonly associated with marijuana nor many of the other symptoms. In a similar study, very high CBD doses (600 mg) had a sedative effect, but in subjects with insomnia, much lower doses of 160 mg reduced sleep disruption and increased total sleep duration.

The THC-CBD extract was used in conjunction with opioids This study revealed that using the extract provided more effective pain relief than using the opioids alone. Strict export restrictions on products sourced from some other countries will continue to impact the supply of CBD products in New Zealand. Different CBD products may prove more beneficial than others.

A recent study found that disorders that fall under the spectrum of anxiety cost the country over $42 billion each year – that is around one-third of the total amount spent on mental health each year. Helpful, but, so far at least, it doesn’t seem that CBDs can replace opioids or substantially reduce pain for all chronic pain patients.
