CBD stimulates your body’s natural cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2, thus helping your body find balance. When incorporated into our daily routine CBD is an integrative health option that many of us seek. Research has shown that CBD can help to:
• Positively impact depression by stimulating Anandamide or the known “bliss molecule” which helps regulate our emotions.
CBD Basics
Hemp-derived cannabidiol (CBD) is not marijuana, it will not get you high, and you don’t need a prescription. CBD is non-habit forming and is not addictive as it does not release chemicals in the brain that cause physical dependence and therefore does not cause withdrawal symptoms.
• Reduce inflammation by blocking the release of compounds that trigger inflammation- providing pain relief, alleviating intestinal inflammation disorders, reducing migraines, and protecting against type 1 diabetes.

• Control or decrease anxiety and PTSD behaviors and symptoms by altering serotonin and dopamine production.
• Block the spread of certain types of cancer by promoting the destruction of cancer cells and suppressing their growth.
• Decrease spasticity in movement disorders; the FDA has approved a pharmaceutical form of CBD for seizure disorders such as Lennox-Gastaut syndrome and Dravet syndrome.
• Reduce inflammatory skin diseases and scarring, including acne.
• Reduce nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy.
• Improve a number of sleep disorders including insomnia.
