The Life-Changing Benefits of CBD for Seniors

[vc_row wrap_container=”yes”][vc_column][vc_column_text]As we age, our health concerns only seem to multiply. It’s an inconvenient truth of a life well-lived that eventually, you start to really feel it. Modern treatments and medications have advanced to an impressive degree, but they can’t always fix everything. If you’re looking for an all-natural supplement to help manage the symptoms of pain, anxiety, nausea, depression, or other issues, consider the life-changing benefits of CBD for seniors.

What is CBD and How Does It Work?

Cannabidiol, or CBD oil, is extracted from the cannabis plant, the same source from which hemp oil and THC are derived. While that might otherwise give you cause for concern, CBD is not the same as THC. Though molecularly very similar, CBD doesn’t have the same psychoactive effect – meaning it doesn’t make you feel “high” the way THC would. That makes it much safer to use and continue with your life as usual.

After ingestion, CBD is metabolized. From there, it affects receptors that are part of the endocannabinoid system. These receptors, primarily CBD1 and CBD2, help to regulate a range of functions, including sleep, mood, immune system responses, and pain. CBD works to help you maintain homeostasis, a state of balance where these bodily processes work optimally to keep you healthy and comfortable.

What Are the Benefits of CBD for Seniors?

CBD is an increasingly popular supplement for people in every age group because of its reported effectiveness, accessibility, and ease of use. It’s an all-natural substance that you can incorporate easily into your daily vitamin and medication routine. According to a recent report from the World Health Organization, CBD “exhibits no effects indicative of any abuse or dependence potential.” That means it’s non-addictive, so you don’t have to worry about it being habit-forming.

When it comes to medical concerns that affect many seniors, cannabidiol may be able to provide dramatic relief for the pain and discomfort associated with:[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
