Cannabis for your Health

#Cannabis products are becoming more and more popular, with different medicinal or other properties that can definitely be a bit of a problem. One may wonder though which one is right for you. While this does vary from each person to the next, it does involve whether or not you need #CBD or #THC.

 

CBD or THC?

When you’re looking at dispensaries, you’ve got these two compounds. They do have benefits that do overlap, but the terpenes, other #cannabinoids and the like are usually not the main focus. There are medicinal benefits for both of these that we’ll go into here.

 

The primary difference between both of these is that one gets you high, and the other one does not, but basically offers the same therapeutic benefits without the intoxicating results from this. They’re made up of two kinds of atoms of oxygen, and then 21 carbon atoms, and 30 hydrogen atoms, all of which are pretty common.

 

This is something that is arranged in differ ways, and they affect the #neurotransmitters in different ways. But they do offer benefits for different reasons, and they can be therapeutic for you as well.

 

Benefits of THC

 

THC is great at for the high reasons, and while it is a psychoactive, there are other reasons why people really like THC as a compound, and it’s something that’s celebrated.

For starters, it’s great for pain relief. This is great for activating the pain pathways, preventing these signals from getting overwhelming, and they can be a replacement for very addictive opioids as well.

 

It’s also great for anxiety. It calms down those with autism when people feel overstimulated and it can be good for acute anxiety too.

 

It does naturally relax the muscles, giving you a lot of benefits, and it can be good for muscle cramps, insomnia, and even MS in some cases.

 

Finally, it’s good for glaucoma, which is a condition that affects vision and your optic nerve. It does lower the intraocular pressure within the eye, especially those with #glaucoma, and is essential for the management of this condition in a lot of cases too.

 

CBD Benefits

 

There are other benefits that come with CBD a swell, which we’ll go over here.

 

The most common is that it’s really good for inflammation and can be used as a replacement for usual pain relief meds such as ibuprofen and the like. It’s also good for those who deal with constant inflammatory conditions. They usually are safer than NSAID, which do cause kidney and liver damage over a long period of time.

 

Cannabis also helps with #stress and #anxiety. This is great for sort-term anxiety, since it can help with relaxing chronic stress and the like, and it does work well. The exact mechanism is still something looked at.

 

Finally, #diabetes is another thing it helps with. It does help with the need to gorge on food, and it was found that diabetes along with obesity were actually a third lower than those users who didn’t use this. While there may be munchies with THC, that’s not the case with those that take pure CBD products.

With anything though, you should definitely talk to your doctor and see if it’s right for you.

 

Understanding the #health differences of this is very important, and it does offer a variety of amazing health benefits that can be good for those users, and it can be a great way to ensure that you’re taking care of your mind and body, and from there are also treating yourself as well for the conditions you have.
