CBD News
CBD has recently been growing in popularity with many people using this more natural remedy to treat a variety of ills. However, it is important to have some knowledge about CBD before you decide to use it. Learn more about this below.
What is the CBD?
Cannabis is a type of plant that contains both CBD and THC. While CBD or cannabidiol is a natural remedy that can be helpful in treating pain, it can easily be confused with THC and marijuana. Marijuana is a species of cannabis plant that contains very little CBD, but has a lot of THC, which is the chemical that makes people feel high. Users who are looking for pain relief, as well as help with anxiety, nausea, and more, without the high need to look for other types of cannabis plants that have little or no THC and higher concentrations of CBD.
Is CBD Dangerous?
While CBD is not an addictive or habit-forming drug, that does not mean it is the perfect solution for treating everything. There are some side effects that can be associated with CBD such as fatigue, dry mouth, diarrhea, low blood pressure, liver problems, appetite changes, and weight changes.
Another important thing to note is that CBD will not cure everything. Many people assume that CBD is good for more than has actually been proven. While many users have treated pain, anxiety, and nausea with CBD, some studies suggest that it is the THC in marijuana that actually helps with some of these ailments. Unfortunately, unlike CBD, THC can be addictive. Reach out to us at United Recovery Project when you know someone that needs help with drug addiction recovery.
