Explanation Hemp Oils

CBD oils are available as CBD isolate, which means that the only active ingredient they contain is CBD. They are also available in a full-spectrum product or a broad-spectrum product, which means they contain other components.

CBD isolaat:

CBD isolate is the purest form of CBD.

Full-spectrum CBD:

This CBD contains all the phyto-chemicals that naturally occur in the cannabis plant, including various other cannabinoids, terpenes, and oils. It also contains some traces of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive substance in marijuana that causes the "high" effect.

Breed spectrum CBD:

This CBD contains all the phytochemicals in the cannabis plant with little or no THC. Some broad-spectrum CBD may contain traces of THC.

Note that the CBD industry has not clearly defined these terms and that some companies may use them interchangeably to some extent.

Pas op!

A product made with broad-spectrum CBD may contain THC, for example, and may lead to someone not being able to pass a drug test komt.

 

The properties of CBD have the potential to offer health benefits for a wide range of conditions, as is becoming increasingly clear from scientific research. For many, CBD can improve sleep quality and temporarily relieve insomnia. Studies have also shown that it can help alleviate pain and inflammation often caused by arthritis and joint pain. More recent research suggests that CBD may improve heart health. A 2017 study found that CBD can lower blood pressure and may also have therapeutic potential for treating cardiovascular diseases by reducing heart inflammation. There is also promising research that CBD may help maintain bone density and promote the healing of fractures, which can both be points of concern for many seniors.

 

Why should seniors use CBD?

 

CBD is becoming increasingly popular among people seeking natural relief for their health issues or wanting to enhance their overall well-being. In particular, seniors may find relief in using CBD oil, as the potential benefits align with conditions that are common with aging. If you are looking for a natural, plant-based product instead of pharmaceutical remedies, CBD may temporarily alleviate symptoms caused by digestive issues, muscle pain, and other conventional medical problems. Users report that CBD oil causes minimal side effects, is non-toxic and non-addictive, and there are currently no reports of deaths or overdoses associated with CBD. CBD oil can be an excellent alternative for some people, as it is cost-effective, easy to use, and environmentally friendly.

What is CBD oil?

CBD oil can be derived from both hemp and marijuana, but there are some key differences between the two. Unlike marijuana, hemp plants are legal, and therefore all hemp-derived products are legal. Another key difference between hemp-derived CBD oil versus marijuana-derived CBD oil is the cannabinoid content. Unlike marijuana, which contains between 5% and 30% THC, hemp plants are legally not allowed to contain more than 0.05% THC. As a result, hemp-derived CBD oil does not have the intoxicating effect of THC, allowing you to experience the benefits of CBD without the “high” associated with marijuana.

Why are cannabinoids so important for our bodies?

If our body often suffers from stress and cannot produce enough of its own cannabinoids, they can also be taken externally in the form of hemp resin or drops. Phytocannabinoids, which are extracted from the cannabis plant, can bind to the same receptors as endocannabinoids. Therefore, our bodily cells recognize and accept them, and the immune system is brought back into balance.

What are cannabinoids?

An important characteristic of hemp, both Cannabis Sativa (industrial hemp) and Cannabis Indica (Indian hemp), is that it contains substances called cannabinoids. Cannabinoids are lipophilic molecules, soluble in fats, that bind to cannabinoid receptors in cells and induce a variety of cellular changes. In general, cannabinoids are divided into two groups – endocannabinoids, which occur naturally in the human (or animal) body, and phytocannabinoids, which are found in cannabis and other plants.


In terms of usefulness, it is the most interesting cannabinoid for medical purposes after THC (tetrahydrocannabinol). Recent studies, including clinical research, confirm that CBD is just as important as THC and in some cases even more important.

How does this work in our body?

It has now been shown that the endocannabinoid system in the brain is involved in certain processes in the body, including pain, hunger, blood pressure and movement. Endocannabinoids are cannabinoids that our body can produce itself and can activate cannabinoid receptors on cell membranes. They are named after the cannabinoids in cannabis because their chemical structure is very similar. There is increasing evidence that the endocannabinoid system also plays an important role in controlling certain brain functions, such as memory, attention and impulsiveness. Endocannabinoids work, among other things, as neuromodulators that inhibit or stimulate the release of other neurotransmitters such as GABA and glutamate.

How to extract CBD?

What exactly does it mean when you see "hemp extract" on the label of cbd oil? CBD production begins with the process of extraction from the cannabis plant. Several extraction methods can be used to convert hemp into CBD products, but the quality of the extraction varies.
The CO2 process is the most commonly used method for CBD oil and provides a high-quality extraction. It is performed by heating CO2 and diffusing it through the hemp plant to extract the oil.
Extraction then leads to the many methods of bottling and consumption, vape juice, CBD oil infused coffee and beer, gummies, massage oils, and pet treats. You can ingest the oil by mixing it with other drinks and liquids or simply placing a few drops on your tongue. Gummies are also very popular, and many people give their pets CBD treats to help with anxiety and illness. Topical oils and lotions with CBD can also help relieve sore muscles and joint pain.
Users enjoy CBD oil because it can relieve pain, anxiety, inflammation, nausea, and seizures.
