For just about everyone…aches, pains, anxieties (and countless physical issues) mean a trip to the doctor, a scribble on the prescription notepad, and then a drive to your local pharmacist. Many people skip the first two steps and head to the store for over-the-counter solutions. There’s no shame in it. Everyone is either dealing with or knows someone dealing with a painful ailment that keeps them from enjoying and functioning in everyday life.
  • Well, times are changing. More and more people are discovering the benefits of CBD. CBD is an element of cannabis with natural chemical components that help combat these everyday issues. 
Whether it’s ingested or vaped, here are some examples of everyday issues people are using CBD to fight:

Arthritis

Believe it or not, there are over 100 different types of arthritis you can suffer from. Just like all pains in your body, arthritis sends signals to your brain for you to experience that feeling. By adding CBD into the mix, the natural elements block those signals, causing the suffering person to feel much less pain. Current and new research suggests that CBD in arthritis patients can be as effective, if not more effective, than pharmaceutical narcotics…as well as there are much fewer side effects.

Injured And Strained Muscle Pain

The lower back is always a hotspot when it comes to physical strain. Whether it’s from a profession, sports, or poor genetics, many people suffer from chronic muscle pain. Just like arthritis, this kind of pain sends signals that travel from the point of origin to the brain. The CBD acts as a shield, blocking those signals and dulling the suffering.

Headaches, Stress and Insomnia

Most people reach for ibuprofen or aspirin when they have a headache. This may not be the healthiest of options, especially for someone who suffers from chronic migraines. CBD can reduce the pain of a headache more effectively and quicker than most pharmaceutical drugs. And when it comes to insomnia, CBD is known to reduce stress, which can help your body relax and fall asleep. That being said, using CBD can also be a fantastic option for anxiety.

Every day we learn more and more about the benefits of CBD and how it can be a more realistic option than pharmaceutical narcotics. Aches, pains, insomnia, and stress are just a few reasons to visit your local vape shop or website and figure out the best option.

Just don’t tell your local pharmacist… It will give them nightmares.
