Overlooked Benefits of CBD

June 27, 2018

The cannabidiol, or CBD, in Natural Findings Complete Topical Formula with CBD lacks the “high” effects of the more infamous cannabinoid found in marijuana, THC,  and researchers are continually finding new, natural health applications for this ancient healing balm.

CBD is known to produce anti-anxiety and anti-inflammatory effects when ingested by slowing everything down and calming the user. Those with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are often overcome with anxiety and stress, so patients find relief by using cannabidiol. The antipsychotic benefits provide a stable mental environment for those that need it most.

In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study, 24 smokers were randomly chosen to receive either an inhaler of CBD or a placebo. Participants were asked to take a puff every time they had an urge to puff a cigarette. Over the week, those with placebo inhalers saw no change in their total number of cigarettes consumed, while those were taking CBD saw a nearly 40 percent drop in their intake. Using the inhaler decreased the number of cigarettes without increasing their craving for nicotine, pointing towards a purpose for cannabidiol in the withdrawal process.

In 2012, a group of German researchers published a study in the journal Translational Psychiatry. The potent antipsychotic Amisulpride and CBD were compared between 42 schizophrenia patients. The two treatments were deemed effective, but the short side effect profile of CBD outshined the pharmaceutical option.

A study published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation and the National Institute of Health discovered that CBD can provide treatment for acne. Researchers used cannabis-derived cannabidiol on the human sebaceous glands and came to the conclusion that CBD acts as a highly effective sebostatic and anti-inflammatory agent by inhibiting lipid synthesis.

Natural Findings Complete Topical Formula with CBD also contains aloe vera, rose hip seed oil, MSM, a proprietary blend of therapeutic essential oils, wild-crafted medicinal herbs, nutraceutical botanical extracts, detoxified iodine, complex vitamins and more than 87 minerals and super-antioxidants.
