CBD Cannabidiol for allergies

The endocannabinoids are produced by the human body itself. This fact has been known since the 1990s. Little research has been done on what they are used for. Laboratory experiments on mice have shown that the body’s own cannabis-like messenger substances have the anti-inflammatory effect. CBD is therefore becoming more and more known and popular these days. The cannabis-like messenger substances dock to the body exactly where THC docks as an active ingredient in cannabis. The defence reactions of the skin can be regulated with the cannabinoid docking sites. The CBD in marijuana is also its cannabinoid.

What is important for the body with CBD?

For the production of cannabis oil the hemp seeds are an important raw material. In experiments with animals, it was found that nickel allergies are shown when the cannabinoid docking sites are missing. The messenger substances were so often not recognized. If animals have the increased endocannabinoid level, they fight less often with the skin allergy. If the THC solution was brushed directly onto the skin in the animals, then there were fewer symptoms of the allergy.

The scientists therefore produced cannabis ointments, which are used for allergic eczema and for the treatment of contact allergies. Since the dosage of CBD is low, the intoxicating effect is not to be expected. CBD in cannabis oil is therefore effective for skin eczema and this is very good news for many people affected. In principle, this is not a new finding, because such an ointment was already available in pharmacies in the 1930s.

Cannabis extracts have been known for their healing effects for many centuries. One example is the anti-inflammatory effect. The ointment had disappeared from the shelves again, which was due to the ban on marijuana and also to the intoxicating effect of THC (source: https://hanfverband.de/inhalte/cannabis-wirkung-nebenwirkungen-und-risiken). Nowadays, patients fight for cannabis to become medicinal again.

Important information about cannabis

According to studies, cannabis is not only effective against skin eczema, but also stimulates the appetite. This is important for anorexic patients, AIDS patients or patients undergoing chemotherapy. CBD is also effective against allergies and this in the form of liquid, drops or oil. Although the effect of CBD has not been fully researched, it is hoped that it will have pleasing effects. The mechanism of action of cannabidiol has already been described in the literature.

Compared to THC, CBD does not have a psychoactive effect and thus does not cause a change in consciousness. The effect of THC has nothing to do with the state of intoxication. With CBD the effects promise a multiple therapeutic benefit. CBD or also cannabidiol is not yet completely transparent regarding its effects. The current state of knowledge only allows conclusions about possible areas of application. Cannabis could, however, help with various ailments and diseases and these are AIDS, drug addiction, skin diseases, ADHD, autism, asthma, arthritis, arteriosclerosis, anxiety, dementia, multiple sclerosis and pathological stress.

Also possible for CBD is the fight against cardiovascular diseases, glaucoma, firomyalgia, epilepsy, diabetes, depression, Crohn’s disease, cancer and bipolar disorder. Pious must be mentioned BSE, osteoporosis, Parkinson’s disease, obsessive-compulsive disorder, obesity, motion sickness and migraine.
