Consume CBD to relieve anxiety?
15 to 20% of French people are affected, at one time or another in their lives, by a form of anxiety. Described as a form of worry, accompanied by a strong feeling of discomfort, anxiety can be disabling in daily life. In the long term, anxiety disorders can cause health problems and affect quality of life.
What is CBD?
CBD , or cannabidiol, is a natural molecule that is part of the large family of cannabinoids. It comes from the hemp plant, also called cannabis sativa.
Unlike THC, which is the most famous component of the plant, CBD does not produce any psychotropic effects and does not cause addiction. Its consumption is therefore legal and authorized in France.
Currently 6 million consumers in France consume cannabidiol. Since CBD is classified as a new molecule by France, we cannot say that it is consumed to combat stress, anxiety, pain or promote good sleep. Cannabidiol is a natural product that does not present any side effects or health hazards.
Does CBD Help Relieve Anxiety?
As seen above, in France, it is not currently authorized to talk about health claims concerning CBD, in the same way as probiotics, CBD is considered a new food and as such does not yet have a recognized health claim, so we cannot say that CBD helps relieve stress and anxiety or that CBD helps reduce pain or that CBD promotes falling asleep. Also, we will not be able to comment on certain studies aimed at demonstrating this. We will therefore focus on the action of CBD and talk about relaxation.
Cannabidiol acts on endocannabinoid receptors associated with anxiety and pain. These play a vital role in maintaining good mental health. Cannabidiol sends a message to the body to ignore stress signals sent by the brain through the nervous system.
CBD can be consumed in the morning, at any time of the day, in fact CBD does not cause drowsiness (except in rare cases and at very high doses). Also this molecule can be a valuable natural well-being ally to promote relaxation throughout the day or in the evening before going to bed.
Please note that cannabidiol does not replace medical treatment prescribed by a healthcare professional for anxiety disorders. However, on medical advice, cannabidiol can be consumed alongside medical treatment.
How to consume CBD to combat anxiety?
As seen previously, we cannot say that CBD helps fight anxiety, CBD is consumed for relaxation. Today, there is a wide choice of CBD-based products. Cannabidiol can be consumed, for example, in the form of infusions, e-liquids, oils, capsules, tablets or even candies.
CBD oil is the most consumed product in France. Due to its simple and 100% natural composition, CBD oil has won over millions of French people who consume it regularly. For perfect effectiveness, CBD oil must be consumed sublingually, that is, under the tongue.
CBD oil drops should be placed directly under the tongue as it is an area rich in blood vessels. The CBD molecule then diffuses quickly into the bloodstream and the receptors of the endocannabinoid system.
That's not all, to feel the relaxing effects of cannabidiol, it is important to choose a good dosage. Délicure offers a CBD calculator that determines, based on the consumer's weight and goals, the number of drops of CBD oil to ingest.
