Infographic: 8 Health Benefits of CBD

in #health7 years ago

Hello, fellow Steemians!
We get a lot of comments telling us that our posts are somewhat long so we decided to try out a new format- infographics! This first infographic we have prepared serves to introduce people to some of the studied health benefits of one of marijuana's most well-known cannabinoids- CBD (cannabidiol).

Introduction to CBD

CBD holds the key to the many medicinal and therapeutic benefits that marijuana has to offer. In fact, the more we learn about CBD, the more likely it seems that it is set out to change the world of medicine as we know it. For many people, the great thing about CBD is that it doesn’t have the psychoactive effects that are found in THC. This makes it ideal for daily use since it won’t affect any of your day-to-day activities. From a medical and legal perspective, this is possibly the most important property of CBD.
Rather than activating the CB1 receptor in our brain, as THC does, CBD works to influence the body by increasing levels of endocannabinoids, which are cannabinoids that our body produces naturally. These endocannabinoids are what activates the receptors in our brain and body. This is why CBD doesn’t provide the feeling of being “high.”
