Todays’ blog will examine the science supporting the hypothesis that cannabinoids can be used in the prevention of the disease, to determine if the hype is real.
While no medical journal in their right mind would exclusively call for the use of plant medicine over vaccinations, at the risk of impending doom from pharmaceutical giants, the research speaks for itself. Harness the power of mother nature- or become another Fox News statistic.
CBD is an exciting new integrative, plant-based, sustainable option for those struggling with any of the aforementioned chronic conditions, as well as many more. By exploring the science behind CBD’s interaction with neurotransmitters we are becoming increasingly less dependent on pharmaceuticals and more enlightened about the options that come from nature.
CBD has the ability to bind a variety of neurotransmitter receptors in the brain and nervous system and has a varied array of effects. This allows for potentially new treatment methods that could be able to complement current therapies and replace options are not proving effective; or carry a laundry list of side effects.
Today’s blog will focus on the endocannabinoid system and its mechanism as a bridge between the bacteria and the body itself – especially in the relay to communication with the brain – a subject that has received a distinct lack of attention outside of scientific journals.
As in any system, imbalance causes problems. Humans need a steady stream of bacteria to maintain a healthy gut microbiome, these bacteria help break down the foods we eat and allow nutrients to be readily absorbed in the digestive tract. Other mitigating factors that influence the microbiome are exercise, diet, pharmaceuticals, and the consumption of cannabis or hemp.
We will let you guess which of these factors will result in a healthy gut biome vs. one considered imbalanced, or impaired.
