WHAT IS CBD

CBD is a short form of cannabidiol whose popularity has been on increase since it has been discovered for its medicinal purposes.

The various types of cannabinoids are CBD, CBC,CBN,CBG,CBT & THC. Its important to pick a CBD Cream that has as many Cannabinoids as possible.

HOW CBD WORKS

When cannabinoids are attached to certain receptors in human body, they show the positive results. We must be aware that human body also  produces cannabinoids but on its own. It also contains two receptors, CB1 and CB2, these two are specially for cannabinoids. The CB1 receptors are mainly present in the brain and they deal with the coordination ,movement, pain, emotions, mood, thinking, appetite, memories and other functions in the body. CB2 receptors are common in immune system and CBD prefers to get attached to them only. Since the THC binds to CB1  but CBD also changes the shape of CB1 so that THC wo

uld not be possibly coming in contact with it directly.  At high concentrations, CBD directly activates the hydroxytryptamine serotonin receptor, for anti anxiety effect. 

In 1990, endocannabinoid system was discovered by the medical researchers , although its interaction inside the body still remains a matter to discover. However, it is said that this system impacts appetite, mood, memory and sleep and much more. The system consists of three components that are enzymes, receptors and endocannabinoids. CBD can also affect the TRPV1 receptor, which responsible for pain and inflammation.

CBD Cream

As we learn that CBD have many positive effects on our body to improve any of the medical ailment a person is suffering from. The benefits of cannabidiol can be reaped in many ways, and among those many ways, CBD cream is one of those products that is CBD-infused topical. CBD-infused topical also include lotions, salves, cream or transdermal patches that are applied on the skin for relief.  When CBD is applied topically applied, it penetrates deeper into the skin which reduces pain and inflammation, soothes skin problems, and helps in healing the wound. As the name applies, CBD cream is a cream based topical that contains CBD. It is infused with phytocannabinoid CBD. It can be used to reduce pain and inflammation and may help in other skin disorders when applied topically. As the creams are thicker, so they are more beneficial for the people having dry skin. Also, that the cream absorbs faster so are preferred for muscle pain. They not only benefit the surface of the skin but also below. As when they are applied topically, the CBD penetrates both the dermal and the subdermal layers of skin helping in reducing the pain or inflammation.

As we know that skin can be quite thick, so when CBD cream is applied, it soaks into the skin but it does not mix with the bloodstream as it won’t make to the bloodstream. If THC is also present, it interacts with CB1 receptors, and other receptor too and factors like PPAR-gamma and COX-1/2 and TNF- alpha. When these interactions happen, CBD would modulate the pain and inflammatory response.

HOW TO USE CBD CREAM

The form of CBD cream one chooses to use, be it, lotion, balm, salve etc. can be an important decision. Some of these can produce hot or cold sensation in addition to the relief they provide. It is important to locate the area of discomfort or pain before applying the cream. As we say find the source of your pain and rest the cream will do. In general, using CBD infused cream can be very easy. As the user would locate the place where the pain or discomfort is being sensed, it would be simple to apply the topical around the affected area. Like we apply a moisturizer, the same way CBD topical too is applied. Although the dosage should be administered. It is necessary to find out how many milligrams of CBD are in the topical so that it would be known if it is going to give relief to the user. If the amount of CBD is less, the effect will less but if the topical is containing higher amount of CBD, the effect would be much more satisfying. There are no side effects seen when we apply topical infused with hemp-derived CBD.

THINGS TO BE REMEMBER WHILE APPLYING CBD CREAM

• Wash the area with warm water and wipe them neatly. It removes dirt and opens pores ensuring more pain relief to the person.
