What is Medical Cannabis | CBD OIL?


Medical cannabis is a term used to describe the use of the cannabis plant and its constituent cannabinoids to alleviate symptoms and help people struggling with medical conditions. The products made from the cannabis plant for medical purposes are intended to reduce pain, improve sleep, increase appetite, prevent nausea, and as an anti-treatment for rheumatic conditions. They also have positive effects on glaucoma, nerve protection, and spasm prevention. Cannabis also has an effect on the circulatory system and the respiratory system. There is clinical evidence that cannabis assists in the treatment of man spastic disorders accompanied by pain (such as Multiple Sclerosis, spinal cord damage), nausea (as a result of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, Hepatitis C medication, and HIV/AIDS treatment), chronic pain (especially neuropathic), Post Trauma Syndrome, Irritable Bowel diseases (Colitis and Crohn’s Disease), Glaucoma, rheumatic diseases, and inflammation. It also provides supportive care for HIV/AIDS and cancer patients, especially for appetite stimulation and weight loss prevention, and as a pain reliever.

Cannabis and CBD OIL in the human body


Cannabis has been used by human beings for medicinal purposes for hundreds of years. During the 20th and 21st centuries, researchers have been able to identify some of the active ingredients found in the cannabis plant which give it the unique medicinal properties that help so many patients find relief.

The main active ingredients in the cannabis plant are called cannabinoids. In addition to studying the plant, the human body’s response to cannabis has also been of interest to scientists and they’ve discovered that the active ingredients found in cannabis play important and unique roles in human health. The plant substances that stimulate cannabinoid receptors and that can be found in cannabis plants are called Phytocannabinoids. The most famous cannabinoid is THC or Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol which is also the most psychoactive. Other cannabinoids such as cannabidiol (CBD) Oil and cannabinol (CBN) are also being studied so that researchers can unlock the secrets of their healing properties.

As research has progressed, scientists have discovered some of the ways cannabinoids affect the human body and even discovered that human beings have a special bodily system called the endocannabinoid system. The discovery of the endocannabinoid system and the study of its functions in the body were pioneered by Professor Rephael Mechoulam from the University of Jerusalem. Professor Mechoulam’s research has aided in opening up a new area in biochemistry and the study of the brain related to cannabis. “The endocannabinoid system has been studied using genetic and pharmacological methods. These studies have revealed that cannabinoids act as neuromodulators for a variety of physiological processes, including motor learning, synaptic plasticity, appetite, and pain sensation.” ibid Cannabinoid receptors are believed to be more numerous than any other receptor system and have been discovered throughout the body.

The stimulation of cannabinoid receptors causes a variety of physiologic processes. Researchers have identified two cannabinoid receptors. The first receptor discovered – CB1 – is found mainly in the brain but in recent years has also been found in peripheral tissue. The second receptor identified – CB2 – manifests almost exclusively in cells and organs connected with the immune system and cardiovascular system, its highest concentration being found in the spleen. It is responsible for the anti-inflammatory properties of Cannabis. Many parts of the body contain both CB1 and CB2 receptors and there may be others waiting to be discovered.

Research has shown that cannabis has a significant role in the human body in many different areas including: memory, appetite, pain sensation, stress response, energy balance and metabolism, anxiety, immune functions, thermoregulation, sleep and other systems. The endocannabinoid system is responsible for complex interactions in the immune system, nervous system, and all of the body’s organs and can be understood as a bridge between the mind and body.
