Everything you need to know about CBD

Before presenting the virtues and benefits of CBD on the body, let's start by presenting its origin. CBD is a plant substance derived from the hemp leaf. It is part of the Cannabinoid family, just like cannabis, the best-known molecule produced by hemp. But do not panic ! One of the advantages of CBD is that unlike cannabis, it does not contain THC. Consumption of CBD therefore does not produce any psychotropic, intoxicating or high effects. It has no negative effects on the body and is not considered a toxic substance or narcotic.

Consuming CBD is therefore legal and non-addictive. For a long time, scientists have been studying its therapeutic potential which has already proven itself. Indeed, CBD has many benefits for metabolism and the human body. Its natural benefits would have an action on physical and mental pain.

The main benefits of CBD for the body :

• reduction in stress and anxiety
• pain reduction
• reduced cancer risk
• improved mood
• immune system support
• reduction of sleep disorders
• reduction in depression
• arthritis prevention
• reduction of certain skin diseases

CBD to reduce insomnia and sleep disorders

Having quality sleep is essential for maintaining a healthy metabolism. For an adult, doctors recommend sleeping about 7 to 9 hours per night, with regular bedtimes and waking up times. Nights that are too short or disrupted can cause problems such as mood disorders, significant irritability or even reduced alertness. In the long term, lack of sleep can even cause depressive disorder or learning difficulties.

It is therefore essential to sleep well, but sometimes factors can prevent you from falling asleep. Stress, tension and anxiety increase at bedtime, which can lead to difficulty falling asleep and waking up at night. These factors are often accompanied by a mental load, physical and emotional fatigue linked to the lack of restorative sleep.

Sleep better thanks to CBD

CBD is recognized for its relaxing and soothing properties. It can therefore be very useful in cases of sleep disorders. It regulates a general condition and acts on the body quickly. Consuming CBD before going to bed would have a real impact on the quality of sleep, however, it is neither considered a sedative nor a sleeping pill. It acts on sleep because it has a positive influence on the stress hormone (cortisol) and the happiness hormone (serotonin). By having an impact on these hormones, it therefore manages to reduce the level of stress and anxiety, promoting relaxation and general well-being. Night after night, consumption of CBD could therefore improve the quality of sleep, soothe, de-stress and reduce anxious states.
