CBD for Women, the Health Benefits

Why CBD for women? Women's health concerns are faced with gender specific issues everyday. There has also been an increasing trend towards using more natural and organic remedies over traditional pharmaceutical options. These two factors combined are the reason many women are taking a look at using CBD oil products to find relief.

What is CBD?

CBD stands for cannabidiol, and is one of over 100 non psychoactive cannabinoids found in the industrial hemp plant. Cannabinoids are believed to work directly within the bodies endocannabinoid system to help reduce inflammation and keep the body functioning at optimal levels. CBD is made from the extract of the flowers, leaves, stems, and stalks of the hemp plant, which is manufactured into a hemp extract. This hemp extract is the added to numerous products designed to be taken orally, or applied topically.

Is CBD Oil Legal?

The passage of the 2018 Farm bill allowed for industrial hemp with a THC content of less than 0.3% THC to be legal on a federal level. Products contain a higher concentration of THC or marijuana products do not fall under this guideline. These cannabis plant products usually require a prescription from a health care professional.

 Wellness with CBD

The most common areas women are seeking benefits from hemp derived CBD products are:

Mood Issues

There are many different condition's that fall into this category, anxiety, depression, stress, to name a few. In fact mental health has become a nationwide problem, and trying to find natural or homeopathic remedies for relief are sparse.

While CBD has not been FDA approved as a cure or any mental health condition, feedback from current CBD users tells of many benefits such as a more relaxed mood and calmer overall feeling of wellbeing.

For many women who wear multiple hats from mother, to head of household, these days as educator, and care givers, the activities of daily living can sometimes be overwhelming, and natural relief from CBD may have a positive impact.
