The real CBD information you need to know!
In the last articles, we focused primarily on news in the world of cannabinoids and the unjustified ban on products with HHC. Today, however, we will return again to cannabidiol. There is a lot of misinformation to be found in the increasingly turbulent waters of the cannabinoid conversation, so let's take a look at the results of several studies that have been conducted in the United States.
In this article we will focus on the work of Professor Laura Stewart. He works at the University of Northern Colorado and in his research for two decades has primarily focused on the effect of physical activity on the human immune system. In recent years, however, she has focused primarily on the connection between CBD and immunity. This is mainly because there is a huge gap between the scientific evidence and society's perception of cannabinoids. In the following lines, we will focus on the knowledge that the professor has acquired during her work in recent years.
Let's get closer to the results of the studies in the following paragraphs!
What is true and what is not?
Laura Stewart got into researching the effects of cannabinoids on the immune system by moving. In 2014, she began living in Colorado, where the recreational use of marijuana became legal that very year. As you probably already know, CBD is the second most researched cannabinoid, after demonized THC. Cannabidiol can be obtained either directly from hemp or, for example, chemically in the laboratory. Opinions and unconfirmed assumptions about the effects and benefits of cannabinoids are often shared in society, but the vast majority of them are not scientifically supported.
However, as far as the proven effects are concerned, we can mention, for example, the very promising scientifically based results from the administration of CBD in the treatment of rare childhood epileptic syndromes (Dravet or Lennox-Gastaut syndrome). In preliminary animal studies and other anecdotal studies, researchers are largely observing improvements in various unpleasant conditions, including anxiety, chronic pain, and insomnia.
A common problem these days is the fact that most sellers try to prove their unbeatable results to potential customers even without supporting evidence. Despite the fact that cannabidiol was discovered in the 40s, it is still an imperfectly researched substance, primarily because of a certain dark cloud that has formed around cannabis over the past few decades. However, it is appropriate to inform the general public about the possible benefits and risks of using cannabinoids.
Research
Professor Stewart conducted the first study between 2016-2019. They focused primarily on the use of cannabinoids associated with physical activity. The professor's team examined both sexes, and the regular physical activity of the subjects was also taken into account. Performance tests consisted of cycling as fast as possible in the laboratory for 30 seconds. Surprisingly, a slight deviation was found in this test, where non-users achieved marginally better results. Apart from this small disparity, the results were overwhelmingly the same. However, because they examined only a small number of subjects, the professor does not consider the results to be statistically significant. However, the discovery of the deviation could be a very interesting finding, for example, for coaches and elite athletes.
The subject of another study was to find out the differences between users and non-users of cannabidiol. This study started in 2021 and in a clinical setting, a group of people used CBD for 8 weeks. During the research, the team observed an effect on the cells of the immune system, which help our defenses. Among other things, they also noted a certain effect on cells that can protect our body against cancer. It is really crucial that these findings were also made during a clinical trial and, finally, these are not just assumptions that are widely circulated on the Internet. Furthermore, it was also found that a difference was found in the morning when CBD users felt more rested than those who did not use the substance.
In the last study we'd like to report, Stewart looked at the potential effect of cannabidiol on healthy people. The main reason for the survey was the interest of a beverage company in introducing a CBD product into their offer. They were interested in the potential impact on the test subjects during regular consumption of this drink. The main interest of the research was to find out whether regular use of CBD would affect physical and mental health, ability to concentrate or cognitive function.
After the end of the research, the results were very positive. None of the observed persons showed a change in their physical or mental health.
The impact of Professor Stewart's work
Thanks to this professor's research, we can not only clinically prove how the human body actually reacts to CBD, but also that it is safe to use. Apart from these facts, based on her work, they founded a completely new Center for Complementary Health and Integrative Physiology (CHIPC). This is an institute that will mainly deal with research on natural substances, thereby helping cannabinoids and other substances to be better, and most importantly, scientifically researched. In the following study, the professor wants to deal with the effect of CBD use on retired soldiers.
How will it continue?
Hemp is a very interesting and still relatively unexplored plant, as far as all its benefits are concerned. It is therefore very important that similar institutions pay attention to this plant and have the space to find out what potential it actually has to affect physical and mental health.
