JULY IS NATIONAL HEMP MONTH
With everything going on in the world right now, we could all use a little help to reduce stress.
Our bodies naturally produce Endocannabinoids, but poor food and lifestyle choices, lack of exercise, and chronic stress like we are all facing during this ongoing health crisis, can disrupt our production, contributing to biological imbalance and conditions such as chronic inflammation, impaired immune response, depression, and anxiety just to name a few.
CBD from Hemp, has multiple health benefits, such as the alleviation of anxiety, depression, stress, and even reduction of inflammation and pain. Unlike THC, CBD has no psychoactive effects, meaning that it does not cause any mind-altering effects. As a stress reducer, CBD appears to function by supporting the body’s response to stress via multiple mechanisms including the regulation of serotonin and by repairing and regenerating areas of the brain damaged by stress and inflammation. Cannabinoid receptors are found throughout the body and are responsible for the balance of several different functions including mood, sleep and appetite. Research suggests that a balanced endocannabinoid system can be helpful for improved overall wellness. I believe that this is one of several safe and effective strategies in helping mitigate the stress we are all facing and improve immune readiness. We are all on a journey unlike any we have experienced before.
Let's make the best choices we can for each other, our families, our community and OUR NATION!
