CBD’s Role in Treating PTSD

PTSD shows no bias. It affects women in abusive relationships, children in traumatic homes and veterans, post-service. Associated with chronic pain, anxiety, addiction and suicide, PTSD treatment has eluded many of the 3.5 million Americans searching for relief.

Primarily treated with therapy and antidepressants, there’s promising hope for PTSD victims: Cannabidiol (CBD).

A new study from the Frontiers of Pharmacology suggests that CBD is an effective PTSD treatment, delivering acute and long-lasting effects in reducing fear memories.

Improving quality of life without side effects.

• Dr. Philip Blair, is a former military doctor who has seen the positive impact CBD has made on the lives of those with PTSD. From improving quality of sleep to decreasing feelings of pain, CBD Hemp Oil has shown to improve quality of life with no significant side effects.
• Presenting at the recent Cannabis World Congress & Business Expo, Dr. Blair discussed his trial with nine veterans with PTSD and their success with CBD. But before you can understand Dr. Blair’s findings, you must understand what CBD is and how it works.
• CBD Hemp oil is non-psychoactive, it will not get you high. We extract CBD “whole plant hemp oil,” which preserves not only CBD but additionally the full spectrum of other natural plant constituents (terpenes, sugars, flavonoids, and secondary cannabinoids) that are found in all parts of hemp and are believed to work better together with the endocannabinoid system.
• The endocannabinoid system is a series of cannabinoid receptors involved in maintaining the body’s homeostasis, with a strong impact on feelings, mood, pain perception and movement. It is the impact on the body’s endocannabinoid system and neuroreceptors which offer so much promise for PTSD.
