What’s in your stocking?
The year 2022 is quickly drawing to a close. A year of change, adjustment, and getting back to life as we knew it pre-pandemic. It’s been a challenging year. People are tired. People are overworked. Our country is in a mess. Global warming is real. The war is still taking place. All these external events often have internal consequences, such as stress. This is why we taking a look at CBD for stress.
Stress is a normal physical and mental response to life events. Everyone experiences stress at some point in their lives. Work and family responsibilities, as well as major life events such as a new diagnosis, war, or the death of a loved one, can all cause stress. Stress can be beneficial to your health in short-term situations. It can assist you in dealing with potentially serious situations. Stress causes your body to release hormones that increase your heart rate and breathing rate while preparing your muscles to respond.
However, if your stress response does not shut down and your stress levels remain elevated for much longer than is necessary for survival, it can have a negative impact on your health. Chronic stress can cause a variety of symptoms and have an effect on your overall well-being.
What is Stress?
Irritability, anxiety, depression, headaches and insomnia are all symptoms of chronic stress. According to Healthline.com , The “fight or flight” response is controlled by your central nervous system (CNS). The hypothalamus in your brain sets the ball rolling by telling your adrenal glands to release adrenaline and cortisol stress hormones. These hormones increase your heart rate and send blood to the areas of your body that need it the most in an emergency, such as your muscles, heart, and other vital organs.
When the perceived fear has passed, the hypothalamus should instruct all systems to return to normal. The response will continue if the CNS does not return to normal or if the stressor does not disappear.
Chronic stress is also linked to behaviours like overeating or undereating, alcohol or drug abuse, and social withdrawal. Lucky for you these are all symptoms that are alleviated and managed through the use of CBD.
CBD for Stress
According to some studies, CBD oil can effectively treat stress and anxiety. It accomplishes this by modulating cognitive and physiological functions via the endocannabinoid system, a neural network that is part of the central nervous system.
Optimal Dosage for Stress Relief
Doses varied widely from between 6 mg and 400 mg, participants showed improved clinical outcomes in various anxiety assessment scales. CBD was generally well tolerated.[VeryWellMind.com] CBD appears to be safe in doses of up to 600 mg, according to research. However, specific dosage tolerance can vary from person to person depending on physiological factors (e.g., weight, height, age, overall health) and how long they’ve been using CBD.
Kick the holiday depression
Depression relief: Some research suggests that CBD may be useful as a treatment for depression. According to research, cannabinoids may influence how the brain responds to serotonin, a neurotransmitter that plays an important role in mood. Because people with depression often have low serotonin levels, CBD may help the brain use available serotonin more effectively.
Get some sleep this holiday
While the reasons are unclear and more research is needed, CBD appears to have potential as a treatment for sleep disorders. One study, for example, discovered that people who took CBD also reported improvements in the quality of their sleep.
