Stress Management for Moms with CBD

Yesterday, in Mothering Unapologetically, I talked about how I use CBD as one of my stress management tools. Here are some other benefits of CBD:

1) 🧘‍♀️They’re A Natural Way To Relax Your Body & Mind

Full spectrum hemp oil is a rich source of phytocannabinoids, which may also provide a wide array of benefits for those suffering from mental and physical pain.

It not only has the potential to reduce anxiety, stress, and depression but it also provides anti-inflammatory effects on the body, which may help relieve the tension that many people carry from stress.

2) ❤They’re Good For Your Heart Health

Studies in the journal Nutrition & Metabolism(2) and a review(3) highlight the nutrient profile of hemp seeds and note that they might have a positive effect on various health issues, such as high blood pressure, atherosclerosis, and cholesterol levels.

3) 🤯💊 They Protect & Care For Your Brain

A recent study(4) in mice found that a hemp seed extract containing phytocannabinoids was able to help protect the brain against inflammation. The authors note that hemp seed oil contains polyphenols, which may play a role in protecting the brain.

4) 💊They’re Natural Pain Relievers

A 2018 review(5) notes that CBD, one of the main compounds in full-spectrum hemp oil, and other cannabinoids show promise for the treatment of many causes of pain, such as inflammation.

5) ⚡They Reduce Your Risk of Diabetes and Obesity

Not only have several studies shown that regular cannabis users have a lower body mass index,, but research(6) has demonstrated that CBD benefits weight loss by helping the body convert white fat into weight-reducing brown fat, promoting noatherogenesisrmal insulin production and sugar metabolism.

Plus, CBD on its own was shown in 2006 to lower the incidence of diabetes in lab rats.(7)

6)💆🏻‍♀️ They’re Amazing For Your Skin

A 2014 study(8) looking at the lipid profile of hemp seed oil found that it is rich in healthy oils, fatty acids, and vitamins that may help keep the skin healthy and prevent a treatment for a range of skin issues, including: eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, varicose eczema, acne and more!
