4. CBD Use Helps Relieve Nausea
Cannabis has been used for centuries for the suppression of nausea and vomiting. Research has revealed that among more than 80 cannabinoid compounds found in cannabis, both the intoxicant THC and the non-intoxicant CBD helps to get rid of nausea and vomiting in animal studies.
A 2012 study published in the British Journal of Pharmacology found that benefits of CBD oil may include possessing anti-nausea and antiemetic effects when it was administered to rats. Researchers found that CBD acts in a diphasic manner, meaning that in low doses it suppresses toxin-induced vomiting, but in high doses it increases nausea or has no effect.
5. CBD Oil May Treat Seizures and Other Neurological Disorders
A 2014 survey conducted by researchers at Stanford University was presented to parents belonging to a Facebook group dedicated to sharing information about the use of cannabidiol-enriched cannabis to treat their child’s seizures.
Nineteen responses met the inclusion criteria for the study: a diagnosis of epilepsy and current use of CBD-enriched cannabis. The average number of anti-epileptic drugs tried before using CBD cannabis was 12. Sixteen (84 percent) of the 19 parents reported a reduction in their child’s seizure frequency while taking CBD cannabis. Of these, two (11 percent) reported complete seizure freedom, eight (42 percent) reported a greater than 80 percent reduction in seizure frequency, and six (32 percent) reported a 25–60 percent seizure reduction.
Other beneficial effects included increased alertness, better mood and improved sleep; while side effects included drowsiness and fatigue.
Later in 2014, researchers reported on preliminary study results involving children with treatment-resistant epilepsies in an expanded access “compassionate use program.” Patients received a purified 98 percent oil-based CBD extract called Epidiolex, which is made by GW Pharmaceuticals. After three months of treatment, 39 percent of the 23 patients had more than a 50 percent reduction in seizures, with a 32 percent median reduction.
These preliminary results support the animal studies and survey reports that CBD may be a promising treatment for treatment-resistant epilepsy, and it is generally well-tolerated in doses up to 25 milligrams per kilogram of body weight.
6. CBD May Lower Incidence of Diabetes
A 2006 study found that CBD treatment significantly reduced the incidence of diabetes in non-obese diabetic mice from an incidence of 86 percent in non-treated mice to an incidence of 30 percent in CBD-treated mice. CBD benefits also showed a significant reduction of plasma levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines. A histological examination of the pancreatic islets of the CBD-treated mice revealed significantly reduced insulitis.
In 2013, the American Journal of Medicine published a study that highlighted the impact of cannabis use on glucose, insulin and insulin resistance among U.S. adults. The study included 4,657 adult men and women from the National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey from 2005 to 2010.
Of the people in the study, 579 were current cannabis users and 1,975 were past users. The researchers found that current cannabis use was associated with 16 percent lower fasting insulin levels. They also found significant associations between cannabis use and smaller waist circumferences, a factor connected to the onset of diabetes symptoms.
7. CBD Offers Cardiovascular Health Benefits
A 2013 study published in the British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology reports that CBD protects against the vascular damage caused by a high glucose environment, inflammation or the induction of type 2 diabetes in animal models; plus, CBD proved to reduce the vascular hyperpermeability (which causes leaky gut health problems) associated with such environments.
8. CBD Oil Improves Leaky Gut
By interacting with receptors of the endocannabinoid system and helping to keep your body in a parasympathetic state, CBD oil helps to reduce inflammation and improve leaky gut. The parasympathetic nervous system is your “rest and digest” system. In a parasympathetic state, your intestinal and gland activity increases, and the muscles in your gastrointestinal tract are able to relax.
Just like other plants and herbs that are used in traditional medicine, hemp-derived CBD oil supports the body’s ability to heal itself. This is unlike pharmaceutical drugs that actually alter the body’s natural functions.
9. CBD Oil for Skin Health
CBD oil has shown to regulate the production of cytokines in experimental models of inflammation. This is what allows CBD to reduce inflammation and improve inflammatory skin conditions, like allergic contact dermatitis.
Studies show that topical application of CBD oil has therapeutic potential for the reduction of inflammation, without side effects. CBD oil can be used to improve acne vulgaris, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, pruritus, skin care and other conditions caused by inflammation.
Drinking the Naneau flavored CBD tea or water is an excellent way to receive the benefits of the CBD. Why? Surface area, plain and simple. When the nano “envelope” holding the CBD has been processed with the Nano technology the surface area available is insane compared to traditional CBD emulsion or binding technology.
Do we claim any of the above benefits from our water no, we claim that our Nano CBD beverage is one of the most refreshing, hydrating products available in its class. Try some today!
