Could CBD help nicotine addiction?

Using CBD oil for nicotine addiction

There is some pretty strong evidence that CBD can help break the nicotine addiction and be used for quitting smoking, which is why so many people are now turning to CBD products.

There have been several credible studies conducted, a recent study by the University College of London concluded that people who used CBD reduced their cigarette consumption by 40%.

Evidence like this has led to many people trying CBD to see if it can help them. Many people are seeing the benefits and are seeing results for themselves. This is not a miracle cure, but it does appear to be very useful to help break the urge to light up.

Other CBD oil health benefits while cutting that Nicotine addiction

CBD has shown that it can benefit the Heart and respiratory systems health and also help lower blood pressure. All of these are affected by smoking and could do with a little boost when you quit smoking!

CBD has also shown it can reduce anxiety and depression, particularly useful when trying to quit, as we all feel the effects when trying to quit. It has been shown to work in a similar way to antidepressants except without all the side effects of pharmaceuticals (insomnia, headache, and drowsiness to name a few) and it has the added benefit of being completely natural!

CBD helps stabilize the mood and is also used to treat mood disorders and depression. Many users say that they feel more positive and their mood has been uplifted after using CBD

It has been shown to improve mood, focus and especially lowering anxiety. It also helps control irritability; it is important to know that CBD does not create a high.

How long does CBD oil take to work?

Inhaling CBD oil by vaping can be the fastest way of gaining the benefits. this is because the compounds are delivered to the blood directly from the lungs.

This is better than swallowing them and having to wait hours for the compound to go through the digestive system. Which can take a number of hours.

This way is considered the quickest as the user will feel the effects within 10 minutes.

The alternative way is to place them directly on the tongue. Which allows the membrane on the tongue to absorb them directly into the bloodstream. (Tinctures, etc.)

Try them both, I am not saying one is better than the other, it just depends on which you prefer and which you will consider more convenient, but I do feel as if the vape helps squash the immediate urge to spark up that cigarette for myself.

Headaches and fatigue

One of the most common side effects when quitting is the headaches, these can be treated with CBD-known to be very good at providing pain relief.

Some people add CBD to their morning coffee as a way to help boost energy. This helps them focus on the rest of the day, again CBD is well known to help reduce stress and anxiety.

Is CBD oil safe to use to quit smoking?

CBD oil is now becoming a major hit and it is being used for more and more treatments. It is being used for substance abuse, addiction, and also depression.

There is definitely some great evidence that supports CBD oil for quitting smoking. Nearly half a million people die from smoking and smoking-related disease. It’s been stated that smoking kills more than every other health-related death in total.

If you smoke cigarettes or other tobacco products you know that quitting smoking is a really good move for your health.

If your considering CBD talk to your Deep South Organics representative first to get the dose and method right for you and your needs.

How Hemp oil helps with sports injuries.

Adam Kemp talks about his beliefs that Hemp Oil products are not only useful, but vital for athletes.

Having played professional basketball in Europe for the past 4 years, and playing basketball and other sports my entire life, I feel like my story is important for understanding the role of HEMP OIL in sports medicine to manage chronic pain, inflammation, and mental stress.

As many people already clearly know, athletes deal with chronic pain, anxiety, and stress daily. Personally, I have been using HEMP OIL products for about four months now, and my results have been amazing!

Would you like to learn about why I think Hemp Oil is the future of sports medicine? Just read the rest of this article …

WHY DID I BEGIN USING HEMP OIL PRODUCTS?

Although I had learned a bit about Hemp Oil in the past, I didn’t begin using it myself until October of 2017.

As a professional basketball player, dealing with injuries and pain is a simple occupational hazard.

 

This past September though, I suffered a spinal compression fracture which ended my season pre-maturely. I like to believe that everything happens for a reason though, because if I had not had this injury I might not have ever discovered how beneficial Hemp Oil products are for myself and other athletes.

I started using HEMP OIL for pain relief as soon as I came back home from Europe (I was playing in Bulgaria).  While I was in Bulgaria, I had been administered a “cycle” of corticosteroid injections for my back, as well as daily non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. After just a couple of weeks of being treated with this medication regiment, my body was already starting to wear down.

These type of injections and medicines can be effective for reducing pain and inflammation, but the side effects are horrible! The injections made my body sweaty and jittery, and they kept me up all night. The NSAIDs were wearing my stomach and digestive system out by the day, and the pain relief wasn’t even very effective overall.

After trying to survive by using these medications for about a month, I can confidently say I would never want another athlete, or person in general, to have to use this type of “medicine.”

HEMP OIL IN SPORTS MEDICINE: RELIEF OF CHRONIC PAIN AND INFLAMMATION

If there was ever an occupation that made you predisposed to dealing with chronic pain and inflammation in the body, professional sports is certainly that.

Hemp Oil is especially important for athletes at this time because 2018 is the first year in which it has been off the World Anti-Doping Agency Banned Substance list. The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) is the standard for drug testing for athletes throughout the world, and having them remove HEMP OIL from their banned substance list is a huge step for athletes.

Dealing with chronic pain impacts your quality of life, as well as your ability to perform at your job. For an athlete, HEMP OIL is the natural answer to dealing with many challenges that your body is going to face each year. Studies have shown the ability of HEMP OIL to reduce inflammation and help treat arthritis, which plagues many athletes as they get older.

Furthermore, there have been widespread anecdotal reports of the anti-inflammatory power of HEMP OIL. Inflammation in joints and muscles is the cause of most chronic pain for athletes, which is why using a natural anti-inflammatory product is so effective.

Without even talking about dealing with the stress and anxiety of competing in sports at a high-level, it is clear that HEMP OIL is a wonderful product for athletes to use!

HOW DO I USE HEMP OIL IN MY OWN LIFE?

Since beginning to use HEMP OIL products about four months ago, I have been steadily using different “forms” of HEMP OIL and different amounts of HEMP OIL per day.

In general, I have developed a routine for HEMP OIL use which has allowed me to live happy and (relatively) pain free even with this spinal compression fracture in my back.

 

One aspect which is unique about HEMP OIL is that every person will need a different dosage of HEMP OIL to get the full benefits. The routine that I talk about below works for me but it took me a few months of learning my own body to figure out. Your body could need similar amounts of HEMP OIL per day, or it could be totally different!

My routine is to wake up with one HEMP OIL capsule, normally ranging from 25mg to 50mg for my first dose of the day.

I drink this first capsule immediately upon waking, and I can begin to feel the pain relief and calming sensation that HEMP OIL provides within about 15 to 30 minutes normally. I start every day with this amount of HEMP OIL, and a warm cup of tea. If I can tell my back is feeling a bit “creaky” on certain days, I will also put a few drops of a HEMP OIL oil tincture in to my morning tea.

Following this, I normally head to do my physical therapy for the day.  I love HEMP OIL in the morning before training because I am also a firm believer in the power of intermittent fasting for overall health. Using HEMP OIL before intermittent fasting helps me to have some additional natural energy, and it does not “break” my body’s fasted state.

After I am done with my training for the day, I normally only use one more HEMP OIL capsule in the evening, a couple hours before I head to bed.

Along with this though, two times during each day my wife will apply a topical HEMP OIL relief product on my back, and any other muscles that are particularly sore that day. We both use HEMP OIL topicals twice per day, and it is especially effective for the issue with my back.

Although there is no conclusive proof at this time, HEMP OIL has been shown to be effective for reversing osteoporosis, and even helping to heal fractures!

Due to this, I have been making sure to use both orally ingestible HEMP OIL and HEMP OIL topicals.

It has worked wonders for me, and many other people have experienced similar benefits as well.

SHOULD DOCTORS USE HEMP OIL IN SPORTS MEDICINE?

Without having conclusive medical proof of the benefits of HEMP OIL products, it is obviously difficult to make any bold claims about who should and who shouldn’t use Hemp Oil.

However, from my own personal experience, I believe HEMP OIL is one of the best medical treatments possible for athletes..

This has been a great few months for HEMP OIL since it has been officially removed from the WADA Banned Substance List, and the World Health Organization declared it safe for use as well.

I recommend wider use of HEMP OIL in sports medicine because it can neutralize inflammation-based issues such as muscle pain and tendonitis, relieve the chronic physical pain that sports can induce, and help athletes to manage stress and anxiety from needing to perform at a prominent level every single day.

There are certainly tons of other benefits of HEMP OIL, and as more research comes out it will be great to have a further understanding of how best HEMP OIL can be used to help athletes and everyone else.

At this point in time, I still rely on it to manage my ongoing back pain and help me live a pain-free life!
