5 CBD Facts & Benefits You Didn’t Know

It’s well known that CBD is great for post-workout recovery, has anti-inflammatory properties that help ease muscle and joint discomfort, or is a popular sleep aid.

But here are 5 benefits of CBD that may pleasantly surprise you:

Unfortunately, most people don’t make CBD part of their daily routine until they have a wellness issue.

Yet, hemp-derived CBD oil is like a daily multivitamin. It’s a natural source of vitamins, minerals, proteins, and other nutrients that helps support a complete diet and keep you at your peak.

You may be wondering - how can it do both?

One thing critical to your overall wellness is your ECS (endocannabinoid system). It’s always working to deliver what your body needs to maintain homeostasis, or balance.

CBD helps aid the ECS in this by adapting to your body’s needs to keep your body in harmony.

CBD has been shown to be even more effective when combined with the other 100-plus cannabinoids in the hemp plant, most also good for your well-being. 

This is the entourage effect; think of it as synergy for a more powerful overall impact on your wellness.

That’s why broad spectrum CBD is a great way to enjoy a variety of benefits from hemp-derived CBD.

CBD & teeth. Who knew, right?

Yet, studies have shown CBD helps aid in the wellness of your teeth and gums due to its anti-inflammatory properties, which help address the pain and discomfort of a toothache.

CBD also has been shown to have antimicrobial properties, which helps soothe swollen, inflamed gums to help improve your oral hygiene.

Clinical trials have found that large amounts of CBD cause no adverse physical reaction (provided no more than 0.03% THC is in the product).

According to their findings, a 150-lb person would have to ingest 1,650 mg of CBD to experience a reaction.

Still, start slow with CBD - as low as 5 mg a serving - so your body can adjust to its effects.
