CBD can help to increase bone formation, reduce bone loss, and aid the body in maintaining normal bone mass. While loss of bone mass is a part of the aging process, osteoporosis is characterized by excessive loss of calcified material and fibers. CBD acts on the CB1 and CB2 receptors (parts of our endocannabinoid system) to increase osteoblast count and inhibit osteoclast precursor proliferation. Osteoblasts are cells that form bone, while osteoclasts are the cells that dissolve existing bone tissue. When osteoporosis occurs, the creation of new bone matrix cannot keep up with the removal of old matter. CBD will not cure osteoporosis, however, it may be the helping hand your osteoblasts need to function better when struggling with this bone disease. Superior Vitae is located at 118 W.

The different categories of CBD products on the market can be confusing to those who are seeking to find the right fit for their needs. CBD labeled as ‘isolate’ is just as it sounds. It should contain only CBD and have all other terpenes, cannabinoids (THC included) and flavonoids removed. Products labeled ‘full-spectrum’ should contain CBD, other cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids, and THC. CBD specified as ‘broad-spectrum’ should consist of everything full-spectrum offers, but all THC is removed at the end of the production process. Superior Vitae provides broad-spectrum CBD from JOY Organics accompanied by testing reports specific to the batch of the product you select. Stop in during business hours to browse our selection and get YOUR questions answered!

Our bodies contain what is known as the Endocannabinoid System. Discovered in 1992, the ECS is a molecular signaling system tasked with maintaining a stable internal environment in response to fluctuations in the external environment. In other words, the ECS plays a significant role in maintaining homeostasis, or balance, throughout the body. When an imbalance is detected, endocannabinoids are synthesized within and interact with CB1 or CB2 receptors to restore balance. That’s where cannabidiol plays a part in helping with symptoms such as pain, anxiety, or other discomforts. CBD does not attach to these receptors, however, it acts as an activator of other receptors such as TRVP1 that work to control pain perception, body temperature and inflammation. CBD also promotes higher levels of the endocannabinoid anandamide, which regulates inflammation and neuron signaling.

When you have to deal with chronic pain due to injury or other disorders, the body is continually dispatching groups of immune cells to the affected area in an effort to knock out pathogens that may be causing harm. This is what the actual inflammation is. Over long periods of time, it becomes tough to deal with the daily discomfort of the body trying in vain to repair itself. When cannabidiol is introduced into the system, it is thought that it elevates the amount of the endocannabinoid 2-AG. Endocannabinoids are produced naturally by our bodies. The presence of 2-AG reduces the number of immune cells being sent to the affected area. I compare it to the analogy of “too many cooks in the kitchen”. When the endocannabinoid system is in balance, it can help the rest of the body maintain homeostasis. This is a very brief and simple explanation gathered from my personal research on how cannabidiol may help with annoying or exhausting inflammation and pain.

It’s a common question that people are curious about. Definitive answers are limited due to the incredible amount of misinformation that is out there. I sift through several articles per day in an effort to assemble a clear picture from what I deem is credible material. I came across a study that concluded that a serving of 20,000mg ingested all at once would have toxic (NOT deadly) effects. For perspective, our bottles of tincture contain 500mg, 1000mg and 1500mg of actual cannabidiol depending on what quantity you choose when purchasing. When using a 1500mg bottle, one dropper contains 50mg. This is not meant to be medical advice, but I consider it to be one of the more solid pieces of data I’ve encountered. Want more info?
