Does CBD help with Arthritis?

Whilst we can not claim that CBD categorically helps with Arthritis, many tests on animals and humans have shown very positive results.

Both the Hemp and Cannibas plants produce chemical compounds called cannabinoids, which are known to help with inflammation and indeed to help your body naturally produce its own cannabinoids more effectively, enabling your body to naturally fight any inflammation.

Cannabinoids such as CBD, attach themselves to receptors in your brain and immune system. Two such receptors, CB1 and CB2, manage pain and specifically inflammation, consequently when CBD attaches it is said to help. Fay Rim a physiatrist and pain management consultant in New York said ‘ These receptors are primarily involved with coordination, movement, pain, emotional output and the immune system and as such when cannabinoids attach they have the effect of helping with conditions such as arthritis’

Arima’s CBD oils, Capsules or MCT/CBD oils are ideal for this condition, either taken under the tongue, taken with water or mixed with your favourite drink or health food. It is suggested that the Arima 10% oil taken 3 x per day is likely to produce the best results. Arthritic pain is usually strong and therefore needs a fairly strong mix and dose in order to induce the best results.

Please note that whilst studies have been very positive, there is a lack of scientific evidence to prove conclusively that CBD is guaranteed to help. Further, whilst it is reported that CBD is effective in many cases it may not work for everybody. The best advice is to ‘give it a go’ and if it helps continue as suggested.
