What is CBD oil and what does it do?

Normally it is called CBD Vape known also as "CBD oil" (or hemp) to the extractions made in order to obtain the active principles of the plant leaving behind the plant remains, which mostly contain substances harmful to health. There are different extraction techniques, some safer and more effective than others, to obtain the active principles of cannabis and hemp and to consume them in different ways: ingested, inhaled, smoked, etc. The strong CBD tincture can be found in different formats like oil (liquid or wax) which is one of the most used.

These oils contain CBD which is a cannabinoid that has a broad spectrum of indications where it can play a complementary role as effective natural therapy with few or no side effects. The effectiveness of the plant is explained by the existence in the human body of an "endocannabinoid system", consisting of neurotransmitter substances - such as serotonin or anandamide - and its cellular receptors that regulate a variety of functions, such as sleep, appetite, the pain or the immune response. Therefore, the CBD works practically as naturally as a substance secreted by the body itself.

Cannabidiol CBD has several therapeutic properties. An interesting feature of this molecule is its low toxicity and the fact that it has very few undesirable side effects: in the worst case, too high a dose could cause sedation (before sleep). We can note that CBD has low affinity with cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2), but it acts more importantly with other receptors in the human body, such as GPR55 or 5-HT1A.

This cannabinoid by itself does not produce any psychoactive effect, although it does have a slight sensation of calmness. This means that the consumption of isolated CBD does not provide the feeling of drunkenness that we are accustomed to relating to cannabis, however, it does contain multiple medicinal properties. These characteristics make the CBD a powerful ally for the health sector, as it can help alleviate many types of illnesses without the patient suffering any type of psychoactive experience.
