Digestive Issues

CBD for Digestive Issues

It is estimated that over 20 million Americans suffer from some type of Digestive Disease.

While most people have suffered from basic digestive issues such as constipation or diarrhea, more serious issues like Crohn’s disease do occur. These problems can cause extreme discomfort and pain which results in decreased performance in other parts of life and reduces overall happiness. Furthermore, if left untreated, various issues could cause people to experience anxiety, depression, and other serious conditions.

How CBD Works To Relieve Digestive Issues

CBD is known for reducing inflammation throughout the body and can reduce overall inflammation of a person’s digestive system. This will reduce discomfort and relieve pain. The Endocannabinoid System (ECS) is responsible for many functions of the body such as pain, mood, memory, and appetite. Taking CBD boosts the ECS and can promote a healthier digestive system. The body can become more regulated. Symptoms commonly presented by digestive issues can be dramatically minimized.

Dosing Thoughts

Research studies have used doses from 15mg to as high as 600mg. Typical CBD supplements provide 20mg to 25mg. When taking CBD for digestive issues, dosing can vary widely depending on the severity of the symptoms you are experiencing. One goal to consider is to use CBD to supplement or possibly replace pharmaceuticals you might be taking. CBD is an all-natural alternative that does not build up in your system and cannot be overdosed.

May we suggest trying one of our CUBED Hemp based CBD Tinctures. Available in 1200mg or 3600mg concentrations, mixed with our exclusive Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Italy or NYS-sourced sunflower seed oil. Our Graduated Sprayer makes it simple to dose properly.

It is important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any supplement program. Most prescribed medications cannot and should not be stopped all at once.
It has been suggested to start with a dose of 10mg to 15mg of CBD twice a day. After a few days, you may want to reduce prescribed meds incrementally while increasing your CBD dosage the following day. Steps of 10mg are suggested to help monitor changes. Monitor your symptoms; be aware of how you feel. Don’t hurry the process. Wait 2 to 3 days between changes. This will allow you to determine the dosing that your body requires to meet your goals, while documenting how your medications interact.
