CBD Cream for Pain [Amazing All-natural Relief]

CBD roll on salve stickCBD products have taken the world by storm in recent years. Many people prefer natural remedies for their pains and other ailments. It is one of the most effective natural remedies for alleviating pain, depression, anxiety, asthma and even Alzheimer's disease.

CBD, AKA cannabidiol, is a product derived from the hemp plant. Unlike other compounds derived from cannabis or the hemp plant, CBD does not change your mental state. It will not make you high because it has such a small amount, 0.3%, of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol).

CBD has been used to make a variety of products with these health benefits, including gummies, oil, and isolate powder. One of the most used products to relieve pain is CBD cream.

What Are CBD Creams?

CBD creams are extremely popular, found even in the beauty industry. Topical creams are infused with CBD to create additional benefits such as pain relief and improved skin health. These topicals may have distillates containing CBD, isolated compounds of CBD, or a wide spectrum of oils containing CBD.

CBD can be blended with therapeutic herbs such as lemongrass essential oils or arnica, well known for relieving pain.

CBD creams are mainly used to alleviate pain and inflammation, but CBD skin creams can also be used to deal with skin conditions like acne and black spots.

How To Use CBD Creams

 

CBD creams are one of the best products you can use for chronic pain and minor aches. 

After identifying where the pain is coming from, you only have to take adollop of CBD cream and rub it on the affected spot. It is a similar process to applying lotion or moisturizer to your skin.

For the best results, it is key for you to know how much CBD is in the cream, by identifying how many CBD milligrams are in the bottle. That will help you determine the correct dosage that will offer therapeutic relief.

It is best to start with a low dosage of CBD cream and monitor how that works on you before gradually increasing the dosage.

How Do CBD Creams Work

It's easy to say that CBD creams are used to relieve pain and inflammation by applying them to the affected area of the skin. However, how do they bring out that relieving effect?

It all comes down to how the CBD interacts with the endocannabinoid system in the body.

Endocannabinoids- They are natural compounds that are produced by the body and are structurally alike with the cannabinoids present in cannabis like CBD and THC. There are two endocannabinoids so far; 2-AG (2 arachidonoylglyerol) and AEA (anandamide).

Cannabinoid receptors- There are two of these receptors found all over the body, CB1 and CB2. They are known to regulate the effects of your body's natural endocannabinoids and also regulate the effects of the cannabinoids present in cannabis.

CB1 receptors are mainly found in the brain but are also spread around the body. They are involved in the regulation of appetite, sleep and mood. CB2 receptors are mainly present in the immune system, and a small concentration of them are found in the brain. They are linked to various immune functions.

When there are low levels of endocannabinoid in the body, applying CBD cream will help because the CBD will naturally support and stimulate the ECS. CBD also works by increasing the levels of your natural pain-relieving endocannabinoids by hindering metabolism as they move around your body.

CB1 and CB2 receptors are responsible for sending signals that dampen the pricks and itches of pain on your skin.

By applying CBD cream on the area with the pain, the CBD bypasses the receptors and heads directly to the neurotransmitter middleman, which blocks those pain signals.

Another way that CBD cream works in pain relief is through the TrpV1 receptors, which detect and regulate body temperature. When activated, the receptors put out heat and soothe the pain receptors.

The CBD cream helps make the pain receptors hyperactive for some time, making them hot, desensitizing them, and then downregulating the pain-sensing nerve endings.

How To Choose The Best CBD Topical for Pain

With the CBD market increasingly expanding, there is an overwhelming amount of CBD cream for sale. However, how you choose your source will determine how much therapeutic benefits you will get from your cream.

There are several ways you can ensure you get the best product with the best pain relief benefits.

Here are three questions you should ask before purchasing CBD cream.

1. How was the hemp grown?

A high-quality CBD cream started as a high-quality hemp plant. How the plant was grown determines its quality and the quality of the CBD cream, because hemp is known for soaking up everything present in the soil it is grown in.

Go for a cream that was made with hemp naturally grown in the US, without using pesticides and herbicides in nutrient-rich soil.

For CBD extraction, pressure has to be applied to the plant, excreting the present oils. Go for the CBD cream where the CBD was extracted using supercritical CO2 extraction instead of butane.

The chemicals in the butane might mix with the cannabidiol, compromising the composition of the CBD cream.

3. Does it have third-party laboratory test results?

The FDA has not provided set guidelines for CBD products, which sometimes means that CBD products may not contain what they claim, and may not be safe for use.

Third-party testing results assure you that the CBD cream is safe for use, and it contains what is on the label.
