Looking for that perfect gift this holiday season? Then you have come to the right place for my Holiday Gift Guide on CBD products. CBD gifts are a must for us wellness-obsessed junkies this holiday season, and I’ve got you covered! With a mix of my favorite CBD products, these holiday CBD Gift ideas are perfect for your family, friends, pets and you can even treat yourself.
Now for those of you who are not familiar with CBD oil and may think it is marijuana (it’s not), I’d like to explain a bit about “What The Heck Is CBD Oil And Why It Is The Perfect Gift This Holiday Season.”
I was first introduced to the use of CBD oil from my sister. She is a nurse but has had some medical issues that have made her disabled, unable to work and in a lot of pain. Not wanting to take tons of medication in which she was prescribed she opted to try a holistic approach using CBD oil and we are happy to say it works! So, from her nausea, insomnia, migraines, too severe pain from a neurological issue (CBD has found to have particular application as neuroprotectants), she has found some tremendous benefits from CBD products.
What The Heck Is CBD And Where Does It Come From
As mentioned above CBD is not marijuana. CBD is a cannabinoid that is extracted from cannabis. Like any other plant species, cannabis comes in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors, and flavors. One group of cannabis strains is called hemp. Hemp is also known as industrial hemp or agricultural hemp, and unlike the strains referred to as marijuana, hemp is used for building materials, textiles, and food.
And there just happens to be strains of hemp that are high in CBD and have negligible amounts of THC.
Until recently, the best-known compound and active ingredient in cannabis was THC. However, Marijuana contains both THC and CBD, and these compounds have entirely different effects.
The THC that is found in cannabis is what creates the mind-altering "high" when heat is applied to, and a person smokes or uses it in cooking. This is because the THC breaks down when it encounters the high heat.
CBD-rich hemp IS DIFFERENT! Unlike THC, it has no psychoactive effect. This means that CBD DOES NOT change a person's state of mind when they use it. Hence allowing the consumer to enjoy the benefits of CBD without the risk of getting high.
What Are The Health Benefits Of CBD?
Similar to how we use vitamin C to kick-start our immune system, CBD acts as a kick starter to keep our own bodies cannabinoids, called endocannabinoids working at optimal capacity and to help the functions of the body’s central regulatory system. CBD has been the subject of several health-related studies, and yes, it is legal in all fifty states. I have highlighted several of the of the findings below:
- Acne
- Joint pain treatment
- Improving the health of the skin
- Anxiety relief
- Reduce cigarette cravings and other addictions
- Insomnia
- Nausea
- High blood pressure
- Dealing with your relatives during the holiday season (ha)
- And many More
