It’s too easy for a child to stumble upon a jar full of cannabis gummies or candies. The real risk occurs when your child takes a handful of candies out of the jar and eats them thinking they are normal candies. Unfortunately, we all are well aware of the consequences associated with an edible overdose. The situation gets even worse in the case of children. So, here is a write-up that covers five major steps that might help you save a child who accidentally swallowed marijuana edibles. 

Figure Out What Did They Ingest? 

First and foremost, you need to find out whether your child ingested a THC or CBD edible. THC edibles have psychoactive properties and CBD edibles are largely engineered by medical marijuana growers to help people relax without causing intoxication. So, finding out the mix should be your priority. Also, you will most likely cause panic after seeing your child eating your cannabis edibles. And it is okay to react in a certain way, but things can get worse if you don’t stay focused. So, step back and breathe, look at the jar, and find out what happened. Talk to the child and ask how many edibles were ingested. 

While it’s not safe to gulp four or five gummies instantly, it’s also not life-threatening. The main concern would be to look at the situation of your child and keep the time frame in mind. Cannabis edibles can take a few hours to finally show their effects, even inside the body of a child. If you caught them in the act, they will behave normally and you might get a little sense of comfort. The main problem is that your child is still in danger and once you find out the mix follow the below-mentioned steps. 

Plan and Talk to a Medical Professional 

This point is a detailed analysis of what I had mentioned before. First, grab a paper and write down everything that you have learned so far. For instance, the amount of edible ingested, time of the act, behavioral changes, and form of edible. These details will come quite handy when you talk to a health professional later on. 

You also need to take note of things like how much time has passed since your child swallowed an edible. This will help you adapt to the changes in your child’s behavior. Ideally, the effects of an edible include lethargy, feeling of relaxation, lack of focus and balance, and impaired state of mind. As a parent, you are in the best position to note all these symptoms. You can also take help from a cannabis expert or medical marijuana growers because they know everything about edibles and dosing guides. In case, you think something is strange and should have not happened, immediately talk to a health professional and seek instant advice. 

Seek Help From Poison Control 

Officials at poison control will tell you how to manage the situation effectively. Take your pen and paper again and tell them everything you have penned down. Next, note down what the operator has to say and write down every detail carefully. I am asking you to note down everything because the situation will be quite stressful and you will miss out on a lot of details. So, you should write down everything and read the instructions to help your child efficiently. 

Dispensing on the situation and the number of edibles consumed, you might have to take your child to the ER. In that case, do not wait for the symptoms to appear. Immediately drive to the nearest hospital and leave the rest to the medical health professionals. 

Study the Symptoms 

As I have mentioned earlier it is vital to read the symptoms. You don’t want a child protective service knocking at your door. After all, cannabis is illegal on the federal level and once you seek help from medical health professionals, the CPR may or may not call child protection services. In most scenarios, this doesn’t happen, but in case child services are contacted, stay calm because they will ask a few questions. All you have to do is answer them honestly and everything will be good to go. 

That said, let’s see how you can recognize the signs of severe intoxication. A mild or small dose will not cause major side effects. However, you still have to be prepared for the worst. For instance, intoxication will cause your child to suffer from an unpleasant feeling along with nausea, paranoia, anxiety, and increased heart rate. You may also notice your child losing balance and struggling to stay awake. In either of the cases, nothing bad will happen with your child because the effects will wear off eventually. You simply have to stay around your child while the effects take over and try to put your child to sleep. 

Cannabis Will Not Kill Your Child

While you go through every detail carefully in order to save your child from the effects of an overdose, note down one more important thing. First, your child will not die after ingesting a small dose of THC or CBD. Cannabis is not fatal and no one has ever died after overdosing on marijuana. The only exception here is extreme cases of an overdose. If your child consumes a lot of cannabis edibles, they are most likely to go into a comatose state. That’s why it is vital to keep edible jars or containers away from the reach and sight of your children. 

Some studies show that regular cannabis consumption can cause cognitive dysfunction in teenagers. Not only this, but early use of marijuana can lead to long term brain damage in some form. The only good thing is that these studies do not apply to this situation. This situation applies to children who accidentally consumed cannabis. 

So, in that case, problems such as cognitive dysfunction are the last thing you need to be worried about. What you actually need to worry about is paying attention to every minute detail. You see, people who eat cannabis edibles are familiar with its effects. Details such as the amount of edible ingested and time of consumption. These tiny but vital details will help you analyze how you should handle the situation. 

Final Thoughts

The problem with marijuana is that it is not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration. So, the products will not come with instructions like child-locked or keep away from children. You might leave the container open without realizing that edibles look exactly like normal food items. And that doesn’t make you a bad parent if you accidentally leave an edible container in the bare sight of your child. 

The only thing that you need to keep in mind is that the situation is preventable. If you follow all the steps mentioned-above carefully you will avoid a big deal of hassle and chaos. More vitally, always remember to stay calm and patient because things happen and sometimes situations go out of your hand. Being hard on yourself or your child will only deteriorate the situation. On the other hand, if you prepare, read the symptoms, and handle the situation carefully, you might narrate the story to your children when they grow up and laugh it off.

With the current state of the nation, CBD can go a long way to help you deal with a lot of problems. And the best part is you don’t even need 420 evaluations or a medical marijuana card to purchase CBD derived from hemp. You can ease pain, anxiety, and stress caused due to a depressive episode in your life. All you have to do is find a way to adjust CBD in your wellness routine. It can be in the form of oil to help you get relief from pain or a CBD flower to help you alleviate the symptoms of anxiety.                                    

Even though CBD lacks scientific evidence and research, a few studies have found CBD therapeutically beneficial. Also, there’s no denying that cannabis falls under a gigantic grey area. All thanks to the federal status. You see, cannabis is still illegal on the federal level. This means that we have to depend on preliminary studies to prove CBDs’ efficiency. Also, there are anecdotal pieces of evidence that show how CBD can help ease stress and anxiety without causing any side effects. 

During the pandemic, when we all are confined within the walls of our homes, our brain has been accustomed to a changed lifestyle. Moreover, there is a part that always longs to get back to the normal routine we had before the pandemic struck us all down. While we all are somehow exhausted, CBD may help provide some relief. Here are some ways that will allow you to add CBD to your wellness routine.

Yoga And Meditation

Meditation and yoga are the perfect ways to include CBD in your daily routine. If you haven’t noticed but cannabis and yoga go a long way. There are several studios out there. Some encourage practicing yoga and meditation under the influence of cannabis. In fact, people report that CBD helps them enhance the overall experience of yoga and meditation. So, you can try the same and let us know in the comment section below if it worked wonders for you. Also, remember if you have a medical condition do not take CBD unless you get 420 evaluations. The doctor will help you learn whether your medical conditions qualify for medical marijuana use or not.                 

That said, let us help you learn how to incorporate CBD into your yoga routine. First things first, CBD will encourage the production of dopamine and endorphins. Similarly, yoga will also help connect your body to the production of healthy hormones. Eventually, the combination of both will encourage you to focus, enjoy, and stretch more. No matter the age and medical condition yoga and mediation cause no one any harm. Some people become better at concentration while they have CBD in their system. While others simply use CBD to stretch their body while staying relaxed and pain-free. 

The bottom line is that CBD use can help you stay calm and connect your brain to the present moment. And the good news is if you love yoga go ahead and amp your yoga sessions by adding a little CBD to it. However, remember to go small when you begin taking CBD. For experienced users exceeding the dose limits can cause certain side effects. So, make sure you keep the dosing guide in mind while adding CBD to your wellness routine. 

Stress And Anxiety

Anxiety is a common medical condition. Every one in five Americans suffers from anxiety and depression. And anxiety comes in various forms and degrees. Some suffer from minor anxiety while others have to deal with panic attacks. This makes it incredibly difficult to live with anxiety. Given the fact that we are navigating through crucial times, it becomes even more vital to take care of anxiety issues. Yes, there are several ways to handle anxiety, but CBD can also help manage anxiety. All types of CBD products are available in the CBD store. 

According to a study of CBD, the non-psychoactive compound of the cannabis plant interacts with the natural receptors in the body to cause a reaction. This reaction causes an anxiety patient to feel relaxed even under a stressful situation. Although, make sure you take the right dose or consult a doctor before taking CBD for your anxiety. If CBD works in your favor, you can reduce stress and manage the symptoms of anxiety that mess up with the quality of your life. 

Facial Acne

There are so many things that people need to do in order to look beautiful. People go to great lengths to meet the standards of beauty. Some end up fixing their nose with the help of plastic surgery while others add a list of cosmetics to their skincare routine. Whatever they do or you do, it is a personal choice. 

However, some issues cause beauty complex issues among girls. For instance, facial acne. Whether hormonal or blood related, acne problems cause a lot of stress. And to make things worse let’s add hot weather and humidity to the acne-causing list. However, all thanks to the CBD skincare line, you can get rid of acne easily. You see, CBD skincare products have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Which by the way are very good for your skin. The bumps that you see on your face in front of the mirror right now can be cured with the help of CBD oil. In fact, CBD also helps with blemishes, inflamed skin, allergy, and acne scars. 

Beauty Routine

Having mentioned how CBD oil can help fight acne and blemishes, I couldn’t help but tap into the beauty potential of CBD. I don’t know how many of you know, but CBD has entered the cosmetics industry and big brands like Sephora have collaborated with the cannabis industry. Not only this but some cosmetic brands have already introduced a CBD skincare line. You can use these products to maintain healthy skin. There are plenty of products out there. For instance, oils, tincture, balms, sunscreen, creams, face masks, etc. You can use any product and see how it works on your skin. After all, a little self-indulgence during quarantine can hurt no one.

Movie Marathon

You cannot run like you used to do it before. The fear of contraction always lurks behind. This might have also restricted you to exercise inside the home. Which, in turn, is a very good thing because it will help us all flatten the pandemic curve. So, if you cannot run outside you might as well run a movie marathon on Netflix. There’s nothing better than Netflix and CBD chill. While CBD will help calm your nerves, the movies will keep you entertained. Moreover, you will not even get tired or exhausted. We think it is the best way to keep the quarantine blues at bay. 

Cooking

This one is an out of the box idea for people who use cannabis for recreational purposes. There are products in the market with high amounts of CBD. Although such products also contain THC. So, you might have to get 420 evaluations from a licensed doctor first. After you get a medical cannabis card only then can you buy products with extra THC. High THC and CBD can be found in edibles. It will only help you feel relaxed while you cook your favorite meal to deal with cannabis munchies later on.

We all are familiar with the benefits of cannabis. More and more states are now legalizing medical cannabis because of its therapeutic benefits. Anyone suffering from a qualifying condition can get an MMJ card after a 420 evaluation in Bakersfield. But, other than medical benefits, cannabis still has a lot to offer. You must have heard about cannabis boosting the creativity of people, or helping athletes with their workouts. But are you familiar with the relationship between cannabis and singing? 

Both singing and cannabis have a lot of things in common such as making you feel fantastic and relaxed. But the connection between the two is much deeper than just that. And today we are going to explore that complex relationship between them. We will also look at how smoking cannabis can affect the singing voice of an individual. Whether you are a professional singer or a bathroom singer, we know you love your voice and you love singing. And if you are a cannabis enthusiast as well, you should definitely learn about this relationship cannabis and singing have.

The relationship between cannabis and singing

Singing can reduce stress and makes you feel good. Doesn’t it sound familiar? Cannabis is also associated with reducing stress and making users feel good. Both singing and consuming cannabis can induce a state of euphoria. And if we talk about the scientific terms, both the activities have an influence on the body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS).

Wait a minute, but what is the ECS? Basically, it consists of cell receptors and many chemical compounds known as endocannabinoids. This system is responsible for controlling mood, appetite, memory, and reward response. It does so with the help of its regulatory function that is present within the body. When you consume cannabis, the cannabinoids present in it act on the endocannabinoid system. Many cannabinoids present in cannabis have a similar molecular structure to the endocannabinoids of our ECS. That is why cannabinoids are able to interact with the same receptors. Hence, they are able to trigger the same functions. 

Take THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) for instance. THC is the intoxicating compound of cannabis. THC and an endocannabinoid, anandamide, share a similar shape. One of the various functions of anandamide is to improve mood, that’s why it also got its nickname ‘the bliss molecule’. And THC interacts with the same receptors as anandamide because of their similar shape. That’s why THC is able to impart a state of calm and happiness. Or as we call it, the cannabis high. Another cannabinoid is CBD (cannabidiol), which is not an intoxicating cannabinoid. CBD also affects the ECS, but not directly. It does not bind with the cannabinoid receptors, instead, it simply increases the levels of natural endocannabinoids. 

A study was done in 2018 by researcher Nicole Stone involving nine healthy female volunteers from a choir. The result of the study showed a 42 percent increment in anandamide levels of volunteers after singing. Two other endocannabinoids, palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) and oleoyl ethanolamide (OEA), had high levels. Volunteers also reported experiencing improved mood and emotions after singing. The study also showed that while dancing also improved the mood, it did not affect endocannabinoid levels. And, cycling and reading only increased OEA levels.

What are the benefits of cannabis and singing?

Over the centuries, people have been using cannabis for various purposes. In recent years, research was focused on figuring out the medicinal properties of cannabis. This has helped us explore the various benefits of medical cannabis. The most common reasons for people to use medical cannabis are –

• Chronic pain
• Muscle spasms
• Nausea and vomiting
• Post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSD)
• Appetite disorders

While singing may have its own significant benefits, researchers are looking to find more about it. However, some investigation has shown its efficacy for certain conditions such as –

• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD)
• Depression
• Anxiety
• Alzheimer’s disorder

But more evidence is needed to reach any conclusion about these health benefits of singing. Although we can think that it may have some positive effects because of its interaction with the ECS. Now, let’s tackle a very important question – what effect does cannabis have on your singing voice?

Does cannabis have a good or bad impact on your singing voice?

We just read about some potential benefits of both cannabis and singing on our physical and mental health. But there are some drawbacks that we can not ignore. The first thing that we need to consider here is that most people consume cannabis by smoking. There’s no denying that this process could actually be bad for your voice. Whether you are smoking tobacco or cannabis, it will harm your throat and lungs. Some even say that smoking cannabis is more harmful to the voice than tobacco. This is because it burns at a higher temperature. Also, when you smoke cannabis, you tend to smoke it without a filter. You inhale cannabis smoke more deeply and hold it for longer than the cigarette smoke.

A 2019 study showed that people who smoked had dark vocal folds (as shown by laryngoscopy). The study also showed that cannabis can even cause injury to throats and lungs because of the by-product of smoking. Some of the adverse effects of smoking cannabis on the voice include –

• Hoarseness
• Dry throat
• Unclear articulation
• Low-pitched voice
• Altered voice rhythm and fluency

But can quitting smoking cannabis improve your voice?

Studies show that switching to a vape or simple stop smoking can reduce respiratory problems. However, the impact of quitting cannabis on the voice is not clear. Chances are that it will help. But if you still have to consume cannabis, choosing another way to consume it can help. Thankfully, we now have a lot of options when it comes to consuming cannabis.

One of the best ways to consume cannabis is cannabis edibles. You can enjoy all the benefits of cannabis without putting your vocal cords or lungs at risk of getting damaged. Also, these cannabis edibles are very versatile and suit every taste. You can even find cannabis or CBD-infused lozenges on the market. These are a great option for you if you are looking to use cannabis but still want to soothe your throat.

Are there any potential benefits of cannabis for singers?

If you are not smoking cannabis, instead choose another method, it may actually offer some benefits for you. For example, THC and CBD have anti-inflammatory properties. They can provide muscle relaxation. They can also help in relaxing the throat and jaw, the two vital components of singing. Therefore, we can say that this magical herb can offer some benefits to your singing.

If you are looking to maximize the potential benefits of cannabis for your singing, try using either lozenges or syrup. By mixing a spoonful of cannabis honey and herbal tea, you can also try to make your own soothing beverage. Also, remember to keep plenty of warm or room-temperature water with you when singing. This is important because cannabis can cause dry mouth.Must Visit: Life Live Healthy

For many experiencing chronic conditions, cannabis can help them promote wellness. As medical marijuana is legal in 33 states currently, you need to apply for 420 evaluations Bakersfield to access state-licensed dispensaries.

Research says that the cannabinoids (such as THC and CBD) work by correcting the endocannabinoid deficiency. The endocannabinoid system is a biological system of the body. It contains a wide range of endocannabinoids, receptors, and metabolic enzymes that help in regulating various bodily functions. These include sleep, memory, mood, sleep, etc.

In this post, we are going to discuss what is the endocannabinoid deficiency & how to improve the ECS function?

What’s Endocannabinoid Deficiency?

Ethan Russo M.D., Director of Research and Development of the International Cannabis and Cannabinoids Institute says that clinical endocannabinoid deficiency can lead to the development of certain conditions. These include fibromyalgia, migraine, irritable bowel syndrome, etc. The ECS is available in various systems in the body, and the ECS dysfunction may lead to certain conditions, and cannabis can help in managing them.

Research says that these illnesses occur due to deficiency in endocannabinoid levels. This is similar to the deficiency of neurotransmitters such as serotonin for the development of some conditions. In other words, the deficiency of endocannabinoids can affect the ECS function.

According to the Clinical Endocannabinoid Deficiency Reconsidered published by Ethan B. Russo, in migraine and fibromyalgia sufferers, significant differences of the endocannabinoid anandamide were found. Moreover, decreased ECS function resulted in Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). There are clinical data available showing cannabinoid treatment and lifestyle changes that can help in reducing pain, boosting sleep, and managing other issues associated with ECS dysfunction.

According to the study, “If endocannabinoid function were decreased, it follows that a lowered pain threshold would be operative, along with derangements of digestion, mood, and sleep among the almost universal physiological systems subserved by the endocannabinoid system (ECS).”

The study also reported that there can be some other reasons for endocannabinoid deficiency, such as genetic, injury, or disease.

Correcting Endocannabinoid Deficiency With Marijuana

Cannabis comprises more than 100 chemical compounds. These compounds possess amazing medicinal properties. THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is a psychoactive compound that can provide pain relief and many other health benefits.

When THC is delivered into the body, it binds to receptors (both CB1 and CB2) in the endocannabinoid system as endocannabinoids do. This helps in delivering positive effects on the body and mind.

Another major compound found in the marijuana plant is CBD (cannabidiol). Unlike THC, it doesn’t cause high effects. CBD helps in relaxing the body, boosting sleep, reducing depression, etc.

However, scientists aren’t completely sure how exactly CBD works with the endocannabinoid system. But, it doesn’t attach to the cannabinoid receptors just like THC does. The compound helps prevent the breakdown of endocannabinoids. Some researchers believe that cannabidiol binds to the receptors that haven’t been found yet.

Should you start with cannabis treatment on your own?

Well, marijuana doesn’t work the same way for everyone. Its effects depend on various factors, such as your body’s metabolism rate, dosage, the severity of your condition, strains you are taking, and consumption method. Thus, you should talk to a licensed doctor, and seek medical advice for what’s right for your condition.

Accessing Cannabis Legally

In the United States, cannabis is still illegal as per federal regulations. It’s considered as a Schedule I Drug. However, many states have legalized marijuana for medical purposes. Thus, patients suffering from severe conditions can use cannabis for managing their symptoms.

To apply for 420 evaluations Bakersfield, you need to talk to a licensed doctor who will carefully analyze your condition asking you various questions about your health. If approved, you will get an MMJ letter. In California, a medical marijuana card is valid for 1 year from the date it’s issued. After that, you need to renew it for another year.

During the coronavirus lockdown, visiting a doctor’s clinic is full of risks. However, you can use telemedicine to talk to an MMJ doctor online and get your medical marijuana recommendation letter in PDF format through the email.

Some Natural Ways to Boost The ECS

The endocannabinoid system helps the body to function properly. There’s no medicine to boost the ECS. However, various methods can do this. These include-

Regular Exercise

Exercising helps in reducing anxiety and depression along with boosting physical health. It’s also effective in boosting sleep. When you exercise, your body releases more anandamide, a chemical that is associated with happiness and pleasure. Some quick exercises such as running, walking, etc. can help you get great results.

Manage Stress & Limit Alcohol Intake

Stress can lead to various health issues. It slows down the repair process of new receptors. Heavy drinking provides similar effects. High levels of the stress hormone cortisol can affect the functioning of CB1 receptors. Reducing alcohol intake can provide various benefits such as improved sleep, boosted mood, weight loss, etc.

Eat Healthy Foods

What you eat at breakfast, lunch, and dinner has a direct impact on your health. Fried foods with trans-fats and other unhealthy foods are bad for the endocannabinoid system. So, you should stop eating them from today. Instead, eat more green vegetables and fruits.

Get Adequate Sleep

Sleep is vital for both mental and physical health. If you haven’t slept well, you can’t focus on work. Getting a proper amount of sleep can help you to relax your body & mind, prevent excess weight gain, heart disease, and various other health problems. It also helps in reducing stress, thus managing issues related to it. So, make sure you sleep at least eight hours a day. 

To sleep better at night, avoid consuming caffeine before going to bed, quiet drinking, optimize your bedroom environment and temperature, and take a bath.

The Conclusion

The endocannabinoid system (ECS) plays a key role in the proper functioning of the body. There’s scientific evidence that endocannabinoid deficiency can lead to the development of various illnesses, such as fibromyalgia, migraine, irritable bowel syndrome, etc.

Researchers have found that correcting endocannabinoid deficiencies can help in boosting mood, memory, appetite, reducing stress, etc., thus managing various chronic illnesses. Cannabis contains cannabinoids that are similar to endocannabinoids present in the endocannabinoid system. When these cannabinoids are delivered into the body, they bind to certain receptors, thus improving the ECS function.

However, there are some natural ways to boost the ECS, such as regular exercise, eating right, limiting alcohol intake, managing stress, and getting adequate sleep.

If you are considering using cannabis for improving the ECS function, talk to a licensed doctor to seek professional advice for marijuana strains, consumption methods, and dosage.

When it comes to ADD/ADHS, there is a lot of trouble one goes through on matters of concentrating on tasks. This can be problematic as without concentration it is difficult to get any work done. However, cannabis is a great way to stay focused and get your work done quickly and efficiently. You, however, need to be careful about the strain that you choose as that is what will determine the end result. 

Certain strains will be able to help you stay focused whereas others can push your head completely off the rails. Plus, as far as research goes only anecdotal exists. So, if you want to try out, go and get a 420 evaluation to begin with. 

Finding the perfect strain is a bit of a trial and error situation. The first thing you need to understand is the kind of experience you are aiming for. They can be either  THC dominant, CBD dominant or a balanced THC/CBD strain. 

As you will see in the list we have included all kinds of strains that help people manage their condition. Apart from the cannabinoids, you should also have a look at the terpenes. Those are the aromatic compounds that give the strain its flavor, smell and to some extent the effects.

Cinex

This is the strain that you go for when your cup of coffee just was not strong enough. This imparts a euphoric high that is great for unlocking your creative side. This strain even has the power to make you feel happy about doing tasks that otherwise mundane. However, if you are someone who is susceptible to anxiety and racing thoughts, stay away, it might worsen your condition. 

This is a THC dominant strain with limonene, caryophyllene, pinene. 

Sour Diesel

This is a famous one for good reason. Sour diesel is a high rated strain for focus as it has the ability to give you new energy to shine a light on activities and tasks. The euphoric high helps the mind stay nimble but you need to be very careful about the dose you take. If you overdo a potent strain like Sour diesel then it can end up having the opposite effect to what you want.

This a THC dominant strain with myrcene, limonene, and caryophyllene. 

Harle-Tsu

This is a particularly mild strain which is a cross between Sour Tsunami and Harlequin. It helps you ease into a clear-headed calmness which has next to no intoxicating effects.

Green Crack

This is a Snoop Dogg favorite. It is because these effects are so intensely stimulating that people are often a little too over. Green Crack sharpens every sense and brings about a sense of vibrancy to the dull colors all around. The taste profile is citrus-based and often described as enticing.

This is a THC dominant strain with ocimene, caryophyllene, and myrcene.

Harlequin

This strain has a calming physical sensation that is coupled with an agile cerebral focus. If the concentration is hard to come by then this one is a good choice. The ratio constantly fluctuates depending on the grower. The typical ratio is 5:2 of CBD: THC.

This is a balanced strain with caryophyllene, pinene, and myrcene. 

ADD/ADHD is a problem that poses a lot of challenges to a person’s productivity levels. This is why the addition of medical cannabis can help out a lot of people in our day to day lives.

Several studies have shown that CBD, a non-psychoactive compound of the plant can help people feel relaxed. In fact, since the advent of CBD’s therapeutic benefits, it is safe to say that more and more Americans have been using CBD products to treat a variety of medical conditions. CBD gummies are one of them. They come in different colors and doses. This is why, when you are consuming CBD gummies for anxiety, you eat a small amount and let the effect of the gummies set in. However, ensure that you get yourself evaluated first. For instance, if you live in Bakersfield, get a Bakersfield 420 evaluation. The evaluation will help you recognize the need for medical marijuana use and the potential side effects it can have on your body. 

Even though anxiety can be treated with the help of various other methods, people are gradually turning to cannabinoids for the treatment of anxiety and even you can treat your anxiety issues with the help of cannabis. But first, let us see if research approves the use of CBD gummies for anxiety. 

CBD Gummies and Anxiety

A study published in the Permanente journal in 2019, experimented with the effects of CBD on anxiety patients. The study found out that cannabidiol can be beneficial for anxiety-related disorders. Not only this but the study also went on to say that more controlled clinical trials are required to summarize the potential benefits of CBD for anxiety patients.

However, if we look at this study, in particular, it included 103 adult patients suffering from anxiety disorders. All the patients were administered with CBD and the results were quite bewildering. 79% of the patients showed improvement in the first month. Anxiety levels diminished and remained the same during the time period of the study. In addition to this, the sleep score also improved and 66% of the patients witnessed better sleep with CBD in their system. 

So, can you consume CBD gummies for anxiety?

The answer to this question is yes, but you have to keep a lot of things in mind. For instance, you have to make sure that cannabis use is legal in your state. 33+ Americans states have legalized marijuana for medicinal use. If you live in any of these states, you are good to go. You can first start by taking your evaluation from a licensed and ex[erineced doctor. But make sure the doctor lives in your city. Like a resident of Bakersfield can get medical marijuana in Bakersfield. 

Additionally, there are some other vital things that you have to weigh before consuming cannabis. First and foremost make sure you are taking the right dose of gummies because any cannabis-infused edible does not produce instant reactions. This is why people often tend to eat more than required and end up facing the side effects. Also, factors like weight, body mass, metabolism, and body weight will play a huge role. In other words, if 25 mg of cannabis work for your friend, the same might not work for you. You might likely have to increase the dose or decrease as your body demands. So, dose plays a vital role in alleviating the symptoms of anxiety.

How many CBD gummies should I have to control my anxiety?

First thing first. It is not easy to find the right amount of dosage. Especially in the case of CBD gummies. They come with specific CBD infusions. Some might have 10mg CBD in them, others will have 5mg. This is to say that you have to start by experimenting with each dose. Say you started taking a 10mg dose every day but unfortunately you did not see any signs of improvement. In such cases, you can directly get in touch with your doctor and let him decide the due course. In most cases, the doctor will increase the dose and help you decide which particular dose works for your body. 

Bottom Line 

If your doctor thinks that your condition qualifies for the usage of medical marijuana use. Then go visit a nearby dispensary and buy some CBD gummies. Don’t chew on the entire gummy and always start with a single bite. Next, let the effect set in and then see if it worked for you or not. Also, make sure that the gummies are derived from industrial hemp. As long as you choose gummies made of cannabidiol derived from industrial hemp, you will never face serious health issues.
