CBD Oil for Beginners

Updated: Jun 11, 2020

Many of you have probably considered trying CBD, but may have resisted because you don't know enough about it. In the last few years CBD trended in stores and on social media, but the product has stayed popular because of the health benefits many have experienced by using it.

Where do you start? 

There are so many different sources of information today that it can be hard to know what to use and how to use it to for your own health and wellness journey. Here is a quick and easy guide to CBD to get you started.


What is CBD Oil? 

CBD stands for cannabidiol. It is a substance found in cannabis products, but there is an important distinction to be made: it does NOT contain THC, the chemical that produces a “high.” There are many benefits to CBD, and without the THC aspect, the major benefits are safe for those who would not be able to utilize cannabis due to the THC. 


What are the amazing benefits of CBD? In your body, there is a system called the endocannabinoid system that helps to regulate systems in your body that control things like pain, digestive issues, and anxiety. That system uses cannabinoids to improve function. High stress and illness can deplete those cannabinoid stores, and that is when issues with our bodies can begin. The use of CBD products restores the cannabinoids and seems to offer people relief from those issues. 

The long and short of it? CBD seems to find the missing piece and fills it in a natural, easy to consume, healthy way. 


Who could benefit? 

There are plenty of people who can benefit from CBD oil, but the many stigmas surrounding it make it so most people don’t fully understand the wide array of benefits it provides. 

Here are a few of the things CBD has been known to help: 

  • PTSD

  • Anxiety 

  • Depression 

  • Nausea (especially as it relates to chemotherapy and other treatments)

  • Joint pain 

  • Arthritis 

  • Digestive Issues

  • Inflammation 

  • Parkinson’s and major autoimmune dysfunctions

  • + So much more!  

What’s next? We encourage you to do your own research!


Do a quick search to double-check it is legal in your state. Most states recognize the benefits and have legalized CBD Oil.

Find a HIGH-QUALITY CBD Oil from a reputable company. This is a super important! No two oils are made the same, and like so many other products, there are several versions of less effective products.
