Margaryan said. &#8220;Scientifically speaking, pain is felt from neurons in our central nervous system reacting to injuries. By creating endocannabinoid receptors, CBD slows down neurons, resulting in pain relief\u2014meaning you get the same result as an ordinary pain reliever without the numerous side effects and potential dependency.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Aside from these pain relief benefits, she says cannabinoids can also help with inflammation, thanks to their ability to &#8220;reduce cytokine.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&#8220;Therefore, applying topical CBD creams releases muscle pain, inflammation, stiffness, and lymphatic drainage.&#8221; she continued, noting that the product has also helped people struggling with conditions like &#8220;eczema, psoriasis, and arthritis.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But its potential benefits don&#8217;t stop there. According to a resource from <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.health.harvard.edu\/blog\/cannabidiol-cbd-what-we-know-and-what-we-dont-2018082414476\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Harvard University,<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> several studies in both animals and humans as well as self-reported data\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">have pointed at<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> CBD&#8217;s ability to potentially assist with other ailments such as anxiety and insomnia. CBD has also been somewhat accepted by the medical community, especially as an aid in managing epilepsy.
