The De-Stigmatization of Cannabis Hemp in the US

For decades, cannabis hemp has been viewed as an illegal and dangerous drug. To that we say, “whatever dawg, do your research”. However, in recent years there has been a significant shift in public opinion on cannabis hemp and its uses. This is largely due to the increasing number of studies that have shown the positive potential this plant can offer for medicinal purposes, and its role in providing a range of health benefits for those who use it. Let’s explore why cannabis hemp is gaining acceptance across the United States.

The Health Benefits of Cannabis Hemp

One of the primary reasons why people are becoming more accepting of cannabis hemp is because they are learning about its health benefits. Studies show that cannabis hemp can help reduce pain and inflammation, alleviate insomnia and anxiety, strengthen cognitive function, improve skin health, protect heart health, boost energy levels , and even fight cancer cells. These findings have led to an increase in demand for medical marijuana products across the United States, which has contributed to further de-stigmatizing cannabis hemp as an effective treatment option.

The Growing Legalization of Cannabis Hemp

Another factor that has contributed to the de-stigmatization of cannabis hemp is its ever-expanding legal status across America. While marijuana remains illegal on a federal level, many states have legalized it – either medically or recreationally – allowing citizens to purchase products containing both THC (the psychoactive component) and CBD (the non-psychoactive component). This has made it easier for those who wish to reap the benefits offered by this plant without fear of consequences from law enforcement officials. And with more states considering legalizing marijuana each year, it’s likely that cannabis hemp will continue to gain increased acceptance throughout the United States.

Despite its long history as an illicit drug with potentially serious consequences, cannabis hemp is slowly gaining acceptance across America thanks to growing evidence supporting its medical benefits and expanding legalization efforts at both state and federal levels. As more Americans learn about the potential applications of this plant – including pain relief, improved sleep quality, enhanced cognitive function – we are likely to see even greater de-stigmatization in years to come. Allowing customers access to high quality Cannabis Hemp products can be a great way for businesses to be part of this trend while reaping strong financial rewards at the same time.

Exploring the Endocannabinoid System

If you’re ready to read a lot of Science… then keep reading, it’s a mouthful, But we promise it’ll be incredibly insightful.

Did you know that all mammals have an endocannabinoid system (ECS)? This system is responsible for maintaining homeostasis, or balance, within the body. The ECS works to regulate a variety of bodily functions such as sleep, appetite, pain perception and response, and even mood. In this blog post, we’ll break down everything you need to know about the ECS and how it works.

What Is the Endocannabinoid System?

The ECS is composed of two primary receptors—CB1 and CB2—that are located throughout the body in various organs and tissue. These receptors interact with phytocannabinoids (cannabinoids derived from plants), which are found in cannabis products such as hemp oil and CBD oil. When these phytocannabinoids bind to CB1 or CB2 receptors, they can trigger a variety of effects throughout the body.

How Does It Work?

The ECS plays a role in regulating many different bodily processes including mood, memory, sleep patterns, immunity, inflammation levels, digestive function, metabolism, energy levels, and more. When functioning correctly, these processes work together to maintain homeostasis within the body by responding to any external stimuli or changes in environment that may affect its well-being. For example, when someone is injured or sick their immune system will activate to fight off infection or disease; however if their immune system is overactive then inflammation can result which can be detrimental to one’s health. The ECS helps keep this process regulated so that it does not get out of hand.

The Role of Phytocannbinoids

Phytocannabinoids are cannabinoids that are derived from plants such as hemp or cannabis sativa L., which contains both THC (tetrahydrocannabidiol) and CBD (cannabidiol). While THC is known for its psychoactive effects (i.e., getting “high”), CBD does not have any psychoactive properties but has been linked to a number of potential therapeutic benefits due to its interaction with the ECS receptors. Research suggests that CBD may help reduce inflammation and promote relaxation without causing any intoxicating effects like those associated with THC consumption.

Our Lotion Helps Achieve this

All mammals have an endocannabinoid system that helps maintain balance in the body by regulating a variety of functions including sleep cycles, appetite control, pain perception and response as well as mood regulation all working together to promote overall well-being. Phytocannabinoids found in hemp oil or CBD oil interact with CB1 and CB2 receptors found throughout our bodies triggering certain effects such as relief from inflammation without causing any intoxicating effects like those associated with THC consumption. Understanding how your endocannabinoid system works can help you make better decisions about supplementing your diet with products containing beneficial phytocabinoids for optimal health benefits.

We hope this blog post shed some light on why understanding your endocannabinoid system is important.

Why You Should Consider Eating to Reduce Inflammation

Many of us don’t think twice about what we put into our bodies. (ie. the bag of cheetos I had last night)  We eat whatever is convenient or tasty without considering the long-term implications it may have for our health. But did you know that the food you eat can have a significant impact on inflammation in your body? Let’s take a closer look at how the food we consume affects inflammation and what we should be eating to combat it, and go easy on yourself. Moderation is key 🙂

The Link Between Food and Inflammation

There is a growing body of scientific evidence that points to the direct correlation between inflammation and diet. Our bodies naturally produce inflammatory molecules, but when these molecules become excessive, they can cause serious health issues such as joint pain, digestive problems, heart disease, diabetes, and other autoimmune disorders. What we eat can exacerbate the production of these molecules and make existing inflammation worse.

Foods That Reduce Inflammation

Fortunately, there are certain foods that can help reduce inflammation in our bodies! These include fruits and vegetables high in antioxidants such as blueberries and broccoli; fatty fish like salmon and mackerel; nuts like walnuts; olive oil; whole grains like oats; turmeric; ginger; garlic; green tea; dark chocolate; and foods rich in vitamin D like mushrooms. Incorporating these foods into your diet will help keep inflammation in check.

13 Anti-Inflammatory Foods

In addition to reducing inflammation, eating these nutrient-rich foods offers other benefits—they provide essential vitamins and minerals that are necessary for good health, support weight loss efforts by making you feel full longer, boost energy levels throughout the day, increase mental clarity, improve digestion and gut health, strengthen bones and joints with essential omega fatty acids, stimulate muscle growth with protein sources such as nuts or fish…the list goes on, Yum.

Reducing inflammation through diet is an easy way to protect yourself from developing chronic diseases later in life. By incorporating anti-inflammatory foods into your meals each day you can enjoy all of the benefits they offer while ensuring your body is functioning optimally. Be well, and remember to enjoy every morsel.

Comparing Topical Hemp Products Versus Ingestible Hemp Products

As the popularity of hemp-based products continues to steadily rise, more and more people are looking for ways to incorporate it into their daily wellness routines. However, one of the main questions many people have is what are the differences between topical hemp products vs ingestible hemp products that your liver has to process? Let’s explore further.

Topical Hemp Products

Topical hemp products are designed to be used externally. Some popular topical forms of hemp-based products can include lotionss, salves, creams and even bath bombs. These items are applied directly onto the skin in order to target any aches or pains you may be dealing with. The effects from topicals typically hit within minutes and last for 4-6 hours on average. However, some users report feeling relief for up to 8 hours after using a topical product.

Dr. Milo’s Topical Relief Lotion is a fast-absorbing, full-spectrum NANO CBD/CBN/CBG formula. It contains all plant-derived ingredients, that offer reduced inflammation and relaxation.  It will absorb into the skin within seconds, work within minutes, and last approximately 2-4 hours. We use a NANO, full-spectrum hemp for higher potency, and faster absorption. Our unisex essential oil-based scent won’t stain your clothes so use all over your body. We like it on the insides of our wrists to soothe anxiety and on our temples for migraine relief. Massage into your aches and feel the relief.

Our Relief Lotion

In terms of effectiveness, topicals have been known to provide a localized effect but not much else beyond that. This means that if you’re looking for something that can provide relief from specific pain points such as a sore knee or an aching back, then topicals could be just what you’re looking for. The plus of using a high quality Relief Lotion such as ours, is that it absorbs directly into the affected area and doesn’t pass through your bloodstream so you liver isn’t processing the substance.

Ingestible Hemp Products

In comparison to topical hemp products, ingestible forms such as tinctures and edibles work differently because they must first pass through your body’s digestive system before taking effect. This means that it will take longer for these types of products to kick in (30 minutes – 2 hours) but once they do they will typically produce effects that last anywhere from 4-8 hours depending on how much was consumed and how sensitive someone is towards certain cannabinoids found in hemp extract. These types of products tend to produce more widespread effects which makes them ideal for treating chronic conditions like anxiety or insomnia.

If you’re wanting something that provides localized relief from pain points then look no further than topicals whereas if you’re wanting something that can help with systemic issues like anxiety or fatigue then ingestible should be your go-to option. Ultimately it all boils down to personal preference so make sure you experiment with both options before deciding which one works best for you.
