Curious about CBD OIl in Neath?
Within the pharmacy sector and beyond, there is a lot of controversy surrounding CBD, and whether it is beneficial in a healthcare context. Here at The Health Dispensary, we’re here to help. We have compiled this guide to help you understand whether CBD is safe, and what it can potentially do for you.
What is CBD?
CBD describes a chemical that is naturally found within a cannabis plant. This chemical is then extracted in order to be used in the products you see on the shelves, such as confectionery products, drinks and oils.
Essentially, CBD is used as a complementary remedy for a plethora of health conditions. According to a multitude of respected pharmacist experience, “it’s an analgesic just like THC; it’s anti-nausea just like THC, and generally shares all those other benefits”, without the psychoactive effects of cannabis. This means that it does not result in you becoming “high”, or alter your mental state in any way. It is commonly used in order to help ease a variety of conditions due to its broad therapeutic properties. These include:
– Chronic Pain
– Anxiety
– Nausea
– Insomnia
– Epilepsy
Comprehensive Studies such as this one, state that CBD has a high potential value in the treatment of anxiety disorders, actively soothing and reducing anxiety with an “excellent safety profile”. When used alongside pre-existing treatments or therapies, CBD has been known to enhance their effects.
Is CBD safe?
The Food Standards Agency states that healthy adults should consume no more than 70mg a day, unless they are under medical direction. It has also set a recently completed deadline of 31st March 2021 by which companies are obligated to provide more comprehensive information to those looking to purchase CBD products. This product is designed for use alongside your pre-existing medications; therefore, it is highly-recommended that you visit us for all of your CBD needs. This is because our pharmacists will be able to offer you their expert advice on how best to personalise your use of CBD to complement your medication. Moreover, as it is a complementary treatment, it may work to enhance some of the effects of your medication. We would therefore recommend asking our team for advice to avoid any potential interactions with your medication.
Are CBD products legal?
CBD oil is taken from industrial hemp, which is a legal strain of cannabis that contains little to no THC. In order to be purchased and used within the UK, CBD products must meet certain standards in terms of safety and quality. However, just because a product is for sale on the high street, this doesn’t necessarily mean they have been checked against the proper MHRA accreditation. It is recommended that you instead turn to trusted websites, or pharmacies such as ours, in order to ensure that your CBD oil in Neath is of a high quality.
Moreover, in order to be sold in the UK, CBD is not permitted to contain any more than 0.2% THC.
