There are several studies that link CBD to an increase in life expectancy by about 20 percent, according to a publication in the journal Cannabis and Cannabinoid Research.
And the interesting thing is that this cannabidiol compound can help in many ways, creating a health condition without side effects in many areas:
Improves brain function
Preliminary studies at the Salk Institute show that CBD can remove beta-amyloid plaque from brain cells by inhibiting the inflammatory response caused by the protein.
There are studies that prove that CBD oil when given regularly improves memory and performance on cognitive tests.
Helps the healing of bone fractures
CBD increases bone mineralization by 35 to 50% when compared to a group of individuals without supplementation.
Promotes improvements in physical appearance
It acts by increasing the synthesis of collagen, and thereby leaves the skin and muscles firmer. In addition, it neutralizes oxidative stress.
Controls blood pressure
Hypertension increases the risk of heart attacks and strokes, kidney disease, vision loss, metabolic syndrome, and cognitive decline.
According to a study that analyzed the blood pressure and cognitive abilities of 7,000 people, the higher the blood pressure, the greater the cognitive decline.
In another study published in the European Journal of Internal Medicine, researchers found that Medicinal Cannabis can reduce blood pressure in older adults.
And surprisingly these results were achieved with a dose of only 600 mg of CBD oil.
Reduces oxidation and inflammation
This property of CBD is responsible for reducing symptoms of aging, from wrinkle reduction, to the cell death associated with heart disease.
Improves sleep quality
Older adults need about nine hours of sleep a day, according to the study published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine.
Thus they preserve the immune system, inhibit inflammation, reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, depression, and maintain good brain function.
According to research by Center for Applied Health Sciences, healthy adults who took CBD oil showed about 22% improvement in sleep quality and quantity.
Other researchers, who followed for one month 72 patients who took CBD, found that 79% were less anxious and 67% reported improvements in sleep quality.
