CBD oil has been explored to benefit human beings, by virtue of its analgesic properties, tranquility, anti-anxiety impact and strong healing power. CBD industry is growing rapidly in US, Canada and other regions of the world; as the vast range of physiological and psychological benefits make this product significant to consume for maintaining good health. People have started relying of CBD as their anxiety and mood controlling drug and they consume it on regular basis without getting any adverse effects.
CBD is the naturally extracted “Cannabinoid” distinguished on the basis of its non psychoactive impact unlike other “Cannabinoids” and is legally permitted. One of the famous psychoactive “Cannabinoids” is THC (Marijuana extract); it can make one high and disturbs the physiological environment of the body and is restricted in many regions.
CBD along with above mentioned medicinal uses is also considered to play role in reducing unwanted body fat by triggering CB1 and CB2 receptors. These receptors somehow relate to increasing and decreasing obesity by virtue of their function.
Threatening rate of obesity in US:
Obesity has become a nightmare for people of US. In US it has become one of the most prominent health issues, since last few decades. The recent statistics provided by the BRFSS (2018) show an alarming situation in regards of obesity in almost all states of US. Other than Colorado rest all states have obesity rate of higher than 25% whereas few states also have 35% and above.
Obesity is not an isolated medical condition but it brings along the risk of several other diseases and disorders. Obese individuals are at high risk of cardiac disorders, hyperglycemia, hypertension and fatigue. It causes sluggishness and damages the creativity of the people. Obese individuals are usually found mentally and physically less active as compare to others.
Luckily the adverse effects of obesity could be reversed to some extent by reducing weight and maintaining healthy lifestyle.
Controlling weight and reducing impacts of obesity is another debate; there are several methods of weight reduction by CBD adopted by the people across the globe. Few famous methods include, improving body fat ratio by increasing physical activity i.e. burning calories or reducing calorie intake by choosing right diet.
Endocannabinoid system:
Cannabinoids extracted from cannabis flora is involved in the direct regulation of Endocrine system. Different physiological functions performed by human body are dependent upon endocrinal secretions or hormones. Indeed, Cannabinoids or CBD does not have any direct impact of CB1 and CB2 receptors but work as catalyst of different processes.
For controlling obesity and reducing extra body fat people also look forward to consuming best CBD supplements which may trigger the related receptors of the body to reduce any further fat deposition and burn the existing extra fat. It could be said as the easiest possible way of fat reduction and obesity control. Human body has an “Endocannabinoid system” which consists of endogenous lipid-based retrograde neurotransmitters.
These neurotransmitters bind to “Cannabinoid Receptors “which are spread throughout the human body. Many physiological functions are regulated by virtue of this system.
CB receptors and CBD:
Chemical balance of the body is mandatory for quick metabolism. Good metabolism helps to reduce the risk of fat development in the body. Referring to CB receptors and the process of CBD regulating those receptors to help control obesity and fat deposition following details are relevant. The Cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2 are found in the brain and the rest of the body respectively. According to medicinal observation CB1 receptors which are confined to brain and nervous system in normal individuals, spread throughout the fatty tissues in obese individuals. It ultimately leads to the fact that there is a relationship between obesity and CB1 receptors and by targeting CB1 receptors the chemical balance of the human body could be made feasible for fast metabolism.
Appetite and CBD oils:
It is a pre-historic assumption that weeds increases appetite. Increase of appetite has also been noticed in the THC users but CBD oil has very different impact on appetite than THC. THC directly attaches to the CB1 receptors and becomes the integral part of Endocannabinoid system causing the increased appetite but CBD could not attach directly to the CB1 receptors so it does not increase appetite. CBD improves the metabolism rate of the body preventing the process of fat development.
