If you’re looking for the best CBD oil for anxiety, we’ve found a product that seems to be popular with people experiencing anxiety.

Anxiety can come in many forms. The Mayo Clinic describes some examples of anxiety disorders “…include generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder (social phobia), specific phobias and separation anxiety disorder. You can have more than one anxiety disorder. Sometimes anxiety results from a medical condition that needs treatment.”

Remember it’s important to speak with your medical professional about adding CBD to your health regime. Anxiety can be caused by underlying health conditions like heart disease or diabetes.

The best CBD Oil for Anxiety: How does CBD help anxiety?

As far back as 1993 researchers have been looking at CBD to treat anxiety. A study was done by A. W. Zuardi, R. A. Cosme, F. G. Graeff and F. S. Guimarães, Effects of ipsapirone and cannabidiol on human experimental anxiety which found in human subjects “The results suggest that ipsapirone and CBD have anxiolytic (anti-anxiety) properties in human volunteers submitted to a stressful situation.”

Then in 2011 more research was conducted that found “Relative to placebo, CBD was associated with significantly decreased subjective anxiety”. This study titled Neural basis of anxiolytic effects of cannabidiol (CBD) in generalized social anxiety disorder: a preliminary report  looked at the underlying brain mechanisms to try and understand how CBD works to help with anxiety.

We’re still discovering how CBD works, but the answer to how it helps with anxiety may lie in the Endocannabinoid System or the ECS.

Introducing the Endocannabinoid System

Every mammal on planet Earth has an Endocannabinoid System or ECS. The ECS is a biological system that includes endocannabinoids which are cannabinoids that our bodies produce naturally.

Cannabidiol or CBD interacts with these ECS receptors located throughout the body. The ECS system is known to regulate a number of physiological and cognitive processes in the body including:

  • appetite
  • stress response
  • pain-sensation
  • mood
  • memory
  • contributing to exercise-induced euphoria
  • modulating locomotor activity

It’s not hard to imagine that a system that impacts so many critical body functions should be kept in “balance”.  This balance is often referred to as homeostasis. Many people believe that generalized social anxiety disorder or SAD is related to the ECS being out of balance.

CBD may help to bring the ECS into homeostasis and help to regulate these stress response and mood processes.

The best CBD Oil for Anxiety: What we have found

Looking for the best CBD oil for anxiety, we followed our general approach to selecting a reputable CBD company. You can read more about the Three things you need to know before buying CBD here.

In selecting the Best CBD Oil for Anxiety we’ve found that a Full Spectrum CBD Oil is most likely to show benefits. This is probably due to the “entourage effect” from whole plant CBD that is not processed to the point where it only contains CBD.

Receptra Naturals makes a product called Receptra Plus that seems to be perfect for those wanting to try CBD for anxiety.  Here’s what we like about this product:

  • Made from organically grown hemp in Colorado
  • Full Spectrum or Whole Plant formula
  • Concentration at 40 milligrams of CBD per dropper
  • Competitive price point

If you would like to try this product yourself, you can find the latest pricing here 

Pro Tip: If you would like to try CBD for a lower price, just select the Receptra Prime product that comes in a half ounce size and is priced at only $39.95 (at the time of this writing).  It’s half the strength of the Plus product, but it’s a good choice to see if it works for you.

The Risks of taking CBD Oil for Anxiety

CBD is considered to be non-toxic even in large amounts. A study in 2011 found CBD to be initially safe.

“Several studies suggest that CBD is non-toxic in non-transformed cells and does not induce changes on food intake, does not induce catalepsy, does not affect physiological parameters (heart rate, blood pressure and body temperature), does not affect gastrointestinal transit and does not alter psychomotor or psychological functions. Also, chronic use and high doses up to 1,500 mg/day of CBD are reportedly well tolerated in humans. Conversely, some studies reported that this cannabinoid can induce some side effects, including inhibition of hepatic drug metabolism, alterations of in vitro cell viability, decreased fertilization capacity, and decreased activities of p-glycoprotein and other drug transporters. Based on recent advances in cannabinoid administration in humans, controlled CBD may be safe in humans and animals. However, further studies are needed to clarify these reported in vitro and in vivo side effects.”

Conclusions

While continuing research into CBD and the role it might play in helping people with anxiety is needed, the current CBD products on the market might be worth trying.

Can CBD oil for Dogs help with anxiety?

National Public Radio did an article about CBD and dogs with anxiety.  They found while some vets have found CBD to be a great treatment, many vets acknowledge that we just don’t have long-term studies on how CBD might affect canines.

Since CBD is non-toxic and has been tested in dogs in short-term studies with no negative effects owners that feel a more “natural” approach than giving your nervous family member a medication, CBD oil for dogs is a great place to start. As long as you get your dog’s CBD from an outstanding company it’s a pretty safe way to try and ease some anxiety that dogs can get from fireworks, strange surroundings, thunderstorms and even unknown household guests.

CBD OIL FOR DOGS WITH PAIN

cbd oil for dogs
Some pet owners are trying CBD Oil For Older Dogs.

Here’s the great news; for owners that feel a more “natural” approach than giving your older family member pain relievers, CBD oil for dogs is a great place to start. As long as you get your dog’s CBD from an outstanding company it’s a pretty safe way to try and ease some suffering we all get as we get older.

It’s also a great addition to those pills the vet gives you. Some CBD oil for dogs users have found they can cut back or even stop other pills after starting their dog on CBD.

Of course consulting with your vet before starting any change with your dog is a great idea. While the news is spreading fast don’t be surprised if your vet hasn’t heard or thinks CBD is untested.

CBD Oil For Dogs with Seizures

cbd oil for dogs with seizures
We’ve heard stories of dogs with seizures having amazing success.

This is perhaps the best-known benefit of CBD. We’ve heard stories of it stopping seizures when nothing else would in both people and humans. If you have a dog with seizures get your vet to approve some CBD as soon as possible.

How to pick a CBD Company for your Dog’s CBD?

There are lots of things to consider when choosing a CBD Oil for Dogs. We’ve put together a quick read that should help you out:

Is CBD For Dogs?

You might have heard a few things about CBD for dogs. Good dog owners do a little research before we give our furry friends something new and we’ve combined what every dog owner should know about CBD for dogs.

Can CBD for Dogs be harmful?

cbd for dogs with painHere’s the great news: CBD is non-toxic.

But dogs can be very sensitive to cannabinoids, so it’s best to start with a low dose, and slowly increase it.

Here’s the other funny thing about CBD; it has what’s called a biphasic dose response. The simple way to explain it is “taking more CBD doesn’t make it work better”. Think of it this way; aspirin doesn’t work like CBD. The more aspirin you take, the more relief you feel.  Take one for a little pain, take two for more pain.

With CBD the perfect dose might be one and a half pills. At that dose, you get the full effect. If you took two pills it might actually feel less effective than the one and a half pills.

Find a Good Quality CBD Oil Liquid for Dogs

Benefits of CBD for DogsA good benefit of CBD for dogs in a quality tincture is the ability to dose in drops. This is particularly important with small dogs that require a small dose of CBD.

And sometimes treat makers spray a CBD liquid on the treats after they are produced. This can cause irregularities in how much CBD is actually in each treat.

Most CBD oils for dogs are mixed with an oil like MCT which is a great choice even for dogs with the most sensitive stomachs. Drops also give you the chance to add the CBD to picky eaters favorite foods.

LOOK FOR CBD TEST RESULTS FOR THE PRODUCT

Hemp is a great reclamation plant. That means it pulls heavy metals from the soil it grows in. Wonderful if you’re trying to clean up some land, but this is why all hemp CBD products need to be tested.

When looking for the best cbd for dogs, make sure you can view the actual test result from the batch of hemp oil your product was made with. These are often called Certificates of Analysis or COA and are often displayed online for your review.

You’ll want to make sure they test for heavy metals like lead, residual solvents, yeasts, molds, and coliforms.

The COA should also tell you exactly how much CBD is in the bottle and each dose.

Does CBD Actually Work for Dogs?

cbd dog oilThere are many things that people are treating their dogs with CBD. We’ve heard stories of it helping dramatically with seizures. Older dogs with painful hips from hip dysplasia can sometimes get some dramatic relief. CBD has been shown to help with inflammation so any issue related to that it’s worth trying CBD for. CBD for Dogs with Anxiety has also been a widely reported use.

Our favorite CBD for Dogs is Receptra Naturals Pet. They have test results right on the website, and they make a really quality product that we give our dogs daily.

The Sacred Plant CBD Video Series

The Best CBD Oil we have found.

Here at HFHN we’ve discovered the Sacred Plant CBD video series that tells the amazing story of the Cannabis plant. The series is an amazing presentation of the history and power of this amazing plant.

While the Sacred Plant CBD is not the main focus, it gives an incredible explanation of where medical science has progressed in understanding how The Sacred Plant is so helpful.

Is Sacred Plant CBD Changing The Medical World

sacred-plant-cbdThe Sacred Plant video series brings up the very real issue of the pharmaceutical companies feeling Cannabis is a competitor. These are complicated issues and it’s frustrating for people who are just seeking relief. At HFHN we’ve always felt that education with Cannabis is crucial. Our favorite reader is one that has taken the time to educate themselves. Unfortunately, we can’t always count on the world of western medicine to bring up a non-traditional solution.

Will CBD Help Me?

Maybe.

That’s the only honest answer anyone can give. Education is key to deciding if it’s right for you. Some things that might interest you:

  • Just like anything else, there are some websites that are scamming people buying CBD. It’s easy to prevent it happening to you.
  • Find a good quality CBD product you can trust. I recommend Receptra. It’s the best quality CBD I have found and the price is very reasonable for the quality.
  • Educate yourself! You know it’s important if you’re online reading this now. It really is an amazing education.

Here at Hemp For Health News, we are proud to bring you the best most honest opinions about Hemp CBD Oil products. Feel free to leave comments below! We always love to get feedback from our readers and promise that we read every comment even if we don’t get the chance to respond to everyone immediately!

CBD Scams are happening daily

With the popularity of CBD rising fast there will be people trying to take advantage of people seeking relief. It’s unfortunate that this happens, but there are always things we can do to protect ourselves.

The Free CBD Scams

free cbd oil“Only the mousetrap has free cheese” is a good proverb to remember when tempted to take a company up on an offer of “Free CBD”. There are two main reasons these CBD Scams are created.

Some “Free” offers are actually a hidden subscription agreement. You give your credit card, they charge a small shipping and handling fee for the “free bottle”. What they don’t tell you is in the fine print you are agreeing to a subscription. The next month they charge you again, and again the next month.

THE “NOT WORTH THE BOTTLE IT’S IN” CBD SCAMs

Some “Free” offers are making money with shipping and handling. If you pay $12 for shipping and handling for a “Free” bottle of CBD you might be getting what you paid for.

A glass bottle, stopper, and label might cost $1. Fill it full of hemp seed oil from the grocery store that only costs you about twenty-five cents, and $3 to mail it puts the total cost at less than $5. So the company sending you “Free” oil makes over $7 with every “Free” bottle they mail out.

TOO MUCH FOR TOO LITTLE CBD SCAMs

When purchasing CBD it’s all about the milligrams you get. It doesn’t matter if you believe in isolate CBD or Full Spectrum Whole Plant CBD or even in Marijuana or Hemp CBD… at the end of the day any CBD you buy make sure you know what you are paying for the milligrams of CBD you are getting.

A large 3 oz bottle of CBD for only $49.99 might seem like a great deal. But if that bottle only contains 100 milligrams of CBD in those 3 ounces you are actually paying fifty cents a milligram for the CBD.

Another 2 oz bottle of CBD sells for $199.95. Much more expensive for a smaller bottle, but this bottle contains 3,000 milligrams of CBD. That’s $199.95 divided by 3,000 that gives us .06 cents per milligram. That’s a pretty good deal if you can get it for pure CBD oil.

TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE… IT PROBABLY IS

CBD ScamsAs miraculous as the hemp plant is, remember if someone is trying to sell you something and your gut tells you this is too good a deal… follow your instincts.

There are plenty of reputable Hemp CBD companies that are producing quality products at a fair price. Do your research and don’t be afraid to pick up the phone and call a company. I’m always impressed with the Receptra Naturals customer service team if you have a few minutes give them a call if you have hemp questions. They are in Denver Colorado and can be reached at 303.CBD.1663 (303.223.1663).

There are enough wonderful people who believe in the power of hemp to heal that are producing great products it’s likely you can find a quality product that is right for you.

It’s not hard to find both scientific data and personal testimonials on the benefits of cannabidiol. We hear so many wonderful stories each day on how hemp extracts have helped people that had given up hope.

But it’s important to know the downside of purchasing hemp extracts.

CBD Oil Industrial Hemp
Don’t buy CBD made with “Industrial Hemp”! That’s the type of hemp grown for rope, not CBD Oil!

1. ALL HEMP EXTRACTS MUST BE TESTED FOR CONTAMINATES

The hemp plant is well documented as a powerful remediation crop. With its deep roots, hemp pulls heavy metals from the ground it’s grown in. Even hemp grown using organic practices will pull cadmium from the soil.

For this reason, you should NEVER buy CBD products that don’t display test results on their website. Don’t just assume because CBD companies use words like “Tested” and “Trusted” that they are doing complete tests on their products.

View the tests yourself and ask the company if you have any questions. Here are the type of tests you should see results for:

Heavy metals
Molds, yeasts, and coliforms
Residual solvents

Look for our full article on how to read a CBD products Certificate of Analysis soon!

2. CHECK THE COST PER MILLIGRAM

cbd oil bottlesThe price range for CBD products is all over the board. Some shady sites offer “free” CBD oil for $15 shipping and handling. Other companies sell bottles that exceed $1,000.

It’s easy to get scammed by all the questionable CBD companies that are popping up. Here’s a guaranteed way to make sure you are getting a deal.

To find out the value of a CBD product do this quick calculation:

Total Price of Product / Total Number of Milligrams CBD

For example, a bottle with 250 milligrams of CBD that sold for $59 would be $59/250 = $0.236 or about 24 cents per milligram.

Another product selling for $199 with 3000 milligrams would be $199/3000 = $0.066 or about 7 cents per milligram.

This simple math will make sure you get a good deal!

3. TAKE ADVICE FROM A FRIEND

I’ve been using CBD for over four years now. I’ve tried nearly 154 types of CBD. I’ve read articles and talked with company CEOs about their products.

After all this research I’ve picked what I believe is a CBD company that is doing everything right.

That company is Receptra Naturals.

They grow their own hemp on 100% family farms in Colorado. Their testing is the most transparent in the industry and their test results are remarkable.

And their prices are some of the most competitive out there.

I’ve personally spoken with the CEO and believe in their vision to help.

If you’re ready to try CBD products, There are three products I recommend.

If you are looking for hemp extract because of a health crisis or chronic condition, I suggest starting with their Receptra Prime. You can get a small bottle for as little as $39.95 but when you repurchase buy the bigger bottles because the price per milligram goes down as bottle size goes up.

If you are looking for hemp extract to enhance your physical performance, Receptra is your perfect choice. Start with the Receptra Elite. They have a cheaper product called Receptra Active, but go for the Elite. Receptra Elite includes turmeric as well as hemp extract. The Elite starts at $74.95 and comes in at only $0.07 per milligram including the turmeric!

The last Receptra product I would recommend to everyone is their Targeted Topical. This is a really special product. Packed with 400 milligrams of cannabinoids per ounce it’s the strongest topical I have found. If you ever have sore hands, feet, neck or knees get this product. It’s a steal at $39.95. Buy two!

Of course, all Receptra Naturals products are tested and the results for all of their pure CBD oil products are shown on the website.

Any questions or comments please ask them below! I try to respond to everyone!
