CBD Benefits: Pain & Inflammation

Researchers are discovering more and more how natural CBD is effective against inflammation, and studies have pointed to multiple ways this natural molecule is anti-inflammatory. Here are some of the ways researchers think CBD combats inflammation.

PPARγ

CBD influences a wide variety of molecules by stimulating the PPARγ receptor, which tells your DNA to change which genes it expresses. CBD’s potential for Alzheimer’s disease, multiple sclerosis and ulcerative colitis have been linked to the PPARγ receptor — which also reduces production of inflammatory molecules while increasing the production of antioxidants.

Prostaglandins

CBD is effective at relieving menstrual cramps, a large cause for this seems to be that CBD inhibits COX-2, which is an enzyme responsible for producing inflammatory prostaglandins.

Tumor necrosis factor (TNFα)

Based on recent studies on animal subjects, CBD’s effectiveness at protecting joints against inflammation is linked to its ability to reduce the body’s production of inflammatory tumor necrosis factor (TNFα).

These, and more reasons, are why so many people are incorporating CBD products into their anti-inflammatory routine. Good Vibes offers a wide variety of high-quality CBD products to help fight inflammation and alleviate pain.
