While there are many treatment options available for anxiety, some people are turning to CBD gummies as a natural alternative. In this blog post, we will explore how CBD gummies can help with anxiety.

CBD gummies for anxiety

Anxiety is thought to be caused by an imbalance of neurotransmitters in the brain, such as serotonin and dopamine. CBD has been shown to interact with these neurotransmitters, as well as other receptors in the brain and body, to produce its calming effects. We have all experienced moments of increased stress and anxiety, many worse than others. It can be a difficult feeling to overcome and it is not uncommon for people to take medication to help with dealing with it. CBD may offer a safe, cheap and sustainable alternative to help with anxiety and our own customer reviews, as well as those all over the world wide web, offer huge support for it!

CBD gummies may help with anxiety by promoting feelings of relaxation and reducing stress. CBD has been shown to have anxiolytic properties, meaning it may help reduce anxiety and improve mood. It does this by interacting with the endocannabinoid system (ECS), a complex network of receptors and neurotransmitters in the body that helps regulate various functions, including mood and anxiety. If you would like to know more about this please check out our blog on the ECS. By encouraging the body into homeostasis, it is thought that CBD can regulate mood and stress.

What is CBD?

CBD, or cannabidiol, is a compound found in the cannabis plant. It is one of many cannabinoids found in the plant, and it does not produce the psychoactive effects associated with THC (tetrahydrocannabinol). The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a complex network of receptors and neurotransmitters that is present in all mammals. It plays a role in regulating a variety of physiological and cognitive processes, including pain, memory, mood, appetite and more. Check out our blog on The ECS here for more information.

But what is the Endocannabinoid System?

The ECS is made up of two main receptors: CB1 and CB2. CB1 receptors are primarily found in the central nervous system, while CB2 receptors are found in the immune system and other tissues. The body's own endocannabinoids, such as anandamide and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG), bind to these receptors and activate them.

CBD can interact with the ECS by inhibiting the breakdown of endocannabinoids, such as anandamide, which can lead to an increase in their levels. CBD can also bind to and activate CB2 receptors, although it does so less effectively than THC. CBD can interact with the ECS and is thought to be responsible for some of its therapeutic effects, such as its ability to reduce inflammation and reduce anxiety.

What are the differences between full spectrum CBD, broad spectrum CBD and CBD isolate?

Full spectrum CBD oil

Full Spectrum CBD oil contains all cannabinoids present in the hemp plant. Many researchers argue that by having the full range of compounds can amplify the therapeutic potential of CBD through the “entourage effect”

Broad spectrum CBD oil

Manufacturers producing Broad Spectrum CBD take extra measures to completely eliminate THC from the oil. Broad Spectrum CBD oil will still contain many other cannabinoids in the hemp plant to give a fuller CBD profile.

CBD isolate oil

With CBD Isolate, the goal is to create a ‘pure’ CBD oil that doesn’t contain any other compounds or cannabinoids. Typically the CBD must be carefully distilled and then additional tests are carried out to ensure its composition.

What CBD oils are best for anxiety?

This is a question which will depend very much on the user. We find just as many of our customers opting for a cbd isolate based oil as we do for those looking at full spectrum or even broad spectrum oils. It is very much a question that is best tested by each person to find which CBD oils work best for them. The common advantage to CBD full spectrum oils are in regards to the well known combination of CBD with other cannabinoids called the entourage effect. The combination of other cannabinoids with CBD are said to interact with one another to have a more profound impact. However on the flip side, we find many customers who want the purest form of CBD with no further cannabinoids and for these users a CBD isolate remains their best bet.

How much CBD oil should I take?

So this brings us full circle to the heading of the blog post. Well to be honest, ultimately it depends. If you are a new user, we would typically suggest trying a CBD isolate oil and going for a small dosage in the region of 10mgs. You can then build this up over the following days and weeks to test your tolerance and see how your body reacts up to a limit of 70mg. We always remind people that you can dose far higher than this, and there are studies that have supported its safety profile as high as 1500mg per day, but we would certainly not suggest anyone to do that!

I’ve taken CBD in small doses before but now I want to try CBD for anxiety, so what do you suggest?

For a more seasoned CBD user, we might suggest trying a broad spectrum of full spectrum CBD oil but would still look to start small with a dosage in the 10-25mg category. This allows any user to build up overtime and to really test how the CBD interacts with your body and if it really aids your sleep.

Can I take CBD everyday?

Yes, you can take CBD everyday and in fact building up CBD in your system overtime can give some of the greatest benefits as opposed to one-off dosages.

Which CBD Oil is best?

We like to think variety is an important factor, and that is one reason at Associated CBD we try to hold a wide variety of CBD strengths, types and products! There is no best CBD out there, it is about what works best for you and your body.

Are there studies that can support CBD helping with anxiety?

Yes, there are plenty of studies that support CBD having effects on anxiety and many of our customers have left positive reviews for how it has supported them in this way. Some of our  blogs look in more detail at these studies.
