A lot of people want to know “what are the benefits from using hemp based products such as CBD oils and other products?”. Well that list is long, and all the answers pertain directly to personal benefit. You benefit in many ways such as your health, this is becoming known as a “super food”, taking an all natural supplement your body doesn’t have to filter out any unwanted ingredients, helping the environment by using biodegradable products and saving trees, and you can find a variety of hemp-based products readily available.
This is a wonderful product and I wish more people would start utilizing all hemp-based products, the list is long and some of the uses may amaze you, I know it did me. Like did you know that plastic can be made from hemp and its very biodegradable, talk about amazing!
I do want to stress that I do not make any claims that this product is going to increase your health, all opinions are just that, my personal beliefs and personal opinions. I cannot stress enough to research and consult with your physician before you decide to use ANY supplement.
Health Benefits
So we should get one thing perfectly clear, hemp does not contain a high amount of THC like its cousin cannabis. Rather it contains CBD which does not create the feeling of being “high” or intoxicated. It is a phytocannabinoid that has unlimited potential, its been discovered that it is beneficial to both human and animal health. Also it has the ability of affecting almost all biological processes.
That is huge!! I do encourage you to do your own research as well, Google offers a lot of information, then you can make your decisions in an educated fashion. And always consult your physician before taking any drug or supplement. Your health is your first priority afterall.
All Natural
When buying your hemp products it is important as with any product to read your ingredients. I am sure there are some companies that are adding unneccessary ingredients to their products, but for the most part you will find that hemp-based products are all natural. With as many products that contain additives this is comforting.
Helping The Environment
There are quite a few ways using hemp-based products can help the environment, biodegradable plastic is probably the biggest one I can think of with all of the issues the current plastics we are using create.
We can save the amount of trees harvested every day for paper, and some construction materials as well that are wood or made of wood products could be replaced with hemp products. Saving trees is definetly a huge part of helping the environment.
Making bio-fuel could help slow the big oil companies from drilling our natural resources away. I have always wondered what the long term effects are of removing the crude oil. Obviosly it is there for a reason and I am pretty sure the reason wasn’t to be pumped out of the ground to leave voids and create gas pockets. Why not use a plant that can regenerate at a rapid pace instead?
Variety Of Uses and Products
There are so very many products that are derived from hemp and hemp seed, and these products all have beneficial uses, and are environmentally friendly. To have such a variety of uses and benefits and to be so renewable makes this plant rank in with Super Heros to me.
The hemp seedoil does not contain much of the CBD values, but many products can be made from it, such as beauty products, lubricants, foods, paints, plastic and much more. These products are all biodegradable,
There are buiding materials that are said to be stronger than conventional materials and are more environmentally friendly. And they last longer.
We can make fabric to make clothes, bedding, draiperies, etc…. They have even made a vinyl type product from hemp fibers that is stronger than the existing vinyl. Shoes, handbags, and jewelry accessories can also be created from hemp. These products are sturdy and have a long life span. The clothing items are fashionable, not like old day hemp clothes that look like you got swallowed by tweed.
They can even construct car bodies from hemp. Jay Leno drove one onto his show one night.
And of course we dont want to forget the famous CBD Oils that are sweeping the nation right now. With this product especially I encourage you to research, not beccause it is illeagal or a way to get “high” or intoxicated, because it is not either. It is because of the uses, you should research and speak with your physician before you use this product, this is for your own piece of mind.
Conclusion: You will feel better all the way around using hemp products
With all of these benefits and uses its a wonder we have not utilized this plant sooner! Scinetist are researching and making new discovries every day. Knowing that you are part of helping the planet and helping yourself should make you feel better, when you purchase a hemp-based product, no matter what it is. Personally I think paper should be our target, we waste so many trees every day on making paper. That would impact our environment the most, and it could be immediate.
I think I have given you enough of a start here, after you do your own research and you feel more knowledgable and comfortable on this subject, I believe you will find it easier to make your decision.
Some of the claims have not yet been scientifically founded, which is why I encourage you to do your own research on this subject. The use of hemp oils and other products can impact your life in unsuspecting ways. If we open our minds and stop classifying it as “bad” we will discover a whole new super plant that has been here all along. And you will feel better using it.
