\n\t\t\t\t[et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text”]Arthritis is a common condition that can cause pain and inflammation in the joints. In fact, some estimates from the CDC<\/a> suggest that nearly 1\/4th of all adults have or will be diagnosed with some form of arthritis in their lifetimes. Additionally, women appear to be affected at a slightly higher rate, and the condition tends to become more prevalent in older age.<\/p>\n

Some people believe that CBD may be able to help treat arthritis by reducing inflammation and pain. CBD is a type of compound found in cannabis plants. It is similar to the THC compound that gives marijuana its psychoactive properties. However, CBD does not have any psychoactive effects.<\/p>\n

What is Arthritis?<\/h2>\n

Arthritis is a general term for conditions that affect the joints. There are over 100 different types of arthritis, but the two most common are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.<\/p>\n

Osteoarthritis is the most common type of arthritis. It occurs when the cartilage between the joints breaks down. This can cause pain, swelling, and stiffness in the joints.<\/p>\n

Rheumatoid arthritis is a less common type of arthritis. It occurs when the body\u2019s immune system attacks the joints. This can cause pain, inflammation, and damage to the joint tissue.<\/p>\n

Effects of CBD on Arthritis<\/h2>\n

CBD works by interacting with the body\u2019s endocannabinoid system, and studies on animals have shown that CBD can reduce inflammation and pain associated with arthritis (1).<\/p>\n

A 2019 study looked at the effect of CBD on people with osteoarthritis. The participants took either a placebo or 600mg of CBD daily for 8 weeks. Those who took CBD had significantly less pain and stiffness than those who took the placebo (2).<\/p>\n

Another study from 2019 looked at the effect of CBD on people with rheumatoid arthritis. The participants took either a placebo or 400mg of CBD daily for 4 weeks. Those who took CBD had significantly less pain and inflammation than those who took the placebo (3).<\/p>\n

The studies mentioned above are small and more research is needed to determine if CBD is an effective treatment for arthritis. However, these studies suggest that CBD may be able to help reduce pain and inflammation associated with this condition.<\/p>\n

Tincture or Topical CBD for Arthritis<\/h2>\n

When it comes to consuming CBD, some of the most popular methods are ingestibles (oils \/ capsules \/ edibles) or topical treatments. Promise Drops<\/a> offers both varieties for differing purposes. Our Water Soluble CBD<\/a> is designed to be taken orally and comes in a high-potency blend complete with VESIsorb technology to help absorption. Alternately, we also offer our 6000mg Trauma Oil<\/a> topical with rollerball technology, designed to be applied directly on the skin or joints where the pain is detectable. Both methods are perfect for those looking for natural products to help with their arthritis symptoms.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re interested in trying CBD for arthritis, it\u2019s important to remember CBD has not been FDA approved as a treatment for any condition, and you should talk to your primary care provider before starting any new supplement regimen. They can help you determine if it\u2019s safe for you and advise you on the best dosage to take.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column]
