CBD, salvation in the pandemic period.
The Covid-19 pandemic has turned the lives of people around the world upside down. Due to the forced isolation, queues to psychiatrists and psychologists were lengthened indefinitely. Uncertainty and the new situation forced society to look for alternative solutions to return to the previous balance. More and more people have started looking for home remedies to deal with stress, from meditation to CBD oils.
Impact of stress on our health.
The primary task of our body is to keep us alive. Therefore, during stressful situations, it secretes cortisol - a hormone that reduces the concentration of dopamine and serotonin - neurotransmitters otherwise known as happiness hormones, responsible, among others, for well-being or willingness to act. Deficiency of these stimuli can have huge health consequences: it leads to anxiety and depression.
Excessive stress also affects our blood pressure, we can feel its physical ailments, i.e. excessive sweating, dry mouth, or body tremors. Over time, we can allow diabetes, hypertension, irritable bowel syndrome to occur. Prolonged stress weakens the body, making colds and even herpes more common.
Cannabidiol, why does it help us?

CBD dosage
Depending on our needs, the dose and concentration of CBD is different. We start with a small dose and gradually increase the amount throughout the day. We can start with 1-2 drops every 6 hours or twice a day (morning and evening) and after a week move to a higher concentration of the product. Let's remember that CBD begins to work after long-term use, so it's worth being meticulous in its use. There are currently many companies offering CBD oils on the market. Before buying, it is worth checking whether the product is certified and whether it comes from good crops.
