Send arthritis packing! (Here’s how)
What your doctor won’t tell you…
Your joints are something you don’t think much about… until they’re in constant pain.
For the millions of people suffering from arthritis, their painful, often swollen joints are something they can’t stop thinking about.
But there’s a natural treatment that’s been found to be effective for both rheumatoid and osteoarthritis.
And it’s guaranteed to help you all but forget about your joints.
It’s an underground pain solution that’s finally making its way to the surface. And it’s about time.
I’m talking about CBD… aka, medical marijuana.
Studies keep pouring in showing its benefits for everything from anxiety to heart health.
But it’s effects on pain rank up there at the top – especially when it comes to arthritis pain.
There are two different types of arthritis.
Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune condition that occurs when your body attacks its own joints, which leads to inflammation and pain.
Osteoarthritis is a wear-and-tear condition in which the cartilage between your bones breaks down, causing your bones to rub together.
Even though the underlying causes are completely different, CBD is effective against both types of arthritis.
In one study, people with rheumatoid arthritis who took a CBD-infused medicine reported less pain and reduced inflammation.
Another study (this time on rats) shows that a CBD topical gel helped reduce knee joint swelling and thickening of the membranes associated with rheumatoid arthritis, while also helping relieve pain.
And yet another study finds that CBD helps prevent the development of pain and nerve damage in rats with osteoarthritis.
The reason why CBD could have such promising effects against two such different conditions is that CBD interacts with two pain receptors in the body that are responsible for pain and the effects of inflammation: CB1 and CB2.
In addition, CBD has direct anti-inflammatory effects while also playing a role in your immune system – two mechanisms that are particularly effective against rheumatoid arthritis.
There are many different types of CBD products out there.
The one that will work best for you will be based on what kind of pain you have and how severe it is.
For example, if you suffer from high levels of pain, smoking CBD flowers might be most effective since it will enter your bloodstream faster, providing faster relief.
For milder pain, a topical CBD cream could be your best option. Or, for a longer-lasting effect, consider CBD oil capsules.
