The Benefits of CBD Oil

Have you ever wondered about the main CBD oil benefits? CBD oil can offer many benefits in many ways – however, it’s not always clear what these are due to CBD industry advertising restrictions. CBD is still a relatively new industry and while a lot of research has been done, it is not enough to make specific medical claims. CBD companies like us need to ensure we are not stepping over MHRA definitions, it’s one of the reasons we always refer customers to search for themselves on google if we are not providing them with enough explanation. 

With this thought in mind, today, we’re looking at some of the different benefits that you might experience with CBD oil. However, it’s important to keep in mind that the specific CBD oil benefits you might see will vary from person to person. 

Disclaimer: CBD supplements should NOT be used by people pregnant, breastfeeding or under the age of 18. Provacan CBD products are not a substitute for a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle and are not intended to have any medical claims or cures. Moreover, if you are taking prescription medication, we advise you to get in touch with your GP to ensure that taking CBD oil won’t interfere with any of your existing prescription medications.

What are the Potential CBD Oil Benefits I Should Know? 

If you’ve been thinking about investing in CBD oil, you should know several crucial benefits. However, these aren’t always clear, and there’s often a lot of conflicting information out there about CBD oil benefits. As such, we have outlined a few of the most notable benefits of CBD oil below. Please remember that everyone is unique and at the beginning it’s important to find the right dose for you to truly feel the full effect of CBD benefits. Some people react instantly, and others take 3-4 weeks before feeling the CBD benefits. CBD works naturally with the body’s endocannabinoid system to supplement your internal balance. 

#1 Easy to Take 

Did you know that one of the most crucial benefits of CBD oil is also the most obvious? It’s so easy to take! Many different food supplements on the market require you to take a large amount at a time, which can make them both incredibly expensive and impractical to include in your daily routine. However, this isn’t the case with CBD oil. 

CBD oil is usually made from a purified combination of cannabidiol compounds – minus the THC – which helps ensure it’s potent and strong. Provacan CBD oils are particularly rich in extract and have a distinct taste. Rather than having to down teaspoons full every day (not the most pleasant experience), you’ll only need to take a few droplets of CBD oil usually as per the instructions on the bottle.  Some people feel that buying a bigger bottle gives them more CBD, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Often the bigger the bottle, the more diluted the CBD extract. 

If you want to use CBD oil but don’t like the flavour, you can add it to your morning drink, use in salad dressings or sauces or even bake with it. Any one of these options will “mask” the hemp flavour but will still get the benefits. 

#2 May Help Sleep Quality 

Did you know that CBD oil may help maintain or even improve your current quality of sleep? Getting a good night’s sleep is vital to maintaining good health and it often impacts your quality of life, everyday productivity, and happiness. If you toss and turn in bed at night or feel a little groggy when you wake up, trying CBD oil may potentially help. It may also help you fall asleep faster.

Of course, we should point out here that CBD oils won’t cure insomnia or stop you from having bad dreams at night. Some food supplements are considered sleep aids as they make you drowsy, so you fall asleep faster and for longer. The benefit of using CBD oil for sleep is that it does not make you drowsy. It relaxes your state of mind, so you drift off to sleep feeling calm and balance. Many people struggle to fall asleep fast as their mind is still racing from the day. CBD helps to put your mind at rest and optimise sleep patterns.

For the best results, take CBD oil at the same time each day as you would do any other supplement or medication. It’s a well-known fact that having a regular nightly routine is a good way to better your quality of sleep. Adding CBD into your nightly routine is a good place to start.

#3 Supports Your Wellbeing 

Did you know that CBD supplements may help support your overall feeling of health, immunity, and wellbeing? As a food supplement, CBD products are not meant to treat, prevent, or cure any disease or illness, however, they do offer a high level of support so you can go about your day feeling your best. 

Our advice is to use CBD oil as any other vitamin or supplement while leading a healthy lifestyle with a balanced, nutritious diet and plenty of regular exercise. This will help you feel the long-term CBD benefits. Alternatively, you can use CBD oil sporadically for specific short-term issues and take advantage of more immediate CBD oil benefits.

#4 May Help Keep You Focused

Did you know that your ability to focus and concentrate is often based on what else is going on in your mind? CBD oil can benefit your mind in more ways than one. We have already spoken about sleep quality, balance, and calm. Another CBD oil benefit that customers talk about a lot is that along with calm and balance, CBD also sometimes helps concentration and focus, whether at home or at work. When we lead a more focused, alert, and attuned work life, we often see benefits in our personal live, and vice versa. 

Focusing on a task can sometimes feel like a major challenge, and for many of us, it can seem far more tempting to give up or divert to something else. In today’s fast paced life, there is no shortage of things to do and when we have a quiet second often the mind finds it hard to relax. 

#5 CBD Won’t Get You High

Did you know that using CBD oil won’t get you high? Even after years selling products, we still get asked questions about CBD oil, marijuana and getting high. That’s OK, that’s what we’re here for! CBD oil in the UK is made from industrial help, that is naturally low in controlled cannabinoids like THC. These controlled cannabinoids are what makes you high. In the UK, only products with micro-THC levels are legal for sale, and these are listed on the FSA Novel Food list. 

So, the answer to this question is pure CBD oil won’t get you high! Just make sure that you are taking high-quality, lab-tested CBD oil and you can get on with your day comfortably, knowing that you won’t get high as a result.

#5 Use Topically On Skin

Did you know that some people rub CBD oil onto their skin? As a topical ingredient CBD is antioxidant, anti-sebum, skin condition and skin protecting, but many people also you it on their muscles and joints. Applying CBD to a targeted area means you get the benefit of direct application and local blood flow stimulation. As a result, CBD topicals are rapidly becoming more popular. 

If you don’t have a CBD balm or lotion it is perfectly acceptable, and possibly advisable in certain circumstances, to massage a CBD oil onto the affected area instead. It will often be more potent and more effective than low strength CBD balms and lotions that are more targeted for skin-deep benefits. 

Final Thoughts 

If you dig deep enough, there are far too many possible CBD oil benefits to mention, and more research needs to be done until these can be used to promote products. It’s important to reiterate that CBD is not a miracle cure that can solve any issue. 

Until you try it you won’t necessarily understand it true benefits for you on a personal level. You may also need to try different types of products and different strengths before you find your find your optimal dose. Despite all efforts, sometimes you may just find that it is not for you, and that’s OK. There is a supplement out there for everyone, for you it just might not be CBD.
