CBD, or cannabidiol, is a chemical compound found in the cannabis plant that has been researched to have therapeutic benefits for a range of health conditions, including mental health. CBD may have the potential to help with various mental health conditions, as per research conducted at the National Institute of Health and Harvard Medical School.
Some studies have shown that CBD may have positive effects on symptoms of anxiety and depression. CBD interacts with receptors in the brain that regulate mood and other functions, and help to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms.
Additionally, CBD may also have an impact on other factors that contribute to mental health issues, such as chronic pain and insomnia. By reducing pain and improving sleep, CBD may indirectly improve mental health and well-being.
