The Benefits of CBD Infused Smoothies
Studies attribute a host of benefits to CBD. In fact, research hints at CBD being a critical supplement for healing in over 50 different conditions. While more research is still needed, what we understand so far is remarkable. Every living being has an endocannabinoid system within them that works to keep the body in an optimized stable equilibrium also known as homeostasis. CBD works to nourish the endocannabinoid system by signaling the body to release naturally occurring cannabinoids. These naturally occurring cannabinoids, known as endocannabinoids, go on to facilitate a variety of functions throughout the body. From controlling neurotransmitters to keeping your immune system running at peak performance, homeostasis is necessary for survival. But why just survive when you can thrive? A well-nourished endocannabinoid system works to keep you healthy and feeling good. While researchers continue to study this exceptional organic compound, testimonials continue to flood the internet heaping praise on CBD.
