more cbd after this

  Hey {NAME}, I have noticed a lot of things since adding CBD into my protocols. One of which was a huge improvement in my gut health and just overall digestion. But I didn’t realize there was so much newer evidence coming out directly on CBD and the gut. Before I get into the new science, I am very particular about the CBD that I use. I use a brand called [CURED NUTRITION]( as they have some of the best blends of CBD and CBN that really do help me sleep and feel much calmer.

Reducing Gut Inflammation There was a study just published in PLOS1 that looked at how CBD was reducing gut inflammation. Many gastrointestinal disorders—such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Crohn’s disease, and ulcerative colitis—are driven by chronic inflammation. CBD is showing promise in reducing this inflammation by interacting with the endocannabinoid system (ECS). - Mechanism: CBD binds to CB1 and CB2 receptors in the ECS, both of which are expressed in the gut. CB2 receptors, in particular, are found in immune cells and are involved in mediating anti-inflammatory effects. By stimulating CB2 receptors, CBD may downregulate the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, proteins that trigger inflammation in the intestines. - Impact: This anti-inflammatory action could reduce the symptoms of gut disorders like abdominal pain, bloating, and cramping—common complaints in people with IBS and inflammatory bowel disease 2. Regulating the Gut-Brain Axis I think the biggest place I have seen CBD help me though, is with my anxiousness. I don’t drink alcohol, so sometimes I do like to use something to wind me down. This is where Cured Nutrition’s "Night Cap" and "Zen" products are exceptionally unique. I feel like I can calm down and be myself without the layer of stress that sometimes makes me a shell of who I am. Again - here is that 20% off discount link, just use code THOMAS - [Try it Here]( Then there was a study published in Frontiers in Neuroscience that made some sense of why I feel so calm when I take CBD. The "gut-brain axis" is the communication network between your central nervous system (CNS) and your enteric nervous system (ENS), often referred to as your "second brain." Stress, anxiety, and mood can really whack out this axis, which can lead to digestive issues and even more stress as the cycle continues. - Mechanism: CBD interacts with both the ECS and serotonin pathways, which are integral to gut-brain communication. Specifically, CBD can enhance the activity of 5-HT1A receptors, known for their anxiolytic (anxiety-reducing) effects. By reducing stress and anxiety, CBD can calm an overactive gut-brain axis, mitigating the gut disturbances triggered by emotional and psychological stressors. - Impact: This can be especially helpful for people with IBS or stress-induced gastrointestinal symptoms, as CBD helps reduce anxiety-driven digestive dysfunction. 3. Modulating the Gut Microbiota Emerging research is looking at how CBD may affect the composition and function of the gut microbiome, the community of trillions of microorganisms living in the intestines. - Mechanism: While the exact relationship between CBD and gut bacteria is still under investigation, early studies suggest that CBD may have antimicrobial properties that help maintain a healthy balance of gut bacteria. It may also indirectly promote a healthier microbiome by reducing gut inflammation, which is known to disrupt microbial balance. - Impact: A healthy microbiome is critical for everything from digestion and nutrient absorption to immune system function. While more research is needed, the potential for CBD to positively influence the microbiome is an exciting frontier in gut health science. The nice thing about more acceptance of CBD overall is that we are able to see research unfolding and helping us understand what is truly happening. I remember when CBD was really looked down upon, like it was taboo. But now we’re seeing…. Wait a minute… this stuff is way better than alcohol without the downsides of alcohol and it might just have true properties that help us recover, sleep better, feel calmer, you name it.
