According to the World Health Organization (WHO), depression is the main cause of disability worldwide, and it is also one of the three major problems at the workplace (the other two are stress and family crisis). It is difficult to overestimate the losses it causes to our families, communities and society as a whole. For many years people have been looking for a safe and effective way to help them cope with the disease, and today some report positive results with CBD.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In recent decades, the main methods of treatment for depression have been pharmaceuticals such as S<\/strong>SRI<\/strong> (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors), which change the hormonal balance of the brain in an attempt to alleviate symptoms. Although they may be effective for some people, they have also <\/strong>been shown to have serious side effects<\/strong>, and many of the patients are at high risk of dependency or abuse. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

CBD oil has a more favourable safety profile.<\/strong> When WHO recommended the abolition of all international controls on the substance, their report specifically mentioned that CBD was not known to cause any significant adverse effects and that it showed \u201cno possibility of abuse and no possibility of addiction\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is because <\/strong>this <\/strong>cannabidiol is not psychoactive<\/strong>. CBD affects the endocannabinoid system, a network of receptors throughout the body that control a wide range of functions, including mood. While research is still in its infancy, early results suggest that CBD may have antidepressant effects by activating r<\/strong>eceptors such as 5-HT1A, better known as serotonin receptor<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While this is an encouraging sign that CBD oil may be effective in the treatment of depressed people, it is important to note that research is not only speculative but that not all CBD products are made in the right way \u2013 some will be more effective than others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
