Cannabis Can't Get High...

Cannabis can't get high!!

Man is, in a word, the miracle of the universe.

The human body contains 100 trillion cells, 50 million of which are renewed every second. Each cell contains 15 billion atoms.

The human heart is so powerful that it can shoot blood up to a height of 30 meters and circulates all the blood in the body in one minute. Blood travels 96,540 kilometers a day. In a lifetime, the heart beats more than 2.5 billion times and pumps about 200 million liters of blood. The body contains a total of 25 trillion red blood cells (erythrocytes) and between 25 and 100 billion white blood cells (leukocytes).

During chewing, the jaw exerts up to 100 kilograms of pressure. Of the 650 muscles, our tongue is the strongest. The 100 billion nerve cells in our brain send messages at a speed of 274 kilometers per hour. The total length of our intestines reaches 200 meters. A human sheds about 20 kilograms of skin in a lifetime and the total length of the nerves in the skin is 72 kilometers. The average person breathes 23,40 times a day.

If the veins in the human body were brought end to end, the length would circumnavigate the globe twice. This marvelous, flawless, complex, integrated and extraordinarily detailed design of the human body requires a great will, knowledge, power and art.

The main system that regulates all of the cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, nervous, digestive, circulatory, excretory, reproductive and neurological systems in our body is the Endocannabinoid system. "Endo" means internal, while "cannabinoid" refers to the components found in the cannabis plant. By balancing and regulating our endocannabinoid system with the cannabinoids we take (CBD, CBG, CBDA, CBN, CBF, CBZ, CBGá, etc.), we can optimize the functioning of all other systems.

So Does Hemp Make Cannabis Head As Some Claim?

CBD (cannabidiol) is a chemical compound extracted from the cannabis plant and is not a psychoactive substance, meaning it does not cause any mental disorders. The endocannabinoid system is a fundamental system that regulates all systems in the body and is considered the most important center. It is one of the most effective cannabinoids and is used in the treatment of many diseases, including cancer.

Cannabinoids (CBD) are like unpaid volunteer workers who are constantly working to keep the body healthy for a long time. These cannabinoids are at your disposal twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week (24/7). When the body cannot produce its own cannabinoids, you get these components with the extraction oil from hemp seeds.

In this case, can we say that hemp gets high, as it is popularly said or even invented?

Let's continue with explanations to find the right answer;

HowCannabinoids (CBD)Help Cardiovascular Health

Research reveals that CBD provides positive effects by insulating the arteries and reducing tension and inflammation in areas of the body particularly relevant to cardiovascular health. A 2013 study examined the effects of CBD on the blood cells that regulate the cardiovascular system; the blood cells in the bloodin the heart and brain have shown how CBD affects the motility of white blood cells and the lifespan and death of platelets. These preclinical data support the potential benefits of CBD treatment in heart and brain vessels, but more research is needed to determine whether these findings will also be observed in humans.

One of the things that makes CBD attractive to people seeking relief from various pains, inflammations and anxieties is that it is not intoxicating. Instead, CBD interacts with your body's endocannabinoid system and helps maintain balance in your body.

Looking more specifically at the cardiovascular benefits;

CBD can help reduce arrhythmias. When your doctor detects an arrhythmia, this usually indicates an irregular heartbeat. When the heartbeat is too fast or too slow, this can be an indication that your heart is not working properly and is among the common arrhythmia symptoms.

Sometimes these arrhythmias can be a symptom of a weak heart and can lead to fatal consequences if left untreated. CBD can support your heart to beat regularly, which can contribute to a reduction in arrhythmias while improving your overall cardiovascular health and the optimal function of your heart.

CBD reduces cardiac inflammation

An inflamed heart carries serious risks. Untreated inflammation caused by a weak immune system, medications, diseases, dietary habits or other factors can be fatal. CBD acts as a natural anti-inflammatory. By binding to endocannabinoid receptors, it reduces inflammation and inhibits the production of toxins that can cause inflammation, thickening and hardening of the heart walls and valves.

A 2010 study published in the British Journal of Pharmacology demonstrated the potential of CBD in protecting cardiovascular health. Researchers found that CBD reduced the number of arrhythmias and infarct sizes, an indicator of damage after a heart attack. These findings indicate that CBD may support heart health. Not limited to cardiovascular health, CBD has also been reported to be effective in combating and treating conditions that can lead to cardiovascular problems, such as diabetes, stress, anxiety and smoking.

With a rich history dating back 8000 years, the cannabis plant has served humanity without any "high" effects. It will continue to contribute to humanity until the Day of Judgment with many miraculous benefits yet to be discovered.

Let's ask again; In the light of this information, can we say that hemp cannot get high?
