CBD to help aches and pain has a lot more research to undergo. To use CBD for pain is a very broad spectrum to cover. Relating to the veterinary study of CBD use in Dogs with Osteoarthritis the results showed taking regular doses of CBD increased comfort and activity in dogs. CBD for Dogs is still legally a decision for Vets only but it’s a hopefully study for the future of pain management.
According to the NHS website cannabis can help certain types of pain. “There is some evidence medical cannabis can help certain types of pain, though this evidence is not yet strong enough to recommend it for pain relief.” –https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/medical-cannabis/
Cannabis and CBD are not the same thing. Cannabis is the entire plant intact with all the components including THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) which is the ingredient in cannabis that gives the user the “high” feeling. Cannabidiol especially Flow CBD uses an extract which means only the CBD is taken from the plant and everything else is left behind.
