Cannabis Oil and its Properties

Table of Contents

Here at Enecta, our news posts often focus on the benefits of CBD oil and other forms of CBD supplementation.

Today, our focus is cannabis oil, which, contrary to popular belief, is not the same as CBD oil.

It offers different properties, advantages, and disadvantages in comparison to cannabidiol, which we will outline throughout this piece.

 

The Difference Between Cannabis Oil and CBD Oil

Although both oils are extracted from the Cannabis Sativa plant, CBD oil and cannabis oil are very different substances. Additionally, they fall under different laws in different states and countries, while both being consumed for various purposes.

 

CBD OIL

CBD oil is predominantly derived from industrial hemp plants. What’s important to note is that hemp is the same species used to create recreational cannabis, but it has much less THC than some of the sister plants in the cannabis family. With THC being psychoactive, the majority of CBD oils extracted from help have little or no THC present at all.

Hemp contains a wealth of cannabinoids that can be supplemented for their health benefits. This includes CBD, CBDA, CBC, CBN, CBCA, and many more.

CBD oil products often include all of these cannabinoids, except for THC. Some CBD oil manufacturers use hemp seed oil as a ‘carrier,’ helping to increase the efficacy, bioavailability, and flavor of their products.

In Europe, hemp can legally contain no more than 0.2% THC. However, over in the USA, this level is set at 0.3%.

These traces are further produced as the hemp is converted into CBD oils, leaving little to no trace of THC in the final products. Therefore, CBD oils will not produce a ‘high’ in users, and they are legally available throughout the EU.

 

Cannabis Oil

Known as “cannabis oil,” “marijuana oil,” or “THC oil,” the main difference between cannabis oils and CBD oils is that the former includes THC as an active ingredient. This is a significant amount more than the tiny traces of THC that can be found in some CBD products.

Cannabis oils are derived from medicinal or recreational cannabis plants rather than industrial hemp.

Unless you live in a country such as Canada that has legalized cannabis, cannabis oil can be illegal to possess, distribute, or use. Cannabis oil often contains high concentrations of THC.

However, it’s easy to dose, with stronger, longer-lasting effects compared to smoking recreational or medicinal cannabis.

There are several health benefits that cannabis oil provides:

Cannabis Oil Can Help to Relieve Pain

Cannabis oil is often used by people who suffer from inflammation, chronic pain, and sometimes in emergency pain relief. For this reason, cancer patients often use cannabis-related products, including cannabis oil for pain relief following chemotherapy or other treatments.

Controlling Epileptic Seizures

The THC present in cannabis oil helps to relieve seizures by attaching to the brain cells that promote relaxation and control excitability.

Slows Alzheimer’s Disease Progression

Cannabis oilmay help to slow the progression of Alzheimer. THC, the active chemical in cannabis oil, slows the establishment of amyloid plaques by blocking critical enzymes in the brain. Amyloid plaques are what kill brain cells, ultimately contributing to Alzheimer’s disease.

Improves Heart Health

Cannabis oil can help to improve heart health by balancing out the harmful oils present in a person’s system. Also, the oil can stimulate antioxidant generation by enhancing the health of the cardiovascular system and breaking down any excess cholesterol.

Eases Multiple Sclerosis Pain

Cannabis oils can reduce the painful symptoms associated with multiple sclerosis. The THC in the cannabis oil attaches to receptors in the nerves and muscles, promoting pain relief. Some studies suggest THC helps to control muscle spasms.

Enhances Appetite

People who consume cannabis in any form benefit from an increased appetite. Cannabis oil can help you regulate your appetite and encourage hunger. This is particularly beneficial to cancer patients who may struggle to eat as a result of chemotherapy treatments.

Treats Inflammatory Bowel Diseases

Studies suggest that the effects of cannabis oil could help patients with inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. The THC-like compounds that the body produces increase the permeability of the intestines, which allows bacteria inside. Cannabinoids present in cannabis oil block these body-made cannabinoids, preventing their permeability and ensuring the intestinal cells are stable.

Increases Sleep Longevity

If you suffer from bedtime anxiety, insomnia, or struggle from getting restful, undisturbed sleep, cannabis oil could be the solution for you. Cannabis oil helps to relax the mind and body, generating a lower energy level. This makes it easier for you to get your heart rate down and relax, encouraging a long, restful sleep.

Cannabis oil has also been said to relieve arthritis discomfort and help to promote the general wellbeing of individuals.
