Ιf you’ve һeard of CBD oil tһen you’ve most definitely hearɗ abοut its potential health benefits. Hoԝever, many arе still unsure aЬоut CBD ɑnd whether іt’s something they shoսld try.
Skeptics օf CBD wilⅼ often suggest that ɑny effect fгom CBD is јust a placebo effect and that іt doeѕn’t ᴡork. Whilе the placebo effеct is ɑ real phenomenon, CBD іs mucһ more.
This myth woulⅾ ƅe akin to sɑying that thе "high" you get fгom cannabis is just a placebo effect. Іt’s not.
"This sensational claim was based on a dubious study of CBD and liver toxicity conducted by researchers at the University of Arkansas in Little Rock.
Thestudy claimed that CBD might be just as harmful to human livers as conventional pain relievers (NSAIDs). The study's claims went viral due to a Forbes article that Project CBD calls – breathless reporting focused on a single, flawed, pre-clinical study and exaggerates it to the point of falsehood.
According to the study, four and a half mice died from chronic administration of CBD, and one and a half mice survived. Does that mean that half of a mouse survived?
First off, the study gave mice CBD made from hexane extraction, a known neurotoxin. Second, they were force-feeding mice 246 mg/kg up to 2,460 mg/kg of CBD.
They also tried "ѕmaller" doses of 61.5 to 615 mg/kg for 10 consecutive days. These dosages are at least 100x more than what is generally recommended for the FDA-approved CBD-isolate Epidiolex, which is only 20 mg/kg.
It is true that CBD, in higher doses (20-50mg/kg) can alter the way that certain types of pharmaceuticals (those that come with a grapefruit warning) are metabolized, which could lead to toxicity.
The toxicity isn’t from CBD though; it is from the pharmaceuticals not being processed properly and it is typically observed in people consuming hundreds or thousands of milligrams of CBD per day.
This is most important for children with epilepsy being administered CBD along with other epileptic drugs but also applies to anyone taking pharmaceutical medications. For the record, there is no evidence of lasting harm or stress upon the liver upon cessation of CBD treatment.

CBD Isolate vs. Full-Spectrum CBD
Too many people still don’t understand the difference between CBD isolate and Full- or Broad- Spectrum CBD.
In short, CBD isolate is pure CBD or cannabidiol, and CBD with spectrum includes most of the other naturally occurring plant compounds.
There are hundreds of other compounds, such as terpenes, flavonoids, and secondary cannabinoids like THC, CBG, CBN, and others, in CBD-rich hemp that play an important role in the beneficial properties of CBD oil.
While CBD isolate has its benefits and uses, it is limited in its effects by what’s known as a bell-shaped dose-response curve. That means that taking more isolate won’t increase the effect.
However, research indicates when CBD is administered in the presence of other naturally occurring plant compounds, a synergistic mechanism, known as the entourage effect, occurs that allows the beneficial effects of CBD to surpass the dose-response curve.
Many people taking CBD isolate report a powerful effect, but then again, others say that it didn’t do much of anything. Scientific research suggests that this has to do with genetics and the purpose of taking CBD in the first place (pain, stress, sleep).
For some circumstances and situations, isolate may be sufficient, but for others, it might not. Unfortunately, pharmacology of CBD is much more nuanced than we fully understand yet, especially when it comes to managing symptoms related to medical conditions.
Always consult a medical professional to manage serious health problems.
