Contents: Sleep quality Entry or flow problems Medicines and side effects CBD as a natural sleep regulator Harmonizing cannabidiol Latest research findings Other natural remedies Sources and study reports The quality of sleep Getting enough restful sleep is extremely important for coping with everyday life. People with poor sleep quality are also more susceptible to stress and their mental health also suffers. CBD as a sleep aid When we sleep, hormones are released that increase body temperature and promote deep sleep, as well as transmit important messenger substances to the immune system. However, if you frequently miss out on your nightly sleep, you increase your risk of illness. However, it is not just the length of sleep that is important for an optimally functioning organism, but also the quality of sleep. Difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep lead to increased daytime tiredness, reduced energy, a higher susceptibility to infections and slower regeneration. Around 33% of the population are familiar with these complaints: sleep disorders are a widespread ailment; the recommended 7 to 8 hours of sleep remain an unattainable goal for many. However, those who sleep less than 6 hours per night on average not only have an increased risk of catching a cold: too little sleep can also lead to obesity, poor blood sugar levels and reduced resistance to stress. Medicines and side effects According to a recent study by the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, poor sleep quality is even linked to an increased risk of Alzheimer's and dementia. Study In pharmacies or on the Internet, sufferers are confronted with a multitude of medications and preparations, including in TV advertisements. But be careful, some of the drugs can lead to physical dependence in addition to other side effects. Although you can sleep wonderfully after taking them, after a while you become dependent on them and can't sleep a wink without the pills. Sleep better with CBD CBD is a natural sleep regulator - not addictive. On the contrary, it is a natural remedy that is used millions of times around the world. Research around the world has shown that cannabidiol (CBD) acts as a mild stimulant in small doses. It appears to interact with adenosine receptors - the same ones that respond to caffeine and other stimulants. Cannabidiol can also facilitate the process of waking up and positively influence morning energy, as well as reduce symptoms of fatigue during the day - a not entirely unknown problem for many people. On the other hand, however, CBD oil is known for its sedative and sleep-inducing and antispasmodic effects, all of which significantly affect human sleep. Harmonizing cannabidiol Cannabidiol (CBD) is a plant-based substance extracted from hemp. The so-called phytocannabinoid is non-intoxicating and therefore completely legal. It is used primarily for its balancing, relaxing and harmonizing effects. In CBD used to treat sleep disorders, the substance tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which is known as a drug and makes you "high", is only present in a vanishingly small potency. CBD preparations used to treat sleep disorders contain a maximum of 0.2 percent THC and are not subject to the Narcotics Act. CBD and CBN as sleep aid The latest research findings show that CBD and CBN in combination are sleep regulators! Sleep better with CBD. Night Oil - CBN/CBD According to studies published to date in the Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, the combination of CBD and CBN can promote restful sleep and improve sleep quality due to its anxiety and stress-relieving potential. Without any habituation effect or a certain dependency. It can lead to deeper deep sleep phases and noticeably better recovery effects. CBN (cannabinol) is rarer and less well-known, but extremely effective. As a phytocannabinoid, it is extracted from the hemp plant in the same way as CBD and can act via the receptors in our body's endocannabinoid system. CBD binds to various receptors in the body, including the cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1) and type 2 (CB2), while CBN mainly binds to the CB2 receptor. Cannabinol (CBN) is only found in small quantities in the young, green hemp plant. CBN is an oxidation product of the cannabinoids and can only be extracted in larger quantities from mature or dried hemp that has been exposed to oxygen and light for a longer period of time. CBN improves the effects of other cannabinoids. CBD and CBN as a sleep aid. Other natural remedies Hemp drops with melatonin Some of our sleep aids with hemp have also been supplemented as quick sleep drops with melatonin and other sleep-promoting natural plant extracts such as hemp leaves, lemon balm and orange blossom extract. Or in capsule form with CBD and melatonin. Due to different compositions, there is a natural solution for everyone seeking help. Calming hemp tea Many CBD oil users also have hemp tea at home to relax in the late afternoon or evening, switch off from everyday life and also to start the bedtime ritual in a more relaxed manner. Or just to relax and unwind. But there is more to it. Cannabidiol - CBD - in hemp tea promotes mental calmness, activates cell protection and has a balancing and harmonizing effect. Restlessness and stress are reduced and give way to inner balance. The CBDA content in the tea allows the body to relax better, the mind to calm down, thoughts to stop circling and you can sleep better. Hemp tea is not just one of many, but one of the most beneficial traditional drinks, because it is full of plant-based vitamins, natural nutrients and antioxidants. The tea has been used for a very long time in both traditional Chinese medicine and the Indian tradition of Ayurveda. Please also read our blog posts with publications and study reports about hemp tea and its positive effects on our organism People who sleep enough and deeply and soundly get sick less often. WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY: I've been using the CBD 10% drops for a few days now and I'm sleeping much better and more relaxed - it really helped me solve my sleeping problems and I'm no longer afraid to go to bed!

Many common treatments for hair loss (alopecia) show only limited success—hair loss often returns after some time. Research is therefore increasingly focusing on cannabidiol (CBD) as a potential new approach. New studies suggest that CBD could be a promising alternative for hair loss . What is androgenetic alopecia? When more than 100 hairs fall out daily over an extended period of time and do not grow back, this is referred to as hair loss – medically known as alopecia . The most common form is androgenetic alopecia , in which the hair follicles are genetically hypersensitive to androgens. This is precisely where cannabidiol (CBD) comes into play. How can CBD affect hair growth? CBD interacts with the endocannabinoid system (ECS) , which is also active in hair follicles. Studies show that the CB1, TRPV1, and TRPV4 receptors, which are associated with hair growth, respond to CBD. Thus, CBD may support natural hair growth. Studies on the effects of CBD on hair loss In a six-month study, 35 people applied a CBD-containing hemp oil to their scalp daily (approximately 3–4 mg of CBD per day). The results: On average, hair growth increased by over 90% Men benefited more than women Successes were particularly visible on the top of the head No side effects were observed Effects of CBD: Dosage and Signaling Pathways Interestingly, the effect of CBD on hair growth appears to be dose-dependent. While low doses can prolong the growth phase, higher doses may have the opposite effect through the TRPV4 receptor. Furthermore, CBD can activate the so-called Wnt signaling cascade , which can promote new hair follicles. CBD for a healthy scalp In addition to promoting hair growth , CBD in hair care products has other benefits. It can soothe and cleanse the scalp without damaging its natural protective layer—unlike many conventional shampoos. The quality of the product is crucial: Only high-quality CBD hair care products with a defined cannabidiol content and without synthetic additives can contribute to a healthy scalp and strong hair in the long term. Natural formulations without silicones, parabens, or artificial fragrances are particularly recommended. At Unser Kraut, you'll find high-quality care products such as CBD shampoos , hair oil with CBD , and an intensively nourishing CBD hair serum —all naturally derived and free from harmful additives. They're also ideal for daily care for sensitive or irritated scalps. Conclusion: CBD for hair loss – a promising approach Current studies show that CBD could be a natural treatment for hair loss , particularly in cases of androgenetic alopecia. The relaxing effect of cannabidiol may also play a role, as stress can also trigger hair loss. However, further clinical studies are needed to confirm its long-term effectiveness.

WHAT IS CBN (Cannabinol)? CBN – is still relatively unknown to many and is seen by experts as the successor to HHC. There is a lot of talk about CBD and studies have been looking into the cannabinoid for a long time. The hemp plant is once again receiving a lot of attention worldwide due to the positive experiences of countless users. CBN has some similarities with CBD, but there are also several differences. Cannabinol is one of the more than 100 cannabinoids found in the hemp plant. According to research, it is said to contribute primarily to mental relaxation, but the decoding of its other effectiveness has not yet been fully completed. Technically, CBN is produced by oxidation caused by heat and light in mature hemp plants. The biochemical precursor of CBN is THC, the substance that is not allowed to be available on the market in high doses. Mature hemp flowers exposed to the sun and high temperatures produce large amounts of CBN. The more mature the plant, the higher the amount of CBN present. Even though CBN has a slightly psychoactive effect, it is not listed as a “New Psychotropic Substance” in Austria and Germany. This fact and the fact that HHC products were banned in many European countries in spring 2023 led to an increased demand for CBN products. WHAT ARE THE CHARACTERISTICS OF CBN? CBD is the best known and most frequently used cannabinoid, about whose effects a lot is already known and new study reports are constantly being published. CBN is the lesser-known part, but its properties are also convincing at first glance. Similar to cannabidiol, CBN works primarily via the receptors of the endocannabinoid system and particularly specifically on the CB2 receptor. The effect is described by users as slightly dampening, relaxing, calming and sleep-inducing. Due to its properties, CBN is also said to have a balancing effect and antibiotic effects. WHERE IS CBN USED? Up to now, CBN has been used primarily for mental calming. Its effect on the endocannabinoid system can influence the central nervous system. The difference between CBD and CBN is that CBN primarily interacts with the receptors, while CBD directly addresses the endocannabinoid system. CBN is a variant of the cannabis plant that works similarly, but not identically, to CBD. CBN can have similar effects to THC, just to a lesser extent. The latest findings show that this cannabinoid helps to relax almost 5 times more effectively than CBD, it suppresses appetite and can help with sore joints. It is also said to have anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antifungal properties. CBN causes fewer negative feelings or side effects. A promising future milestone in biomedicine. DO CBN AND CBD COMPATIBLE? There is nothing wrong with that. Quite the opposite. Many modern CBD oils also contain cannabinol. The synergy of several cannabinoids with the terpenes of the hemp flowers is known as the entourage effect. Therefore, there are different variations of high-quality CBD oils, the best of which are full-spectrum oils with the CBN content already present. This means that all of the plant's ingredients are used and together produce positive effects on the organism. According to studies published to date in the Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, the combination of CBD and CBN can promote restful sleep and improve sleep quality in the long term due to its anxiety and stress-relieving potential. Without any habituation effect or a certain dependency. It can lead to deeper deep sleep phases and noticeably better recovery effects. IS CBN LEGAL? The same regulations apply as for CBD. CBN products may have a maximum THC content of 0.3% in Austria and Germany and, like CBD products, must be made from seeds from the EU variety catalogue. Please research which regulations apply to other countries. WHAT SHOULD I PAY ATTENTION TO? When using it, you should remember that CBN (cannabinol) can make you tired. Even if you have been using CBD for a long time, the effect of CBN is completely new to you. First, find out what effects CBN has on you and your body. We recommend that you only trust a specialist shop when buying CBD and cannabinol, as safety is paramount here. Since CBN has a slightly psychoactive effect, you should refrain from driving or operating machinery.

How can you successfully treat an infection if the bacteria do not respond to the antibiotic? Recent research in Canada and Italy has now shown that cannabidiol (CBD) can prevent this biochemical process. The Italian scientist and institute director Enrico Biancardi treated the dreaded superbug (supervirus) in a hospital in this way. "This highly resistant virus only became susceptible to the antibiotics thanks to the CBD," says E. Biancardi. Another international team of researchers has found through studies that CBD oils increase the effectiveness of antibiotics against certain types of bacteria and can also have a positive effect on the development of resistance.

They stimulate a part of our nervous system (endocannabinoid system, also known as ECS for short). This inhibits both inflammation and the transmission of pain impulses.

The focus of the study was on patients who suffered from ulcerative colitis and other painful intestinal inflammations. The scientists found that CBD has a proven positive influence on the environment of inflammation. STUDY REPORT: https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0028159 Endurance athletes often suffer from side stitches, nausea or heartburn. The reason for this is reduced oxygen and nutrient supply. Inflammation and oxidative stress occur, which can lead to gastrointestinal problems. Studies show that CBD can be promising for relieving pain and reducing inflammation. CBD has shown some effects that may be relevant for gastrointestinal problems caused by physical exertion. Here is a study on how CBD can help reduce intestinal inflammation. STUDY REPORT: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22163000/ CBD and DIABETES Recently it has been scientifically recognized (Hadassah University Hospital in Jerusalem) that CBD can be helpful in diabetes. In addition to the positive and independent reports from patients that can be found on the Internet, there are other interesting studies.

An important function of cannabidiol is the regulation of neurotransmitters in our nervous system. There are now many independent studies on this. STUDY REPORTS: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26711860 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21916860 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19732971 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24180398 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24652522 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21111017 CBD and inflammation CBD’S ANTI-INFLAMMATORY POWER The hemp ingredient cannabidiol (CBD) has clear anti-inflammatory properties. Current research results from the Friedrich Schiller University in Jena have shown that CBD not only reduces the release of pro-inflammatory messenger substances, but also stimulates the production of anti-inflammatory messenger substances. A special discovery is that CBD does not dock onto the body's conventional cannabinoid receptors. Instead, it activates the immune-regulating enzyme 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LOX), which plays a central role in the inflammatory process. This could explain the positive contribution of CBD to wound healing and tissue regeneration. Despite the variety of cannabinoids in cannabis, CBD showed the strongest anti-inflammatory effect, while the psychoactive THC was significantly less effective. These results could pave the way for CBD-centered therapies that address inflammation-related diseases without the problematic ingredient THC. Source: ARGE CANNA Austria CBD and EPILEPSY Incidentally, cannabidiol is said to have been used against epilepsy as early as the Middle Ages. Observations in children: As the researchers report in the journal of the National Institute of Health, they have examined in more detail the effectiveness of CBD-enriched cannabis preparations as perceived by parents in children with epilepsy, but especially with Dravet syndrome. To this end, the researchers not only documented the experiences the affected children had with the treatment, they also questioned the children's parents in detail about their perceived effectiveness of the CBD treatment. When the survey was evaluated, it emerged that the perceived effectiveness of the CBD products and their tolerability were equally positive for everyone. 85 percent of parents reported that their children suffered fewer seizures during the treatment phase thanks to the CBD products. 14 percent of parents even stated that their children did not suffer any more seizures at all during this time. Report: https://www.forschung-und-wissen.de/nachrichten/medizin/cbd-verringert-epileptic-anfaelle-bei-kindern-13372802 As published by the IACM, cannabidiol is said to be able to regulate the flow of information in the brain, which is why it has an anticonvulsant effect. This is why it can help with tonic-clonic seizures. Even minor twitches can be stopped by the cannabinoid.

Laboratory tests show that cannabidiol has positive properties when it comes to the skin's defense reactions. The findings show that irritated and impure skin, as well as various stages of irritated skin, respond very well to the active ingredient. A particular advantage is the almost complete absence of side effects, as is known from chemical products. Further studies demonstrate anti-aging effects of CBD. In 2019, a non-pharmaceutical CBD study was conducted on 150 subjects. The focus was on full-spectrum CBD oil and the associated anti-aging effects. The randomized placebo-controlled study was able to demonstrate significant effects of CBD on various anti-aging-related factors. A number of valid studies also point to the inflammatory effects of CBD. Their conclusion: "Since inflammation is particularly common in aging skin, caused by dry skin and the associated itching, CBD is an ideal natural alternative according to findings. CBD can also be beneficial with regard to oxidative stress with its antioxidant properties."

The latest discoveries are reported by researchers from Austria who have discovered that CBD can alleviate the effects of cancer-related chemotherapy. The researchers agree, and the German Cancer Information Service of the German Cancer Research Center in the Helmholtz Association also sees CBD products, especially CBD oils, increasingly being used as an adjunct to cancer therapy. But CBD products are also gaining ground in many other medical disciplines and are even replacing conventional medications. REPORT: https://www.forschung-und-wissen.de/nachrichten/medizin/cbd-lindert-follow-einer-chemotherapie-13374848 Like medicinal cannabis, CBD is said to have a supportive effect on numerous ailments.

First of all, CBD works primarily through the endocannabinoid system. This is a collection of receptors and endocannabinoids that regulate homeostasis in the body. There are endocannabinoid receptors in every organ in the human body. However, they are most highly concentrated in the central nervous system. References: Grotenhermen, F., & Müller-Vahl, K. (2012).

STUDY: https://idw-online.de/de/news754646 CBD and PMS – menstrual problems Menstrual headaches and period-related sleep disorders Affected women report sometimes unbearable headaches during PMS. Studies show that CBD can relieve headaches. This effect is proven by a study from the University of Michigan in the USA. Participants were people with sleep problems. They were given cannabis products as a therapeutic measure. Quote: "80% of those participants whose sleep problems were caused by pain said their sleep quality had improved significantly. The amount of uninterrupted sleep also increased." PMS anxiety and depression, stress and mood swings As part of a double-blind study, CBD was administered to subjects with elevated cortisol levels. Nothing changed in the placebo group, but the CBD group felt significantly less stress. The cortisol level had demonstrably decreased.

There are also countless reports on the Internet from sufferers who have successfully used CBD for sleep disorders. Most of them even completely avoided chemical medication, such as strong sleeping pills. CBD can therefore definitely help with most types of annoying sleep disorders. Modern research has also investigated a cannabinoid combination of CBD and CBN. Both cannabinoids together achieve maximum effects on stress, as well as problems falling asleep or staying asleep. According to studies published to date in the Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, the combination of CBD and CBN can promote restful sleep and improve sleep quality due to its anxiety and stress-relieving potential. CBN (cannabinol) is less well known but still effective. As a phytocannabinoid, it is extracted from the hemp plant in the same way as CBD and can act via the receptors of our body's endocannabinoid system. CBD binds to various receptors in the body, including the cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1) and type 2 (CB2), while CBN primarily binds to the CB2 receptor.

This is based, among other things, on the influence of the endocannabinoid system (ECS) and the neurotransmitter AEA. There are now numerous, very comprehensive scientific observations on this. According to studies published so far in the Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, the combination of CBD and CBN can effectively promote relaxation due to its anti-anxiety and stress-relieving potential.

This applies to THC-free products. Quote from the technical report: "If a sports injury is not properly cured, it can lead to chronic pain. Likewise, prolonged muscle soreness delays regeneration. Many athletes who exercise intensively use CBD drops and/or muscle lotions for regeneration." Especially in endurance sports, athletes often suffer from nausea, side stitches or heartburn. The reason for this is a reduced supply of oxygen and nutrients. Inflammation and oxidative stress occur. Research suggests that CBD is promising for relieving pain and reducing inflammation. STUDY: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22163000/ CBD products are particularly popular among athletes whose main goals are to build strength and muscle. Through improved regeneration and the prevention of inflammation, athletes can build and increase their muscle mass faster. Yankel Gabet and researchers from Tel Aviv University have now discovered another interesting approach using cannabidiol (CBD): They report: "The healing process for bone fractures is significantly faster and, in addition, the affected areas of the bone are stronger and more robust. This means that they no longer break as quickly as before." REPORT: https://www.forschung-und-wissen.de/nachrichten/medizin/cbd-heilt-beinbrueche-schneller-13372388 According to further studies, CBD has great potential to improve athletic performance. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7338332/ https://www.liebertpub.com/doi/10.1089/can.2016.0034 CBD and ANIMALS Although CBD oil is primarily aimed at humans, studies show that dogs, cats and horses can also benefit from its positive properties. However, special, different circumstances must be taken into account here. STUDY REPORT https://www.mdpi.com/2076-2615/9/10/832/htm A study by the father of cannabinoids, R. Mechoulam, from 1988 provides information on this, especially in dogs. STUDY : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2900742/ Further clinical studies from Canada and the USA confirm the success. In Canada and the USA, research and studies have already been carried out on animals using CBD. Success was achieved on both a physical and psychological level in dogs. Animals that often suffered from stress were helped to calm down and react more calmly. Particularly anxious animals and those that develop seemingly unfounded nervousness have become calmer and more relaxed with CBD. STUDY REPORT: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fvets.2018.00165/full CBD and OVERWEIGHT – OBESITY Conclusion according to the study report: “CBD has a stimulating property that encourages cells to break down excess proteins and fats in the body. Furthermore, losing weight with CBD is proven because cannabidiol stimulates the metabolism in general. CBD stimulates the body's own fat burning. Cannabidiol also has the property of curbing or blocking fat cell renewal. Successful weight loss with CBD is therefore quite conceivable." Countless, independent success stories from overweight people can be read on the Internet.

A comprehensive overview CONTENTS: Safety of CBD How much is too much? What happens if you take too much CBD? Dealing with a possible overdose Finding the ideal dosage CBD dosage and the right product The CBD content: How much is in one drop? CBD and medications: Consider interactions Can animals overdose on CBD? Conclusion: No overdose, but caution advised CBD, also known as cannabidiol, is increasingly valued as a natural way to promote well-being. But is it even possible to overdose on CBD? A clear overdose, as with intoxicating or toxic substances, is not to be expected with CBD. Nevertheless, there are some important aspects to consider in order to avoid unwanted reactions.   CBD Safety: What Science Says According to the World Health Organization (WHO), CBD has a good safety profile and is generally well tolerated. However, the question remains as to how much CBD could actually be too much - and whether there is even an upper limit. CBD: No intoxicating properties   CBD is fundamentally different from THC, the psychoactive ingredient in the cannabis plant. It does not cause intoxicating effects and does not limit perception. Even at higher doses, side effects rarely occur and are usually mild. Typical dosages in everyday life are often in the range of micro or standard doses.   How much CBD is too much? Scientifically, there is no fixed limit that defines an overdose. Studies show that even doses of up to 1500 mg per day are well tolerated, but only under medical supervision. Such high amounts are usually only used in a therapeutic context.   Smaller amounts are sufficient for everyday use. Microdoses (0.5–20 mg per day) promote general well-being and are easy to adapt to individual needs. Higher doses, however, should only be taken with caution and after consulting a doctor.     What happens if you take too much CBD? Although a classic overdose is not possible, excessive amounts of CBD can cause temporary discomfort, including:   fatigue and sedation Decreased appetite Diarrhea In rare cases, especially in cases of pre-existing liver disease or when taking medication that puts strain on the liver, elevated liver values may occur. In such cases, speak to your doctor.   Dealing with a possible overdose If you feel like you have taken too much CBD, stay calm. There is no need to worry as the effects will wear off once the cannabinoid is broken down by the body.   Here are some tips: Adjust dosage: Reduce the amount and observe how your body reacts. Do not combine CBD products: Avoid taking different CBD products at the same time to prevent an overdose. Pay attention to quality: inferior products can cause negative effects. Choose high-quality CBD oils from organic farming. Check for interactions: Consult a doctor if you take medications regularly to rule out possible interactions. Find the right form of intake: Whether oil or capsules – choose a product that suits your needs. Finding the ideal dosage Finding the right CBD dosage requires patience. Many users report positive experiences with the so-called "trial and error" method. Start with a low dose and gradually increase it until you reach your personal "sweet spot" - the ideal effect. Wait at least three to four days between adjustments so that your body can get used to the changes.   CBD dosage and the right product Correctly assessing the dosage of CBD is crucial for optimal effect. It is particularly important to know the CBD content in the product used. This is because each drop can have a different effect depending on the concentration. The form of administration also plays a major role - whether oil or capsules - as do individual needs and circumstances.   The CBD content: How much is in one drop? Do you know how many milligrams of CBD are contained in one drop of your oil? This information can usually be found on the packaging or in the leaflet. A clear overview of the amount taken helps to better control the dosage. Beginners in particular should start with small doses and increase slowly to achieve the optimal effect. For comparison:   5% oil: About 1.52 mg CBD per drop 10% oil: Around 3.04 mg CBD per drop   To begin with, follow the consumption recommendations on the product and adjust the dosage gradually if necessary.   CBD and medications: Consider interactions If you take medication regularly, you should be aware of possible interactions. CBD can affect the effect of some drugs, which can lead to unwanted reactions. Therefore, plan a time gap of about three to four hours between taking CBD and your medication. If you have existing liver problems or are taking medication, it is advisable to discuss use with a doctor, as CBD is not a substitute for medical therapy.   Can you overdose on CBD in animals? Current studies show that the targeted and controlled administration of CBD products is also considered safe for animals. However, it is crucial to follow the dosage instructions given on the product exactly. In particular, if you are taking medication at the same time, you should consult a veterinarian to avoid possible risks or interactions. Conclusion: No overdose, but caution advised CBD is considered to be well tolerated and safe in both humans and animals when used correctly. An overdose in the classic sense is unlikely when taken in a controlled manner. However, high doses can cause temporary side effects such as fatigue, diarrhea or loss of appetite. If you have existing liver problems or are taking medication, it is advisable to discuss use with a doctor or veterinarian. Pay attention to high-quality products, individual dosages and possible interactions with medication. With the right approach, you can make the most of the positive effects of CBD.   For optimal benefit, it is recommended to start with a low dosage and gradually increase it until the desired effect occurs. Give your body - or that of your animal - enough time to adjust to the new dose. With a high-quality CBD product and careful use, the ideal balance can be found. SOURCES: WHO. Cannabidiol.

CONTENTS: What is CBD? What can CBD do? What does the WHO say? What should I pay attention to? CBD stands for cannabidiol, which is one of the almost 100 ingredients of hemp that science has now discovered. These cannabinoids are extracted from the female hemp plant. WHAT IS CBD? The substances of interest to humans in the hemp plant, which was cultivated in China around six thousand years ago, are terpenes and cannabinoids. The extraction of these active ingredients is carried out using a special, complex process. Excess substances are filtered out. The CBD products from highly critical CO2 extraction are particularly high quality. The heat-free extraction process means that the entire spectrum of plant substances (hence full spectrum) and all valuable phytocannabinoids, with the exception of high levels of THC, are retained in the intoxicating part. These oils are the most efficient because the various ingredients together trigger the so-called entourage effect . This means that the full spectrum is better than a single isolated CBD active ingredient and has a higher bioactivity. The interaction between the cannabinoids such as CBD, THC etc. and the terpenes and phytocannabinoids of the hemp plant is therefore very crucial. ​ THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is known to most people. It is one of the intoxicating (psychoactive) substances in the hemp plant. ​ CBD, on the other hand, is not psychoactive and is not addictive, so taking it is legal because it is not intoxicating. This means that CBD is not subject to drug laws in Austria and Germany. In the EU, the THC (intoxicating part) value of all products must remain below 0.2 - 0.3%, i.e. almost nothing. ​ The topic of hemp and CBD is receiving such a great response these days! ​ CBD - Cannabidiol - known for thousands of years Many people now want to know more and more about how they can use the power of nature, legally and without chemicals, to achieve greater well-being, relaxation, a better mood and other positive benefits. CBD has been used by humans for thousands of years and is already being used again by millions around the world. And more and more people are looking to avoid chemical products. Regardless of their age, people of all kinds around the world have found potential health benefits from taking CBD regularly, from everyday people to professional athletes. Very few people know that up until the 1920s, 80% of all medicines were based on hemp! From then on, pharmaceutical and chemical companies took over the field. Nowadays, however, when more and more people are suffering from sometimes severe side effects, people are increasingly looking for a natural solution. Back to the roots! But with the modern technologies and knowledge that are possible today. ​ WHAT CAN CBD DO? Thanks to new medical evaluations, international studies and the expert knowledge of many doctors, the area of application of CBD is constantly expanding. Scientific and clinical studies, mostly from the USA, show great supportive potential. There are now around 23,000 studies being conducted worldwide on the wide-ranging, beneficial effects of legal cannabis on humans and animals. And scientists, doctors and institutions are continually identifying new areas of application and documenting them in numerous specialist books. Be it in the areas of sleep quality, relaxation, stress reduction, chronic complaints, allergies, PMS, skin care and especially problem skin, against viruses, inflammations in the body. Our blog post on this topic: What is CBD? Application from A to Z - scientific reports - studies ​ WHAT DOES THE WHO SAY? Unfortunately, there are still many prejudices against CBD (cannabidiol). CBD is often pushed into the drug corner by uninformed people. But CBD must be clearly distinguished from drugs! Loud WHO (World Health Organization) says that CBD is not addictive and is not harmful to health. On the recommendation of the WHO, the EU wants to increase research into medicines containing CBD in the future. This means that natural CBD oils can also be used over the long term and do not lead to addiction. Conclusion of the findings: CBD has a holistically positive effect on the organism. WHAT SHOULD I PAY ATTENTION TO? "The market is flooded with lower quality products. Some of these are made from synthetic CBD crystals, especially from Asia. This means that the production costs are significantly cheaper and so is the selling price. Also, some products sold on the market were tested by independent laboratories of ARGE Canna and it was found that the content and advertising statements do not match. However, prospective customers can hardly see any difference to high-quality full-spectrum products when they buy these products. However, the desired effect is not achieved. That's why it's all the more important to find a trusted dealer with personal contact and advice, and to pay attention to European cultivation, organic certifications, and the presence of the analysis certificate for the product. Reputable dealers always provide this. ​ ​  Disclaimer and general note on medical topics For legal reasons, we would like to point out that the effects of hemp and cannabinoids (CBD) described here refer exclusively to public scientific reports and specialist reports, publications and user experiences and are not to be understood as instructions for use or promises of healing.

Osteoarthritis is one of the most common joint diseases in the world, characterized by pain and wear and tear. Although the disease is considered incurable, there are numerous ways to promote your own well-being and slow the progression of joint problems. One of these is the use of products containing cannabidiol (CBD), a natural active ingredient from the hemp plant that is gaining more and more attention as a complementary support for osteoarthritis.   Overcoming the challenges of osteoarthritis People with osteoarthritis often face the challenge of dealing with severe pain in their joints and limited mobility. In addition to the classic medical and therapeutic approaches, many sufferers look for gentle alternatives to improve their quality of life. The focus is on maintaining joint function, relieving pain and making everyday life easier.   CBD products can be a promising addition here. They work through the body's endocannabinoid system, which plays a key role in regulating pain, inflammation and stress. Although CBD cannot cure osteoarthritis, it does offer the potential to increase well-being and improve quality of life. The benefits of CBD for joint problems CBD oil and other CBD products can – always in consultation with a doctor – provide gentle support for those affected.   The possible benefits of CBD include: Improving physical well-being: CBD can reduce inflammation and have a positive effect on general well-being. Promoting mental health: Chronic pain also puts a strain on the psyche. CBD can help reduce stress and tension. Long-term use: Since CBD is not addictive, it can be used permanently.   It is important to note that CBD products should not be seen as a substitute for medical treatment. Rather, they complement classic osteoarthritis therapy and offer herbal support that must be tailored to each individual. Better sleep, less pain Many users report that CBD not only relieves pain but also improves sleep quality. This is especially important because poor sleep can worsen chronic pain and vice versa. A restful night's sleep helps to better manage pain and supports the body's regeneration.   A study of 40 patients with chronic osteoarthritis pain showed that the daily dose of opioids could be reduced by taking cannabinoids. This underlines the potential of CBD to usefully complement conventional therapies. Gentle support for the joints Osteoarthritis may be incurable, but those affected can actively do something for their well-being. Herbal products such as CBD offer a natural addition to treatment and can make life with the disease easier. It is important to always coordinate use with a doctor and to seek professional help if symptoms persist. With the right support and a holistic approach, the quality of life can be noticeably improved even with osteoarthritis.   CBD for external use For osteoarthritis and similar complaints, gels and ointments for external use can be a valuable addition. By gently massaging in and using them regularly, these products can noticeably improve general well-being. Cooling CBD ointments for joint care Cold has long been known as a pain reliever, but it can also have anti-inflammatory and decongestant effects. A cooling CBD cream combines the active ingredient CBD with natural ingredients such as mountain pine, devil's claw and camphor. This combination ensures good tolerability and makes the cream ideal for long-term use, as it does not contain any pharmacologically active substances.   Soothing massages with CBD Massages can effectively support joint function by promoting blood circulation and increasing mobility and general well-being. Massage oil containing CBD can enhance these positive effects even further, making it an attractive option for therapists and sufferers. Scientific studies and experience reports A study from the University of Virginia examined the effects of CBD cream on patients with arthritis in the metacarpophalangeal joint of the thumb. The participants applied the cream twice a day and reported a gentle improvement in their well-being - without any unwanted side effects.   Hemp seed oil also shows promising results: In a placebo-controlled study, the effects of hemp seed oil on knee osteoarthritis were tested. Over a period of two months, the effects of hemp seed oil, diclofenac gel and placebo were compared. The results showed that hemp seed oil improved well-being more than placebo and achieved similar results to diclofenac gel.   CBD creams and massages therefore offer a natural and well-tolerated way to relieve joint pain and increase personal well-being.   Hemp products in the diet: A contribution to osteoarthritis prevention The right diet plays a central role in the treatment and prevention of osteoarthritis. It can help to slow down or even prevent wear and tear on the joints. We recommend foods with unsaturated fatty acids and high-fiber foods that are rich in minerals and trace elements. Hemp products such as hemp oil, hemp seeds or hemp protein offer an excellent source of nutrients. They score points with their high content of omega-3 fatty acids and micronutrients that support joint health.   Healthy weight protects the joints A normal body weight is an essential factor in preventing osteoarthritis. A balanced diet not only helps maintain weight, but also contributes to the well-being of the joints.   Holistic support through CBD The effects of osteoarthritis are not only physical. Many sufferers also struggle with psychological stress such as insomnia, depression or anxiety, which are exacerbated by constant pain. CBD can help promote psychological well-being with its calming properties.   A study of 2,976 people suffering from osteoarthritis found that 29% of participants also suffered from depression. These figures highlight the importance of holistic therapy that takes into account both physical and mental aspects.   Conclusion CBD and hemp products offer valuable support for osteoarthritis by positively influencing various aspects of the disease. While CBD improves sleep quality and promotes relaxation, hemp products provide essential nutrients for joint health. This combination can significantly improve the quality of life and ensure greater well-being - physically and mentally.   However, it remains important to note that the effectiveness of CBD for osteoarthritis has not yet been conclusively researched. Further studies are needed to fully understand the potential benefits. Nevertheless, CBD in combination with a healthy diet can be a useful supplement to maintain quality of life even in old age.

Using CBD and hemp seeds to combat spring fatigue Every year, when winter gives way to spring, many people feel extremely tired and lacking in energy. This so-called spring fatigue can make it difficult to start the warm season and noticeably reduce energy levels. Fortunately, there are natural remedies that can help the body adapt better to seasonal changes. CBD oil and hemp seeds are two valuable helpers that not only offer health benefits, but can also help specifically against spring fatigue.   Understanding Spring Fatigue Spring fatigue is not a simple lethargy, but is linked to various biological factors. The main causes are:   Hormonal changes: As daylight increases, hormone production changes. While the level of melatonin (sleep hormone) decreases, the production of serotonin (happiness hormone) increases. This adjustment can lead to tiredness. Vitamin D deficiency: During the dark winter months, the body often stores too little vitamin D, which results in tiredness and lack of energy.   Changed sleep patterns: Longer days and time changes often disrupt the biorhythm, which can lead to sleep problems.   Natural Ways to Combat Spring Fatigue Regular exercise in the fresh air promotes blood circulation and helps the body to adapt.   Get plenty of daylight to stimulate vitamin D production. Optimize your diet with sufficient omega-3 fatty acids, iron and vitamin D. Include fresh vegetables and herbs (e.g. wild garlic, dandelion, sprouts) in your diet.   CBD: Natural support for more energy and well-being CBD (cannabidiol), a non-psychoactive component of the hemp plant, is known for its calming properties. But beyond that, it can also help increase overall energy levels and improve well-being.   Stress relief: CBD can help reduce stress levels, which can be particularly beneficial during periods of transition, such as the change from winter to spring.   Better sleep quality: A restful sleep is essential to being energized during the day. CBD can help improve sleep quality so you wake up refreshed in the morning.   Mental clarity and balance: While coffee often leads to a burst of energy followed by a drop in performance, CBD offers a more stable source of energy. It promotes concentration and focus without the negative effects of overstimulation. Use of CBD for spring fatigue Dosage: Start with a low amount and adjust it individually until you achieve the optimal effect.   Time of intake: CBD can be used both in the morning and in the evening, depending on whether it is to be used to improve daytime energy or sleep quality. CBD oil is also available in flavorless capsules.   Hemp seeds: Power pack for energy supply Hemp seeds are a valuable superfood that provides the body with important nutrients that are needed especially in times of transition:   Omega-3 fatty acids: They support the brain, have an anti-inflammatory effect and help against fatigue.   Iron: Necessary for the transport of oxygen in the blood. A deficiency can result in exhaustion and a lack of concentration.   Magnesium: Important for energy production and the function of muscles and nerves.   Proteins: Essential for cell building and the body’s regeneration.   Easy Ways to Integrate Hemp Seeds   Hemp seeds can be used in many ways:   As an ingredient in smoothies, yoghurt or muesli   As a topping for salads or soups   Stirred into bread and baked goods   Vitamin D: A key factor for more energy Vitamin D plays a central role in the immune system, bone health and energy levels. Especially after winter, it is advisable to replenish your reserves with high-quality vitamin D drops. The combination with CBD hemp oil can improve absorption in the body.   use of vitamin D drops   Recommended dosage: For example, 2 drops provide 400 IU, while 5 drops contain 1000 IU.   Daily intake helps to compensate for deficiencies and stabilize energy levels.   Conclusion: Natural helpers for an energetic spring The combination of CBD, hemp seeds and vitamin D can effectively help to overcome spring fatigue. These natural remedies offer numerous health benefits and optimally support the body during the transition to the warm season. Those who integrate these elements into their everyday life can start spring with new strength and energy!   Disclaimer and general information on medical topics For legal reasons, we would like to point out that the effects of hemp and cannabinoids (CBD) described here refer exclusively to public scientific reports and specialist reports, publications and user experiences and are not to be understood as instructions for use or promises of healing.

Contents: Detox with hemp protein How to use hemp protein? Boost your metabolism Lose weight quickly with hemp protein? Science and Studies Complementary natural active ingredients The natural way to lose weight Hemp protein contains all the amino acids that are essential for us humans, which our bodies cannot produce themselves and which we must consume with food. Hemp protein is also rich in branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), which are particularly important for building or repairing muscle. And as a plant-based protein source, it offers a uniquely high bioavailability. It also contains fiber, so it also supports optimal digestion. Among these amino acids there are also abundant amounts of the two sulfur-containing amino acids methionine and cysteine, which are involved, among other things, in the detoxification of cells and the production of enzymes. In contrast to whey protein, which is often used in sports circles, hemp protein is a natural protein and not an isolate, which athletes often consume, because hemp protein not only provides protein, but also fiber, essential fatty acids and a variety of minerals and vitamins. The accompanying substances contained in hemp protein stimulate protein metabolism and optimize digestion. The acid-base balance can come into a healthy equilibrium and the body can remain in an anabolic muscle status. Lose weight and detoxify with hemp protein. Detoxification and weight loss go hand in hand How hemp protein helps with weight loss. Two of the biggest risks of losing weight are 1. a lack of micronutrients 2. Muscle loss due to insufficient Protein intake High-quality hemp protein can counteract both of these in a unique way. Losing weight is not rocket science. You have to put less (energy) into your body than it uses, so you have to consume fewer calories. However, many people make the mistake of simply reducing their portion sizes without changing the food they eat. But this is the secret to a diet that you both enjoy and one that promotes weight loss. When it comes to losing weight, some people rely on questionable diets, programs or products that promise quick results for a lot of money. But there is no shortcut to a long-term healthy body and a slim figure. Patience, self-discipline and a little basic knowledge are required. Natural protein from the hemp plant is certainly not a quick solution, but it helps immensely in maintaining discipline and patience in many ways. HEMP PROTEIN - A healthy way to lose weight! Of course, regular meal times are ideal for this project. There are simple guidelines to follow: The meal is divided into portions in a ratio of 1:1:2. 1 part carbohydrates (rice, millet, potatoes, sweet potatoes or buckwheat instead of pasta), 1 part proteins (fish, turkey, egg, lean meat, tofu), 2 parts vegetables. This is not about weight or calories, but about volume. No counting, no weighing. In this ratio, you can eat your fill at lunch and dinner and notice more well-being and success from day to day. Losing weight in this way would generally be very easy, healthy and therefore sustainable: HEMP "Powerclean" for protein supply Power booster for the metabolism Regular meals are often difficult, especially if you don't have the habit of doing so. In this case, a protein-rich replacement meal that is quick and provides you with plenty of nourishment can be very useful. There is no need for overpriced, pre-portioned ready-made protein shakes. Two or three tablespoons of hemp protein stirred or shaken into liquid is enough. As a valuable power food. Pimp your smoothie! Plant-based power source and metabolism activation for more energy and vitality. Of the three basic nutrients, carbohydrates, fat and protein, protein is the one that the body can least do without when in a calorie deficit. Protein in the form of easily digestible, hypoallergenic hemp protein is more of a food than a nutritional supplement, with ingenious properties, due to its controlled cultivation and gentle processing. It also contains important vitamins, amino acids and trace elements. In hectic everyday life, it is therefore a wonderful alternative to main meals . Keeps you full for a long time and helps reduce calories Natural support for weight management Ideal for vegans/vegetarians, health-conscious people, athletes and for maintaining vitality in seniors Suitable for sensitive people! No soy, milk, whey or eggs! Hemp protein against the yo-yo effect Why is protein so important for weight loss? Unfortunately, the body also loses muscle mass during a diet and the basal metabolic rate decreases. The body has more or less adapted to the new food situation. However, adequate muscle mass is one of the key factors for long-term weight loss success. And this muscle mass needs a certain amount of protein to maintain it in order to prevent the yo-yo effect. What happens with the yo-yo effect? After a diet with too little protein, belly fat and love handles return twice as quickly as they disappeared. The person trying to lose weight has just gone through another cycle of the dreaded yo-yo effect. 30 to 50 grams of hemp protein two to three times a day in the form of shakes, smoothies or porridge helps enormously. Ideally, this should be combined with moderate strength training in the exercise plan. In addition to the appropriate supply, the body should also receive the right signals, namely that muscle mass is not superfluous, but necessary. Hemp protein against cravings How do cravings arise? When you have overdone the calorie deficit and your body demands so much energy that it takes control of your otherwise disciplined mind. Or your body lacks proteins and micronutrients as part of an unbalanced diet. Hemp protein can also provide enormous support here. The list of vitamins and minerals in hemp protein is long, but above all it is rich in the often deficient minerals iron, zinc and magnesium. Three important nutrients for a well-functioning metabolism. Hemp protein ensures a more lasting feeling of satiety Hemp protein is produced by pressing hemp oil and is then simply pressed, ground and sieved. Hemp proteins contain between 13 and 30 grams of healthy fiber per 100 grams. While the proteins and micronutrients in hemp protein counteract any cravings, the fiber ensures a longer-lasting feeling of satiety. So why pay huge sums for advertised products that are merely a combination of dozens of isolated and synthetic nutrients, including a few E numbers, when there are natural products with significantly superior properties for much less money? Lose weight “quickly” with hemp protein? Be sure to approach weight loss slowly, healthily and sustainably. For those who ignore well-intentioned warnings and appeals and believe that they need to get a bikini figure for their vacation in just two weeks, here is at least some advice to limit the damage: If you are in a severe calorie deficit, at least ensure you have a stable supply of protein and minerals, and if possible from high-quality, natural sources. However, we absolutely do not recommend a hemp protein mono-diet, just a supplement. In such an exceptional situation in terms of nutrition, you are dependent on good, natural, effective and healthy products. And hemp protein is one of them.

Or simply every now and then when your clothes start to tug. There are also many interesting scientific findings and studies on this topic. Here is just an excerpt.

This reduces the effect of negative stressors, which is why GLA is suspected to be an effective remedy for many age-related illnesses (both mental and physical). Alpha, beta and gamma globulins in the hemp protein powder also break down old tissue and promote renewal. A study conducted at the University of Tampa confirmed the superiority of plant proteins. The prejudice that animal proteins are superior to the plant equivalent is thus once again refuted. In their study, the researchers found an equivalent effect in the body, with the short-term consequences being examined in particular, rather than the long-term effect.

Cannabidiol—better known as CBD—is more relevant than ever. However, anyone familiar with CBD products quickly encounters technical terms like "terpenes," "full spectrum," or "entourage effect." In this article, we explain all the key terms related to CBD—in a clear, concise, and concise manner. What is CBD? CBD stands for cannabidiol . It is a natural plant compound derived from the hemp plant. Unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the psychoactive component of cannabis, CBD is not intoxicating . Instead, it is valued for its calming , balancing, and anti-inflammatory properties—without the "high." What is THC? THC is the abbreviation for tetrahydrocannabinol . This active ingredient is also a cannabinoid from the hemp plant, but it is psychoactive. In legal CBD products, the maximum THC content is 0.2% – too low for an intoxicating effect, but useful for the holistic effect (see entourage effect). Why does it contain up to 0.2% THC? The legally permitted THC content of less than 0.2% has the following advantages: Contributes to the natural composition of the hemp plant Supports the so-called entourage effect Enhances the effect of CBD – for example, in cases of sleep, stress or inflammation Does not cause psychoactive effects – so it is legal and safe What are cannabinoids? Cannabinoids are active plant compounds that interact with the endocannabinoid system (ECS) in the body. Over 100 cannabinoids are known, including: CBD (cannabidiol) THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) CBG (cannabigerol) CBC (cannabichromene) CBN (cannabinol) These substances influence processes such as mood, sleep, appetite, pain perception or the immune system. What is the endocannabinoid system? The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is the body’s own regulatory system that consists of: CB1 and CB2 receptors body's own cannabinoids Enzymes for splitting and breaking down CBD acts indirectly on this system and helps to promote internal balance (homeostasis). What does “full spectrum” mean? A full spectrum CBD oil contains: CBD other cannabinoids such as CBG or CBC Terpenes Flavonoids up to 0.2% THC This composition is based on the natural plant and enables a particularly effective effect – the so-called entourage effect. In comparison: Broad spectrum contains no THC CBD isolate contains only pure CBD What is the entourage effect? The entourage effect describes the interaction of all natural plant compounds in hemp. CBD, THC, terpenes, and flavonoids often work better together than individually. Example: CBD with myrcene or CBG can have a stronger calming effect than isolated CBD. What are terpenes? Terpenes are aromatic compounds found in many plants, including hemp. They influence: Smell and taste of CBD products Mood, e.g. relaxing or activating the overall effect via the entourage effect Examples of terpenes: Myrcene – calming, relaxing Limonene – mood-enhancing, citrus-like Linalool – balancing, lavender-like Pinene – promotes concentration Flavonoids - antioxidant What is myrcene? Myrcene is one of the most common terpenes in the hemp plant. It is also found in mangoes, hops, and thyme. Effect: muscle relaxant sleep-promoting can enhance the effects of CBD and THC It is particularly valuable in products that promote sleep and relaxation. What are flavonoids? Flavonoids are secondary plant substances with positive health effects. They are also found in fruits, vegetables, and herbs – and in hemp. Effect of flavonoids: antioxidant (cell-protective) anti-inflammatory immune-boosting supporting the entourage effect Examples in hemp: Cannaflavins A, B and C Other important terms CBD isolate : Pure CBD without accompanying substances, easy to dose, but without entourage effect Broad spectrum : CBD with other plant substances, but without THC Decarboxylation : Heating CBDa to convert it into effective CBD Bioavailability : Indicates how much CBD can be absorbed by the body Carrier oil : Base oil such as MCT oil or hemp seed oil in which CBD is dissolved Conclusion: Those who understand CBD choose better CBD is more than a trend—it's a complex natural product. Those familiar with terms like full spectrum , myrcene , entourage effect , and flavonoids can select products more specifically and better tailor them to their needs.
