Just like humans have an endocannabinoid ( ECS ) system so do our pets. It is a very important aspect of their daily nutritional intake to include cannabinoid-rich supplements. Below we will discuss what is CBD and why people give CBD to their pets, plus the benefits of this natural compound.
Our ECS is comprised of both our immune and central nervous system with tiny receptors located throughout that interacts with cannabinoids found in the cannabis sativa plant.
Whether or not you believe that CBD has medical and therapeutic benefits the peer-reviewed research is piling up looking positive for the results. A majority of tests conducted on animals rather than humans have yielded positive results with most cases, leading to the tests being later conducted on humans. Even though humans have used cannabis throughout human civilization for both themselves and for animals we are still taking slow steps forward to approve cannabis-based medicines for human consumption.
During the middle of 2018, the US Food and Drug Administration approved its first CBD based medicine for human consumption. Epidiolex is approved and used for the treatment of rare forms of epilepsy in humans. A responsible pet owner must realize that cannabis products sold for human consumption are not developed for our pets and should not be used on them. However, there are many products developed specifically for our pets.
Our pets ECS helps regulate many bodily functions such as movement, memory, mood and even appetite and as they age may be prone to stress, anxiety issues and even skin conditions. CBD is a natural, non-toxic, non-addictive compound that does not cause our pets to experience psychoactive effects that are commonly associated with cannabis usage. It rather it helps regulate their ageing immune and nervous system by bringing it back to balance. CBD helps older dogs destress and relieve them of pain and inflammatory conditions associated with old injuries and ageing.
Pet CBD products are much better to give to your pets than CBD products developed for human consumption. Furthermore its easier to dose and safer for them to consume, although there would be no adverse side-effects giving your pets human products.
