After researching the benefits of each product and the many bells and whistles that came with them, I was overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information available online. This company sells this, at this strength, at this dose and it can be a very daunting process for a beginner. However, an old friend of mine is available to help!
Piedmont Green was formed in 2019 by Eric Abarelli and Christian Dobson with the intention to bring a holistic and natural approach to healthy living through the benefits of CBD. Located in Kannapolis, North Carolina they have created quite a business despite the fact that they live on the Bible Belt–which opposes the use of cannabis. However, the team and business have made such a positive impact in the community, they were able to change their minds through education about CBD and the benefits. They also grow and make the products from their hemp, which makes it a small organic business.
What is CBD?
Eric was kind enough to explain what CBD is and how it affects our bodies. Here’s what he had for us:
CBD is a derivative from the Cannabis Sativa plant. It is derived from the hemp plant which contains minimal THC (legal limit is <0.3%) and is non-psychoactive. Everybody has an Endocannabinoid, which is a system that binds with one's nervous system, organs, and skeletal structures. It's composed of CB1-CB2 receptors, which are dormant cannabis receptors that are waiting for an external source. This system works in conjunction with the body to regulate serotonin dopamine, oxytocin and dopamine. Please do not self-diagnose, or do any other thing without consulting a doctor.
The Potential Benefits of CBD
Eric mentioned the many benefits of CBD to me, but the FDA has yet to approve the product. The bright side is that “The FDA approved only one CBD product. It was a prescription drug product to treat seizures related to Lennox Gastaut Syndrome (LGS), Dravet Syndrome (DS), or tuberous sclerosis Complex (TSC) in individuals one year and older.” This gives hope for the future, and a holistic approach to medicine.
There are many people who have used CBD and their experiences with it. However, doctors still don’t prescribe it. Despite the growth of medical marijuana cards across the United States, it is still yet to be legal in all 50 states. The updated list is here. On a better note, here might be some of the benefits of using CBD:
CBD could help with muscle pain/spasms and insomnia/sleep problems, fibromyalgia, autoimmune disorders, skin conditions (such as eczema or psoriasis), joint pains, Crohn’s Disease, IBS and migraines.
CBD may help those with attention disorders such as ADHD and ADD.
CBD may relieve certain Cancer related issues.
CBD may relieve blood pressure and oxidative stress on the heart.
CBD could help lower your eye pressure.
CBD can help reduce anxiety and stress, and act as a mood stabilizer.
CBD can help with epilepsy and seizures
