Benefits of Broad-Spectrum CBD?

Posted by Darron Bryant - Wounded Warrior CBD on Jan 7th 2025

When CBD is consumed, it can affect bodily functions in many different ways.

When broad-spectrum CBD is consumed, a wide range of other cannabinoids also affects the body.

CBD and other cannabinoids present in broad-spectrum CBD interact with CB1 and CB2 receptors in the endocannabinoid system. This signaling system is responsible for many functions within the body.

When these cannabinoid receptors are activated, several benefits may occur:

  • CBD Blocks Pain

CBD is renowned for its pain-relieving qualities.

People that suffer from chronic pain can benefit from CBD for this reason.

CBD can be consumed orally or used in the form of a topical to ease joint pain and sensitive skin directly at the source.

As one study suggests, using a wide range of cannabinoids is the best way to relieve pain symptoms.

Although pure CBD isolate is an effective pain-reliever, broad-spectrum CBD is far more effective due to the cannabinoids working together (the entourage effect).

  • CBD is an Anti-inflammatory

CBD has anti-inflammatory qualities.

Studies have discovered that when full- and broad-spectrum CBD is used in oral and topical forms, it can work as an anti-inflammatory.

Scientific and anecdotal research shows that CBD can reduce inflammation for a variety of conditions. Potential conditions it may help are psoriasis, dermatitis, eczema, acne, and more.

  • CBD May Prevent Nausea

Broad Spectrum CBD may prevent nausea.

Although there’s limited scientific evidence to prove this, patients suffering from nausea-related side effects from other medications have been using CBD to ease the symptoms for years.

It‘s especially popular with cancer patients looking to ease the side effects of invasive cancer treatments such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

  • CBD Has Neuroprotective Properties

The endocannabinoid system plays a huge part in the modulation of neurotransmitters. CBD interacts with the CB1 and CB2 receptors of the endocannabinoid system, suggesting an effective treatment for neurological disorders.

There has been a lot of research into the neuroprotective benefits of CBD in epilepsy and multiple sclerosis patients.

One particular study found evidence that CBD and other cannabinoids reduce spasms in multiple sclerosis patients.

Although most of the evidence does suggest THC has the most promising effects on neurological disorders, broad-spectrum CBD has great potential as a neuroprotector.

  • CBD Aids Mental Health

CBD is popular among people with anxiety, severe stress, depression, and SAD (seasonal affective disorder).

One study, in particular, looked into the effects of CBD when administered to people with SAD. People with the disorder tend to suffer from anxiety, stress, and depression during the winter months due to light and weather changes.

  • 6. CBD Has Many More Benefits…

CBD has many health benefits; some backed by science and some backed by personal experiences.

Research into CBD’s effects on certain conditions is limited. However, there’s a list of conditions with a large amount of scientific or anecdotal research into the effects CBD has on them.

Here are just a few other conditions people are using broad-spectrum CBD oil to support:

  • Asthma
  • Arthritis
  • Diabetes
  • Obesity
  • High blood pressure
  • Mental health disorders
  • Addiction & withdrawal
  • Insomnia
  • Varied skin conditions
  • Epilepsy
  • Cancer
