Can CBD Benefit Hair Loss And Even Regrow It?

CBD oil’s anti-inflammatory effect is part of what makes it such an interesting supplement. Its natural potential to curb inflammation within the body may explain the reach of its benefits. This doesn’t mean that cannabidiol is the cure-all that some marketers and sellers claim, but its effects on inflammation throughout the body could be significant for addressing a range of issues.

We’ve talked about CBD oil benefits for skin, but could those same anti-inflammatory effects have an impact on the scalp and hair? What are CBD oil benefits for hair loss and regrowth? Will it cure baldness or transform dry, brittle, or thin hair into lush, silky locks? Some products may be eager to give this impression but it’s important to keep your expectations grounded in CBD’s established benefits.

CBD oil, specifically CBD hemp oil, has been shown to benefit the hair and nails in some ways. Researchers and doctors think this may be due to the prevalence of fatty acids, amino acids and other nutrients found in both cannabidiol and hemp seed oil. These nutrients, combined with CBD’s anti-inflammatory effects, could also have beneficial effects on the scalp and the hair follicles.

As the scalp absorbs fatty acids and amino acids, and other nutrients like vitamin E, the result can be stimulation and improvement of hair growth as well as improved circulation to this area of the body. CBD and hemp’s nutrients can also improve the condition of brittle, dry, or weak hair. Additionally, any inflammatory response that could be interfering with hair growth or condition might be corrected by CBD’s ability to curb inflammation.

There are some inflammatory and autoimmune issues that attack the scalp and the hair follicles, which can cause notable hair loss and interfere with the hair’s natural regrowth cycle. There aren’t yet many well-known studies testing the effects of CBD on this specific function of the body, but it’s possible that targeting inflammation and immune system dysfunction through the endocannabinoid system could help with such issues. As CBD oil affects the body via endocannabinoid receptors, some people have begun exploring its effect on hair regrowth and enhancement.

Even with this in mind, there is little evidence to suggest that CBD oil can do much to remedy the effects of hereditary hair loss. This means that it probably won’t be able to counter the effects of your genetics if male pattern balding or thinning hair tends to run in your family. You can usually tell if this type of hair loss is affecting you when the hair begins to recede or thin from the crown of the head to the hairline. This hereditary process usually cannot be controlled by any supplement or other substance.

If your hair loss is occurring or accelerating due to stress or other lifestyle issues, it’s possible that CBD oil can help reduce anxiety and tension, thereby interrupting the cycles that are negatively impacting hair regrowth.

Based on what we know so far, CBD oil, especially when combined with highly nutritious hemp oil, can be beneficial for improving hair quality and even stimulating hair growth in certain cases. There is, however, nothing to suggest that it’s the cure for hereditary hair loss, nor will serve as any sort of miracle hair growth product, so be wary of any sellers or products that promise these results.

If you’re dealing with an inflammatory, autoimmune, or stress condition, and you think your hair health may be compromised as a result, you may want to discuss CBD oil with your doctor to see if it’s a good option for you. If you’ve cleared CBD oil use with your doctor and you want to see how it may benefit your hair, you’ll be pleased to learn that it’s a low-risk addition to most health and beauty regimens, just make sure you only use products that are reputably manufactured and are high-quality.

New York City Adds More Exceptions To Pre-Employment Marijuana Testing Ban

An ambitious campaign to decriminalize psychedelics in Washington, D.C., is one step closer to placing their measure on the November ballot with the formal submission of tens of thousands of voter signatures. Organizers have been scrambling for weeks to collect enough signatures from D.C. voters by Monday’s deadline amid historically difficult circumstances: a global pandemic, months of stay-at-home orders and protests over racism and police violence that filled the streets of the nation’s capital. But with the help of innovative signature-gathering techniques and allies flown in from across the country, advocates said they had successfully submitted upwards of 35,000 signatures—more than enough to qualify the initiative. If approved by voters, Initiative 81 would make enforcement of laws against plant- and fungus-based psychedelics among the “lowest law enforcement priorities” for the Metropolitan Police Department. It would not, however, legalize or reduce penalties for the subs

Charlotte Figi The Girl Who Inspired A CBD Movement Has Died At Age 13

Charlotte had recently been hospitalized due to pneumonia, breathing problems and seizures. She was treated as a likely case of Covid-19, her mother, Paige Figi, said Wednesday, although she tested negative for the virus. “Charlotte is no longer suffering. She is seizure-free forever,” a family friend wrote on Paige Figi’s Facebook page, announcing Charlotte’s death. “Thank you so much for all of your love.” Charlotte became a symbol of the possibilities of CBD after CNN Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta told her story in the documentary “Weed.” In the film, Charlotte was shown to be a playful child who was overcome by horrific seizures, which were quelled with Charlotte’s Web, a marijuana strain named in her honor. Charlotte had Dravet syndrome, a rare form of epilepsy which was not controlled by medication. The Stanley brothers, marijuana growers in Colorado, were crossbreeding a strain of marijuana high in CBD and low in THC, its psychoactive ingredient. After Charlo

Virginia CBD Program Criticized As Multistate Medical Cannabis Operators Gain Edge

Seven companies are challenging a CBD licensing process in Virginia that resulted in multistate medical marijuana operators getting a majority of available licenses. The appeals called the process “wildly prejudicial.” Out of 51 applicants for five vertically integrated CBD and THC-A licenses, multistate operators received three, a situation that spurred the appeals, The Virginian-Pilot reported. Applicants filing the appeals complained the closed-meeting review process lacked fairness and transparency. One consultant to an applicant said the selections felt “predetermined.” The Virginia Board of Pharmacy reportedly sent information to the applicants in December explaining its selections, but some applicants weren’t satisfied. A board spokeswoman wrote in an email to the Pilot that the board “does not comment on pending litigation.” The five winning applicants , called “pharmaceutical processors,” have a year from winning the licenses to become operational. The multistate
