Multiple Sclerosis (MS) & CBD patches

MS (Multiple Sclerosis) is a serious disease of the central nervous system that is often accompanied by inflammation, joint pain, muscle contractions and fatigue. Symptoms vary greatly from person to person and can cause many problems in daily life. Unfortunately, the disease is still incurable, leading many patients to seek remedies to relieve symptoms. MS seems to work well for many people in relieving pain symptoms, increasing quality of life.



CBD for MS symptoms
MS affects the brain and nervous system, not directly the muscles. As a result, the symptoms experienced vary from person to person. There is no set stage that people with MS go through, as symptoms depend on the areas affected. There are many symptoms that can accompany MS, from cognitive symptoms related to short-term memory to physical symptoms. Symptoms can be short-term or very long-term, one-off or chronic. CBD oil's action on the endocannabinoid system can reduce several symptoms, including a decrease in the number and severity of inflammation in the nervous system. 

What does MS look like?
MS is a disease of the central nervous system about which much is still unknown. For example, the exact cause of Multiple Sclerosis is not known and the course of the disease cannot be predicted. In all likelihood, several factors play a role. Among other things, evidence has been found that viral infections, heredity and eating habits play a role. In most people, MS begins as a disease in which seizures wane. The body can still repair the damage that has occurred, making the complaint disappear. At some point, this no longer works and the pain can become more chronic.


What is CBD?
CBD is the abbreviation for cannabidiol. This is one of more than 100 organic compounds in hemp plants. When people use CBD or other cannabinoids, something very special happens. This is because cannabidiol interacts with the body's own endocannabinoid system, which affects sleep, appetite and mood, among other things. This system also affects the immune system and has anti-inflammatory effects. When the system is out of balance, you can use external cannabidiol, such as CBD oil. This dietary supplement is 100% natural and contains no psychoactive substances. Therefore, it is not to be confused with cannabis oil, which contains THC and can therefore cause a high or stoned feeling. CBD contains up to 0.2% CBD and is available completely legally in the Netherlands and many other countries. An added benefit of CBD is that it is non-toxic and well tolerated by the body.

How can CBD help with MS?
As mentioned, CBD oil has a positive effect on the endocannabinoid system (ECS). As a result, using this natural supplement can provide more balance in the body. This manifests itself through a calmer feeling, better sleep, more muscle strength, less spasms, better mobility and less muscle pain. With CBD, you can naturally support your own system and this is a safe method to improve the quality of life.
