Hemp Flower CBD Oil For ADHD

Cannabidiol (CBD) is a compound found in cannabis that is thought to have a variety of mental health benefits. We already know that CBD oil benefits anxiety, but can it also help with ADHD? Many people have speculated that it could also be useful in the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Before you choose to try it, you should learn more about CBD oil, what research says about what it can do, and what benefits and side effects it may have for alleviating ADHD symptoms.
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder that is most commonly identified in childhood. Inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity are some of the symptoms.

The flowers of the hemp plant are used to make CBD oil. CBD is extracted from the hemp plant and combined with a carrier oil like hemp seed oil, MCT oil, olive oil, or sunflower oil. If you are wondering how to identify the hemp plant, compared to the cannabis plant, you are not alone. Basically, at this point, the only difference is in the amount of THC in the plant. If it has less than .3% THC, it is legally considered hemp, while a cannabis plant testing over .3% THC is considered marijuana. According to studies, it appears to be relatively safe and well-tolerated, though more research is needed to examine the potential long-term effects.

Hundreds of different compounds can be found in the cannabis plant. The most common and well-known of these is tetrahydrocannabinol (or THC). It is also the substance that gives marijuana its psychoactive effects. In other words, THC is responsible for the euphoric high associated with marijuana use. CBD, respectively, is the cannabis plant's second most abundant cannabinoid. Although it does not produce the same high as TCH, it has an effect on the brain and is linked to some mental health benefits, including potential advantages for people with ADHD.

Some proponents of CBD oil for ADHD assert that:

• It may be more effective than other treatments. 
• It may have fewer side effects than traditional medications. 
• Research suggests that it may help with ADHD symptoms. 
• It could have additional mental health benefits. 

One of the benefits of using CBD oil may be the ability to avoid some of the side effects associated with the conventional ADHD treatments.
While the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that between 70 and 80 percent of children with ADHD experience a reduction in symptoms after taking stimulant ADHD medication, they can cause side effects such as sleep problems, decreased appetite, and mood swings. Before making the decision to use CBD oil to treat ADHD, it is critical to analyze the available research and do your own due diligence. Also, you may want to consult your doctor before attempting any alternative treatments.

So, what do the experts think? Is CBD oil truly effective in the treatment of ADHD? CBD's popularity has far outpaced research into its applications, safety, and efficacy.
While believe in the healing power of CBD, the truth is that research on the use of CBD as a treatment for ADHD is still a bit limited. The majority of what researchers already know comes from studies on the effects of smoked or ingested marijuana rather than CBD oil or other CBD products. We would love to see some trials on smokable hemp flowers in addition to the aforementioned cannabis studies.
Even the research on the use of marijuana in the treatment of ADHD is limited. Many of these studies also rely on self-reported data, which does not provide as much evidence as a clinical trial.CBD may help to reduce hyperactivity.

Cannabis use and ADHD subtypes were investigated in a 2013 study. People were more likely to self-report hyperactive-impulsive symptoms when they were not self-medicating with cannabis, according to data collected from over 2,800 participants. This suggests that people who self-medicate with marijuana may find relief from hyperactivity and impulsivity symptoms. The same also appears to be true for those using low THC cannabis, like high CBD hemp flowers.

Adults with ADHD treated with the cannabinoid medication Sativex (which contains THC and CBD) showed a minor reduction in ADHD symptoms with no cognitive impairments in a small randomized controlled trial published in 2017.
It is important to note, however, that these improvements were minor and insufficient to demonstrate that cannabinoids were significantly more effective than placebo treatment.
A 2020 study discovered that higher doses of medical cannabis were associated with a decrease in the use of ADHD medication in adults.
CBD products with a higher CBD content were associated with lower ADHD scores. This makes high CBD hemp flower and CBD oil a great candidate for treating ADHD. You can find hemp flowers for sale at retail CBD shops, or online at DreamlandOrganics.com.

While these findings suggest that cannabis and cannabinoid compounds may hold promise as ADHD treatments, that does not imply that CBD oil alone may have an effect on the condition's symptoms. Additional research is also required to determine the role of the endocannabinoid system in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. A full spectrum CBD or THCa oil, or raw hemp flowers may prove to be a more effective solution, as the minor cannabinoids and terpenes present in hemp may also play a role in treating ADHD.

CBD has shown potential as a possible treatment for a variety of mental health conditions, so it may be useful in reducing anxiety and depression symptoms in people who also have ADHD.
While more research is needed to fully understand CBD's effects, some studies have shown that it can be effective in alleviating symptoms of a variety of anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and social anxiety disorder and PTSD.
CBD has also been shown to have an antidepressant-like effect, suggesting that it could be useful in the treatment of depression. It is important to realize that much of this research is still in its early stages. More research is needed to investigate the effects of CBD, what conditions it may treat, and what doses may be most effective.
If you are considering taking CBD, you should be aware that, while it is generally well-tolerated, it may cause some  mild side effects.

 CBD oil may have a number of negative side effects. Although many of these symptoms are minor, the following are some of the more occurances:

• Increased Appetite
• Sleepiness 
• Headaches 
• Mood swings 
• Nausea

Although research suggests that CBD appears to be safe and well-tolerated at doses up to 1,500 mg per day, side effects may be more common at higher doses. It's also worth noting that CBD can interfere with the metabolism of certain medications.

Aside from the most common side effects, there are also concerns about the potential worsening of certain ADHD symptoms. Some of the side effects of marijuana use are also common symptoms of ADHD.
While CBD oil does not have psychoactive properties, it would not seem to elicit any of the side effects common to marijuana. Therefore, CBD oil and flowers appear to be more beneficial to treating ADHD than high THC cannabis. With so many hemp strains now available, it appears that CBD flower can offer specific treatments to individuals based on each individual hemp strain's properties.

So, should you experiment with CBD oil for ADHD? Some things to keep in mind:

• CBD and hemp flowers are natural and thus a much better ADHD treatment when compared with liver toxic pharmaceutical drugs. Even better would be to look to organic CBD oil with no fillers and organic hemp flowers. That way you can be sure of no added chemicals or additional potential side effects. We always recommend organic remedies over big pharma.
• CBD oil takes time, usually 30-45 minutes to get into your bloodstream.Therefore, if you desire immediate relief, you may opt for hemp flowers, as CBD can enter your system a lot quicker. When looking for hemp flowers for sale, always choose organic!
• CBD is still unregulated, so you must do your due diligence to find a reputable company. Organic hemp flower farms like Dreamland Organics, which sell direct to consumer, would be your best bet for quality, value and safety. An added benefit of ordering CBD directly from the company that grows the hemp flower, is you can ask questions as to how the products are made and how the CBD flower is grown.

There are various types of CBD oil to choose from, and it is still unclear which CBD products may be beneficial in the treatment of ADHD. These types differ according to what they contain. CBD oil isolate is made up of only CBD. CBD and other cannabinoids are present in broad-spectrum products, but not THC. CBD, THC, and other cannabinoids are present in full-spectrum products.
According to some studies, CBD may play a role in mitigating some of the negative side effects of THC. In addition full spectrum CBD oil activates the entourage effect and may be more effective for ADHD than CBD isolates.

If you decide to try CBD oil for ADHD or other reasons, make sure you get it from a reputable source. CBD products are frequently mislabeled, and because there is no federal regulation of these products, it is difficult to know what you are getting. 
Avoid CBD companies who sell synthetic cannabinoids like delta 8, as they are surely not concerned with organic practices, or their customers health. Unfortunately, many CBD brands only care about profits.
There is also no research comparing the effects of various CBD types. CBD is also available in capsules, gummies, sprays, tinctures, candies, beverages, and vaping oils, in addition to oil. As a hemp flower farm, we feel that smokable hemp flowers tend to be the most effective treatment for any ailment, as they are unprocessed and provide a full spectrum of benefits.

While CBD is becoming increasingly popular, its legal status varies according to where you live. CBD is legal in all 50 states, but many have restrictions based on the amount of THC in the product. While many states have passed laws legalizing CBD and other cannabis products, any product containing more than 0.3 percent THC is illegal under federal law.
The FDA has also issued warnings about companies selling unapproved CBD products while making unsubstantiated claims about their effectiveness in the treatment of ADHD and other conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and autism.
The Federal Trade Commission Act forbids manufacturers from making claims about a product's ability to prevent, treat, or cure a disease unless such claims are supported by credible scientific evidence. But just because the FDA claims that CBD, or any other product cannot cure or prevent any disease, we obviously know this does not make it so. Many natural products do in fact at least help alleviate many ailments. The real issue is the FDA only promotes pharmaceuticals to cure and prevent disease, which is laughable and not logical seeing as synthetic drugs are liver toxic and have a host of side effects.

While many naysayers claim there is not enough "scientific research" to say CBD can help those with ADHD, we beg to differ. The reason for this is we have customers who claim that our full spectrum hemp flowers and CBD products do just that! While we are all for actual scientific research, we are also for common sense. If an organic product shows measurable benefit to an individual, with little to no side effects, we say that it is effective. Otherwise, you can claim to need more research to prove that rain makes you wet, but we know we are wet when the water drops on us. Let's use a bit of common sense and not get lost in the scientific sauce. CBD heals, bottom line.
