✖ Check out for more information about the endocannabinoid system and CBD! ──────────────────────────────────── Spinal cord injuries are rare, but they are life-altering. They occur when the spinal cord is physically injured and becomes unable to pass messages from the brain to the body and vice versa. Complete injuries prevent any signalling below the level of the injury, while incomplete injuries reduce the amount of signalling, sometimes blocking only sensation, or only movement. There is no truly effective treatment yet, but CBD is highly effective in two ways to improve cases of spinal cord injury. CBD reduces neuroinflammation which amplifies damage to the nerve itself. This is key for preventing deterioration in cases of incomplete injury, when the focus of management is on preserving unaffected tissue rather than healing damaged tissue. CBD also has neuroprotective properties thanks to its action as an antioxidant and gene expression promoter. ──────────────────────────────────── Check out our other videos! ──────────────────────────────────── About What Is CBD: We are an unbiased informational blog focused on providing highly accurate information brought from doctors, lawyers, healthcare and pharmaceutical professionals, cannabis industry influencers, and more.
