It is also legal to varying extents in all fifty states. While some may claim an outlandish number of benefits that can be derived from CBD, some positive effects have scientific studies backing them.<\/p>\n<p>CBD is said to help with <span style=\"font-weight: 900;\">anxiety,<\/span> and one small <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/30328956\/\">study<\/a> indicates that a certain measured dose of CBD oil can do just that. More studies and human trials are underway to confirm this effect.<\/p>\n<p>Directly related, some small studies have indicated that CBD may help ease the effects of <span style=\"font-weight: 900;\">post-traumatic stress disorder<\/span> when coupled with therapy.<\/p>\n<p>Other small <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/31793418\/\">studies<\/a> show that topical application of CBD may help reduce <span style=\"font-weight: 900;\">physical pain,<\/span> particularly for people suffering chronic, non-cancer pain.<\/p>\n<p>The best-studied and scientifically established use of CBD is to treat certain kinds of <span style=\"font-weight: 900;\">epileptic seizures.<\/span> Based on several large <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fda.gov\/news-events\/press-announcements\/fda-approves-first-drug-comprised-active-ingredient-derived-marijuana-treat-rare-severe-forms\">studies<\/a> that demonstrated CBD\u2019s effectiveness, the FDA approved the first medication to include cannabinoids in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>While there appear to be many possible benefits to taking CBD, there is a risk of side effects, which can include nausea, liver injury, fatigue, and irritability.
