CBD for Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia is a widespread ailment that affects approximately 2% of all adults (millions globally). So can CBD help relieve or prevent Fibromyalgia?

Unfortunately, fibromyalgia does not yet have a cure. As a result, many suffering from it are looking towards natural sources of relief for their chronic and severe symptoms like pain, inflammation and sleep issues.

Now, CBD is not a magic cure for fibromyalgia. However, various studies do suggest CBD may have therapeutic benefits for managing the chronic pain and insomnia caused by this complex disease. 

Hence, it’s important to understand the healing properties of CBD and its potential for relieving some of the various symptoms of fibromyalgia.

Can CBD Help Prevent Fibromyalgia?

CBD is known to boost your serotonin levels, which in turn may help to reduce pain and inflammation, lower anxiety, and improve overall feelings of wellness.

This has sparked interest among doctors and researchers in finding possible connections between CBD consumption and a lower risk of fibromyalgia.

Is CBD Safe & Legal?

Our bodies naturally produce CBD. Supplementing with plant-sourced CBD may provide a safer and more natural source of relief than prescription drugs which can often trigger side effects or cause intoxication. 

CBD is sourced from hemp and is non-psychoactive. So, CBD does not cause any “high.” Of course, like any other natural substance, overdosing on CBD can cause side effects like drowsiness. However, you would have to drink many liters of CBD oil to overdose – something we don’t recommend at all!

As for legality: according to the Cannabis Act of 2018, all CBD products are legal to purchase and consume so long as they’re for personal and medicinal purposes.

Does CBD Prevent Symptoms of Fibromyalgia?

As mentioned earlier, there is no research that shows CBD is a cure for fibromyalgia. However, CBD may help to relieve some of the symptoms of this awful conditon. How does CBD do this? Whether it’s produced in our bodies or comes from a hemp plant, CBD plays a critical role in our bodies by working together with our CB2 receptors to regulate our pain and inflammation.

In fact, a study conducted in 2016 showed that a deficiency of endocannabinoids may cause some of the symptoms found in fibromyalgia and even migraines. Another study in 2017 showed the effect of CBD in the hypersensitivity of cells during chronic pain, including fibromyalgia. 

In 2019, a group of researchers conducted a randomized experiment where fibromyalgia patients were given Bediol (containing both CBD and THC), and the rest received a placebo. Those given who were given the Bediol (with CBD & THC) experienced about 30% less pain than those receiving nothing.

Another observation was conducted in Israel under the supervision of nurses, who distributed medical cannabis to fibromyalgia patients. Among hundreds of participants, 82% were women. Over six months, the dosage of CBD was increased gradually, resulting in only 7.9% of the participants reporting high levels of pain compared to the initial 52.5%.

As for sleep, there are now many studies showing the positive benefits of CBD for those suffering from disturbed sleep or those having trouble getting to sleep.

Moreover, a 2020 study also showed a positive therapeutic impact of CBD for fibromyalgia. Thus, as research has shown, CBD may help to relieve some symptoms of Fibromyalgia such as chronic pain, inflammation and insomnia.

Effective Products to Relieve Fibromyalgia

You can choose from a host of Isolate or Full-Spectrum CBD products according to your personal preference and health requirements.

While pure CBD isolate is a safe and effective source of relief, a combination of CBD plus other cannabinoids in Full-Spectrum CBD may offer the most effective for pain relief, inflammation and insomnia.

This is because when multiple cannabinoids like CBD, CBDV, CBG and THCV are combined it causes a synergestic “entourage effect,” where each cannabinoids enhances the effects of each other. Many users even report finding effective relief with Full-Spectrum when Isolate has not worked for them. However, everyone responds differently to CBD so it’s important to find what works best for you.

Now, let’s take a look at the different forms of CBD available on the market…

1. CBD-Edibles

CBD edibles include everything from gummies to baked goodies! Effective and almost always delicious, edibles do not cause any respiratory damage like smoking and vaping. Moreover, you can consume them discreetly in public places. Thus, this form of CBD is ideal for those wanting a tasty and convenient way to take their CBD.

Given below is a list of common CBD edibles…

  • Delicious candies like CBD gummies
  • Desserts and snacks including cookies, brownies, waffles, and biscuits

2. CBD and Balms

If you are still skeptical about the effects of consuming CBD, we suggest trying out some CBD topicals. Symptoms like external pain and inflammation can be effectively tackled with CBD-infused creams, balms, and oils. Some of these products have help to treat skin problems like acne, too.

3. Oils and Tinctures

CBD oils and tinctures provide the most efficient and potent relief. If you’re new you can check out a CBD Dosage guide that will help you get started. Or, you can start with the average dose (0.5mL of oil) to see how your body reacts then adjusting your dose accordingly.
