Perhaps you have notise that in the health industry there is an emphasis on combine CBD and coconut oil... And there is an excellent reason for this... 

"Our bodies to properly digest and absorb nutrients, must break down and absorb compounds via the intestinal wall and here is where this combination make the differense"

But before we look at why these two oils make such a great couple, lets take a closely look at some of the health benefits of each one separate.

About Coconut Oil...

Coconut oil 
is widely marketed as a superfood and there is a good reason for this.
The unique combination of fatty acids in coconut oil may have positive effects on our health, such as boosting fat loss, heart health, and brain function.
Here are some of the most popular health benefits of coconut oil: 
  1. Antibiotic
  2. Anti-viral
  3. Antibacterial Properties

"CBD Oil for Peripheral Neuropathy"







CBD Oil for Peripheral Neuropathy mycannashop
Neuropathy can affect your overall wellbeing and quality of life. It involves an intense pain that is challenging to manage because it affects the nerves of the peripheral nervous system. 
Patients suffering from neuropathy often use opioids pain medications. Although these medications can be useful in reducing pain, they pose the risk of overdose, addiction, and abuse.
Due to this, most people look for alternative treatments.
CBD is becoming a preferred alternative remedy for patients with neuropathy. This is because its the non-psychoactive component of marijuana that has numerous health benefits. CBD doesn’t produce any side effects and is an appropriate option for patients.
What is Peripheral Neuropathy?
Understanding what Peripheral neuropathy means is important to appreciating the possible remedy that CBD oil brings to the victims. It is a medical disorder that occurs when there is damage to the nerves that link the other body parts such as skin and muscles to the spinal cord and the brain. Damage to these nerves interferes with communication between other parts of the body and the brain. Besides, it reduces sensation in the legs and arms, affects movement and causes pain.
However, the dose matters when it comes to neuropathic pain, and it is crucial to start with small doses and examine their impact on your body before increasing the quantity. Once you get a preferred dosage, stick to it.

"Why Aging Immune Systems Are More Vulnerable to Virus & How Can You Boost Your Immunity Through Foods"?

Aging Immune Systems and  Immunity
Having a strong immunity is important in the fight against coronavirus and general all the virus.
A stronger immune system allows the body to fight diseases and viruses.

While some people can be born with a good immunity, some others must build on it.
But as we age, our immune system weakens and our capability to respond to infections gets slower. As a result maintaining a balance and following these guidelines helps create a stronger body that can sustain in the long run.
Dr. Sean X. Leng and his laboratory team at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, study the biology of healthy aging with a focus on chronic inflammation in late-life decline. The lab also studies “immunosenescence” the decline in immune function as we age. Leng’s team is interested in the relationship between immunosenescence and the basic biological and physiological changes related to aging and frailty in the human immune system.

"Omega Fatty Acids Can Fight Inflammation via Cannabinoids"

Omega Fatty Acids  Inflammation via Cannabinoids Mycannashop
Cannabinoids are found in cannabis plant and also are produced naturally from our body (Endocannabinoids) from the omega fatty acids (-3, -6, -9).

We know that omega-3 acids are useful to the ECS 
for two reasons.
A, it helps the cannabinoid receptors to be more active.
B, those omega-3s and phospholipids are used as backbone structures to produce cannabinoids in the body.


We also know that Omegas they have anti-inflammatory benefits but a study reveals the cascade of chemical reactions that converts omega-3 fatty acids into endocannabinoids...

"Cannabis oil or foods such as meat, eggs, fish and nuts contain omega-3,-6,-9 fatty acids, which the body converts into endocannabinoids: said Aditi Das, a University of Illinois professor of comparative biosciences and biochemistry, who led the study. 

"Cannabinoids in Cannabis plant and endocannabinoids produced in the body can support the body's immune system and therefore are attractive targets for the development of anti-inflammatory therapeutics" she said.

"Should You Use Cannabis to Prevent Illnesses"???


Did you know that we could target in the ECS to prevent illness and maintain better health?
Our bodies consist of many unique physiologic systems whose sole purpose is to maintain an internal balance called homeostasis. 

We know the pancreas releases insulin to balance glucose levels between the bloodstream and cells. The thyroid gland releases thyroid hormone, which regulates vital bodily functions related to metabolism, body temperature and much more. Acctually our bodies are working constantly to stay balanced in response to our external environment.

The "Endocannabinoid System" (ECS)...

In the quest to understand how THC causes its intoxicating effects, scientists discovered that we have yet another regulatory physiologic system, called "Endocannabinoid System" (ECS) whose role is to maintain bodily homeostasis & biological harmony. Acctualy the ECS  is the most widespread receptor system in the human body and has been described as being protective and necessary for life.

Why Hemp is The New Superfood...?

Hemp can play a leading role in your quest for the healthiest you! 

It is an outstanding and delicious source of protein with every essential fatty acid and amino acid you need for optimum nutrition.In addition, it is packed with vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants, fibre and more. 



According to Hemp Foods Australia, hemp contains almost as much protein as soya beans, however, due to its protein composition, it is far more digestible.
It’s extremely high in calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc and contains next to no carbohydrates. Hemp is also one of the only known foods to contain Vitamin D3, a vitamin normally obtained from the sun.

Hemp is currently used in the production of many different types of products such as textiles and building products, however, Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) has recently opened up applications to permit foods derived from hemp.

"Cannabis & Bipolar Disorder"


Bipolar disorder
 (BD) is a brain disorder that causes unusual shifts in mood, energy, activity levels, and the ability to carry out day-to-day tasks. The types of BD and all of them involve clear changes in mood, energy, and activity levels. 

These moods range from periods of extremely “up,” elated, and energized behavior (known as manic episodes) to very sad, “down,” or hopeless periods (known as depressive episodes). Less severe manic periods are known as hypomanic episodes.
How Cannabis Can Be an Effective Treatment for Bipolar Disorder...? 

Studies supporting the use of medical cannabis for Bipolar Disorder and that can help you manage your symptoms with the right treatment plan, but let's see what the studies say...

"Hemp Oil Vs. Fish Oil"

Most of us have heard that fish oil is good for us. It contains Omega-3 fatty acids that our bodies need but can’t produce: ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), EPA (eicosa-pentaenoic acid), and DHA (docosa-hexaenoic acid). ALA is converted to EPA and DHA in the body. 

Since they cannot be produced by the body, they need to be obtained through the consumption of foods or supplements.

Omega-3 fatty acids are important because they interact with our Endocannabinoid System, the regulatory system within our bodies known to bring us back to homeostasis (a.k.a. balance). They support many bodily functions and boost immunity as well. Deficiency of Omega-3 fatty acids have been linked to multiple health issues such as heart disease, mental illness, and arthritis.
Although there is enough evidence proving that the human body may benefit from the Omegas in fish oil, there is another option:

"Why We Have Cannabinoid Receptors and what they mean for overall health"?


"Cannabis has been a part of human life for over 10,000 years. Here’s why we have cannabinoid receptors and what they mean for overall health".

Have you ever wondered why cannabis has such strong medicinal and psychoactive effects? The herb interacts with the body in ways that no other plant can. The plant contains chemical compounds that are unique to cannabis alone, making it an anomaly in the great wide world of flora. These compounds are called cannabinoids and they are able to engage with special landing locations on human cells. But, why do we have these cannabinoid receptors, anyway?
