CBD for Migraines: A Natural Option for Headache Relief
Migraines are more than just a bad headache—they can be debilitating. If you’re one of the 39 million Americans who suffer from migraines, you’ve probably tried everything from quiet dark rooms to prescription meds. But have you considered CBD for migraine relief?
What Is CBD and How Can It Help with Migraines?
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-psychoactive compound found in hemp that interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS) and acts like a signaling system regulator for a broad spectrum of the human body’s processes. It can help to reduce inflammation, and support overall balance and wellness. For migraine sufferers, CBD may:
- Reduce inflammation in the brain
- Ease muscle tension and stress
- Reduce sensitivity to light, noise, and stress
- Help regulate pain signals
- Promote relaxation and better sleep
While research is still emerging, anecdotal evidence and some studies suggest that CBD might be a natural, non-addictive alternative to migraine medications with fewer side effects of many pharmaceutical medications and psychoactive cannabinoids in Delta-9 THC. Board-certified Neurologist, Dr. Eric Barton, treats patients who suffer from migraines, and conducted a study with over 2,000 patients. He concludes that in the right patients CBD may offer relief where other therapies have failed. Dr Barton also says to choose a full spectrum or “whole plant” product—they’re most likely to provide the “entourage effect.” And make sure it’s been tested for content and quality by an independent laboratory. Researchers studied 100 CBD products and found that 70% were inaccurately labeled, did not contain the stated amount of CBD, and 21% had levels of THC that were above legal limits.
Why People Are Turning to CBD for Migraine Relief
Many migraine sufferers are switching to CBD because:
- It’s plant-based and natural
- It has no psychoactive effects
- It may reduce reliance on over-the-counter pain meds and their side effects
- It’s available in various formats to suit your lifestyle
- CBD side effects are typically minimal compared to prescription drugs
