Nobody has time for an Arthritis flare up.
Youth comes but once in a lifetime. After years of repetitive tasks; one day, simple things like using our hands to open a lid or rolling out of bed to place two feet on the floor seem a little more strenuous than we once remembered. It is a fair reminder that father time waits for no one. One of the many causes of stiffness and friction in our bodies as we age is arthritis. Arthritis is a general term used to define conditions that cause joint pain, stiffness and swelling. An Arthritis flare up can show up in various ways; from painful flare ups in our overworked hands, to stifling pain in our knees, and in many other instances throughout the body.
According to the CDC, 1 in 4 Americans suffer from some form of Arthritis. This staggering number amounts to over 54 million people. With Arthritis soaring to the top of the list of disability claims in the United States, it has a direct impact on the ability of the average American’s ability to work to provide for themselves and the ones they love.
In recent years, many of those suffering from the side effects of arthritis have explored various options to alleviate the symptoms that accompany it. That exploration typically includes over the counter medication, doctor prescribed drugs, and the extreme intrusiveness of surgeries such as knee and hip replacements. Even with many options on the market, people still find the prospect of undesirable side effects to not be worth the risk of the potential relief.
CBD (cannabidiol) has proven anti-inflammatory components that many people have found to supersede all of the aforementioned options. A study from the European Journal of Pain examined the effectiveness of transdermal CBD for reduction in inflammation and pain on rats. The data from the study indicated that the topical application of CBD has therapeutic potential for relief of arthritic pain and inflammation without evidence of side effects. The same reduction of inflammation in lab rats has been seen as equitably comparable when applied to humans.
A principal product used to combat the symptoms of arthritis is The Hemp Source’s full spectrum infused pain salve. This 1,000 mg CBD topical is a super inflammation alleviant, as it targets pain and stiffness in many areas right below the skin. For more extreme cases; where the inflammation and pain are not directly found in transdermal but rather inaccessible areas, our full spectrum hemp tinctures allow for better penetration to those afflicted places.
As previously stated, options such as prescription drugs and surgery come with the possibility of unpredictable side effects that can be counterproductive in the quest for relief. See what everyone is raving about after trying the natural benefits of our full spectrum hemp products!
