How CBD Can Help With Cannabis Addiction?
A new study reports that CBD can balance out some of the adverse effects of regular THC use...
The new study, published in The Lancet Psychiatry journal, is the first to report such a finding.
The authors of the study said these findings are important in light of major policy changes surrounding the production and sale of cannabis products, as well as increases in the number of people entering treatment for cannabis use disorders and the absence of recommended treatments for this.
Dr Tom Freeman, the study's lead author and Director of the Addiction and Mental Health Group at the University of Bath, UK, said: "Our study provides the first causal evidence to support cannabidiol, or CBD, as a treatment for cannabis use disorders.
βThis is encouraging, as there are currently no drug treatments for cannabis addiction.
βCBD products are widely available in many countries but we would not advise people to self-medicate with these products. People with concerns about their cannabis use should always speak to a healthcare professional in the first instance."
Cannabis addiction affects an estimated 22 million people worldwide, but there are currently no medications recommended for the treatment of cannabis use disorders.
Previous studies have suggested taking CBD products could help to reduce withdrawal symptoms in people who are actively trying to quit cannabis use.
The researchers concluded additional research is needed to investigate the extent to which their findings translate to different durations of treatment.
Studies are also needed to investigate whether CBD directly reduces cannabis use or if it reduces other mental health symptoms which may indirectly affect cannabis use.

CBD helps stimulate Neurogenesis.
The hippocampus plays a critical role in a variety of brain functions. Most notably the hippocampus is involved with the regulation of the formation of memories, and cognitive functioning, but recently, has also been found to be involved with emotional regulation.
Researchers found that the brain scans of patients suffering from mood disorders such as anxiety and depression often present with smaller hippocampi, and that a potential treatment of clinical mood disorders may be to target neurogenesis (the production of new neural cells) in the hippocampus. In addition, there is also evidence that impaired neural plasticity may play a role in suicidal behaviour.
Interestingly, a recent animal study showed that the repeated administration of CBD my do just that - help the regeneration of neural cells by neural stem cells in the hippocampi of mice. Moreover, CBD, just like SSRIβs also promote neurogenesis, pointing to the possibility that both of these substances function in a similar way, while also explaining why CBD is effective for anxiety and a calm mind.
