What Are The Neurogenic Effects of CBD? cbdinsiders.com/what-are-the-neurogenic-effects-of-cbd/

Neurogenic, is defined as “caused by, controlled by, or arising in the nervous system.” For example, neurogenic pain is pain that originates in the nerves, as opposed to muscle pain, bone pain, etc. Neuropathy is the condition where the nerves have sustained enough damage that there is noticeable numbness, pain or tingling. Neurodegenerative diseases represent, nowadays, one of the main causes of death in industrialized countries. It is characterized by a loss of neurons in particular regions of the nervous system. It is believed that this nerve cell loss underlies the subsequent decline in cognitive and motor function that patients experience in these diseases. Many neurodegenerative diseases – including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and Huntington’s – occur as a result of neurodegenerative processes. Such diseases are incurable, resulting in progressive degeneration and/or death of neuron cells. Physical symptoms of neurological problems may include the following: Partial or complete paralysis Muscle weakness Partial or complete loss of sensation 1/3


Seizures Difficulty reading and writing Poor cognitive abilities Unexplained pain Decreased alertness A study as early as 2003 concluded that cannabis medicinal extracts can improve neurogenic symptoms unresponsive to standard treatments. Patients recorded significant pain relief associated with the CBD along with impaired bladder control, muscle spasms and spasticity which were improved by CME in some patients with these symptoms. CBD, in some studies has also been shown to act as an anti-inflammatory, anticonvulsant, anti-oxidant, anti-emetic, anxiolytic and antipsychotic agent, and is therefore a potential medicine for the treatment of neuroinflammation, epilepsy, oxidative injury, vomiting and nausea, anxiety and schizophrenia, respectively.
