Potential Benefits of Cannabis for Arthritis

Pain Relief: CBD oil stimulates the reuptake of adenosine, boosting its levels in the brain which in turn inhibits pain sensations. By binding to the TRV1 receptor, CBD oil also blocks pain signals from reaching the brain.
Reducing Inflammation: In addition to being anti-inflammatory, CBD oil acts as an antioxidant, decreasing oxidative stress and systematic inflammation in the body. This proves to be particularly helpful in cases of inflammatory arthritis such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis.
Nerve Protectant: CBD oil also has neuroprotective properties and helps in reducing joint neuropathy (the progressive degeneration of a weight-bearing joint) thus helping with degenerative arthritis
