51: INCREASES ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY

Protecting the body from bacteria is crucial to good health, as once they enter the body, they are attacked by the immune system, causing inflammation. Bacteria on the skin and mucous membranes can cause infections, and bacteria eaten in food can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and even damage to the lining of the gut. While proper cooking and hygiene, including hand washing and tooth brushing, can prevent most bacterial infections, many people slip up from time to time and get sick. Some reach for synthetic antibacterial products like counter sprays and hand gels but overuse of these products and of antibiotics has led to bacteria becoming resistant. A healthier way to prevent exposure to bacteria is by using natural products like CBD oil.

CBD oil contains terpenes and phytocannabinoids that powerfully fight off bacteria. A study published in the Journal of Natural Products found that, when CBD is used in conjunction with antibiotics, it increases their antibacterial activity. This suggests CBD oil may be a way to fight bacterial infections whether they are present in skin wounds or internal. Humulene and limonene are two terpenes in CBD oil that kill bacteria. Additionally, CBD, CBG, CBC, CBN, and THC, potent phytocannabinoids in full-spectrum CBD oil, have been found to be active against a strain of antibiotic resistant staph bacteria, called a MRSA infection. CBG and CBD in particular appear to have the most robust activity against MRSA. For the best results, take 10–25 milligrams of CBD oil daily to protect against exposure to bacteria, and increase to 25–50 milligrams of CBD oil if you have an active infection.
