Hemp VS Nicotine Cigarettes

Cigarettes have plagued our perception of smoking with diseases, cancer, and addiction. With years of associating smoking cigarettes and chemicals, we didn’t realize that smoking an herb or plant has medicinal and therapeutic value to our bodies and minds. Well, now with countless stories of the health benefits of CBD and how it's helped with so many ailments, it's good

I used to be an avid cigarette smoker well over 15 years of my life. Not the healthiest choice in so many levels and for many of those years I wanted to quit the habit. I've realized how nicotine has negatively impacted my health. Smoking daily, first thing in the morning, at lunch, dinner and before going to bed. Smoking on my breaks at work and spraying myself with cologne just to smell presentable to customers. Cigarettes took over my life. as for my health, it literally lowered my immune system and was prone to more frequents colds and respiration issues. I feel it also took a toll on my fitness and clarity of thought.

I still remember how many times I wanted to quit smoking. I tried nicotine patches...fail. I tried cold turkey...fail. I had enough of these these failed tactics. I wanted to make a change for my health.

For many tobacco smokers and myself included, nicotine cravings tend to take control of their daily lives and cause more frequent instances of anxiety and stress, when that craving isn’t satisfied.

Smoking the hemp flower may help reduce that stress and satisfy that craving for nicotine. Hemp offers many health benefits, provided you are using the right product and it's grown in organically without the use of pesticides.

How does CBD impact my Health?

By introducing Cannabidiol (CBD) and other cannabinoids into our body to stimulant receptors, we get reacquainted with our natural state of balance. Cannabinoids are part of a greater whole that helps your body heal itself. Think of cannabinoids as activation switches that amplify your own body's healing responses within. These cannabinoids (CBD, THC, CBG, CBN and more) found in the cannabis/hemp plant work synergistically with each other and help promote a higher state of healing.

Hemp contains a high percentage of CBD (Cannabidiol) and other cannabinoids, that have a positive effect on the Endocannabinoid System (ECS)

Studies have shown that Hemp acts as a bronchodilator opening the airway passages and aids in respiratory health. While helping out with any inflammation in the lungs.

Smoking Hemp is one of the fastest delivery systems to get CBD other cannabinoids into your circulatory system. Smoking Hemp allows your body to take a break from a number of chemicals found in cigarettes and start the cleansing process. Another great thing to add about smoking Hemp is the it helps with any Nicotine or Chemical withdrawal you may be experiencing. The truth of the matter is, humans have been inhaling herbs for their health benefits for centuries. It is time to rediscover this simple pleasure and begin our connection to Mother Earth and use the natural resources available in this planet to help heal ourselves and others.

In conclusion, smoking Hemp is not habit-forming or addictive. Hemp has no known side-effect that negatively harm your health. Like any natural medicine its best used with the intention of healing and not overusing.
