6. Possible Benefits To Heart Health
Recent research into CBD and heart health has linked CBD with several benefits for the heart and circulatory system, including the ability to lower high blood pressure.
One recent study treated nine healthy men with one dose of 600 mg of CBD and found it reduced resting blood pressure, compared to those receiving the placebo.
Researchers have suggested that the stress- and anxiety-reducing properties of CBD are responsible for its ability to help lower blood pressure.
For example, one study found that treatment with CBD reduced oxidative stress and prevented heart damage in diabetic mice with heart disease.
"Though more human studies are needed, CBD may benefit heart health in several ways, including by reducing blood pressure and preventing heart damage."
