Can CBD help you to stop smoking?
What is CBD?
CBD is short for cannabidiol and is found in the Cannabis Sativa plant. It has been reported that it helps with relieving pain and reducing stress and anxiety. But the real question is, can it help you to stop smoking?
Researchers at University College London (UCL) performed a random placebo study to see the effect that it had on smoking. In the study, 12 smokers were given an inhaler of the drug, and 12 were given a placebo. The smokers were told to use their inhaler at any time that they felt the need to smoke. When they looked at the results over the course of the week, they saw that there was no change in cigarette consumption among the placebo group. But the smokers in the CBD group reduced their cigarette consumption by around 40 percent.
The researchers concluded: “These preliminary data, combined with the strong preclinical rationale for use of this compound, suggest cannabidiol to be a potential treatment for nicotine addiction that warrants further exploration.”
It is known that cigarette smokers want to smoke more when they are feeling stressed or get anxiety. CBD oil can help reduce anxiety and stress and is a much healthier option for people to relax. Anti-inflammatory and antiemetic properties of it help get rid of headaches and nausea. These symptoms are commonly reported as withdrawal symptoms from those who are trying to quit smoking.

How can I make sure I get the best quality product?
The answer is quite simple: Third-party lab testing. The cannabidiol market is extremely saturated and highly unregulated. Today, anyone can produce it, but this means that there are a lot of cheap products and these cheap products contain a lot of harmful ingredients.
The entire purpose of third-party or independent lab testing is to provide an unbiased analysis of CBD products. Usually, the manufacturer sends a sample of their products to a separate testing company. This company will run its own tests and provide the results, indicating the quality, purity, and potency of the sample.
