I have just ordered CBD oil? I wonder if anyone can help me how it affects the body?
How does CBD affect the body?

Marijuana and CBD work by acting on the body’s endocannabinoid system. This system’s main job is to maintain homeostasis and help the body adapt to outside stressors.
There are two main types of cannabinoids—endo (produced naturally within the body) and phyto (produced from a plant). CBD is one type of phytocannabinoid. Phytocannabinoids mimic endocannabinoids, so they can act like a supplement, giving you a boost beyond what your body can produce.
Receptors for cannabinoids are found in the digestive, reproductive, nervous, and immune systems. Because cannabinoids interact with almost every system in our bodies, they’re often touted as a cure-all. While they’re not truly able to heal everything, they do regulate neurotransmitter function, inflammation, mitochondrial function, and metabolism.

CBD is safe for almost everyone, according to a recent report from the World Health Organization but check with your doctor before starting any CBD product, especially if you are pregnant or on any medications. Research has shown several CBD oil benefits, ranging from alleviating social anxiety to improving rheumatoid arthritis.
If you or member of your family or a friend are suffering from fibromyalgia, arthritis other conditions (you can find a longer list of conditions in this forum) and have little or no progress with a traditional medication, I’d suggest trying full spectrum organic CBD oil

Hi, Leah. CBD products don't contain THC, which is the chemical that gives you the high feeling. You can take cannabidiol safely as it's natural and does not cause any psychoactive effects. In fact, this is the reason why many people uses CBD — to ease their stress and make them feel relaxed — without getting a buzz from cannabis products.
I'd add that CBD is also helping to re-balance the organism in the way that reduces chronic pain, anxiety and other conditions while helping with sleep and calmness. I also noticed that it works really well for most of the people while very few do not get any impact at all. I also noticed "dry mouth" effect when taking good quality full spectrum CBD oil which is considered a side effect but I do not see it as negative in it, it just helps me to find a good product
