Your Belly’s New Bestie?

At one time or another, everyone has experienced the kind of tummy troubles—gas, bloating, diarrhea, constipation—that make you want to retreat into the bathroom and not emerge until they’ve passed. For some, serious conditions like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) make that rush to the toilet an unpleasant fact of daily life. The next frontier in relief for a range of bowel problems may come from a surprising source: hemp. Research is showing that cannabidiol (CBD), which is widely available in hemp-derived CBD oil, has numerous benefits for your gastrointestinal tract that may be helpful not only for maintaining optimum gut health, but also for managing severe bowel disorders.
