Diabetes is a condition that impairs the body’s ability to process blood glucose or “sugar”. Without careful, ongoing management, it can lead to a build-up of blood sugar, which increases the risk of dangerous complications like heart disease and stroke.
Managing the condition is specific to each of the various types. Not all forms stem from a person being overweight or leading an inactive lifestyle. In fact, some present from childhood or even occur while women are pregnant.
CBD’s potential to treat diabetes-related health problems includes reducing inflammation and improving blood glucose control. Research has shown its promise in reducing insulin resistance and moderating blood sugars.

IMPORTANT NOTE
Always speak to your doctor when considering cannabis as a treatment aid. Take great care to safely store products and not expose children or pets unintentionally.
THC products are psychoactive, causing one to become “high”. These are to be used with special caution in children, pets and persons prone to anxiety or stress. Depending on the unique situation, it may be appropriate to substitute THC with non-psychoactive THCA. CBN and 1:1 oils may also cause mild psychoactive effects.
However, if products are used correctly, it may be possible to avoid the psychoactive effect entirely. Should you feel uncomfortable or have any questions at any time, our trained team of staff are on standby to attend to your concerns.
