Before we can discuss anything related to the actual possible non-effects or effects of the CBD and Scleroderma effectively, we must first find out more about Scleroderma.
So what triggers Scleroderma would be our first question and that answer would be an accumulation and the excess overproduction in the body’s tissue’ collagen caused mot likely but not solely by:
Environmental Triggers
Genetics
Problems in the Immune system
Exactly how serious is Scleroderma is exactly like any other chronic disease, from being life-threatening, to being just and pain that is constant to just a plain old day to day irritation that you have to live with for every day of your life, what’s left of it.
All this is affected by exactly which part of the body and how badly it is affected and varies from patient to patient
It can also affect the brain in the following manners:
1: Cerebral problems due to Systematic Scleroderma.
2: Cognitive impairment due to circulation problems caused by neuropsychiatric problems
3: Systemic Sclerosis in Demyelinating syndrome via NMO ( NEUROMYELITIS OPTICA)
The very end-stage of Scleroderma affects mainly the lungs through what is defined as pulmonary hypertension with compulsory ambulatory iloprost and or pulmonary fibrosis with continuous oxygen and all this leads to a Scleroderma related death especially those with an abnormal pulmonary function at baseline that is always high risk.
So how and can CBD oil help with this Scleroderma.
Even though CBD rich cannabis oils are still not officially recognized or even freely available for most patients medical researchers have never actually gone into the possibilities of treating Scleroderma with CBD.
Though unofficial preclinical investigations using cannabidiol on what is known as molecular isolates suggests it may be helpful for some reason, but yet has to be clinically proven.
SUCH AS:
CBD CAN INHIBIT THE PRODUCTION DOWN OF CBD 1 — which acts as a switch that dials down the production of collagen and impedes the overproduction which is the main cause of Scleroderma.
CBD and Scleroderma can at times signal the CBD 2 receptors that is an anti-inflammatory which will boost antifibrogenic activity which Scleroderma patients are very short of and needs. (the sore point here is that scientists and researchers still haven’t figured out how to do this)
For some reason CBD can do the above simultaneously i.e.: dialing down that needs dialing down and amplifying that that needs to be separated in both CBD 1 and CDB 2 which in turn is a total benefit for Scleroderma patients.
All this is still in infant stages and needs lots more research and FDA backing to get where we need it to be, if ever.
