What is Cannabidiol CBD?

Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the 400 cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant, known since ancient times for its numerous therapeutic uses. It helps treat and reduce the symptoms of various disorders and conditions including chronic pain, insomnia and neurodegenerative disorders without any addictive or psychoactive effects.

CBD (Cannabidiol) regulates basic functions of the body by maintaining its homeostasis. It thus strengthens the immune system while helping to balance its biological functions, giving well-being and balance. Hemp oil with CBD is extracted from hemp plants of the hemp variety Sativa L. Among the many compounds it contains, such as Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids and vitamin E, there is also CBD or cannabidiol: a non-psychoactive cannabinoid. Once extracted, the hemp oil is blended with other natural ingredients to make it taste pleasant for our little ones and grown-ups.

What does science say about hemp oil with CBD cannabidiol for pets?

Veterinarians have noticed the success of hemp oil with CBD in the medical field. A major study conducted by Gamble LJ, Boesh JM, Frye CW, et al.1 – although based on a small sample size – showed that hemp oil with CBD can help reduce pain levels in dogs with osteoarthritis.

“In conclusion, this product was shown to be bioavailable in the small number of dogs tested in the PK portion of the study and dogs with OA that received this high CBD industrial hemp extract (2 mg/kg CBD) were found to be more alert and active.

It appears that no treatment side effects were observed in either the dogs used in the PK study at 2 and 8 mg/kg, nor in the dogs treated with OA for a period of one month.” (ivi, p.7)

More and more studies have shown that hemp oil containing CBD can support dogs with osteoarthritis and epilepsy². It is interesting to note that hemp oil with CBD can also help relieve stress and anxiety, as it does with humans.

This effect was documented, among others, by Zieba et al. ³ in a study published in 2019.

Here are some possible benefits:

1. Stress relief

CBD can help reduce anxiety and stress in pets, especially for those experiencing separation anxiety, fear of loud noises (e.g. thunderstorms or fireworks) or stress associated with travel.

2. Pain Management

CBD has anti-inflammatory properties that can help relieve pain associated with arthritis, injuries or chronic conditions. It can be especially beneficial for older doggies with joint pain or mobility issues.

3. Seizure control

Some studies have shown that CBD can reduce the frequency and severity of seizures in dogs with epilepsy. This benefit is linked to CBD’s ability to interact with the endocannabinoid system, which plays a key role in neurological functions.

4. Improved appetite

CBD can help stimulate appetite in pets experiencing nausea or lack of interest in eating due to illness or drug side effects.

5. Treatment for skin conditions

The anti-inflammatory properties of CBD can also benefit pets with skin conditions such as dermatitis or allergies, reducing itching and promoting healthier skin.

6. Reduction of inflammation

CBD’s ability to reduce inflammation may help pets with chronic inflammatory conditions, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), by improving their overall comfort and digestion.

7. Promotes calm and relaxation

For pets that exhibit hyperactivity or nervous behaviour, CBD treats can promote a calming effect, helping them to feel more relaxed.

8. Possible anti-cancer properties

While research is still at an early stage, some studies suggest that CBD may have anti-cancer effects and could slow the growth of cancer cells. However, this should not replace traditional cancer treatments.

9. Improving the quality of sleep

Pets with insomnia or disturbed sleep patterns may benefit from the sedative effects of CBD, leading to more restful sleep.

10. Overall well-being

Regular use of CBD in appropriate doses can contribute to the overall well-being of pets, improving their mood, energy levels and general health.

Things to consider:

Dosage:

The correct dosage is essential. Too much CBD can cause lethargy or gastrointestinal disturbances.

Quality:

Make sure your CBD treats come from reputable sources and do not contain harmful additives or THC (which can be toxic to pets).

Veterinary advice:

Always consult your vet before introducing CBD into your pet’s diet, especially if they are taking other medications at the same time.

The 5 symptoms of chronic, inflammatory osteoarthritis

The signs of pain in dogs with chronic forms of arthritis are very different:

• Reluctance to move (jump, run, play)
• Limping their leg slightly or strongly
• Antalgic poses (taking an unnatural pose to relieve pain)
• Compulsive licking or chewing (in some cases to the point of chewing their fur)
• Sounds (crackling) from cracking or grinding of joints (typical of severe cases)

All these symptoms indicate intense anxiety and discomfort.

The 5 symptoms of acute, inflammatory osteoarthritis

A study involving more than 2,000 dogs shows how common this condition is: at least 15% suffered from osteoarthritis, with radiologically confirmed symptoms.

• Pain
• Swelling (due to increased production of synovial fluid)
• Increase of the local temperature
• Redness (not always visible due to the fur)
• Reduced functions

3 In the study, over 80% of dogs with osteoarthritis experienced a reduction in their pain. Such a reduction in pain leads to the dog being more comfortable and more active.

Does hemp oil and hemp treats (pet treats) with CBD help cats and dogs with arthritis?

Research shows that the active ingredients contained in CBD hemp oil bind the CB1 and CB2 receptors in the endocannabinoid systems (ECS) of animals. This oil can therefore support them in case of pain and inflammation and improve joint function.

Can animals have toxic effects from cannabis oil and cannabis treats?

No, hemp oil with CBD is extracted from the cultivation of the hemp variety Sativa L., and not from the recreational variety. Consequently, it has no toxic effects on animals.

How to administer cannabis oil or treats with CBD?

Using our handy plastic droppers⁵ with the dispenser, the product can be administered directly to our pet or mixed with their food or a Ypsilon “Calms” cannabis treat for our difficult friends.

How do we manage the dosage?

For CBD oil: from 3 to 20 drops per day (see table) or as prescribed by your veterinarian. For cannabis treats from 5 to 10 per day. If your pet is on medication or has a medical condition, consult your veterinarian before use.

In conclusion:

Ypsilon® “Calms” Pet Treats and Ypsilon® Cannabidiol CBD Cannabidiol Pet Oils can be a beneficial supplement for dogs and cats, addressing various physical and emotional problems. However, it is important to always approach their use with caution and proper guidance from your veterinarian.
