CBD for Lupus: Managing Autoimmune Flare-Ups
Lupus causes painful autoimmune flare-ups throughout the body. Discover how CBD's anti-inflammatory properties can provide natural relief.
Published: December 20, 2023
📋 Overview: Lupus
Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease that can damage any part of the body including joints, organs, and the skin. The immune system attacks the body's healthy cells, causing flare-ups with inflammation and damage.
🌿 How CBD & Cannabis Can Help
The anti-inflammatory properties of cannabis help ease the pain of lupus flare-ups. The Lupus Foundation of America supports further scientific research on the use of medical marijuana for treating the symptoms of lupus.
💊 Recommended Treatment
When lupus causes flare-ups in internal organs, cannabis should be taken sublingually or transdermally. For skin flare-ups, apply topical cannabis to the affected area. For joint flare-ups, topical or transdermal application works well.
