How does CBD help Seniors?

Senior at what age?

Depending on the context, the age at which we are considered seniors differs. On a medical level, seniors are 70 years and older. According to the French government, retirement age marks the arrival of seniors in the world. According to INSEE, you are considered seniors from the age of 65. In marketing, we talk about those aged 50 and over, because their lifestyles and consumer needs are changing. In the business world, it is 45 years, so imagine in sports!

We can also not consider ourselves seniors at 80, that's the spirit of eternal youth! But what interests us here is to approach the subject on a physiological level.

Quality of life of seniors

For several decades, the profile of seniors has continued to evolve. Indeed, scientific progress has allowed us to increase our life expectancy significantly. Thus, our life expectancy in good health has been greatly increased!

Seniors are now aware of the importance of practicing physical and intellectual activities on a regular basis, but also of having rich social relationships. More and more seniors are signing up for sports or various physical activity classes, but also for courses or training in order to continue learning to preserve their intellectual capacities. It should also be noted that a large majority of association volunteers are seniors.

To take advantage of all these possibilities, a balanced diet is of course one of the essentials. The consumption of organic foods continues to increase on the market, and seniors play a major role in this. However, the body changes over the years: for women, menopause plays a major role. In men, we speak of andropause. On average, these natural biological phenomena occur around the age of fifty and are often followed by sleep disorders, pain, or anxiety that appears or increases.

CBD, a support for quality of life

According to several studies, the CBD molecule would play several roles in our physiological and psychiatric functions. This molecule activates sensors naturally present in the human body. Good results have been observed on patients suffering from sleep disorders, anxiety, depression, pain related to rheumatism, cancer, multiple sclerosis, or even chronic pain such as fibromyalgia.

Other studies are underway and CBD surely still has many assets to reveal to us and the scientific community is increasingly relying on this small molecule.

CBD for Seniors

As a seller of CBD products, we observe a significant number of seniors among our customers, who regularly use our products and feel the benefits on a daily basis. Why not you?

You can read many articles in the press and magazines aimed at seniors! In addition, programs that concern CBD are regularly scheduled on the radio waves, so if you are curious, do not hesitate to look in the podcasts of your favorite radio stations.

CBD products are classified as food supplements, without any danger to your health. But be careful, CBD can in no way replace a therapeutic treatment. If you are taking medication or undergoing treatment, we advise you to be careful and to discuss it with your doctor (in fact, interactions have been observed with antiepileptic and anticoagulant drugs).

The products sold by Cali Weed are mostly organic, natural, GMO-free and made in France. They can be a significant support in terms of quality of life.

Finally, let us remember that the WHO (World Health Organization) does not consider CBD as a drug and that the World Anti-Doping Agency even authorizes its consumption by professional athletes. Indeed, CBD does not generate any habituation problems (no addiction) and has no "high" effect.
