The Mile High City is known for a whole list of things, with its high quality of life being at the top of the list. Denver, Colorado is one of the best cities in the world for so many reasons. From the low crime rates to mountain views to the culture of good health, the city is undoubtedly a point of pride for residents.

Also known as Wall Street West, Denver has long been a place for opportunity, which is one reason why it has always attracted people looking for a better life. Over the years, this led to the city becoming quite prosperous and as a result, home to many gorgeous public buildings, art galleries and other cultural centers.

Of course, another benefit of the city being so prosperous is a large number of sports of teams. In fact, it is the smallest metropolitan area to have franchises in all four major sports, which are the Rockies (MLB), Nuggets (NBA), Avalanche (NHL) and Broncos (NFL).

In addition, Denver is known as a city where the average person is enjoys life to the full. While there is plenty to do within the city, the surrounding areas are full of majestic landscapes that just begged to be explored! From mountain climbing, hiking, mountain biking and, of course, skiing in the winter, there is so much to keep Denverites busy.

But beneath all this activity, there is another activity that Denver’s people are known for: keeping themselves healthy. Whether it be via nutrition, exercise or supplementation, Denver is as healthy a city as there ever was. That is why it makes such perfect sense for CBD oil and other CBD products to be such a common sight here.

In this article, we will discuss the following questions: what is CBD, why has it become so popular and why so many people use CBD oil in Denver?

The Heathy People of Colorado Denver

As a general rule, an active city is a healthy city. For example, Denver has the lowest obesity rates of any major city in the United States. At just below 20%, almost half the national rate. What is even better, childhood obesity is also relatively low, meaning that things are looking good for the future!

Naturally, not everyone has great access to healthcare due to a variety of factors, such as economics. However, the city has gone to great lengths to reach out to less prosperous neighborhoods for vaccinations and other forms of treatment. Great care is also being made to help those in need who may be HIV positive or have other chronic conditions.

As they say, “Abs are made in the kitchen,” meaning that nutrition plays a large role in staying in shape, and the people of Denver have apparently got the message loud and clear. Restaurants here are known for creating healthy yet delicious meals that focus on fresh vegetables and good quality meats. After all, don’t forget that Chipotle is from here!

It is more than clear that Denverites put a lot of time and energy to stay healthy. That quest for health is probably one of the major reasons Denver has become such a hotspot for CBD.

CBD for Optimal Health

Cannabis products are no strangers here since Colorado was one of the first states to legalize recreational marijuana use in 2012. Cannabidiol (commonly called CBD) is a compound that makes up around 40% of the dry weight of all cannabis plants. It is essential to understand that while marijuana contains a large amount of CBD, CBD products are not considered marijuana products as they have little to no THC, the compound that gives you a high. As a result, CBD is legal in all 50 states, while THC is federally banned but allowed in a handful of states.

The reason it works so well is that your body naturally has what is called an endocannabinoid system. This system plays a large role in the overall balance of other parts of your body, such as your nervous and immune systems, by creating compounds that are remarkably similar to what is found in cannabis plants. As a result, both CBD and THC — as well as other compounds within cannabis — can substantially impact the human body.

Since it does not give the classic marijuana, CBD has been widely used and researched in recent years. It can apparently give many of the therapeutic benefits that cannabis is known for but with the side effects as it helps to create a balance throughout your body, helping it return to normal homeostasis.

While there are numerous benefits for any user, what sort of benefits of CBD would be especially attractive to Denver residents?

Z

Alleviate Mountain Sickness

If you have been to Denver or have just traveled to a similar place with high altitude, you may have found yourself taken out of commission for a day or two. While your body is acclimating, you may find yourself short of breath, dizzy and unable to get to sleep. If you have other conditions (like asthma), it can be even worse.

CBD gives you two forms of relief. First, its anti-inflammatory properties, breathing issues difficulties can be mitigated for asthma suffers. Second, CBD can help you get to sleep and improve the quality of that sleep.

Z

Recovery For an Active Lifestyle

While it is great to be active and always on the move, your body still needs a chance to recover to make sure you can get back at it the next day. When your body can’t recover, much of the gains you would have made in muscle mass or strength can be compromised as your body will not be able to build up muscle tissue or repair microtear.

A major way that CBD can play a role here is with the relaxation of the body and of the mind. Many times after physical activity, we may not be able to get to sleep or in a comfortable position to rest. CBD allows you to do both since resting hard is an integral part of playing hard.

Health Challenges in Denver

Even though Denver is far and away one of the healthiest cities in the country, it is not without its challenges. But it could also be said that many of Denver’s issues also affect the rest of the county to some extent.

One of the most devastating problems Denver is currently dealing with is the opioid epidemic. This is a multi-faceted issue that is both caused and exacerbated by multiple factors.

First of all, there are many people who have chronic pain that are unable to find relief from over the counter medications or lower-level prescription medication. As a result, they look to more powerful options, either legally or illegally. Since drugs such as oxycodone are incredibly addictive, using them in the long term can easily cause dependency.

If you find that you can’t find that medication that gives you the relief you need, consider CBD products as they work very differently from most pain medications without the same risk of addiction or nasty side effects.

Another issue involves the addiction itself. Most of us are addicted to something, even if it is just caffeine or sugar. Even though these are relatively minor addictions, think about how you feel without your morning coffee. Think of that with opiates, but on a large order of magnitude. This sort of addiction is almost impossible to break without some form of outside help.

While more research is needed, multiple studies have shown promise with CBD and addiction. A study at the University College of London suggested that CBD can help alleviate withdrawal symptoms, taking the edge off. However, it also showed that it can alter how the patient remembered the effects of the drug, playing a role in phycological addiction.

Another issue that can be related to opiate abuse is depression. Some figures estimate that about 14% of the city suffers from depression. It can affect anyone during any phase of a person’s life, but the effects can be felt in every part of the sufferer’s life.

Of course, depression is a deeply complex issue that even the experts do not understand completely, so we do not want to present CBD as a miracle cure, which it is not. However, promising studies are underway that show just how it can help with the symptoms of mild to moderate depression. Before attempting to use CBD for depression, be sure to consult with your doctor, especially if you are currently taking other medications.

How to Use CBD

Great! So, now you have a quick rundown of what CBD is and what it can do. But how can you actually use it?

The most basic form of CBD is CBD oil, which is essentially a mostly pure form of the extract mixed with a carrier. This can be taken as is or mixed with other products.

Other common forms of CBD include external products like CBD lotions, CBD creams, CBD roll-ons or CBD edibles (such as the common CBD gummies or pastries).

So, which is form is right for you? That depends on a few factors, like why you are taking it and what you feel most comfortable with.

For example, let’s say hiking all day and having sore muscles that you didn’t even know existed. We would recommend using an external product, such as a roll-on.

On the other hand, maybe you’re suffering from altitude sickness and can’t get a good night’s sleep. Then it would probably be best to use an internal product, such as gummies.

Common forms of CBD products:

CBD Oil

CBD Capsules

CBD Creams

CBD Edibles

CBD Lotions

CBD Oral Sprays

CBD Roll-Ons

CBD Salve

But what if you want to use CBD for multiple purposes and do not want to buy mulitple products, This would be a textbook reason to buy CBD oil itself. As previously mentioned, it can be combined with products you may already have or you can even cook with it!

Before using CBD, we have a few reminders for you. CBD affects everybody differently. So, if you find that you are not getting the results you want, you may need to change your dosage. If you find that you are getting little to no effect even while using the maximum dosage, just be patient. Many people find that they need to use CBD a few times before their body starts to react.

Also, be sure you understand how CBD affects you before operating any vehicles or heavy machinery.
