All of these studies show promise and require further scientific confirmation, however the question becomes how to best utilize CBD to benefit the lungs and respiratory process.

ACT™  utilizes only pure 100% organic CBD isolate either alone or in a mixture with pharmaceutical grade salt.  It is a “cold process” with no by-products. Halotherapy or dry salt therapy has been utilized for decades as an anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial method of soothing irritated bronchial passages. It is possible that when combined with isolate CBD a dual approach may be achieved as the respiratory system is calmed by the effects of the CBD through its effects on the Endocannabinoid System.

The Endocannabinoid system or ECS influences neuronal synaptic communication, and effects biological functions including eating, anxiety, learning and memory, reproduction, metabolism, growth and development- via an array of actions throughout the nervous system.

Various methods can activate this complex system including, a healthy diet containing Omega-3, less alcohol and using CBD products. Many experts believe that CBD interacts with the ECS by preventing endocannabinoids from being broken down. This allows them to have more of an effect on the body.

When the average person thinks about the respiratory system they typically focus on the lungs as the primary activator.  In reality, the lungs are the machinery of breathing.  While obstructions such as inflammation and bacteria may build up in the respiratory channels breathing is a fundamental rhythm of brain function.

Current methods of introducing CBD into the nose and throat are inefficient, may be harmful and either dilute or otherwise adulterate and/or contaminate the CBD. Some of these methods include:

• Vaping or Smoking -Utilizes oils and other additives that can irritate the lungs
• Vaporizer – Dilutes CBD with water and further dilution when turned to vapor
• CBD sprays – Dilutes when combined with oil. Oil spray may irritate the lungs.

Typically,  CBD has poor bio-availability as it is fat soluble, which can make it a challenge for the body to absorb.  Evidence suggests that inhalation and sublingual delivery methods that bypass the digestive process, typically absorb better than oral methods.
