How Phytocannabinoids Like CBD Can Benefit Older Pets?

As pets age, they are exposed to a high level of anxiety and become more prone to disease conditions due to the weakening of the immune system. The older the pets get, the more likely they are to fall sick and suffer from one form of allergy or the other. When these situations occur, the need for immune boosters and allergy treatments such as Bailey's CBD Oil For Dogs come into play. Pet allergy and the use of CBD oils in the formulation of Dog allergy treatments have been extensively discussed in our article “How Can CBD Help Pets With Allergies". In this article, however, we shall focus on the use of CBD to reduce the level of anxiety and other health-related challenges associated with ageing pets such as sarcoptic mange. For pets with separation anxiety, we cover this topic heavily in our article "Using Bailey's CBD For Your Dog's Separation Anxiety".

Hemp and marijuana contain a high level of active plant ingredients known as cannabinoids. A cannabinoid is a group or active phytochemicals which are made up of four different components known as the cannabidiol (CBD), delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), Cannabinol (CBN) and Cannabigerol (CBG) with the most active compounds being CBD and THC. These active compounds interact with receptors in the body to boost the immune system, reduce the level of anxiety experienced in the brain and also serve as an antimicrobial agent against any form of microbial disease condition present in the body of the ageing pet. The use of hemp products such as Bailey's CBD Oil For Dogs and other types of holistic pet products have been used by pet owners to help their ageing pets live a healthier and normal life.

Although the use of CBD oil in the treatment of anxiety and inflammation found in ageing pets is still in the early stages of research, there is a high level of confidence that the use of hemp products such as Bailey's CBD Oil For Dogs can be advantageous in the reduction of ageing induced anxiety and inflammation experienced due to a weakened immune system. Data gathered from many pet owners has revealed that the successful administration of Phytocannabinoids and other forms of pet supplements was able to reduce the level of chronic pains experienced by their pets. They are also of the view that these hemp-based products improve their pet’s comfort and mobility when used individually or in combination with other medications. The administration of these hemp-based treatments on ageing pets suffering from chronic, end-stage diseases such as cancer, heart and kidney failure has been reported by several other pet owners which reveal that Phytocannabinoids and other forms of pet supplements can be beneficial for your ageing pets.

At the time of writing this article, the major challenge of using CBD oil and other hemp-based products as an agent of prophylaxis in animals is deeply rooted in the dosage ingested. Leading veterinarians in the field recommend the daily starting dose of Phytocannabinoids for pets to be 1 mg/ml per 10 lbs of body weight twice daily. Since Bailey's CBD products are nonpsychoactive, you never have to worry about giving your pet too much, as what their body's don't absorb is passed through as waste in their urine.
