What effect does CBD oil have on Thyroid hormones?
Asked 3 years ago
I have Hypothyroidism and have read that CBD might help? Can CBD oil help for hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism? Also, are there interactions between CBD oil and thyroid medications?

Studies show that CBD oil and thyroid medications are metabolised by the same enzymes in the liver, and so taking there could be interactions between the two that results in an increased experience of side effects, despite the anecdotal evidence.
However, there are many that claim CBD oil is an effective treatment that helps for hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism due to its anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties.

Yes, CBD might help, but you have to approach it with caution. Experts claim CBD have anti-inflammatory properties which may help reduce the inflammation that triggers hypothyroidism. There is still a lot of research required on this subject. Taking CBD and some medications may cause interactions, so you should see a doctor before taking CBD with other drugs.
