WHAT IS CBM?

Updated: May 9, 2023




CBM, or cannabimimetics, is a non-psychoactive compound found in plants other than the cannabis plant that has the same medicinal attributes as CBD found in the cannabis plant. CBM has gained popularity for its numerous health benefits in humans. However, CBM is not just limited to human use. It can also be used to promote the health and wellbeing of our furry companions, dogs and cats. In this blog post, we will discuss some of the benefits of CBM for dogs and cats.


1.Reduces Anxiety and Stress



Dogs and cats can suffer from anxiety and stress just like humans. CBM has been shown to have anti-anxiety and calming effects, which can help reduce stress and anxiety in pets. A study published in the journal Neuropharmacology found that CBM reduced anxiety in rats. Similarly, a study published in the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association found that CBM reduced anxiety in dogs with noise-induced phobia.


2.Alleviates Pain and Inflammation

CBM has also been shown to have pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory effects. This can be beneficial for pets suffering from chronic pain, arthritis, and other inflammatory conditions. A

study published in the European Journal of Pain found that CBM reduced pain and inflammation in rats with arthritis. Similarly, a study published in the Journal of the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association found that CBM reduced pain and improved mobility in dogs with osteoarthritis.


3. Improves Appetite and Digestion

CBM has been shown to have a positive effect on the digestive system. It can help stimulate appetite and regulate digestion, which can be beneficial for pets with digestive issues or who are experiencing a loss of appetite. A study published in the Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics found that CBM increased food intake and body weight in rats.


4. Reduces Seizures and Epilepsy


CBM has also been shown to have anti-seizure properties, which can be beneficial for pets suffering from epilepsy or other seizure disorders. A study published in the journal Epilepsy & Behavior found that CBM reduced seizure activity in dogs with epilepsy.


In conclusion, CBM can be a beneficial supplement for promoting the health and wellbeing of dogs and cats. However, it is important to consult with a veterinarian before administering CBM to your pet, as dosage and potential side effects can vary depending on the individual pet.
