Your CBD launches oil targeting weight loss without side effects
04 Oct 2021 --- US-based retailer Your CBD has unveiled a cannabidiol (CBD) product targeted at weight loss. The innovation comes following two decades of global research.
The product, called Trim by Sunmed, is backed by a “first-of-its-kind” human clinical study, which showed the core component of the product tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) suppressed the natural appetite of participants, according to the retailer.
“We believe that Trim by Sunmed fills a major void that has existed in the marketplace, using natural weight loss remedies as opposed to harsh stimulants, allowing hemp to do the work,” states Marcus Quinn, founder of Your CBD.
The product is available as a tincture or soft gel capsule.Hemp over stimulants
Trim aims to utilize hemp as a natural alternative to aid weight loss, arguing that in contrast to other cannabis products that heighten cravings, the THC-V component targets receptors in the brain associated with cravings and lets the body know that it is satiated.
The retailer notes that using CBD oil allows individuals to escape adverse side effects caused by many traditional weight loss supplements such as rapid heart rate, jitters and headaches.
The study, which spanned over 13 weeks, found that Trim by Sunmed utilizes therapeutic naturally derived cannabinoids that antagonize the CB-1 receptor and suppress cravings, it adds.
A wide array of benefits
In addition to being a natural weight-loss alternative, Trim by Sunmed also boasts benefits such as improved sleep, reduced anxiety and pain relief, according to Your CBD.
“This natural approach to weight loss has many added benefits such as anti-inflammation, deeper and longer sleep, as well as a reduction in pain, depression and anxiety,” says Dr. Anthony Ferrari, chief science officer of Your CBD.
Easy to use
Trim can be consumed either through a tincture or a soft gel capsule and should be incorporated into daily routine, including a healthy diet and active lifestyle. It can also boost the effectiveness of exercise and nutrition, without any extreme adjustments, the retailer affirms.
The recommended serving is 50 mg per day over a 90-day introductory period. Within that time frame, clinical trials have shown up to 18 lbs in weight reduction and up to six inches in waistline reduction resulting from consistent use of Trim by Sunmed.
The product is sold at an introductory price of US$100 at Your CBD Store locations. Products are made using US-grown hemp.
Defining the era of CBD 
Clinical studies have shown that the product suppresses cravings and thus aids weight loss.
Consumers are turning more toward CBD products for natural solutions, particularly since the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) softened its stance in 2018, allowing progressive regulatory gains since the legalization of hemp and CBD derived from hemp.
Hemp contains cannabinoids, but no THC, meaning hemp does not give users the high associated with marijuana. CBD is another kind of cannabinoid that is present in both strains of Cannabis sativa. It has garnered a significant amount of attention in recent times and is thought to be responsible for many of cannabis’ therapeutic effects, including pain relief.
The turn to CBD is reflective of a mainstream appeal for plant-based indulgence which is driving expansion to more market categories and regions, according to Innova Market Insights research.
As a result, big companies are already courting CBD products that are expected to define this era, with one example being Royal DSM, which recently entered into a commercial partnership with US-based cannabinoid ingredients manufacturer Mile High Labs to develop “unique hemp-derived cannabinoid solutions.”
