Dispelling the Myths: The Truth About CBD and CBDa for Anxiety and Inflammation

guest contributor on January 4, 2023

Article written by Jan Schwartz

CBD and CBDa are increasingly being used as natural remedies for a variety of health concerns, including anxiety and inflammation. However, there are still many misconceptions surrounding these substances, and understanding the truth about them can help consumers make informed decisions about their use.

One of the most common misconceptions is that CBD and CBDa are only used to relieve anxiety or stress. While these substances may have some anti-anxiety effects, they are also believed to have anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce inflammation in the brain. This is particularly important for those who may be experiencing anxiety due to environmental factors. 

“The root of the cause of anxiety is inflammation in the brain,” says Inesa Ponomariovaite, founder of Nesas Hemp. “Inflammation in the brain develops over the years by not taking care of the body directly. Main inflammation causes are artificial sugars, heavy metals, parasites, mold, yeast overgrowth, environmental toxins, and many other mycotoxins.” In other words, reducing inflammation may be key to addressing the underlying causes of anxiety and other mental health concerns.

Another misconception is that dosing with CBD and CBDa is a one-size-fits-all approach. The suggested dose may not work for everyone, and it’s important for individuals to experiment with different dosages to find what works best for them. “We have a suggested dose, and we know for a fact that the product is effective,” says Ponomariovaite. “Since the product is very natural and pure and is not activated, each person connects with this plant in a different way and activates the product. That means the suggested dose might not work for everybody, so we highly recommend people to increase the dose if they don’t seem to have any results.”

It’s also important to be aware of the testing process behind CBD products, as the industry is not regulated and there are no guidelines for safety and quality. This means that consumers need to be vigilant about what is in their products and make sure to read lab results carefully to ensure that they are getting a high-quality, safe product. To properly read a CBD label, consumers should look for a batch number that is attached to lab results and is certified as organic. When it comes to CBDa products, it’s important to look for products that were grown as naturally as possible and were extracted using safe, natural processes.

Nesas is a brand that prides itself on its commitment to growing its plants in the most organic way possible, using only handcrafting techniques and avoiding the use of high pressures or temperatures to dry the plants. As a result, Nesas claims to have some of the highest quality products on the market, with lab results to back up their claims. “We grow our plants with the safest and cleanest soil,” says the company. “We do only handcrafting. We don’t use any pressures or high temperatures to dry the plants. We keep our plants alive during all the steps. We have a very safe technology for the plant and human to extract very gently so we don’t disturb the structure of the plant and medicinal portfolio. Our plants are grown in the most organic way you can possibly grow these days. As a result, we have lab results to prove on each bottle to be the highest quality product on the market.”

The Best Digital Camcorder Buying Tips

guest contributor on June 2, 2018

The pace of change in the video recording industry is so fast that buying a decent camcorder can be challenging. There are so many models and features in modern digital camcorders that customers are often left confused on which model is ideal for them and what features are important and what isn’t.

 

This article will help you to understand all that you need to know about camcorders and what model suits your best for you personal and professional requirements. We will also discuss the technical jargons when buying a camcorder. But before we delve in – let me remind you all the opinions discussed here are my own and this buying guide only focuses on camcorders that are highly rated by Techwhippet.

Let’s get started:

 

Memory Cards

Most camcorders today use flash memory as its storage format. These camcorders record directly memory SDHC flash memory cards. Aside from external memory cards, there are dual flash camcorders with built-in flash memory. These camcorders can record video to its internal drive. Flash memory is the primary format of storage because it doesn’t have any moving parts and uses less power resulting in longer battery life for your camcorder or digital camera.

 

4K Ultra HD Camcorders

The camcorder industry is rapidly changing. At first, it was Standard Definition (SD). Then the consumers were given the taste of Full HD camcorders. Now, it is 4K camcorders. 4K camcorders have four times the resolution of normal Full HD camcorders.  Cinemas project movies at 4K resolution, so if you’re recording videos at 4K, then in a sense, you’re a movie theater in your hands. TV manufacturers are also transitioning to 4K, so if you want to make your videos future proof, there isn’t any reason why you shouldn’t invest in a 4K camcorder.

 

Video Quality

Most camcorders can shoot decent videos in bright sunlight or in places with plenty of light. It is in low light conditions where most camcorders, as well as digital cameras, struggle. However, camcorders with larger video sensors tend to outperform than camcorders with smaller ones in low light conditions. The larger the image sensor is, the more light the camcorder can capture, which results in more detailed videos. But, camcorders with larger sensors are expensive. So, if video quality, colors, and details are important to you, always buy a camcorder with a larger sensor. A camcorder with a larger sensor will always have better and improved low light performance than camcorders with smaller sensors. Camcorders with larger sensors also provide better depth of field and dynamic range. The largest image sensors you can find on consumer camcorders today are 1-inch.

 

Professional Video Quality

If you don’t want to compromise on your video quality, then you should choose a professional quality video camera.  Professional video camcorders are much larger than consumer camcorders. It’s because the video sensors and the lenses are bigger. This helps as larger sensors will provide higher quality videos and the large lenses offer improved low light performance and light gathering. These camcorders also come with interchangeable lenses, wireless or separate microphones, and many other options, which aren’t available on typical cameras/camcorders.

 

Image Stabilization (IS)

Image stabilization is an extremely useful technology that reduces the blurriness in the video which you can get in low light conditions, riding in a vehicle, walking, or using a zoom lens.  As most people record using handheld camcorders, this is a valuable feature to have. Image stabilization also helps improve video quality when using the zoom lens to its full magnification. Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) is considered to be better than Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS).  Expensive, high-end camcorders have better image stabilization than cheaper camcorders.

 

Optical Zoom Vs Digital Zoom

Digital zoom is inferior to optical zoom. Digital zoom is the electronic representation of optical zoom. With digital zoom, you can lose resolution when cropping the image. You do not lose resolution with optical zoom. So, when purchasing a camcorder, always consider optical zoom.  The top-rated camcorders have 10x optical zoom which works great for most purposes.

 

Built-in Wi-Fi

Most camcorders have built-in Wi-Fi which allows you to transfer your pictures and videos from your camcorder to your computer, TV, tablet, or smartphone wirelessly. In addition, you can also connect your camcorder to the internet through Wi-Fi and upload your photos and videos to Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and other social media sites.

 

Electronic Viewfinder (EVF)

Viewfinders were common on camcorders before, but these days it is rare to find one in most consumer camcorders unless you get a professional model. The biggest benefit of viewfinders is that you can see your subject while recording outdoors in the bright sun as it is difficult to see the LCD as it is washed out in those light conditions.

Microphone

Most camcorders have built-in microphones and record in stereo sound. If you aren’t satisfied with the sound quality of your camcorder, you can buy higher quality microphones.

Night Vision

High-end camcorders have the ability to video in dark conditions using infrared light. Various models from Canon and Sony provide you with this feature.

LCD Size and resolution

The LCD screen in digital cameras/camcorders is where you can view the menus as well as compose your videos. Most camcorders have touchscreen LCDs which is more easy and intuitive than manual buttons. The larger the LCD screen and resolution, the better.

Built-in Video Flash/Light

Many camcorders have a built-in flash for taking still pictures and video light for recording videos in low light conditions. There is also an option to attach external flash units and lights in most camcorders as accessories.

Manual Focus

Most people rely on their camcorder automatic focusing during recording. However, there may be situations where you may need to manually focus the camcorder such as low light, macro, indoor shots, or recording through the glass. All professional camcorders have manual focus capabilities.

Video Resolution

Camcorders can record in 1080p, 720p, 60p and 120p resolutions. 1080p is the currently the highest quality you can record. Remember, the resolution isn’t everything. You also need to keep in mind the frame rate of the video. Normal video is recorded at 30fps. FPS stands for frames per second. Movies are shot at 24fps (24p). Some camcorders can record at 60fps, which make the videos extremely smooth and the footage can be used for slow motion.  With the adoption of 4K Ultra HD, some camcorders can shoot 4K videos as a high as 60p.
