The silent all-rounder that can make a difference for people and animals!

After thirty years of working in naturopathic medicine, you learn to recognize one thing very clearly: the body wants to recover. Always. Sometimes it just needs that one little push to the right level. And sometimes, as a therapist, you're backed into a corner when conventional options have been exhausted, complaints pile up, or conditions become more complex than a single remedy can handle.

It is precisely at these moments that Full Spectrum CBDa oil proves time and again to be an incredible linchpin in recovery processes – a broad system supporter that does not combat one complaint, but helps the body remember how recovery works.

It has now become an indispensable part of Annette de Vogel's animal treatments. Not as a miracle cure, but as an intelligent plant extract that works simultaneously on multiple levels: physical, neurological, immunological, and emotional.

Why CBDa oil can make such a difference

What makes Full Spectrum CBDa so special is the way it interacts with the body itself. Every mammal—human and animal—has an endocannabinoid system (ECS) . This system plays a key role in maintaining balance (homeostasis) and influences, among other things:

• pain perception

• inflammatory reactions

• immune response

• digestion

• neurological functions

• mood and behavior

CBDa (the acidic, natural form of CBD) works through the CB1 and CB2 receptors , but also through other pathways, such as modulation of COX-2 (inflammatory pathways) and cell-protective mechanisms. What's unique is that CBDa doesn't force the system, but regulates and activates it where needed .

It’s as if you’re turning on the whole orchestra, instead of turning up the volume of just one instrument.

An integrated remedy for complex complaints

In practice, we rarely see "just one complaint." Animals present with combinations:

• pain and fear

• nausea and diarrhea

• inflammation and decreased appetite

• neurological damage and muscle tension

• physical complaints that affect behavior

And it is precisely there that CBDa oil shows its power.

👉 Digestion & nausea

In cases of severe nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea—situations where dehydration is a risk—we often see CBDa oil provide rapid relief. As nausea subsides, appetite returns , which is crucial for recovery. At the same time, CBDa supports intestinal function and creates space for the liver to more effectively eliminate waste products.

No aggressive side effects. No additional burden.

👉 Pain, inflammation and behavior

Is an animal in pain and reacting anxiously or aggressively? Then CBDa works on both levels simultaneously. It reduces pain signals, inhibits inflammation, and influences mood and stress responses. Behavior stemming from physical discomfort can therefore visibly improve. You might think that's logical, and that's true, because we work with herbal medicine and support the system without suppressing it—that's where the power lies.

👉 Neurological complaints

For epilepsy, spasms, hernias, and other neurological problems, CBDa not only has a relaxing effect but also a neuroprotective effect : it helps protect healthy nerve and brain cells and supports the nervous system as a whole. In the case of compression or damage, this means you're not just treating the symptoms but also creating recovery conditions.

👉 Mood, trauma and grief

We also see impressive changes on an emotional level. Dogs that become lethargic, withdraw, and sleep primarily after the death of a companion can be reactivated with the right CBDa oil. Variants like Mixta or Pets support the nervous system so that motivation, alertness, and zest for life return.

How does that work?
CBDa influences neurotransmitter systems involved in stress, reward, and emotional regulation. The body emerges from a "frozen state" and regains access to adaptive behavior.

One tool, multiple points of attack

A few practical examples:

• Nausea, pain, intestinal complaints?
  → CBDa works simultaneously on nausea, pain, inflammation and digestion.

• Pain with fear or aggression?
  → CBDa reduces pain and calms the nervous system.

• Hernia or nerve compression?
  → CBDa has an analgesic and neuroprotective effect.

And the list goes on, almost endlessly. In practice, it's hard to imagine a situation where CBDa doesn't contribute to recovery or support.

What Annette notices after 30 years of practical work

Annette has been working with CBD oil for over 15 years, but for about 10 years now, she's been using Full Spectrum CBDa oil from CBD Spain . And the difference is remarkable.

What she sees:

• Faster recovery

• Greater effect in complex or hopeless situations

• In older animals : relief from osteoarthritis and arthritis without the burdensome side effects of conventional pain relief

• Support for the liver and kidneys , instead of extra burden

• More vitality in old age , without overmedicalization

CBDa not only helps reduce symptoms, but can also slow down or halt progressive disease processes , and sometimes even improve overall health.

Collaboration with regular medication

Full Spectrum CBDa oil can be used alongside regular medication . In many cases, it's precisely this combination that makes the difference:

• pain is absorbed

• inflammation inhibited

• supports the immune system

• as you gradually work towards system recovery

This fits in seamlessly with Annette's vision on multidisciplinary work : calling upon the intelligent, naturally present immune system at multiple levels simultaneously.

CBDa oil has become a pillar in this.

Why full spectrum CBDa is the gold standard

Much scientific research still focuses on CBD isolates. This is understandable from a research perspective, but therapeutically, we see something different.

Full spectrum CBDa contains the complete palette of cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids— plant-identical , just as nature intended. These substances work synergistically (the entourage effect) and enhance each other.

Why should we pull apart that natural intelligence?

That is precisely why full spectrum CBDa is increasingly called the gold standard .

On the science page of CBD Spain & Science , Peter Vermeul – pioneer, owner and scientific brain behind CBD Spain Medicinal Food SL – shows why full spectrum CBDa is therapeutically superior to any isolated CBD oil.

In addition, the acidic forms (CBDa) have an additional advantage:
They are absorbed into the blood faster and more efficiently , which means that their effect is often noticeable more quickly.

Finally

No natural remedy is as widely applicable, as systemically focused, or as gentle in its action as Full Spectrum CBDa oil. And yet, we still don't fully grasp the true value of what we have in our hands.

Especially now – ten years later – we see that animals (and people) are becoming more complex and seriously ill, while regular medication no longer always provides an answer to this complexity.

This is why CBDa oil is no longer a supplement for Annette de Vogel, but a fundamental part of her naturopathic practice.

Not because it solves everything.
But because it invites the body to do what it can do naturally: recover!
