CBD for Mosquito Bites - Paradise Valley Products

With summer comes pesky mosquito and itchy inflamed skin from the bites they leave behind. We all know how miserable these skin irritations can be. Paradise Valley Products CBD to the rescue!

Why Does Our Skin Itch After a Mosquito Bite?

When the bloodsucking, female mosquito bite breaks the skin, a person's body recognizes the mosquito's saliva as a foreign substance. This causes an immune system response, which aims to flush out the intruder. The swelling around the bite is caused by histamine, which is produced by the immune system. Histamine increases blood flow and white blood cell count around the affected area, which causes inflammation or swelling. 

Mosquito bites itch because histamine also sends a signal to the nerves around the bite. Some lucky people may never react to a bite. Others might become more tolerant to a mosquito's saliva over time. For many, the reaction remains consistent, and mosquito bites are a continued summertime annoyance.

How Does Paradise Valley Products CBD Soothe the Skin After a Mosquito Bite?

Paradise Valley Products CBD cannabinoids have a strong anti-inflammatory effect and are therefore effective in reducing, or stopping, the itching which occurs after a mosquito bites and poison. 

CBD is chock full of essential fatty acids, which include crucial skin-health components like omega-3 acids, omega-6 acids, and linoleic acid. These fatty acids have excellent natural molecular properties that aid in keeping skin cells soft, supple and healthy.
