In recent years, CBD (Cannabidiol) has emerged as a versatile remedy for a variety of ailments. From pain relief to anxiety reduction, CBD's therapeutic uses are well-documented. However, one area that is increasingly drawing attention is the role of CBD in enhancing libido and sexual health. At CBD Calao Shop France, we believe in staying abreast of the latest research to offer our customers the most effective CBD products. In this article, we delve into what current scientific studies reveal about CBD and libido.

The Endocannabinoid System and Libido

The endocannabinoid system (ECS) plays a crucial role in regulating various physiological processes, including mood, pain sensation, and yes, libido. CBD interacts with the ECS, potentially offering a natural way to boost sexual desire and performance.

What Does the Research Say?

While research on CBD and sexual health is still in its infancy, preliminary studies offer promising results. A study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine found that cannabinoids could serve as a potential treatment for sexual dysfunctions, owing to their anxiolytic and vasodilatory effects.

CBD for Both Men and Women

Interestingly, CBD's potential benefits are not limited to any one gender. For men, the relaxation effects of CBD could help with performance anxiety, while its anti-inflammatory properties could potentially help with conditions like erectile dysfunction. For women, CBD may offer relief from pain during intercourse or help balance hormonal fluctuations that affect libido.

Potential Side Effects

As with any supplement, it's essential to be aware of potential side effects. While CBD is generally considered safe, it can interact with certain medications and may not be suitable for everyone. Always consult a healthcare provider before incorporating CBD into your sexual health regimen.

Quality Matters

When it comes to CBD products for sexual health, quality is paramount. At CBD Calao Shop France, we offer a range of high-quality, scientifically-backed CBD products designed to align with your health needs.

Conclusion

While more research is needed to definitively establish the benefits of CBD for sexual health, existing studies are encouraging. As the body of evidence grows, CBD could well become a staple in many people's sexual wellness routines.

Working Group Goals and Charter

The Attributes for Collaboration and Federation Working Group will have participants from the key stakeholder groups that need/use, "own" and protect common attributes used in federated access exchanges.  The working group will explore reasons default attribute release policies (ARPs) are not in place at most campuses, propose a default list of attributes for InCommon IdP operators, develop and execute a roadmap for adoption of Research and Scholarship Service Category as well as a default attribute release policy (ARP), and review and enhance online content for identity provider administrators so they have a clear set of steps to follow to implement the desired approach.

Background

The InCommon Federation was founded on a principle of privacy protection (based on local authentication and limited attribute release to SPs) with an expectation that campuses would actively manage their Attribute Release Policies and adopt attribute release “bundles”, based on the needs of their respective campus communities. However, this approach, influenced by a conservative interpretation of privacy regulations such as FERPA, and a common assumption that the primary driver for attribute release is enterprise contracts, has resulted in very restrictive Attribute Release Policies on campuses.

The Research & Scholarship (R&S) Category, was created as a scalable way for campus IdPs to easily create a global attribute release policy targeting SPs that have been validated as supporting Research & Scholarship. The underlying principle is that for people accessing these SPs, associating their name with their work is more important than remaining anonymous.

Unfortunately R&S, while a great idea, is an opt-in model and has not been adopted by enough institutions to make federation “work” for research organizations. A joint InCommon Steering, InCommon Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) and InCommon Assurance Advisory Committee (AAC) priority for 2017 and the first 6 months of 2018, is to “flip the bit” of R&S, i.e., make it an opt-out model that is a social expectation and the technical default (as much as possible), and dramatically increase the adoption across current higher ed and research identity providers.  Otherwise, frustrated research organizations may seek alternatives to the InCommon federation.

In addition, many non-R&S SPs only require a unique identifier or alternatively an email address to allow access to services.  These attributes (including in some cases a user’s name and campus affiliation) are usually considered “directory information” under FERPA guidelines, and unless a student specifically requests to block release of that information, could be released by default to ALL SPs.

The InCommon Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), InCommon Steering, and the InCommon Assurance Advisory Committee (AAC) (note the AAC was renamed to the CTAB in 2018) are committed to re-addressing this issue of basic attributes needed for federation, and working with InCommon participants and their campus stakeholders to ensure attribute release meets the needs of the community.

Membership

This will initially be an invitation-only membership working group in order to ensure we have the right stakeholders contributing their ideas and expertise.  However, webinar(s), email lists, and the WG wiki will be used to communicate with the community.  (See member roles in the right sidebar.)
