What is CBD?
CBD is the abbreviated name for cannabidiol, which is a natural compound found in the Cannabis sativa plant.
Unlike THC, CBD does not cause a "high" or mind-altering effect.
It is widely used in oils, gummies, and lotions for potential relief from pain, anxiety, and sleep issues, though most uses are still being studied.
Derived mainly from the hemp plant (a cousin of marijuana) or made in a lab. Federally it is legal in the U.S., if derived from hemp containing under 0.3% THC, though state laws vary. |
