What is CBD?
CBD stands for Cannabidiol and is a chemical compound found in both the hemp and marijuana plant. This cannabinoid started to gain mainstream traction in 2018 when the US Farm Bill was introduced and allowed for the sale of legal industrialized hemp. By legalizing the use of hemp on the federal level, CBD derived specifically from hemp can be sold in every state making it a hot commodity.
THC vs CBD
There are two main chemical compounds in cannabis: CBD (cannabidiol) and THC (tetrahydrocannabinol). Both are widely known and used for their medical benefits but they are completely different cannabinoids with unique effects. CBD is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid that interacts with your endocannabinoid system in an entirely separate way from THC and other psychoactive compounds.
Is CBD Legal?
CBD is technically legal in the US because of the 2018 Farm Bill. However, there are still trials and tribulations when it comes to selling CBD. Because CBD is found in both hemp and marijuana plants, its origins are particularly important when it comes to legality.
