CBD or Cannabidiol is a naturally occurring compound found in the cannabis plant. Unlike THC, CBD is not psychoactive, meaning it does not produce a “high” or alter a person’s state of mind. CBD oil is made by extracting CBD from the cannabis plant, then diluting it with a carrier oil such as coconut or hemp seed oil.
CBD has been shown to offer a variety of health benefits, including reducing anxiety, relieving pain, and improving sleep. Some people also use it to counteract the psychoactive effects of THC. CBD is available in various forms, including oils, tinctures, capsules, and edibles.
