What is CBD?
CBD stands for cannabidiol. In spite of its popularity, CBD still carries with it the stigma of Marijuana and THC because it is the second most prevalent of the active ingredients of cannabis (marijuana). Although they come from similar plants, most CBD is manufactured from Hemp and not Marijuana. Hemp plants are bred to have extremely low levels of THC in them while producing high amounts of CBD (the stuff you are looking for). Some manufacturers then go through many lengths to extract all the THC from the end product leaving 100% CBD for those that simply don’t want to take THC or are afraid of failing a drug screen.

Although we need more research, CBD may prove to be an option for managing chronic pain, insomnia, and anxiety. One of the most common questions when it comes to CBD is if it is legal.
