This article aims to educate cannabis enthusiasts and consumers on CBD, its effects, and how it interacts with your body.
What is CBD?
CBD (Cannabidiol) is one of the many active compounds found in the cannabis plant. Unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), which is responsible for the psychoactive "high" feeling, CBD is non-intoxicating. It is known for its potential therapeutic effects, such as reducing inflammation, anxiety, and providing relief from pain.
Does CBD get people high?
No, CBD does not get you high. The compound responsible for the high feeling is THC. CBD is a non-psychoactive compound that may provide health benefits without the intoxicating effects of THC.
How will CBD affect me?
CBD affects users differently, based on individual factors like body weight, metabolism, and sensitivity to CBD. Some common effects of CBD include relaxation, reduced anxiety, and relief from pain and inflammation.
First stop: The Endocannabinoid System
To understand how CBD works in your body, it's essential to know about the endocannabinoid system (ECS). The ECS is a complex cell signaling system that plays a crucial role in regulating essential bodily functions like sleep, mood, appetite, memory, and more. The ECS consists of three primary components: endocannabinoids, receptors, and enzymes.
Cannabinoids and the Endocannabinoid System
Found in cannabis plants, cannabinoids like CBD closely resemble the naturally occurring endocannabinoids in our bodies. Once consumed, CBD interacts with the ECS receptors, CB1, and CB2, located all over the body. This interaction may help maintain overall balance and improve various bodily functions.
CBD and the Cannabis Plant
Both hemp and marijuana, two variants of the cannabis plant, contain CBD. However, hemp-derived CBD contains less THC than marijuana-derived CBD. Under Canadian Law, CBD products derived from hemp must contain no more than 0.3% THC, ensuring no intoxicating effects upon consumption.
