Cannabidiol (or CBD) is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid found in the hemp plant (there are actually dozens of cannabinoids). Cannabinoids are the primary compounds that are produced by the cannabis plant. Oh no, I said “cannabis”. Did your mind’s eye suddenly picture a long-haired hippy guy smoking weed, aka Marijuana? Well, a lot of people do, but did you know that hemp also comes from the same plant family? In my mind’s eye, I see ropes made of hemp and cotton outfits worn by pretty cool people enjoying nature. Marijuana plants are raised to produce the highest levels of THC (so users can get high). Industrial hemp, in contrast, is raised to produce high levels of CBD with the lowest amounts of THC.
