Cannabidiol (CBD) is a naturally occurring compound found in the resinous flower of cannabis, a plant with a rich history as a medicine going back thousands of years. Today the therapeutic properties of CBD are being tested and confirmed by scientists and doctors around the world. A safe, non-addictive substance, CBD is one of more than a hundred "phytocannabinoids," which are unique to cannabis and endow the plant with its robust therapeutic profile. CBD is closely related to another important medicinally active phytocannabinoid: tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the compound that causes the high that cannabis is famous for. These are the two components of cannabis that have been most studied by scientists. Both CBD and THC have significant therapeutic attributes. But unlike THC, CBD does not make a person feel "stoned" or intoxicated. That’s because CBD and THC act in different ways on different receptors in the brain and body.

If you only know three letters associated with cannabis, they're probably T-H-C. But there's another term on the rise:  [[https://git.k8sutv.it.ntnu.no/lukasd0346685/lukas2017/wiki/CBD+Oil+uK+-+how+%2526+where+to+buy+CBD+Oils+in+2025|CBD]] CBD. CBD, one of the more than 100 chemicals in cannabis, is emerging as a popular wellness ingredient. The plant extract, often consumed as an oil under the tongue, is now the featured ingredient in high-end products including coconut oil, body lotion, face serum, olive oil, jam, bath scrub, cold-brew coffee,  [[https://hsf-fl-sl.de/wiki/index.php?title=It_Is_Produced_In_Oregon|CBD]] sports salve,  [[https://gitlab.anptic.gov.bf/reediyq049480/cbd8512/issues/1|CBD]] lip balm,  [[https://gitlab.innive.com/darwinnoonan2/8579highline-wellness-cbd-product-page/-/issues/12|CBD]] infused water, gummy snacks and dog treats. Products' prices vary but may cost about triple what their CBD-less counterparts do. Unlike THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol), [[http://gitea.bettercell.synology.me:3000/odettemoriarty/odette2002/wiki/Know-the-Health-Benefits-of-CBD-Gummies|cbd gummies]] (Cannabidiol) won't get you high, and it's becoming so mainstream that even Coca-Cola may have interest in a CBD drink. There are still plenty of unknowns when it comes to [[https://git.jakubzabski.pl/brittgargett22|organic cbd]]. The FDA has only approved the use of CBD oil in specific cases of epilepsy.

-[[https://ajuda.cyber8.com.br/index.php/What_Is_A_CBD_Balm|CBD formula]] can actually lessen or neutralize the psychoactive effects of THC, depending on how much of each compound is consumed. Many people want the health benefits of cannabis without the high - or with less of a high. The fact that CBD is therapeutically potent as well as non-intoxicating, and easy to take in various forms, makes it an appealing treatment option for those who are cautious about trying cannabis for the first time. Many people are seeking alternatives to pharmaceuticals with harsh side effects - medicine more in synch with natural processes. By tapping into how we function biologically on a deep level, CBD can provide relief for chronic pain, anxiety, inflammation, depression, and many other conditions. Extensive scientific research - much of it sponsored by the U.S. CBD has proven neuroprotective effects and its anti-cancer properties are being investigated at several academic research centers in the United States and elsewhere. A 2010 brain cancer study by California scientists found that CBD "enhances the inhibitory effects of THC on human glioblastoma cell proliferation and survival." This means that CBD makes THC even more potent as an anticancer substance.
+Epidiolex, the FDA-approved CBD drug, was placed in the "least restrictive" category of controlled substances by the Drug Enforcement Agency, meaning it's in the same category with cough medicine Robitussin AC. Laws surrounding the sale of hemp CBD are murky at best; products made with the cannabinoid are not legal in all 50 states, though the oil is legal in more states than medicinal marijuana. Even in California, where recreational marijuana consumption is legal for adults 21 and older, there are complicated rules. And yet,  [[https://myhomemypleasure.co.uk/wiki/index.php?title=User:EfrainGreathouse|organic cbd]] even with new guidance on CBD use in food products in the state, the industry continues to grow. "A lot of states only allow [[https://rkctoen.nl/index.php/CBD_Cannabidiol_:_What_Does_It_Do_And_How_Does_It_Affect_The_Brain_Body|cbd hemp extract]] for a limited amount of medical conditions. But they’re not checking the mail, not checking these other companies that are shipping in," Kristen Yoder, host of podcast CannaBS Detector, said at the first-ever CBD Expo in Anaheim, California. The FDA has approved of the use of CBD to treat Lennox-Gastaut syndrome and Dravet syndrome, two forms of epilepsy.

-Also in 2010, German researchers reported that CBD stimulates neurogenesis, the growth of new brain cells, in adult mammals. How Does CBD Work? CBD and THC interact with our bodies in a variety of ways. One of the main ways is by mimicking and augmenting the effects of the compounds in our bodies called "endogenous cannabinoids" - so named because of their similarity to compounds found in the cannabis plant. The discovery of the endocannabinoid system has significantly advanced our understanding of [[http://olangodito.com/bbs/board.php?bo_table=free&wr_id=6401710|Try Global Health Farms Gummies]] and disease. It has major implications for nearly every area of medical science and helps to explain how and why CBD and THC are such versatile compounds - and why cannabis is such a widely consumed plant, despite its illegal status. The endocannabinoid system plays a crucial role in regulating a broad range of physiological processes that affect our everyday experience - our mood, our energy level, our intestinal fortitude, immune activity, blood pressure, bone density, glucose metabolism, how we experience pain, stress, hunger, and more.
+(Image: [[https://yewtu.be/vi/evmYGNwxJso/maxres.jpg|https://yewtu.be/vi/evmYGNwxJso/maxres.jpg]])So what's the draw of the chemical compound for everyone else? Pro skateboarder Matt Miller, who started [[http://wiki.kumetan.net/index.php?title=%E5%88%A9%E7%94%A8%E8%80%85:RodneyCarnarvon|cbd tincture]] brand Miller Healer, turns to CBD sports salve and patches as his primary medicine. Stacy Verbiest, who founded therapeutic women’s cannabis line Wink with creams and tinctures, says CBD helped her friend manage the pain of cancer treatments. Pet owners buy cat and dog treats with the hopes of helping their best friend feel happier and more comfortable. Experts, including those with the World Health Organization, note that there's some potential for treatment beyond epilepsy, but research isn't as advanced. Greg Avetisyan is co-founder of the CBD store Topikal Everything Hemp, which just opened a second California location this year. THC, meanwhile, helps with "pain relief, sleep and opening up the appetite," Avetisyan says. He and his brother opened Topikal because they prefer treating their conditions - he has rheumatoid arthritis and his brother has anxiety - with just CBD.
-What happens if the endocannabinoid system doesn’t function properly? What are the consequences of a chronically deficient or overactive endocannabinoid system? In a word, disease. Cutting-edge science has shown that the endocannabinoid system is dysregulated in nearly all pathological conditions. Thus, it stands to reason that "modulating endocannabinoid system activity may have therapeutic potential in almost all diseases affecting humans," as Pal Pacher and George Kunos, scientists with the U.S. National Institutes of [[http://stephankrieger.net/index.php?title=Benutzer:LeonoreElsey0|Global Health Wellness CBD]] (NIH), suggested in a 2013 publication. By modulating the endocannabinoid system and enhancing endocannabinoid tone, CBD and THC can slow - or in some cases stop - disease progression. There’s a lot of excitement about the healing potential of CBD - with good reason. But it wasn’t until June 25, 2018, that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recognized cannabidiol as a medicine by approving Epidiolex, an almost pure pharmaceutical CBD formulation, as a treatment for two severe pediatric seizure disorders, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome and Dravet syndrome.
+For them, THC induces paranoia. Dr. Leeta Jussila, a practitioner of Oriental medicine who specializes in cannabis, says that everyone's system is different, so the way people absorb CBD differs. She recommends new users consult with health care providers and closely track how small doses of the chemical effect them. Marijuana research firm Greenwave Advisors anticipates that the CBD industry could reach $3 billion by 2021 and eventually well over $200 billion in the U.S., if the so-called Farm Bill legalizing hemp as a crop passes. Jonathan Eppers, creator of a CBD beverage company, sees the plant supplement as good for his well-being and good for business. CBD "gave me a purpose again in my life," he said. After going through "debilitating anxiety" while stepping down as CEO from embattled rental housing startup RadPad about two years ago, he turned to CBD oil on the recommendation of a friend. He was wary of buying a product from a natural food store that, at the time, was kept in a locked box. Excited to introduce others to [[https://support.ourarchives.online/index.php?title=User:MarshaHeaton69|CBD]], Eppers watched market trends, talked to hemp farmers and decided to launch a brand-new company featuring his favorite chemical, drink brand Vybes. The California-based hemp CBD beverage went on the market this January. Eppers projects Vybes will produce 1-1.5 million bottles this year and already has hundreds of retailers selling drinks across the country. As Eppers has seen, the CBD foods market is quickly growing. As for Coca-Cola's possible CBD drink? "Along with many others in the beverage industry, we are closely watching the growth of non-psychoactive CBD as an ingredient in functional wellness beverages around the world," the company said in a statement in September. "The space is evolving quickly.

Henceforth, Epidiolex would be considered a Schedule V drug, the least dangerous designation under the Controlled Substances Act. The DEA later "descheduled" Epidiolex and removed it from the federal government’s list of controlled substances. But the DEA kept cannabis and CBD (when derived from a cannabis plant with more than 0.3 % THC) on Schedule I as an illegal narcotic. In the world according to Uncle Sam, pharmaceutical CBD is officially the only good cannabinoid while the rest of the plant remains an ‘evil’ weed.
