Cannabidiol (CBD) is a naturally occurring compound derived from the cannabis plant. Unlike THC, another cannabis compound, CBD is not psychoactive and does not induce a “high.” CBD has gained attention for its potential therapeutic effects, including anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anxiolytic, and anticonvulsant properties. It is available in various forms, such as oils, tinctures, capsules, and topicals. Research suggests that CBD may have the potential to manage conditions like epilepsy, anxiety, pain, and certain neurological disorders. However, further research is needed to fully understand its mechanisms of action and its efficacy for various medical conditions.
