What is CBD?
Does it get you high?
Are there real health benefits to CBD?
Does it treat cancer?
Chronic pain?
Will it show up on a drug test?
Or is it all just a marketing
gimmick and a waste of money?
Shorthand for cannabidiol, CBD is a naturally
occurring chemical compound
derived from the cannabis plant.
A safe, non-addictive substance.
CBD is one of more than
hundred phytocannabinoids,
Unlike its cousin,
delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC),
which is a major active ingredient in the
cannabis plant, CBD is not psychoactive.
Meaning it won’t get you high.
That’s because CBD and THC act in different ways
and on different receptors
in the brain and in our body.
Nowadays CBD is being heavily studied by
researchers and scientists for its
significant therapeutic attributes.
Is CBD safe?
Some side effects that people report
are nausea, fatigue, and irritability.
CBD can also increase the level in your
blood of the blood thinner coumadin,
and it can even raise levels of
certain other medications in your blood ;
by the exact same mechanism
that grapefruit juice does.
So please talk to your doctor about this.
