CBD (Cannabidiol) is, alongside THC, the best-known cannabinoid of the cannabis plant. The big difference: CBD is not intoxicating. It doesn't make you "high," which is why it is treated differently from THC legally and in terms of application.
How does CBD differ from THC?
Both attach to the endocannabinoid system in the body, but in different ways. While THC triggers the typical psychoactive effect, CBD does not. In many strains and products, both are present together – the ratio shapes the overall experience.
What is CBD used for?
CBD can be found in many products, from oils to low-THC flowers. Ongoing research exists on health effects, but no blanket promises – serious statements require robust studies. We deliberately make no healing claims here.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does CBD get you high?
No. CBD is not psychoactive in an intoxicating sense. If you're looking for a "high," that's THC.
Is CBD legal?
That depends on the product, residual THC content, and country, and it changes. Check the current status with official bodies – we do not provide legal advice.
Can CBD flowers be vaporized?
Yes, many use a vaporizer for this. Vaporizing is gentler than burning.
Does CBD have side effects?
It is considered well-tolerated but can have different effects depending on the amount and individual. For health questions, medical advice is the right way to go.
