Let’s Talk About CBD

There seems to be some confusion when it comes to #medical #marijuana. Firstly, there is talk of #CBD, but also #THC? What’s the difference and which one is better for you? All of these are good questions.

 

Today we are going to be talking about CBD and how it may be of use to you. There are millions of people in the United States using CBD everyday to treat a variety of health conditions, and there just may be a reason you should be using it too. So first off, let’s define CBD and talk about what it actually is. If you are unfamiliar with cannabis, it is generally regarded as a plant with both CBD and THC.

 

CBD stands for #cannabidiol, and is the part of the cannabis plant that is mostly associated with healing and medicinal properties. Contrary to what some people believe, CBD won’t actually get you high. In fact, most CBD products have such low levels of THC, and that is why you can find CBD in states that do not allow other cannabis products with THC.

 

This leads us to our next point about CBD, which is that it will not get you high. In some states, you can walk into a dispensary and find all sorts of THC products, while in other states you cannot find any at all. That is because THC is the part of the #cannabis #plant that will actually get you high. Some states only allow CBD to be sold and not THC.

 

This means that pretty much everyone has at least some access, albeit small, to cannabis in the form of CBD. Now, before you think that CBD is lame because it doesn’t get you high, you should know that it has great purpose. CBD still has #psychoactive components, even if they are not necessarily #intoxicating.

 

Psychoactive means that it is having an active effect on your brain, specifically focused on relaxation and healing. CBD is great for treating a variety of #chronic #diseases and other #health #conditions because of its ability to reduce inflammation on a cellular level. In fact, many medical marijuana patients that use THC also like to ‘layer’ their cannabis use with CBD as well for the medical properties.

 

You can also get CBD without a medical marijuana card, which is super important for some people that do not have a qualifying condition in their state. This is great for people that want to experience the healing benefits of medical marijuana but have not yet been able to gain access.

 

Hopefully we will begin to see the federal government come up with a medical marijuana program, but that may not happen for quite some time. The great thing about CBD is how accessible it is. It can also be consumed in a variety of ways. Some people prefer smoking or vaping their CBD, and that is usually the fastest way to start feeling it’s effects. However, you can also use products like #CBD #oil, tinctures, edibles, and topicals.

 

#CBD #oil is perfect for putting into food or beverages, allowing you to get your daily dose of cannabis without even tasting it. Plus, medical marijuana products like oils and edibles are much more discreet than smoking or vaping. It is also worth mentioning that the #FDA has not officially approved and regulated CBD products on the market, meaning that there may be some fake products out there on the shelves.

 

I recommend that you be very careful when buying CBD and only buy from the trusted brands that you have researched. Otherwise, who knows what you could be getting?
