What is CBD?
Cannabidiol, or CBD, is a natural compound that has become a staple of the wellness industry. Derived from the hemp plant, the natural substance is one of many cannabinoids that interact with the human body’s endocannabinoid system and can help your mental and physical well-being.
The endocannabinoid system is important because it helps regulate bodily functions, such as mood, sleep, appetite and immune response. CBD is unique because it offers potential therapeutic benefits without the “high” psychoactive effects most people associate with cannabis use. This makes CBD uniquely positioned as a good option for people seeking the benefits of cannabinoids without the downside.
