THC and CBD are both cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant, but they have some major differences. THC is the compound that causes the “high” we think of when we refer to cannabis use, while CBD is non-psychoactive and known for its potential health benefits. CBD has been shown to potentially help with anxiety, pain, and inflammation without the mind-altering effect of THC.
Also, while THC is still illegal in many areas, CBD derived from hemp is legal in most nations, making it a popular choice for those seeking the benefits of cannabis without the associated high. However, it’s still important to note that legality still varies from place to place
