What is CBD? An Introduction to Hemp-Derived Cannabidiol
Nov 17, 2024
In recent years, CBD has become a buzzword in the wellness industry, but what exactly is CBD, and why is it gaining so much attention? At UnCanna, a veteran-owned and operated leader in the natural supplement industry, we’re here to break down the basics and help you understand the potential of hemp-derived cannabidiol.
What is CBD?
CBD, short for cannabidiol, is one of the many compounds found in the hemp plant. Unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the psychoactive component of marijuana, CBD is non-intoxicating. This means it won’t make you feel “high” but can still offer a range of potential health benefits.
How Does CBD Differ from THC?
The primary distinction between CBD and THC lies in their effects on the body and mind:
- CBD: Non-psychoactive, supports recovery, reduces inflammation, alleviates pain, and promotes relaxation.
- THC: Psychoactive, creating the “high” associated with marijuana.
UnCanna uses hemp-derived CBD, which is federally legal under the 2018 Farm Bill and contains less than 0.3% THC, ensuring safety and compliance.
Addressing Common Misconceptions
There are several myths about CBD, and we’re here to set the record straight:
- CBD is not addictive. It’s non-psychoactive and does not produce dependency.
- CBD won’t impair your daily activities. Instead, it enhances focus, relaxation, and recovery.
- CBD is legal in most states. Hemp-derived CBD products like those from UnCanna are carefully crafted to meet federal guidelines.
