Glossary cannabinoids
CBD (Cannabidiol)
The second most abundant cannabinoid in cannabis and the primary cannabinoid in hemp. CBD is non-intoxicating — it doesn't produce a high. It interacts with the endocannabinoid system through multiple pathways and has a growing research base for anxiety, epilepsy, and pain. The FDA has approved one CBD medication (Epidiolex) for severe epilepsy. CBD also modifies the THC experience, reducing some of THC's anxiety-inducing effects.
