CBD It's A Kind Of Magic

Cannabidiol (CBD) oil is a product that’s derived from cannabis. It’s a type of cannabinoid, which are the chemicals naturally found in marijuana plants. Even though it comes from marijuana plants, CBD doesn’t create a “high” effect or any form of intoxication — that’s caused by another cannabinoid, known as THC.

What is Hemp?

Hemp is a name for cannabis varieties that have no or extremely low levels of THC, the main psychotropic chemical responsible for the euphoric and intoxicating effects most commonly associated with the plant. While there are over 550 distinct chemical compounds in the cannabis plant, federal law in the United States defines hemp as containing less than 0.03% THC, and it generally has much higher levels of cannabidiol (CBD). Hence, the terms hemp and CBD are often used interchangeably.
