The hemp plant contains dozens of cannabinoid compounds, the best known of which are CBD and THC (tetrahydrocannabinol). CBD is a chemical compound present in cannabis in the same way as THC, but in greater quantities than the latter.<\/p>\n\n<p>Extracted from cannabis plants, cannabidiol comes in an oily form, which is then easily incorporated into a liquid solution. CBD can then be consumed as an essential oil or vaping liquid for electronic cigarettes. As a result of fashion, the name CBD can also be found on the packaging of many products, particularly cosmetics. This marketing use of CBD terminology only indicates that a certain amount of CBD, often small, is contained in the finished product.<\/p>\n\n<p>Unlike THC, CBD has no psychoactive effect on the body. Moreover, it does not cause addiction. It cannot therefore be described as a drug. It is for these reasons that its use within a legal framework and under certain conditions is allowed.<\/p>\n\n<p>The democratisation of its use in Europe benefits from a certain legal vagueness which makes it considered as &#8220;legal cannabis&#8221;. Its therapeutic benefits have been studied for several decades and recognised in a number of medical fields, hence its other nickname of &#8220;therapeutic cannabis&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n<p>CBD is marketed as crystals, flowers or pollen in their most natural configuration. In the form of a processed product, there are e-liquids and essential oils or solid capsules. The cosmetics industry will use CBD extracts whose quantity and quality will be difficult to control.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is CBD Cannabidiol, better known by its abbreviated name CBD, is a molecule extracted from cannabis.
