CBD
CBD, or cannabidiol, is a compound derived from the cannabis plant that has become famous for its potential health benefits. Unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), which is the psychoactive component of cannabis that processes a "high," CBD is non-intoxicating and is generally used for its therapeutic effects. CBD interacts with the body's endocannabinoid system (ECS), a complex cell-signalling system that plays a role in maintaining a variety of functions, involving sleep, mood, pain, and immune responses. The ECS helps regulate balance in the body, and CBD influences this system by interacting with cannabinoid receptors, potentially enhancing its ability to address imbalances.
