Health Benefits of CBD

CBD Oil

Cannabidiol or CBD has mind-blowing health benefits for humans and animals. The popularity of CBD is increasing continuously and so is the demand for CBD products. What makes this substance better is that it is a legal and safer alternative to other cannabis substances. While other cannabinoids of cannabis plants have benefits and possible side effects, that is not the case with CBD. In fact, CBD has many health benefits without the risk of side effects. So, if you wonder if CBD can cause addiction or the “high effect”, the answer is no. The one substance of cannabis that does cause addiction and “makes you high” is THC. To make sure these effects are not present when using CBD products, there is no THC in CBD products for sale.

You can purchase CBD products such as CBD oil, gummies, or creams in-store or online in every state that allows it. So far, we explained a few things, but below we will dive into details of the health benefits of CBD. Before doing so, let us explain why most countries consider CBD legal and safe to use.

Is CBD legal?

So, cannabis may be of different types, it can be of Sativa family, Indica or Ruderalis. Cannabis Sativa has two strains in the name of Marijuana and Hemp or Industrial Hemp as some like to call it. As we know marijuana is illegal, because it contains too much THC, thus causing addiction and the “high effect”. Marijuana contains more THC than hemp and less CBD than hemp. That is why cultivating hemp is quite trendy nowadays, because it can produce more CBD and less than 0.3% THC. Under the 0.3% THC condition, hemp is legal by federal law in the majority of the United States of America. This rule varies in European countries and the rest of the world as some states only allow hemp with less than 0.2% or 0.1% or no THC at all.

After clearing this out, you may think, “If this cannabis substance doesn’t make me high, then why should I buy it?”. And the answer is, well, CBD contains numerous therapeutic properties that can help humans and animals. Animals and humans possess an endocannabinoid system that works these cannabinoid receptors in the brain and immune system. CBD as one of those cannabinoids is able to communicate with these receptors and help in different ways.
