CBD-short for cannabidiol, a part of cannabis (marijuana)-has gotten a lot of attention lately. With changes in the legal status of cannabis, CBD has gone from a criminalized substance to being called a miracle drug. You can find CBD terrapro full spectrum hemp oil supplements, CBD gummies, as well as foods, drinks, and lotions, in stores and pharmacies across the U.S. However, research on the effects of CBD on the body is still limited and so far no CBD products have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Along with tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), CBD is the major element of cannabis. But CBD does not cause the "high" that many feel from using cannabis. For decades, CBD was considered inactive, but last year, the FDA approved it under the brand name Epidiolex for a rare form of childhood epilepsy (at a much higher dose than is available in supplements). Researchers are in the very early stages of exploring other potential uses for CBD, including relieving anxiety, insomnia, chronic pain, and inflammation.
