CBD 101
Your guide to understanding CBD, how it works, the different types of CBD, and how to choose the right products for your needs.
What Is CBD?
CBD, short for cannabidiol, is a naturally occurring compound found in the hemp plant. Unlike THC, CBD does not produce an intoxicating “high.” CBD is available in many different product formats, including gummies, oils, topicals, capsules, and flower.
CBD products can vary by formulation, serving size, ingredients, and cannabinoid profile. Understanding these differences can help you compare products and choose an option that best fits your preferences.
