Understanding CBD

Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of over 113 cannabinoids present in the cannabis plant. CBD is non-psychoactive and interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system, which is composed of a series of receptors found throughout the brain, organs, and gastrointestinal tract. The endocannabinoid system is designed to maintain bodily homeostasis and plays a role in everyday bodily functions such as pain, memory, mood, appetite, stress, sleep, metabolism and immune and reproductive function.
