Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the two most prominent cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant, and is extracted from the stalks, leaves and flowers. Chow420 supports CBD extracted from the industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) plant, which has been bred for a high concentration of CBD, and a low concentration of delta-9-THC (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol), the other most prominent cannabinoid. Current studies are finding an increasing number of potential healing properties associated with CBD with little risk for negative side effects. Unlike THC, CBD is non-psychoactive. It is an anti-psychoactive ingredient and can be used to treat the effects of THC.
CBD has therapeutic effects that make it useful for alleviating problematic sleep disorder, inflammatory, anxiety, mood and skin conditions.
CBD can come in the form of gummies, capsules, vapes, flower, oil & tinctures, concentrates, edibles and topicals. To experience the effects in faster, it is advisable to take oils, vapes and flower which are absorbed quicker into the bloodstream. Gummies and edibles first pass through the digestive system, while topicals might not be absorbed in sufficient quantities for optimal effect beyong skincare modulation.
