What is CBD?
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a cannabis compound that has significant medical benefits, but does not make people feel “stoned” & can actually counteract the psycho-activity of THC. The fact that CBD is non-psychoactive makes it an appealing option for patients looking for relief from an array of ailments. More research on CBD can open your eyes to the benefits it could potentially have on your day to day life.

What is THC?
Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the compound in cannabis that is psychoactive & gives you the feeling of being high. However, THC’s chemical make-up is very similar to its counterpart, CBD, which actually combats the effects of THC.
What is CBD used for?
While the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has not yet approved CBD, studies & anecdotal evidence suggest that the compound could be beneficial for managing seizures, fighting the spread of cancer, treating neurological disorders like Parkinson’s disease or Alzheimer’s disease, reducing anxiety, curtailing nausea & relieving pain. While CBD is available legally under federal law, regardless of a prescription, we recommend you discuss the possibility of incorporating CBD into your treatment regimen with your physician so they may give you their opinion on the uses of CBD or if it is right for you.
