"THIS MOLECULE IS NOT UNIQUE TO THE CANNABIS PLANT."
CBD COMES FROM MARIJUANA, RIGHT?
Wrong. Cannabidiol is in a class of chemical compounds called cannabinoids and is found in many plants like hops, black pepper, and echinacea-not just marijuana-that can also be made naturally in the body, says Bomi Joseph, Ph.D., director of the Peak Health Foundation and noted plant compound researcher. "This molecule is not unique to the cannabis plant, but it may not be economically feasible to get out of other plants because the levels are too low."
WHAT DOES CBD DO?
CBD binds to receptors in the body and regulates your immune system, which helps with its functioning and the healing process. CBD can tamp down inflammation and speed up tissue recovery. Research has also shown that the compound can help manage epilepsy, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, and depression.
WILL IT GET ME HIGH?
Nope. Although the molecule is found in marijuana (at low levels) and hemp (at high levels), it won't give you the munchies. Its mode of activeness is completely independent of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the psychoactive constituent of cannabis, says Joseph.
WILL CBD APPEAR ON A DRUG TEST?
No, it's not a compound that is tested for during drug screens.
SO IT'S LEGAL?
Well, it depends. CBD derived from hemp is OK, thanks to a 2018 federal law that delisted it as a restricted substance. However, CBD from cannabis is still a controlled substance. Also, some states and municipalities such as New York City and Virginia have laws on the books that restrict CBD sales or use.
