What is CBD
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a phytocannabinoid discovered in 1940. It is one of the major identified cannabinoids in cannabis plants and accounts for up to 40% of the plant's extract. CBD does not have the same psychoactivity as THC, and may change the effects of THC on the body if both are present. CBD infused products should not be confused with Hemp Seed products as both are very different and provide their own unique benefits.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is, by far, one of the most studied compounds of the known cannabinoids found in Cannabis sativa. It’s one of at least 85 active compounds inside cannabis plants and has quickly gained favor among those seeking a different approach to everyday wellness. 
CBD has quality benefits concerning the human body; emerging studies support the idea that CBD interacts with the endocannabinoid system (ECS) – a naturally-occurring biological network composed of cannabinoid receptors – to help the body maintain overall health and wellness.
CBD is typically either hemp-derived or marijuana-derived however it may be found in other plant matter such as orange peels and certain types of tree bark.
CBD is typically extracted from hemp, which is bred to contain minimal THC. Industrial hemp, according to federal law, must contain less than 0.3 percent THC. Hemp-derived CBD products offer the properties of the entire hemp plant (CBD, additional cannabinoids, terpenes) without the presence of THC – so no associated high!
CBD is also a particular type of phytocannabinoid – one of the several identified phytocannabinoids found in Cannabis sativa, including others such as cannabinol (CBN) and cannabigerol (CBG). 
What is a phytocannabinoid you might ask? A phytocannabinoid is a cannabinoid that synthesizes in plants organically, and conversely, an endocannabinoid is one that our bodies naturally produce. Endocannabinoids and phytocannabinoids react to the same type of receptors stretched throughout the human body, which is why phytocannabinoids are particularly useful.
