What you need to know about cannabis
Although there is a lot to understand about cannabis science, we will try our best to simplify the matter. Cannabis is composed of 120 components that are called cannabinoids. The most studied and well-known cannabinoids are CBD (Cannabidiol) and THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol). THC is the component that gives people the high associated with cannabis. CBD, on the other hand, is a non-intoxicating and non-euphoric ingredient. You may have used CBD in oils, gummies or other products for medical reasons.
