Cannabidiol, or "CBD," is one of over 100 naturally occurring compounds in the cannabis plant species (hemp and marijuana) called cannabinoids. When consumed or applied topically, CBD interacts with the Endocannabinoid System (ECS) of the human body to produce various desirable effects, including relaxation, relief, and a sense of balance. CBD is the second most abundant cannabinoid in cannabis and, unlike THC, is non-psychoactive and non-addictive. CBD derived from hemp is legal in all 50 states and has even been approved by the FDA to treat certain medical conditions like seizures.
