No matter what you call it, you may have heard health claims about this little-known part of the marijuana plant, which comes from the plant's flowers. Some say it treats muscle aches, anxiety, sleeping troubles, chronic pain, and more. But what does the science say? We spoke to NIH expert Susan Weiss, Ph.D., to learn more and find out why consumers should be careful. Dr. Weiss is the director of the division of extramural research at the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). CBD (or cannabidiol) comes from the cannabis (or marijuana) plant. "high." Most effects of marijuana that people think of are caused by THC. Most recreational marijuana has very little CBD in it. Highline Wellness CBD product products are available through dispensaries, health food and convenience stores, and the internet. It's a widely used product that's not regulated-and is not legal to sell for its largely unproven health benefits. How does CBD work? Nobody really knows what is responsible for the mental and physical health benefits that have been attributed to it. |
