Cannabidiol\u202f(CBD) is a cannabinoid, a type of natural compound found in cannabis and hemp.

THC produces what many consider to be a \u201chigh\u201d or an altered state characterized by euphoria, pleasure or increased perception of the senses. CBD does not cause a THC-like high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CBD does have positive health benefits, such as helping people with anxiety and depression. If you\u2019re looking for CBD as a way to get high, you \u2018re not going to experience that. <\/p>\n\n\n

\n\n\n

CBD VS.\u202fTHC<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A common concern among those seeking the therapeutic effects of CBD oil is the potential hallucinogenic effects.\u202fSo we will talk about the difference between CBD and THC. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

CBD is one of the 85 compounds known as cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant.\u202fThis substance has several applications, including relief from anxiety, nausea, vomiting, inflammation and psychotic illnesses, as well as possible properties to fight cancer and tumor cells.\u202fIn recent years, several investigations have been carried out on the effects of CBD in the areas mentioned above, although there is still no conclusive evidence on its multiple benefits.\u202fHowever, studies show promising results and increasingly reveal supporting evidence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite research supporting the effects of CBD oil, sometimes information about THC dulls its benefits.\u202fTHC is another compound of the cannabis plant that has psychotropic properties associated with sedation, anxiety, euphoria, relaxation and even hallucinations, illusions, among others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fact that THC and CBD are closely related leads many to wonder: \u201cCan I get high on CBD oil?\u201d\u202fIt is a common question, especially considering that THC products are illegal almost everywhere on the planet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

HEMP VS.\u202fMARIJUANA<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

To answer the question, you should be aware that CBD oil can be prepared from hemp or marijuana plant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are the crucial data: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

CBD is a completely legal substance when extracted from industrial hemp (as is the case with CBD products from our site) because THC levels are irrelevant.\u202fIndustrial hemp is grown for its firm stems and low THC levels, making it impossible for you to get high with products made from this plant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, CBD can also be found in marijuana.\u202fIn this case, THC and CBD levels can vary considerably by supplier, and the legality of the product may be different in each jurisdiction.\u202fIf you don\u2019t want to experience any kind of hallucinogenic effect, it\u2019s a good idea to avoid products made from marijuana (unless you know your CBD and THC levels exactly).\u202fTo know these levels, you can go to an independent laboratory or pay attention to the information published by the suppliers.\u202fAll responsible companies carry out tests to reveal the levels of heavy metals, mold and cannabinoids in their products. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In summary, marijuana has high levels of THC and a low concentration of CBD, while the opposite occurs in the hemp plant.\u202fFor this reason, CBD oil is extracted from hemp due to the high level of CBD and low THC index. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you still ask yourself, \u201cCan I get high on CBD?\u201d The answer is no.\u202fThis is because CBD by itself does not produce hallucinogenic effects, since THC contamination is unlikely in the oil extraction process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below, we will take a closer look at the production process of CBD oil and some research on it to clarify the doubts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

HOW CBD OIL IS PREPARED<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The hemp plants used for the preparation of CBD oil are specifically cultivated to have the highest concentration of CBD and the lowest THC level possible.\u202fGrowers take advantage of the fact that hemp is rich in CBD, so they cross plants to enhance this characteristic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While marijuana has a THC concentration of between 5% and 10%, hemp has a concentration of just 0.5% \u2013 1%.\u202fThese levels are so low that they really are negligible.\u202fTHC is concentrated in the buds, but since hemp is grown for its height and the properties of its stems, it does not present them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are 3 methods to extract CBD: CO2, ethanol and oil (you can learn more about it here).\u202fCBD extracted by these methods is close to its purest form and has negligible traces of THC.\u202fHowever, we prefer the CO2 method due to its cleanliness since it does not leave undesirable by-products as in the other two methods. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now you know that THC is the compound that causes psychotropic effects, and that it is practically not present in CBD oil.\u202fNow, let\u2019s see what research says about CBD. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

PROMISING SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH ON CBD<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The popularity of CBD for treating different ailments and diseases has grown in recent years.\u202fAnd with it, so has the number of studies.\u202fRecently, research was published looking at the therapeutic uses of cannabinoids, especially CBD.\u202fThe study claims that CBD is a substance without psychotropic effects that can help treat inflammation, diabetes, cancer and neurodegenerative disorders.\u202fThis research even establishes that CBD has antipsychotic properties (the opposite effect of other cannabinoids like THC). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A study published in 2006 suggests that CBD is a safe antipsychotic compound that can have anxiolytic effects.\u202fThe same research suggests that THC may increase vulnerability to disorders such as schizophrenia due to its psychotropic effects, while CBD may serve to treat such mental problems thanks to its opposite properties. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are fundamental differences between CBD and THC, even in the way both compounds interact with receptors in the brain.\u202fAlthough more research is still needed to determine the exact mechanisms, so far CBD has been found to interact with brain receptors in a completely opposite way to THC.\u202fThis is good evidence to support the claim that CBD and THC have completely different effects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

CONCLUSION<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Research increasingly supports the different benefits of CBD;\u202fthe non-psychotropic compound of hemp.\u202fHowever, such benefits are often overshadowed by the hallucinogenic effects of THC;\u202fthe psychoactive compound in marijuana.\u202fThe more you discover about CBD and its differences with THC, the more and more people benefit from its positive effects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the large amount of positive evidence, what do you think the future of CBD will be?\u202fSeveral researchers suggest that CBD can help fight serious illness.\u202fDo you have a story about the positive effects of CBD?\u202fPlease leave your experiences in the comments section. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
