Cannabidiol or CBD, as it is commonly known, is a cannabinoid found in cannabis plants. However, it is abundant in amount in the hemp plant which belongs to the Cannabis Sativa family. Hemp has around 113 cannabinoids in its parts, among which only CBD rose to fame because of its therapeutic properties.
As soon as hemp was legalized in 2018, CBD products hit the market in large numbers. As very little research was done on CBD, no one was exactly sure about its uses. But over time, anecdotal evidence from those who experienced its miracle first hand encouraged many more to try. Now, you will find supermarkets selling CBD chocolates, CBD gummies, CBD vapes, etc.
