CBD is one of the many “cannabinoids” (no less than 85) that can be found in hemp and cannabis. Being an important constituent of the plant, CBD accounts for at least 40% of its extracts. It is a major phytocannabinoid that has a broader range of medical applications and benefits when compared to tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and is recognized for its sedative effects according to various tests (while other studies indicate it enhances alertness).

But what’s really interesting is that CBD has minimum or no side effects at all. Since CBD does not act significantly due to its biological effects, the chances of any individual suffering from psychotropic effects (the main trait of other marijuana derivatives) are next to none. This should explain why it has higher potential for being used for the development of various medicines in the field of pharmaceutical research.
