What is CBD?

CBD, or cannabidiol, is one of many chemical compounds, called cannabinoids, present in the cannabis plant. Unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), which is the main psychoactive compound of cannabis, CBD has no intoxicating effects, which means that it does not produce the euphoric effect often associated with marijuana.

History and Origin of CBD

• Old origin Cannabis has been used for thousands of years for its fibers, seeds and medicinal properties. The first uses date back to ancient China, where it was used as a medicinal remedy.
\n
• Discovery of CBD Cannabidiol was first isolated in 1940 by American researchers. Since then, he has been the subject of numerous studies for his potential therapeutic effects.

Operation of the CBD

CBD interacts with the endocannabinoid system (SEC) of the human body, a complex cell signalling system involved in regulating various physiological functions, such as pain, mood, sleep and the immune system. SEC includes cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2), endocannabinoids (cannabinoids naturally produced by the body) and enzymes that synthesize and degrade these endocannabinoids.

• CB1 and CB2 receivers CB1 receptors are found mainly in the brain and central nervous system, while CB2 receptors are present in the immune system and peripheral tissues. CBD does not interact directly with these receptors, but influences their activity indirectly.
