Why Is CBD Everywhere?

NY Times (10/27/2018)
  • Cannabidiol (CBD) is an abundant chemical found in cannabis that’s gaining mainstream popularity from being infused with oils, lotions, ice cream, and drinks.
  • Unlike well-known cannabis chemical byproduct THC, CBD only produces a physical (not mind-altering) high.
  • CBD is also infused in capsules as a non-addictive, non-psychotic alternative to anxiety and depression medications.
  • NYU Medicine Professor Dr Esther Blessing deemed CBD “the most promising drug for neuropsychiatric diseases in the last 50 years”.
