What is CBD?

“CBD stands for cannabidiol, and is the major cannabinoid compound in hemp,” explains Dr. Andrea Holmes. “Hemp flowers have really amazing little pockets called trichomes, which are filled with a lot of great components including cannabinoids such as CBD, but there are also a lot of other things in there. They also contain minor cannabinoids in trace quantities, as well as the terpenes that give the hemp their wonderful aroma. Flavonoids, proteins, fats and sugars are all also contained within the hemp flower, and are what makes the plant so rich.”
