The cannabis industry is undergoing a true metamorphosis. There has never been such a wide range of products derived from the plant. A few years ago, consumers were barely familiar with one of its main cannabinoids, cannabidiol (CBD).

Today, it has become one of the biggest driving forces in the cannabis market, thanks in part to the many studies that have confirmed its therapeutic potential. As a result, it has not only attracted a new group of users seeking relief from their ailments without psychoactive effects, but it has also convinced several governments to decriminalize it.

CBD (cannabidiol), one of the main cannabinoids derived from cannabis, has numerous therapeutic qualities without psychoactive effects. It is completely legal to consume in Spain and therefore has many applications within the medical and pharmaceutical sectors in our country.

Thus, CBD oil is used as a dietary supplement, topical remedy, or pharmacological treatment for the relief of chronic pain, inflammation in intestinal or skin inflammatory diseases, anxiety, depression, or to reduce the severity and frequency of seizures in epilepsy.

The WHO states about the use of CBD that:

“It is neither addictive nor harmful to health and has numerous therapeutic properties.”

In the educational video by the CANNA Foundation accompanying this information, the main characteristics and benefits of this highly important cannabinoid are briefly described.
