CBD oil is a natural product derived from the cannabis plant, specifically from the hemp variety. It contains cannabidiol (CBD), a compound known for its potential therapeutic benefits without the psychoactive effects associated with THC, another compound found in cannabis. People often use CBD oil for various reasons, including managing anxiety, pain relief, and improving sleep. The oil is typically extracted from the plant's flowers and leaves and can be consumed in various forms, such as tinctures, capsules, or topical applications. While many users report positive effects, scientific research is still ongoing to fully understand its benefits and potential side effects.
