Cannabidiol (CBD) is the second-most common cannabinoid found in cannabis—trailing only behind tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), though the availability of such products can seem limited in Canada.
High-CBD products are desirable for their non-intoxicating effects and can benefit consumers needing to keep a clear head while also controlling pain, inflammation, or other chronic conditions.
