What is CBD, what is it used for, is it safe, and is it legal?

It's some kinda medicine, or drug, right?

Answer:

CBD or cannabidiol is a natural, organic substance from the Cannabid sativa plant. This substance can by used as a healing oil, medicine and a drug. If used correctly, CBD is a safe and accurate substance to use. CBD is illegal in some parts of the world and prohibited in national armed forces. Even though it's supposed to be a healthy resource, people have made the substance into normal drug for smoking, vaping and alcohol...which is a large reason of why it is illegal in most places.

Hoped this helped! :)

CBD is a very active compound found in the cannabis plant. It’s mostly used for anxiety, insomnia, and pain relief. It isn’t as safe as you would think. It has some (non-proven) benefits but can also cause harm to your liver and nervous system. purchasing CBD is federally legal as long as it doesn't contain more than 0.3 percent THC.
It technically can be used as a medicine but classified as a drug. Hope this helps!:)
