CBD vs. THC:

Legal Status In The World

The legality of both CBD and THC has been up for debate for quite a while. Apart from the nationwide debate (some may argue worldwide) on the legalization of marijuana, CBD's health benefits are still largely untapped due to FDA regulations. In fact, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has attempted several times, more recently in 2016, to classify both THC and CBD as Schedule I drugs under the U.S. Controlled Substances Act, meaning they have "no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse." Despite such resistance, the continued medical data and research continues to flood in in favor of legalizing components such as CBD for widespread use.

To Sum Up CBD and THC have some similarities and differences. First, they're both cannabinoids. They both have the exact same molecular structure: and they both interact with neurotransmitters in your brain. CBD and THC also both have psychoactive effects, they’ve both both been studied for medicinal use, and they both come from the cannabis plant. The differences are that CBD is non-psychotropic, meaning it can't get you high. In fact, CBD can even counter some of the unpleasant side effects that can come from too much THC consumption. That being said, the cannabinoids work well together and have the ability to enhance each other.
