The hemp plant, domesticated more than 6000 years ago in China, produces more than 400 organic compounds. The two main groups of molecules with bioactive properties in hemp are terpenes and cannabinoids - CBD belongs to the latter category.

Cannabinoids are compounds that influence the human nervous system through the endocannabinoid system (SEC). The hemp plant contains dozens of cannabinoids, with THC, CBD and CBG being the most common. They differ in their chemical structure and their effects.

CBD is considered to have many therapeutic applications and is also consumed as a daily food supplement to promote homeostasis. While beneficial for general well-being, CBD does not have the psychotropic properties of its cousin, THC.
