Question 6

What are cannabinoids, and how do they differ from one another?

Accepted Answer

A: Cannabinoids are the primary chemical compounds produced by the cannabis plant, with over 85 identified to date. The most well-known cannabinoid is THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), which is renowned for its psychoactive and recreational effects. Another prominent cannabinoid is CBD (cannabidiol), which, unlike THC, is non-intoxicating and does not produce a "high."

Question 7

What Are Terpenes

Accepted Answer

The cannabis plant doesn’t only produce cannabinoids – it is also known for its terpenes, which are chemicals responsible for the cannabis aroma. Terpenes are universally regarded as safe by authorities such as the FDA. Terpenes are often included in aromatherapies. Some common terpenes found in cannabis are pinene, limonene, and myrcene. There are in total over 140 terpenes that are naturally produced in cannabis.

Question 8

Question 13

What is CBC?

Accepted Answer

Cannabichromene (CBC) is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant, meaning it does not produce a “high” like THC. The CBC cannabinoid is one of several cannabinoids, including CBD and THC, that interact with the body’s endocannabinoid system, particularly the CB2 receptor. CBC starts as cannabichromenic acid (CBCA), which converts to its active form during the plant’s growth.
Unlike other cannabinoids, CBC does not bind directly to CB1 receptors in the brain, so it isn’t considered a psychoactive cannabinoid. Instead, it may enhance the effect of cannabichromene by working with other cannabinoids like CBD and boosting the body’s natural endocannabinoid anandamide without causing side effects.

The specific side effects of CBC are still unknown, but it’s likely similar to CBD oil and has been shown to be well-tolerated and safe in a few clinical trials.

Question 14

What is CBG?

Accepted Answer

Cannabigerol (CBG) is called the “mother of all cannabinoids,” a key component in the production of THC, CBD, and CBC, some of the most well-known chemicals in the plant.

Side effects and safety: CBG is generally well tolerated with minimal side effects, primarily when used in a pure form without THC. Reported side effects are mild and include dry mouth and sleepiness, mainly when THC is present in the product.

Question 15

What is CBN?

Accepted Answer

Cannabinol (CBN) is a common and weakly-psychoactive cannabinoid that is naturally present in cannabis and hemp plants.

Side effects: CBN is generally well-tolerated and non-impairing with few known side effects, mainly mild and described as enjoyable. Existing studies are outdated, pointing to a need for updated research to clarify any adverse effects.
