Common Cannabis Misconceptions
Yasmin Hurd, PhD, is featured on podcast "Therapy for Black Girls" regarding common cannabis misconceptions. She said, “One of the things that’s important to know about CBD, is that it doesn’t bind to the cannabinoid receptor like THC. It actually works as an antagonist to block some of the THC effects. We’re [still] trying to figure out how CBD acts on the brain, but we do know that instead of having this big effect it has small effects and perhaps those small effects is why we don’t see that CBD has really bad side effects that are sometimes seen with THC.”
