For decades, was listed as a Schedule I controlled substance 💊, meaning that it has a high potential for abuse and possesses no medical 🏥 benefits.
Much of the strict regulation was due to its close association with ma*****na 🌱 and our lack of understanding of the cannabis plants and CBD.
In the past decade, attitude towards plants started to shift. At the same time, research on the potential CBD benefits began to surface.
**p, a close cousin to *****na, is a low-THC (psychoactive compound that produces the ‘high’) variant of the cannabis plant. Even though h**p contains very little THC to cause a high, it was grouped with the rest of the cannabis plants in the controlled substance list, until 2018.
Finally, in 2018, the United States Farm Bill 📝 was passed that removed h**p-derived CBD from the Schedule I controlled substance list, and thus paving the way for CBD legalization.
To be considered legal under this bill, CBD must:
- Be sourced from industrial h**p
- Contain less than 0.3%
So the simple answer is YES, CBD IS FEDERALLY LEGAL. However, like most things in life, it’s a bit more complicated than that.
While the Farm Bill legalized CBD, it did little to outline how it should be regulated. The current CBD market is overseen by the FDA, but no clear rules have been established regarding its regulation.
As the CBD market continues its hot streak, we expect more clarity in the coming years.
