What’s the difference between CBD and medical marijuana?

 The difference between CBD and medical marijuana lies primarily in their composition, effects, and legal classification, and at Greenlight Wellness Export, we help patients understand these distinctions to make informed health decisions.

CBD, is a non-psychoactive compound found in the cannabis plant, meaning it does not produce the “high” commonly associated with marijuana. It is typically derived from hemp, a variety of cannabis with low THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) content, and is used to manage conditions like anxiety, inflammation, epilepsy, and chronic pain without altering mental clarity.

Medical marijuana, on the other hand, refers to the use of the whole cannabis plant or its extracts — including THC and CBD for therapeutic purposes.

THC is the psychoactive component that can alter perception and mood, and in medical marijuana, the THC content is higher to treat conditions such as severe pain, nausea from chemotherapy, muscle spasms, and loss of appetite in chronic illness.

At Greenlight Wellness Export, we advocate for patient-specific guidance to ensure safe, legal, and effective use of cannabinoid therapies. Read more…….

How has medical cannabis helped your life?

  Medical cannabis has provided effective relief without the harsh side effects of opioids. People suffering from anxiety, PTSD, or depression have found cannabis especially CBD-rich formulations to help calm the mind, reduce intrusive thoughts, and promote emotional balance, often when traditional medications failed or caused adverse effects. Cancer patients have used cannabis to manage chemotherapy-induced nausea, stimulate appetite, and relieve pain, improving their strength and outlook during grueling treatments. Medical cannabis has shown remarkable results in reducing seizure frequency and severity. These improvements often lead to a greater sense of autonomy, peace, and hope.
