Cannabis is a flowering plant that blooms once a year. People use it for both fun and medical reasons. Cannabis plants are usually labelled as either indica or sativa, and they contain compounds called cannabinoids that have different effects on different people.

Here are the three most common types of cannabinoids: 

THC(Tetrahydrocannabinol)

– THC is the main cannabinoid in cannabis, and most of the psychoactive effects of cannabis are due to it.

CBD (Cannabidiol)

CBD is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid that is thought to help with both pain and stress. 

CBN (Cannabinol)

THC is older than CBN, and as it ages, it changes into CBN. CBN is known to make people sleepy when they take it.

The Entourage effect is the main idea behind medical marijuana. People think that when cannabinoids are taken in, they work together to provide a wide range of health benefits, such as pain relief, less worry, better sleep, and many others.
