CBD vs. THC: What’s the Difference and Why It Matters

There’s a lot of confusion around CBD and THC—two of the most well-known cannabinoids. Here’s what you need to know:

CBD (Cannabidiol)

  • Non-psychoactive (won’t get you high)

  • Legal in the U.S. when derived from hemp

  • Used for anxiety, pain, inflammation, and sleep

THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol)

  • Psychoactive (produces a high)

  • Found in higher amounts in marijuana

  • Legal status varies by state

How They Work Together

In full-spectrum CBD products (like those from Glenna’s), trace amounts of THC are included to boost CBD’s effectiveness through the entourage effect—without causing intoxication.

Why It Matters

Understanding the difference helps you choose the right product for your needs and ensures you’re comfortable with the legal and therapeutic effects of what you’re taking.
