From THC to CBD

1
From THC to CBD

• Differences and Similarities!

2
What are Cannabinoids?

• Cannabinoids is a class of over 113 chemical
  compounds found in the plant Cannabis Sativa.
  It is mostly known for its two major compounds
  i.e. tetrahydrocannabinol aka THC and cannabidiol
  aka CBD.

3
Human Body Reaction to Cannabinoids

• The human body has naturally occurring similar
  compounds. These naturally occurring compounds
  have receptors all over the body, including the
  nervous system, the digestive system and the
  reproductive system.

4

• When cannabinoids enter the human body, taking an
  advantage of similar chemical shape and shadow,
  they activate the cell receptors to generate a
  biological response. They have an ability to
  affect almost every vital organ i.e. the central
  nervous system, the digestive tract and the
  reproductive organs in both ways negative and
  positive.

5
Endocannabinoid System

• All these receptors combine to form the
  Endocannabinoid System (ECS). It is responsible
  for many functions like pain relief, depression,
  anxiety and food cravings etc.

6
Why the Confusion?

• Both compounds are cousins but they possess very
  different attributes. THC contains the notorious
  psychoactive ingredients which can evoke the
  feelings of highness in the user. This compound
  is the reason behind the illegalization of the
  marijuana. With few medicinal benefits, it is
  mostly used for the sake of recreational
  purposes.

7

• Having an ability to affect the receptors, it is
  very easy for THC to alter ones mental state and
  to the precious endocannabinoid system (ECS), it
  does more harm than good.
• While CBD turned out to be a poly-pharmaceutical
  advantageous compound, having benefits in almost
  every severe illness from arthritis to cancer. It
  can, because it has an effective access to the
  endocannabinoid system (ECS), just like THC.

8

• Unlike THC, CBD strengthens the ECS and uses the
  receptor awakening qualities in a positive
  manner. Due to this very reason, CBD is legal in
  many countries around the world.

9
How CBD effects the ECS vs How THC effects the
ECS?
10

• CBD has an ability to induce normalcy in anxiety
  patients. By activating the serotonin system, it
  can decrease feelings of anxiousness. Also helps
  in treating obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD),
  social anxiety disorder, post-traumatic stress
  disorder and panic disorder.
• On the other hand, THC can cause adverse effects
  to the condition and increase the anxiety to a
  drastic level. It has a record of inducing
  amplified paranoia and nervousness.

11
Anesthetics

• CBD is known for its pain-relieving properties.
  It has an ability to activate the receptors in
  the body which manage the relief of pain and
  inflammation. It has been declared safe due to
  its non-addictiveness and secure use, hence using
  CBD cannot promote substance abuse.
• On the other hand, although THC also offers pain
  relief for a short time period as it will make
  you forget anything, it leads to drug abuse which
  is highly prohibited and dangerous for mental and
  body health.

12
Nausea and Vomiting

• CBD has a relieving effect on gut inflammation.
  Its effects on the ECS regulates the affected
  body metabolism. While THC has an opposite effect
  on the digestive tract and liver metabolism. It
  can cause nausea and vomiting.
