Cannabis is a plant that has been used for thousands of years for medicinal, recreational, and industrial purposes. The plant contains various compounds, known as cannabinoids, which interact with the body’s endocannabinoid system to produce a range of effects.
The two most well-known cannabinoids are THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol). While THC is responsible for the psychoactive effects (the “high”) commonly associated with cannabis, CBD offers therapeutic benefits without the intoxicating effects.
Cannabis comes in many forms, each offering different experiences and ways to consume.
Here’s a quick rundown of the most popular forms:

How it’s used: Smoked in joints, blunts, pipes, or bongs, or vaporized using a vape pen.
