CBD vs THC Tinctures

In short, CBD tinctures are usually derived from hemp and not derived from marijuana, while a THC tincture is derived from marijuana. Keep in mind that both CBD and THC are cannabinoids…

CBD and THC have many of the same medical benefits. They can provide relief from several of the same conditions. However, CBD doesn’t cause the euphoric effects that occur with THC. Some people may prefer to use CBD because of the lack of this side effect.
