What Is CBDV?

a graphic that asks "what is CBDv?"

CBDV is short for cannabidivarin, and like CBD (cannabidiol), it’s a compound found in cannabis plants. It’s non-psychoactive, so it doesn’t affect thinking or make you feel “high” unlike THC.

Research is still needed on CBDV and its effects on the body. However, early studies suggest that it may help alleviate things like swelling and inflammation, pain, seizures, and other health conditions. Check out Forbidden V, a powerhouse strain, with high levels of both CBD and CBDV enhancing performance, energy, and recovery.

CBDV vs. CBD

Both CBDV and CBD are cannabinoids or compounds that naturally occur in cannabis sativa plants. Preliminary research suggests that both cannabinoids may offer similar health benefits like reduced inflammation, stress, and pain. Both compounds have nearly identical molecular structures.

CBD is a major cannabinoid — there’s plenty of it in cannabis, and it’s relatively easy to extract. But CBDV is a minor cannabinoid — there’s less of it that naturally occurs in cannabis, so it’s more difficult to extract large quantities.

As well, even though more research is needed, CBDV may have special anticonvulsant properties that may help manage serious seizure disorders. Find out more about what is the difference between CBD and CBDv?

CBDV Effects

First and foremost, more research is needed to understand CBDV better and understand how it works. However, early studies suggest that it may offer the same or similar health benefits as CBD, like helping with stress, inflammation, pain, sleep, appetite, and so on. What makes CBDV stand out, though, is its anticonvulsant properties, which researchers are still observing with regard to whether it may help with seizures.

Where Is CBDV found?

Like CBD and other cannabinoids, CBDV is a naturally-occuring compound in cannabis plants. CBDV is a minor cannabinoid, so it occurs in smaller quantities than major cannabinoids like CBD or THC. However, Indica strains tend to have more CBDV than sativa strains.
