CBD cigarette

A CBD cigarette is a cigarette made with hemp rather than purely tobacco. It contains cannabidiol but only a negligible amount of the psychoactive compound THC. Sellers position it as an alternative to a tobacco cigarette because most of these products contain no nicotine. The article notes that burning any plant material still produces tar and other harmful by-products, and that a laboratory study of commercial hemp cigarettes found carbonyl compounds in the smoke, so the product is not risk free. Legal treatment differs by country: the lead cites Switzerland, where products under one percent THC may be sold and a supermarket chain was reported to be stocking them as of 2022, and the United States, where the 2018 Farm Bill permits hemp products below 0.3 percent THC while other food and drug rules still apply.
