The Food and Drug Administration is set to take its first step Friday toward regulating cannabidiol, or CBD.
The CBD product craze — with its myriad oils, capsules, gummies, lotions and potions — has exploded into a frenzy never before seen in the supplement industry.
On Friday, the FDA will hold its first public hearing on cannabis and cannabis-derived compounds, the most popular of which is CBD.
The goal of the hearing is to gather information on a wide range of topics related to products containing these compounds. Dozens of interested parties are scheduled to speak, including doctors, consumers and members of the cannabis industry.
