The botanist Li Hui-lin noted linguistic evidence that the "stupefying effect of the hemp plant was commonly known from extremely early times"; the word ma "cannabis; hemp" has connotations of "numbed; tingling; senseless" (e.g., mamu 麻木 "numb" and mazui 麻醉 "anesthetic; narcotic"), which "apparently derived from the properties of the ...
Hemp seeds are notable in providing 64% of the Daily Value (DV) of protein per 100-gram serving. [20] The three main proteins in hemp seeds are edestin (83% of total protein content), albumin (13%) and ß-conglycinin (up to 5%). [25] [23] Hemp seed proteins are highly digestible compared to soy proteins when untreated (unheated).
The plant is also known as hemp, although this term is usually used to refer only to varieties cultivated for non-drug use. Hemp has long been used for fibre, seeds and their oils, leaves for use as vegetables, and juice. Industrial hemp textile products are made from cannabis plants selected to produce an abundance of fibre.
[4] [19] CBD does not have the same psychoactivity as THC, [24] [25] and can modulate the psychoactive effects of THC on the body if both are present. [16] [24] [26] [27] Conversion of CBD to THC can occur when CBD is heated to temperatures between 250–300 °C, potentially leading to its partial transformation into THC. [28]

CBN was the first cannabis compound to be isolated from cannabis extract in the late 1800s. Its structure and chemical synthesis were achieved by 1940 [34], followed by some of the first pre-clinical research studies to determine the effects of individual cannabis-derived compounds in vivo. [35]
