The Louisiana House of Representatives on Tuesday amended a bill seeking to legalize growing hemp in the state to also include legalizing the sale of CBD oil.
CBD, like hemp, is derived from the cannabis plant but has a miniscule amount of THC, which is what gets marijuana users high.
CBD products have been in a legal gray area, in that stores permitted by the Louisiana Office of Alcohol and Tobacco Control have not been allowed to sell it but other stores have.
