Key Findings:  This study showed that in intestinal epithelium cells cannabidiol (CBD) reduced intestinal inflammation, and oxidation by restoring epithelial permeability, more so than THC, CBDA, and THCA. This suggests a potential therapeutic use of CBD in the treatment and management of intestinal bowel disease (IBD).
