There are hundreds: Of different chemicals in marijuana, just as there are in tobacco. But the main psychoactive substances are really two - thc (tetrahydrocannabinol) and cbd - cannabidiol. Thc is the main chemical that produces the mind-altering effects of marijuana - mild euphoria, stimulation, some sedation, altered time sense, as well as increased appetite, and cbd may have the anti-nausea and other effects.
