Bipartisan bill would OK CBD in food, supplements

Here is another version of Josh Long’s article — this has additional quotes and explains things very well right from the very beginning of the article:

Key Excerpt:

Legislation was unveiled Jan. 13 in the U.S. House of Representatives to allow hemp-based CBD to be marketed in dietary supplements and conventional food.

House Bill 5587 would:

include hemp-derived CBD in the definition of a dietary supplement;

create an exception for CBD to a “prohibited act” in Section 301(ll) of the Federal Food, Drug & Cosmetic Act (FDCA), which essentially bars the introduction of a food first studied as a drug; and

require the Agriculture Secretary, “in consultation with other relevant federal and state agencies,” to “complete a study on the market and regulatory barriers for producers operating under the domestic hemp production program specified” in USDA regulations.
