TUPELO, Miss. (WTVA) - A local business is hoping to educate the public about the legal uses of cannabidiol or CBD.

Prescotts CBD Tupelo offers several CBD products.

According to the store's owner, Corrie Linton, hemp extract can help consumers get off of opioids or help those suffering from depression or post-traumatic stress disorder.

"We're completely legal," Linton said. "There's no THC in any of our products except for the hemp flower that we now carry in our store, and it is federally and state legal at the three percent or below level."

Linton added that business in Tupelo has been successful so far.
