The Endocannabinoid System (ECS) is an internal system within the human body responsible for maintaining balance and homeostasis.
It regulates various physiological processes and functions, such as learning and memory, emotional processing, sleep, pain control, appetite, inflammatory and immune responses.
The body has an internal system known as the Endocannabinoid System (ECS) responsible for maintaining balance and homeostasis. ECS receptors are located throughout the body, and endocannabinoids help regulate and maintain the functions of these systems. When imbalances occur, or whenever something goes wrong in the body, it can be considered like an endocannabinoid system dysfunction. The ECS plays a crucial role in restoring the body to its optimal state. In such cases, cannabinoids from external sources can bind to the faulty receptors, helping to restore their proper function.
The human body has two receptors for cannabinoids the CB1 and CB2 receptors. Although both are found all over the body, CB1 receptors are present in the brain and deal with pain, movement, cognitive function, and mood. CB2 receptors are more common in the immune system and affect pain and inflammation, among other things. THC attaches to the CB1 receptors, whereas CBD interacts with the CB2 receptors. Unlike THC which attaches to receptors, CBD does not attach to the CB2 receptor. Rather, researchers believe that CBD influences the body’s use of endocannabinoids (promoting homeostasis).
Cannabinoids are chemical compounds produced by the cannabis plant. The human body (and the bodies of all vertebrates) produce endocannabinoids, while cannabinoids found in plants are called phytocannabinoids. Cannabinoids interact with the body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS) to promote homeostasis.
CBD has many beneficial properties and is used to promote wellness. CBD has not been approved by the FDA, so CBD companies cannot make health claims. However, the top reasons why our customers use CBD is to help them achieve their wellness goals.
Cannabidiol (better known as CBD), is one of 113 naturally occurring cannabinoid compounds found in Cannabis, an annual herbaceous flowering plant (Cannabis sativa).
So now you know what CBD is—but not all CBD is created equal. CBD can come in 3 forms:
