CBD & The Endocannabinoid System

Are you looking for the endocannabinoid system explained? We explore the science behind the biological system and its relationship to CBD.

Did you know that there is a major regulatory system in our bodies, comprised of receptors that interact exclusively with cannabinoids, such as CBD? This system is called the Human Endocannabinoid System (ECS). Scientific research reveals that the ECS is a major regulator of balance in nearly every system of the body — affecting your mood, sleep, memory, appetite, digestive system, pain sensation, and immunity.

[We will mention them, of course — they are the two last items on our list]. But… Did you

Every human possesses this advanced physiological system that is already making cannabinoid-like structures that foster cellular balance throughout nearly every biological system in the body. Research seems to indicate that the ECS might function more properly and efficiently through the introduction of hemp-derived cannabinoids like CBD.

The endocannabinoid system regulates sleep, mood and sex drive. Scientists are now beginning to discover it's true complexity and how it works.

The ECS functions as a vast network that affects mood, memory, motor control, immune function, reproduction, pain perception, appetite, sleep, and bone development. The system has four primary purposes: neuroprotection, stress recovery, immune balance, and homeostatic regulation. ⠀
