What is the ECS?

CBD interacts with a series of receptors in our bodies, known as the Endocannabinoid System (ECS). CBD is absorbed into your cells and reacts with the body's ECS, which in turn interacts with various receptors in the brain, organs, muscles, tissues, and nerves to help maintain homeostasis.

The ECS also influences the state of immunity and enables a feedback system for almost all neurological functions, and this relationship between CBD and the ECS potentially indicates that CBD may offer patients a myriad of wellness benefits.

Endocannabinoids

Endocannabinoids Vs. Phytocannabinoids

Endogenous cannabinoids, which are molecules made by your body.
Examples include:
anandamide (AEA)
2-arachidonoylglyerol (2-AG)
Enzymes also play a role in the ECS, breaking down the cannabinoids.
The two big enzymes are FAAH, which breaks down anandamide, and MAGL, which breaks down 2-AG.

What is CBD?

Cannabidiol is a Popular Natural Remedy Used For Many Common Ailments

Better known as CBD, it is one of more than 100 chemical compounds called cannabinoids that are found in the cannabis plant, Cannabis sativa.

Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the main psychoactive cannabinoid found in cannabis, which means it causes the sensation of getting high that’s often associated with cannabis.

However, Unlike THC, CBD is Not Psychoactive.

This quality makes CBD an appealing option for those who are looking for relief from pain and other symptoms without the mind-altering effects of cannabis or other side effects related to some pharmaceutical drugs.

CBD oil is made by extracting CBD from the cannabis plant and then diluting it with a carrier oil like coconut oil or hemp seed oil. CBD can be found in a variety of products online and in stores, including dietary supplements, bath soaks, drinks, and food.
