CANNABIS ENDOCANNABINOIDS

According to research studies, the endocannabinoid system features an array of promising therapeutic effects. While the body produces endocannabinoids, there are also numerous cannabinoids in the cannabis (marijuana & hemp) plant... The most popular cannabinoids are cannabidiol (CBD) and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), both of which are psychoactive. These compounds also bind to cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2) and also have the same effects as endocannabinoids. THC is the compound responsible for the intoxicating/psychotoxic effects people experience after consuming marijuana. CBD, on the other hand, does not produce an intoxicating effect (not to be confused with psychoactive).
