Endocannabinoid System, cont’d...

by Jasmine Harvey The Endocannabinoid System or ECS for short, is the backbone of regulation for your immune system, nervous system and organs. Due to the legalities of cannabis we are just now discovering many ways our ECS works. It is forever evolving.

It has been discovered that naturally occurring endocannabinoids produced by our bodies and also the brain signalers are essential to human physiological function. Functions such as bone growth, appetite, blood pressure, immunity, pain, and so much more. Our ECS is found throughout our body and not a central location.

Two key cannabinoids that are naturally produced by mammals bodies are Anandamide and 2-Arachidonoylglycerol. Anandamide is a fat messenger (neurotransmitting lipid) which could be described as the body’s own natural THC. For example if you ate a chocolate bar it would stimulate the production of anamide which heightens the sensation of joy. 2-Arachidonoylglycerol is responsible for playing an important role in regulating our immune system and appetite. With more widened research, it is also believed that this aids in killing unhealthy cells such as cancer. These two beautiful endocannabinoids aid in so much and regulate even more. How these two cannabinoids pass through the body is through our Cannabinoid CB1 and CB2 receptors. We will dive deeper into our CB1 and CB2 receptors coming next! The vast universe of Cannabis awaits! -Universe With Jaz
