What is the Endocannabinoid System?

We are “hardwired” with a master control system called the Endocannabinoid System (ECS). The ECS is made up of cell receptors that that act as messengers, giving your body specific directions on how to function. Some of these messengers are located in the brain and the spinal cord. Others are located in the immune cells, the gastrointestinal tract and everything outside the brain and spinal cord. The diversity of receptor locations shows that how important they are for the day-to-day bodily functions.
 

WHY IS THE ECS IMPORTANT?

The ECS helps in regulating:

ANXIETY
APPETITE/HUNGER
DEPRESSION
DIGESTION
IMMUNE FUNCTIONS
MEMORY
MOOD

 


 

MOTOR CONTROL
PAIN
PLEASURE & REWARD
REPRODUCTION & FERTILITY
SLEEP
TEMPERATURE

 
Endocannabinoids are the chemical messengers that tell your body to get these processes moving and when to stop. They also help maintain optimal balance in the body, know as homeostasis.

If your body does not produce enough endocannabinoids or cannot regulate them properly, you are more susceptible to illnesses that affect one of more of the functions listed above. External sources of cannaboinoids (non-psychoactive full spectrum hemp) like CBD can help regulate your ECS to improve health.
