Endocannabinoid System

The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is made up of an array of endocannabinoid receptors located in the cells, that interact with both the phytocannabinoids found in marijuana (THC, CBD, CBN, CBC…), and endocannabinoids, the molecules produced by our own body (anandamide, 2-AG…).

The endocannabinoid system's main receptors are CB1 and CB2; CB1 receptors are more prevalent in some areas of the brain (although they are also found in other organs), and CB2 receptors are located in the immune system cells, as well as other areas like the central nervous system. The whole of these receptors interacting with the endocannabinoids is what we know as the endocannabinoid system, whose function is to maintain “homeostasis”, or in other words, the balance of all the body's functions.
