Today we’re discussing the Endocannabinoid System. If you haven’t read our introductory guide to the ECS. I highly recommend you go give that a read prior to doing a deep dive into the ECS, it’s cannabinoid receptors and what cannabinoids bond to what receptors.  Endocannabinoid System (ECS): The ECS is a complex cell-signaling system in the human body that plays a crucial role in regulating various physiological processes, including mood, memory, appetite, and pain sensation.

Different Cannabinoids: Different cannabinoids have varying affinities for CB1 and CB2 receptors. For example, THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) has a high affinity for CB1 receptors, which contributes to its psychoactive effects. CBD (cannabidiol) has a low affinity for both CB1 and CB2 receptors, but it can modulate their activity indirectly.
