CBD, or cannabidiol, is a compound found in the hemp plant that has the power to interact with one of your body’s lesser-known systems: the endocannabinoid system (ECS).
Although biology classes and textbooks have long overlooked the significance of the ECS, it’s actually one of the most important bodily systems.
The job of the ECS is to maintain balance in the eleven other systems of the body such as the nervous, immune, and digestive systems.
CBD binds to receptors in the endocannabinoid system, helping it to maintain optimal performance. When the ECS is functioning at its best, it’s able to help the other systems do the same. As a result, you feel a difference in your overall health, your state of mind and your ability to deal with stress in your life.
Because the ECS works with all of the different systems of the body, taking CBD can have a wide range of benefits. If you feel stressed, helping your body find homeostasis via adequate support of the ECS can change that. If your body feels stiff and lacks the mobility you desire, improving the functionality of the ECS can help that. A better functioning ECS can change your wellness in a number of ways.
CBD is a tool that we can use to optimize our health and wellness. It’s wide-reaching effects on the body allow you to experience a host of benefits for a solid foundation for a lifetime of health.
