What Is The
Endocannabinoid
System And Does It
Make Us Healthier?
Medical Marijuana Card San Francisco
The stigma that surrounds cannabis restricts us from looking at its
positive aspects. Not only do we forget that cannabis comes from a plant
but we also tend to ignore the future possibilities. Besides, over the years,
medical marijuana has treated several conditions related to the brain. As
a canna user, you might have treated several conditions with the help of a
medical marijuana doctor. But do you know the science behind it? Today,
through this write-up we will see what a medical marijuana expert has to
say about it. We will also read about the role of ECS and see how it can
help make us healthier
What isthe Endocannabinoid
System?
The endocannabinoid system controls an array of functions in the human
body. It controls several functions and keeps the immune system at its
peak. The human body makes its own cannabinoids and
phytocannabinoids from the cannabis plant interact with two primary
receptors – CB1 and CB2.
Now, the cannabis plants have two main cannabinoids famously known as
the CBD and THC. Furthermore, both these compounds work in tandem
with the receptors in the ECS. Mostly THC reacts with the receptors but
CBD has the power to alter the effects of THC. So, the ECS helps keep
the body fit and keeps a check over the internal functions of your body.
Does Feeding the ECS with
Cannabis Helps?
Your body is different from others. Similarly, the reactions of medical
marijuana vary from individual to individual. The receptors in the system
tend to combine with the dominated phytocannabinoids of the cannabis
plant. In turn, it causes a high and helps an individual relax. But that
euphoria is caused by the strains high in THC content. On the other hand,
CBD strains have the opposite effect. Especially strains like Charlotte’s
Web, are famous for treating conditions like epilepsy. This strain is 100%
CBD and hardly produces any side effects.
In addition to this, the ECS also forms a chain of reactions. After
you consume cannabis it will break down into divisions.
Subsequently, those divisions will cause another reaction and
reverse the effects of a specific condition. For example, if you are
suffering from insomnia, THC-infused products can help cause
relaxation. Whereasin the case of CBD products the reaction will be
opposite. It will not cause a high but help alleviate the symptoms of
your condition.
But you have to make sure that you take the dose as suggested by the
doctor. If the dose is higher than the recommended dose it can prove
fatal. Subsequently, feeding the ECS with a proper dose of medical
marijuana can make a whole lot of difference.
So, if you are taking the right dose and the right type of strain to
fight the diseases attacking your body, it is possible to develop a
healthy immune system. But make sure you have a medical mar iju ana
car d in San Fr ancis co or a card from the area you live in.
So, if you are taking the right dose and the right type of strain to
fight the diseases attacking your body, it is possible to develop a
healthy immune system. But make sure you have a
Different Waysto Consume
Cannabis?
Now, that you know all about the ECS and how can it keep us healthier.
It’s time to know what are the best ways to feed your ECS with cannabis.
But before that, make sure you have a medical marijuana card in your
possession. Most medical marijuana doctors will recommend the use of
tinctures and cannabis oil for conditions like inflammation and chronic
pain. But if you are highly sensitive to the use of cannabis, it is
recommended that you try a different alternative.
The most famous way to consume medical marijuana is in the form
of CBD oil. Pure CBD oil can help you fight several diseases.
Additionally, another method has been
introduced in the market of the cannabis
industry, known as the sublingual strips.
These strips are tiny and can be placed
directly under the tongue to produce
immediate effects.
Moreover, people still go with traditional
methods of consuming cannabis. From medicine to balms and tinctures – the
world of cannabis is open to several products. You can choose one according
to the requirement. So, how do you consume your cannabis, let us know in the
commentsection below.
