The Endocannabinoid System: Nature’s Forgotten Regulator

The Endocannabinoid System: Nature’s Forgotten Regulator.
You’ve probably heard of the nervous system, digestive system, and immune system.But what if there’s another system — deeply intertwined with all of them — that’s been overlooked in modern medicine?
It’s called the endocannabinoid system (ECS) And unlocking its power could be the missing link to homeostasis, healing, and deep body balance.

What Is the Endocannabinoid System? The ECS is a built-in system discovered in the 1990s. It helps regulate:
Mood
Sleep
Appetite
Inflammation
Immune response
It includes:
Endocannabinoids

Produced by the body.
Receptors (CB1 and CB2 — located throughout the brain, gut, and immune system)
Enzymes that deactivate cannabinoids after use)]

Are We Deficient in Cannabinoids? Most of us are. Modern stress, food quality, and lack of plant-based cannabinoids contribute to what’s called Clinical Endocannabinoid Deficiency Syndrome. This can show up as:

Chronic stress or anxiety
Fibromyalgia or pain syndromes
Hormonal imbalance
Digestive issues
