Cannabis 101
When cannabis is consumed, cannabinoids bind to receptor sites throughout our brain receptors called CB1 and body CB2. Different cannabinoids have different effects depending on which receptors they bind to. For example, THC binds to receptors in the brain whereas CBN (cannabinol) has a strong affinity for CB-2 receptors located throughout the body. By aiming the right cannabinoid at the right receptors, different types of relief are achievable.
This concept is the cornerstone of cannabis as medicine, and the results are so promising that these cannabinoids have been synthesized for legal prescription use.
Cannabis contains at least 66 types of cannabinoids, many of which have documented medical value. Products and strains have been developed to deliver larger doses of different cannabinoids, so knowing which types best treat your symptoms is a handy piece of knowledge to bring to your next dispensary visit
What Are Cannabinoids?
One hefty word that belongs in every cannabis user vocabulary is cannabinoid. Cannabinoids (e.g., THC and CBD) are the chemical compounds secreted by cannabis owners that are known to cause relief to an array of symptoms including pain, nausea, and inflammation. They work their magic by imitating compounds our bodies naturally produce, called endocannabinoids, which activate to maintain internal stability and health. put a complex system simply, they mediate communication between cells, and when there is a deficiency or problem with our endocannabinoid system, unpleasant symptoms and physical complications occur.
