What is the Endocannabinoid System
First discovered in the 1990s; endocannabinoids were found in the human body. These cannabis identical substances are naturally produced by the human body. Scientists studied the cannabinoids vigorously and concluded that the effects of cannabis are a product of the cannabinoids mimicking our endocannabinoid makeup.
The main function of the endocannabinoid system
It’s not magic. It’s simple and natural. This system exists to maintain bodily homeostasis. It is the body’s way to create balance and to maintain it in harmony during environmental changes and through age changing. This newly discovered system has taxonomic evidence that it has evolved over a 500-million-year span. Biologists have found the endocannabinoid system to be present in all vertebrates which include amphibians, birds, fish, and mammals.
Endocannabinoid Science Changes – All Science Does
This means the answer to, “What is the Endocannabinoid System,” will change and evolve, and that it is likely doing so presently. It was initially thought that endocannabinoid receptors were only present in the brain and in nerves. Through more thorough research it was discovered that the receptors are present throughout the body.
Our skin, immune cells, bone, fat tissue, liver, pancreas, skeletal muscle, blood vessels, kidneys, and gastrointestinal tract all have cannabinoids to help regulate their respective systems.
That’s broad – And we still have much (if not the majority) to learn
This wide range of influence means that the Endocannabinoid system is involved in a wide variety of processes, including: memory, mood, appetite, rest, metabolism, immune function, and reproductive function. Endocannabinoids are arguably one of the most widespread and versatile signaling molecules known to man.
What is the role of the Endocannabinoid System?
The endocannabinoid system is important in the function of the brain, endocrine, and immune tissues. It has strong evidence that it plays an especially important regulatory role of hormones relating to reproductive functions and mood response. In humans, this system also balances energy and influences the function of the food intake centers of the central nervous system and gastrointestinal tract activity.
Minor Cannabinoid Research
Rimonabant, a cannabinoid-1 receptor (CB1) blocker, has been shown to reduce body weight and improve an individual’s cardiovascular risk factor in the obese by increasing HDL-cholesterol and adiponectin blood levels as well as decreasing LDL-cholesterol, leptin, and C-reactive protein concentrations. This is why it is so hard to answer, “what is the endocannabinoid system.”
