The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is an internal bodily system that is responsible for promoting the balance and harmony of many aspects such as the immune system, appetite, sleep, pain, mood and more.

The ECS is very complex but mainly consists of a network of receptors in the body, known as cannabinoid receptors, and endocannabinoids, which are produced by the body and react with these receptors.

Interestingly, many cannabinoids present in full spectrum products can interact with our cannabinoid receptors and influence the function of the ECS. Many scientists believe that this is the mechanism that many CBD/CBG benefits may come from.
