The Endocannabinoid System: Where Was This In Our Biology Book?

Summary

The secret is out: the battle is on for civilization to recognize cannabis, also known as marijuana, as the next super-drug. What captivates me is our body's inherent system that utilizes endocannabinoids, compounds found in plants like marijuana. My interest in endocannabinoids began with their role in creating the "runner's high," familiar to all long-distance and endurance athletes. As I delved deeper into this system, initially out of curiosity about its effects from prolonged running, I discovered a wealth of positive information that often goes unnoticed. Join me in exploring this fascinating system, which makes our immune system seem minor in comparison. I am a certified professional trainer by the National Federation of Professional Trainers, certification number 45582.
