The Endocannabinoid System
How CBD Effects Your Body Have you ever wondered how CBD affects your body? Then you first must learn about the endocannabinoid system. The endocannabinoid system is a system within your Central and Peripheral Nervous System. It behaves similarly to other endocrine systems within your body. The system relies on endocannabinoids, enzymes, and receptors. Whether or not you choose to Feel Good and try our Feel Good CBD gummies, this endocannabinoid system exists within your body. The endocannabinoid system exists in everyone. Endocannabinoid Components There are three main components to the endocannabinoid system: endocannabinoids (found in your body whether or not you utilize CBD), enzymes, and receptors. The receptors are found throughout your body but are mostly localized within your central and peripheral nervous systems. CB1 receptors are mostly found in the central nervous system (CNS) CB2 receptors are mostly found in the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Scientists have currently identified two main endocannabinoids (anandamide and 2-arachidonoylglycerol). These endocannabinoids link up with the receptors to affect your body in different ways. The enzymes within the system are then used to break down these bonded endocannabinoids to help excrete them from your body. ♦ Interested in high-quality CBD edibles?

CBD acts to help your body enhance the already active endocannabinoid system. CB1 receptors are found mainly in the nervous system; CB2 receptors are found mainly in immune cells.
