Conditions

Cannabinoids work by targeting the endocannabinoid system (ECS), which helps control pain, mood, and inflammation. By affecting ECS receptors, cannabinoids like THC and CBD can help manage conditions like pain, anxiety, and inflammation. This makes cannabinoids a natural treatment option with fewer side effects than many traditional medicines.

Medical cannabis shows promise in addressing conditions affecting the nervous system.
