  8. Your own cannabis system

    In recent years studies have shown that your brain has a cannabis system, namely the endocannabinoid system. How does this work? You have neurons and neural circuits. Neurons are long cells that keep their distance from each other. This distance is bridged by. These travel from one cell to another and attach themselves to molecules. The molecules that they attach to are receptors. One of these neurotransmitters is the endocannabinoid. If we are scared, stressed or in pain, the endocannabinoid is released. The transmitter then travels to our endocannabinoid system to release the dust from weed and we get rid of the bad feeling!

  10. The effect of weed

    There are two types of marijuana: Sativa and Indica. The operation of both types is almost identical. The plants produce cannabinoids. The ones that get the most attention are delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, also known as THC, and cannabidiol (CBD). THC provides a psychoactive connection and ensures that sugar is broken down in your blood. This causes you to suffer from the well-known binge eating.
    CBD acts as an antagonist for the THC. This means that the functioning of the receptors are blocked. This is actually the exact opposite of what happens at THC. CBD reduces pain and muscle spasticity, and it can make you relax. Therefore, a CBD connection is often chosen for medical use.
