CBD's effects on the body stem from its interaction with the endocannabinoid system.
The body already has its own naturally-produced cannabinoids, endocannabinoids, that circulate and interact with the ECS. Since these cannabinoids are working overtime all the time, they sometimes need a boost.
When CBD is introduced into the body, it interacts with the endocannabinoid system by activating endocannabinoids receptors: cannabidiol-1 (CB1) and cannabidiol-2 (CB2).
CBD oil helps maintain an optimal level of homeostasis or natural balance, that the ECS works so hard to keep balance. Without this equalizing balance, the biological processes that the ECS is involved with can be thrown off track. Thus, ailments and disease, amongst other health issues, can ensue.
Fortunately, with the help of CBD, homeostasis can be maintained! Thus, encouraging a level of balance of bodily processes, optimal health, and energy flow. Sounds like a win!
