I’ll be honest, when I first heard about the Endocannabinoid System (ECS) about 8 months ago, I thought it was just a smart pothead’s way of justifying their cannabis use. Surely if our bodies were created with this specific system I would’ve heard about it before I was 32, right? Wrong. Which kind of tells you everything you need to know about Big Pharma, doesn’t it? 🙃 When I realized it wasn’t just some made up concept I went into full-throttle research mode (much like when I was formally diagnosed with a serotonin deficiency in college and spent most of my free time researching neurobiology to better understand my broken brain.)
But anyway, back to the ECS.
