Endocannabinoid System
The Endo-cannabinoid System (ECS) is a biological system of
receptors and neurotransmitters in the brain, nervous system,
organs, glands, immune cells and connective tissue. A healthy

Endocannabinoids are produced naturally inside your body.
Phytocannabinoids are produced in nature and at higher levels in the

diet through Hemp and Hemp Seed based foods). Whereupon the
phytocannabinoids will mimic your missing endocannabinoids. That’s
why a well balanced diet will include hemp seed oil and full plant
spectrum foods or supplements.
