New Discovery About Cannabinoids & Gut Inflammation
Content
A new study from the scientists at the University of Massachusetts Medical School and the University of Bath have discovered the biological mechanism that explains how cannabinoids reduce intestinal inflammation.
We won't bore you with the details.
In summary, this new research reveals that endocannabinoids play a fundamental role in switching off the body's natural inflammation response in the gut.
Here's a quick side note about endocannabinoids:
If we break down the word, we can see that endo comes from endogenous which means internal origin and we add cannabinoid to it. So the literal translation of the word is cannabinoids of internal origin.
Yes, your body actually produces cannabinoids. Our body creates cannabinoids to promote a homeostasis environment in the body.
NOTE: believe it or not, our body creates the same cannabinoids as the cannabis plant.
A deficiency of cannabinoids prevents the body from doing its work.
It's simply missing the tools.
Once the body has enough cannabinoids, it's able to do what it does best, heal itself. All CBD and other cannabinoids do - provide the tools.
How cool!! Wohoo, so love this!!!
To prove this point, a number of studies have found that many patients suffering from IBD successfully use cannabis to manage a variety of symptoms from nausea to abdominal pain and I have friends who can testify about that!
