What is Cannabis?
Cannabis, also known as marijuana, is a flowering plant that has been used for medicinal and recreational purposes for centuries. The plant contains over 100 chemical compounds called cannabinoids, with the two most well-known being THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol). THC is responsible for the psychoactive effects associated with cannabis, while CBD is non-psychoactive and is believed to offer a range of therapeutic benefits.

The Endocannabinoid System
To truly understand how cannabis interacts with our bodies, it’s essential to know about the endocannabinoid system (ECS). The ECS is a complex network of receptors found throughout the body that helps regulate various functions, including:
- Mood: The ECS plays a role in regulating emotions and stress responses.
- Sleep: Cannabinoids can influence sleep patterns and quality.
- Appetite: The ECS helps control hunger and satiety signals.
- Pain: Cannabinoids have been shown to have analgesic properties, helping to manage pain.
- Inflammation: The ECS is involved in regulating inflammatory responses in the body.
When cannabinoids from cannabis interact with the ECS, they can help modulate these functions, leading to potential therapeutic benefits. At Starlife Dispensary, our knowledgeable staff is always ready to guide you through the various strains and products that may best suit your needs.
