The body’s balancing system: Meet the ECS
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a natural part of the human body — like the immune or nervous system. Its main job? To keep everything in balance. From mood and memory to appetite, pain, and sleep, the ECS plays a role in regulating the body’s most essential functions. CBD works by supporting this system, helping it function more smoothly and respond to internal or external stress.
3 core functions of the ECS:
Regulates internal stability
The ECS helps maintain “homeostasis” — the internal balance your body constantly works to protect.
