Cannabinoids are natural substances which can only be found in hemp. One hemp plant contains about 500 organic compounds and about 85 of them can be classified into the group of cannabinoids. So, what are cannabinoids exactly?
Some cannabinoids are psychoactive, and some are not, but the best results are achieved only if all the cannabinoids work together.
The most known cannabinoids
Of all the cannabinoids, there are only these two are most known: tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). Even though THC has healing effects, it is psychoactive, at the same time it is psychoactive and a higher dosage can cause anxiety and paranoia. CBD is not a psychoactive cannabinoid but it does have calming effects and helps to cure different types of inflammations and neurological illnesses.

The Endocannabinoid system
The Endocannabinoid system exists for about 600 million years and was developed even before the Dinosaur era. Since then it is constantly developing and it is present in all animal species. That is why all living organisms, including humans and animals, are capable of absorbing these cannabinoids, which are found only in hemp plants, thanks to the CB1 receptors which are a part of the brain and neurological system and CB2 receptors which are building blocks of the immunity system.
The Endocannabinoid system has a key influence in supporting several important functions of the body, reproduction, emotions, sleep and food intake.
Cannabinoids work in synergy, meaning altogether, and therefore synthetically produced cannabinoids which are usually on sale in pharmacies are not really efficient. It is necessary to use them in a complex way (seeds, hemp oil from seeds, CBD extract, etc.) so that their healing effects on our health can be absorbed fully.
