3. Why the Endocannabinoid System Matters
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) plays a role in regulating:
• stress response
• mood balance
• sleep cycles
• nervous system signaling
Research suggests cannabinoids like CBD may interact with receptors involved in serotonin signaling and stress regulation, particularly the 5-HT1A receptor pathway.
This has led some physicians and researchers to explore cannabinoids as supportive wellness tools.
