ECS, the mysterious system within our bodies
Many of us have heard of some of the transmitter systems within our bodies, such as the sympathetic nervous system. Fewer have heard of the more recently discovered endocannabinoid system (ECS), which is amazing when you consider that the ECS is critical for almost every aspect of our moment-to-moment functioning. The ECS regulates and controls many of our most critical bodily functions, such as learning and memory, emotional processing, sleep, temperature control, pain control, inflammatory and immune responses, and eating.
The ECS is currently at the center of renewed international research and drug development.
