ECS Support

What is ECS Support? 

 

Endocannabinoid System (ECS)

The Endocannabinoid System is a biological system in the body that plays a key role in regulating:

• Sleep

• Mood

• Appetite

• Memory

• Pain

• Immune response
   

It was discovered in the 1990s when researchers were studying THC (the active compound in cannabis). Since then, it's been a major focus in medical cannabis, pain management, and neurology.

​

🔬 ECS is made up of:

1. Endocannabinoids – chemicals your body naturally produces (like anandamide)

2. Cannabinoid receptors – mainly CB1 (in brain/nervous system) and CB2 (in immune system)

3. Enzymes – that break down endocannabinoids after use
   
   ​

🏥 In Clinical/Healthcare Support Terms:

If someone says “ECS support” in a medical facility or clinic, it may refer to:

• Supporting the Endocannabinoid System through therapies or supplements

• Medical cannabis programs or cannabinoid therapy services

• Integrative or functional medicine approaches that regulate ECS for overall health
