Cannabis is a part of Us.

Did you know that our brains are literally HARD-WIRED for cannabis use?

How?

We ALL have an Endocannabinoid System (ECS).

What is the ECS?

It is a "...complex network of receptors (CB1) in the brain and central nervous system that are a perfect fit for the THC molecule...... another type of receptor (CB2) was discovered in the immune system, gut and many of the body’s major organs. But that was only part of the puzzle. The hunt was on to find out whether the body produced its own cannabis-like chemicals, and with the identification of the first endocannabinoid Anandamide, they had their answer..."

"...Scientists have realised that the endocannabinoid system fine-tunes most of our vital physiological functions, bringing balance to everything from sleep, appetite, pain, inflammation, memory, mood and even reproduction. So in basic terms, it’s like a conductor of an orchestra, ensuring that no one section is drowning out the other, with the end result a perfectly harmonised symphony between body and mind..."

Besides ALL HUMANS having an ECS....

Cannabinoid receptors are also found ALL vertebraes including non-vertebrae sea-squirts.

Which suggests an evolutionary process dating back 600 million years.

Yeah. MILLIONS of Years.

Cannabis has been a part of ALL Life for millennia. The proof is right there in the anatomy and physiology.

So whether we like it or not, or we choose to deny/inform ourselves or not, EVERYONE'S ancestors had cannabis as a part of the food chain when they Lived.

Don't believe me.
Research it for yourself.

You know about CBD, yes? I figured out a way to easily and cheaply test for CBD with materials you can find in your own house. Would you please help me share this information, please? Growers have been deprived of an easy way to test for CBD and this information flips the tables.

Great seeing you on steemit, @keekeeofthenorth! ;)

Hey thanks so much :) I still have a ton of reading up to do on how all of this works. Thanks Dan.
