Endocannabinoids do not come from the cannabis plant, our bodies produce them. Endocannabinoids make our immune system work, which kills diseased cells in our bodies.

At least some the Phytocannabinoids and probably most of them (there are 70 known) from the cannabis plant act like the endocannabinoids our bodies produce, boosting our immune system. Our immune system was designed by God to protect us from disease. Some of the other Phytocannabinoids from cannabis have other medical properties including ones that attack cancer cells on their own, have remarkable anti-inflammatory properties and reduce pain without being addictive. I am no stoner, I am interested in the science and ways we can improve our medical field to help fight disease and reduce suffering.

Forget that it is the ‘cannabis’ plant, look at the science. There are some other plants being re-discovered to have amazing medical properties too. It is a very interesting field of study and one we are already benefiting from, and that is going to increase as these studies continue.
