The Healing Power of the Endocannabinoid System (ECS)

on Brain Support
It’s surprising to many that the ECS was only discovered in 1988. However since then there have been over 23000 studies listed on PubMed containing the word “cannabinoid”. If you want to review the science go to PubMed and search the studies. That is a lot of interest. The origin of the ECS discovery is Dr. Raphael Mechoulam who was researching how marijuana THC works in the body and brain. Dr. Mechoulam named this system the EndoCannabinoid System (ECS). “Endo” means within the body. “Cannabinoid” highlights the role the cannabis plant played in this discovery.
This is a confusing topic for many. In this interview we are going to give you a great introduction into the ECS. The more you understand the better choices you will make. My guest is Jade Beutler. Jade is the CEO of Emerald Health Bioceuticals. Emerald Health Bioceuticals is a global leader in the research and development of plant-based phytocannabinoids that support the human ECS.
Here are a few important points that will help you gain some perspective.
- In the body the ECS is comprised of cell receptor sites called CB1 and CB2. We are interested in the compounds that affect these receptors directly and/or as precursors to these compounds that affect the ECS.
- Our body produces endocannabinoids. Dr. Mechoulam discovered two compounds in the body that affect the ECS, Anandimide and 2-AG. Anadamide and 2-AG are now known to play a main role in direct cell to cell communication.
- Nature produces phytocannabinoids in plants. Phytocannabinoids are various plant compounds that have an effect on the ECS. The most well known phytocannabinoids are THC and CBD from Cannabis Sativa L. Marijuana is Cannabis Sativa L. with a higher THC content. Hemp is cannabis with a low THC content. There are over 100 phytocannabinoid compounds found in the cannabis plant. There is a lot of research to be had as we explore other compounds that also affect the ECS.
- Many other plants produce phytocannabinoids. They are not the same compounds as found in cannabis. Thousands of plants and common herbs have been shown to have some type of effect on the ECS. Emerald Health Bioceuticals has extensive research into these other plants and their unique phytocannabinoids. Their unique focus has led to the creation of safe and effective nutritional supplements that target ECS support. Their supplements do not contain CBD or THC. Their products are created with non-cannabis phytocannabinoids and additional nutrients for a more complete synergistic effect.

ECS as Master Regulator
The surprising discovery of a previously unknown biological system promises a new frontier in the understanding of health and wellness. The discovery of the Endocannabinoid System (ECS) in 1988 is extraordinarily recent considering its estimated 600 million year origin. The ECS exists in all animals except insects. Most remarkable is that the ECS is now believed to play a central role in the orchestration, maintenance and balance of optimal health and healing – defined as homeostasis.
The discovery of the Endocannabinoid System can be likened to revealing a previously unknown sixth-sense of sorts. The breakthrough came when research scientist, attempting to elicit the metabolic pathways of psychoactive THC, discovered an elegant cell-signaling system triggered by the compound. The ECS is now seen as a master regulator to other systems in the body.
