The strange facts of cannabinoid deficiency
Have you heard of Clinical Endocannabinoid Deficiency? Some researchers believe that several diseases like fibromyalgia and multiple sclerosis are caused by the shortage of internally produced cannabinoids. In other words, the body internal mechanism contains a system of cannabinoids similar in some sense to what is found within the cannabis plant. Homeostasis refers to the ability of the endocannabinoid system in the body that controls appetite and sleep, pain and metabolism. Lacking cannabinoids would mean that many body systems would get disturbed, leading to critical problems. Primary authorities claim that the deficiency leads to Crohn’s disease, migraine and multiple sclerosis. Thus, it is believed that consuming cannabis may help to relieve such symptoms.
The marijuana substitution
Can such a deficiency be substituted with the cannabinoids that are found in marijuana? Can cannabis derivatives or the plant itself control the aging process?
An authority considers that cannabinoids do control the aging syndrome. It is universally accepted that free radicals are responsible for aging that multiply without antioxidants to banish them from the body. Thus come inflammation and health problems associated with age. Besides helping to relieve cancer, one authority thinks that cannabinoids prevent many diseases that come with age as a result of weakening body immune systems.
Cannabidiol and cannabichromene relieve infections. Tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabinol behave as antioxidants, helping in maintaining comprehensive health. Yet a certain mystery remains that future research may hope to unravel, how cannabinoids relate to human body systems. A day may come in the future when cannabinoids or the entire plant would be used as therapy to control a large range of diseases, alleviating suffering that exists in great intensity in present day humanity.
Prevention is better
Perhaps cannabinoid therapy would deal with prevention techniques unlike attending to an emergency after the harm has been done like after a heart attack. Reducing infection and controlling free radicals could be the strategy adopted. If that is achieved, many age connected diseases would be controlled that would otherwise inflict enormous damage upon human life. Yet such a treatment in view of all the sophistication of current medical practices could be considered rather old fashioned.
Much of the world waits with bated breath for legalization of marijuana that has become a hurdle to achieving the miraculous cures that we dream of like for epileptics in Texas. As mighty lucrative markets open up for enterprising marijuana businesses in the USA, Canada and Europe, research progresses on a war footing to get at the secrets.
