cannabinoids

Cannabinoids are a class of diverse chemical compounds that act on cannabinoid receptors in cells, altering neurotransmitter release in the brain. They are known for their therapeutic potential, influencing a wide range of physiological processes such as appetite, pain sensation, mood, and memory. The two most well-known cannabinoids are tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which is psychoactive, and cannabidiol (CBD), which does not produce a high but is often used for its potential medical benefits.
