CBD could help with a lot of different health concerns — like chronic pain and anxiety. But how does it all happen? All the wellness benefits you enjoy from cannabinoids like CBD are due to the CB1 and CB2 receptors in your body’s endocannabinoid system. Let’s dive into how they work. The Endocannabinoid System To understand CB receptors, we need to cover the endocannabinoid system. Everyone has an endocannabinoid system, or ECS. The ECS is linked to the following processes: Mood Appetite Sleep Reproduction Metabolism Immune system Digestion Cardiovascular function Memory The ECS works to regulate these different biological systems within the body to maintain homeostasis (stable physiological equilibrium).

When something is off balance, the body produces endocannabinoids to interact with these receptors and return the body to homeostasis.
