Although the neuroactive properties of plants have been explored by humans for millennia, the actual scientific connections have only recently been fully explored. One of the emerging fields of neurocosmetics focuses on the endocannabinoid system.
Ingredients like CBD directly access the newly explored biological system that expresses itself through the central and peripheral nervous systems.
Endocannabinoids naturally present in our body and phytocannabinoids applied externally have a variety of applications and impact the immune system, improving sleep quality, as well as reducing stress levels.
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a biological system based on endocannabinoids, which are endogenous lipid-based retrograde neurotransmitters that bind to cannabinoid receptors (CRs), and on cannabinoid receptor proteins that are expressed throughout the central nervous system (including the brain) and peripheral nervous system of vertebrates.
