Diet & the Endocannabinoid System Food for Thought By Martin A. Lee on March 20, 2017 Cannabis has been a friend to humankind since before the written word, providing fiber for cordage and cloth, seeds for nutrition, and roots, leaves and flowers for ritual and healing. During the Neolithic period, our ancestors discovered uses for every part of cannabis, which was one of the first agricultural crops, perhaps the first, ever to be grown and harvested some 12,000 years ago.

The cannabinoid receptor agonist WIN55.212 reduces consequences of status epilepticus in rats. Author information Abstract An acute brain insult can cause a spectrum of primary and secondary pathologies including increased risk for epilepsy, mortality and neurodegeneration. The endocannabinoid system, involved in protecting the brain against network hyperexcitability and excitotoxicity, is profoundly dysregulated by acute brain insults. We hypothesize that post-insult dysregulation of the endocannabinoid signaling may contribute to deleterious effects of an acute brain injury and potentiation of endocannabinoid transmission soon after an insult may reduce its pathological outcomes. Effects of an acute post-insult administration of the endocannabinoid receptor agonist...
CBD Misconceptions By Martin A. Lee on February 18, 2015 Updated: August 2, 2015 It doesn’t get you high, but it’s causing quite a buzz among medical scientists and patients.
