This oil keeps me out of the hospital

Cannabis has been at the center of one of the most exciting developments in modern science. Research on marijuana's effects led directly to the discovery of a previously unknown biochemical communication system in the human body, the Endocannabinoid System, which plays an important role in regulating our physiology, mood, and everyday experience. Endocannabinoid receptors respond to cannabinoid compounds that our own bodies make, and they respond to phytocannabinoidsor plant cannabinoidsthat are found in cannabis and hemp. There is a great deal of researchmuch of it sponsored by the US Governmentshowing that cannabis contains compounds that may help treat a range of illnesses or symptoms, generally by working on the Endocannabinoid System. Cannabinoids and other components in cannabis can modulate many systems in the human brain and body. More than 100 cannabinoids have been identified in the marijuana plant. Of these marijuana molecules, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) have been studied most extensively.
