  Overview

  Cannabis. Marijuana. Cannabinoids. CBD. THC.

  Cannabis has been around almost forever, with quite the circular debate on its safety, efficacy, and, of course, legality across the globe. Perhaps before getting lost in the weeds, we all need to discuss the basic pharmacology of all things cannabis, starting with some basic botanical “farm” information and a review of our human Endocannabinoid System (ECS) before then endeavoring into the complexities of its pharmacology. A higher education for all.
