The body makes its own versions of THC, dubbed endocannabinoids, which work by binding to the same specific receptors as THC. Endocannabinoids travel in the opposite direction of most brain signals. In this way, they play a part in regulating almost all brain and body processes, making endocannabinoids prime targets for treating many diseases and conditions.
