Right, exactly. It's a biological system in the body that helps regulate and balance key bodily functions like mood, energy, balance, and appetite.

These natural cannabinoids interact with cannabinoid receptors, of which there are many. So I'm with you so far. So cannabinoids also exist in other places in nature, such as cacao, which is why dark chocolate makes us feel a certain way. It's interacting with our cannabinoid receptors. So is being a chocoholic kind of a real thing? Yes, it actually is.

In fact, I have my six month chip from Chocoholics Anonymous. Sadly, they made it out of chocolate and I ate it. So I'm back to my week one chip. Look, cacao isn't the only plant that produces cannabinoids. Yeah. Is it cannabis? Correct. Cannabis has over 100 different cannabinoids. But for our purposes today, we're just going to be talking about the big two, THC and CBD.

That's interesting. And look, that's CBD, but I'm pretty sure that everyone knows what THC is. It's tetrahydrocannabinol. And everyone knows that THC or tetrahydrocannabinol is the one that gets you high. And CBD or cannabidiol is the one with purported health benefits.
