Cannabinoid Receptor Types Guide

Cannabinoid receptors are proteins found in the human body that bind with cannabinoids like CBD and THC. There are two primary types:

  • CB1 Receptors: Primarily found in the brain and central nervous system, they are responsible for the psychoactive effects of THC.
  • CB2 Receptors: Found mostly in the immune system and peripheral tissues, they are involved in regulating inflammation and pain.

CBD products interact with both CB1 and CB2 receptors to provide relief for various conditions. Learn more about how these receptors work and the benefits of CBD products.
