How to explain ADHD to a 5 year old (and an adult for that matter!)

How to explain ADHD to a 5 year old (and an adult for that matter!)

CBD and the Menopause — Does it work and if so how? 

CBD and the Menopause — Does it work and if so how? 

The endocannabinoid system is a collection of cell receptors, called cannabinoid receptors, in the brain, other organs, and tissues throughout the body. This system plays an important role in menopause, and CBD affect the way that it works. In theory, this means that CBD could influence the effects of menopause on the body. Cannabinoid receptors are involved in: mood regulation the functioning of the immune system pain sleep memory fertility and reproduction temperature regulation One theory is that a poorly functioning endocannabinoid system can lead to various health conditions.
