What is Endocannabinoid Deficiency Disorder?

The endogenous endocannabinoid system is the largest receptor system in the brain. 10 times larger than the endogenous morphine system. Could faults in this massive receptor network have negative effects on health? Dr Ross look at the hypothesis that endocannabinoid deficiency disorder is a possible cause of disease.

Dr. Ross is both a cannabinoid medicine researcher and a cannabis patient. After being diagnosed fibromyalgia and neuropathy, cannabis was the only thing that reduced her symptoms and allowed her to return to work. After hearing thousands of extraordinary patient stories just like hers, Dr. Ross was compelled to ensure cannabis becomes part of the American healthcare system.
