A cannabinoid that is not as widely known as others, but that is likely to change soon.
An inconspicuous substance that works quite differently from THC, or CBD. Why?
What is the CBC?
CBC, like other cannabinoids is found in the cannabis plant. However, it is distinctly different from most cannabinoids we are familiar with, all due to its mode of action on the endocannabinoid system. CBC, unlike most hemp-derived substances, binds weakly to CB1 and CB receptors, but acts more strongly on TRPV receptors found in cell membranes.
Operation of the CBC
It's still a poorly researched cannabinoid, but it's already known to exhibit quite a few therapeutic actions that we can take advantage of. CBC, like CBD, does not exhibit psychoactive effects. However, it is a potent antibiotic and Helps with infections resistant to other treatments.
In addition, it supports the body in the fight against cancer and inflammations. There are studies according to which, by activating TRPV receptors, CBC can help protect the brain from Eurodegradative diseases such as Alzheimer's by encouraging it to produce new brain cells.
