Inflammation: a localized physical condition in which part of the body becomes reddened, swollen, hot, and often painful, especially as a response to injury or infection.
It has only been in the last 20 years that we, the scientific/medical community, have appreciated the role of the endogenous Cannabinoid system (ECS) in maintaining a healthy immune system an...
