Endocannabinoid System Certificate Course - Enjoy the Journey!
Foundation of Cannabinoid Medicine is brought to you by Genesis School of Natural Health in partnership with PIVITAL EDU, the global leaders in cannabis science and clinical care.
The Endocannabinoid System is found in the body of every mammal and is linked to the brain, organs, glands, muscles, tissues, and nerves. It plays a role in maintaining homeostasis, a state of internal balance, enabling all systems and organs to function optimally together. The bodily functions it regulates include appetite and metabolism, pain, inflammation, sleep, mood, body temperature, cardiovascular issues, digestion, immune function, brain function, memory and reproduction.

Before attending Genesis School of Natural Health, I wasn't sure what I wanted to do in life but knew that I wanted to help people naturally. When I found Genesis and called, I got the confirmation that I needed to attend and accomplish my goals. I was given the confidence from the staff and knew that Genesis genuinely cared about me and my goals. I knew that I would get the support that I needed. They have been there throughout the whole processes and for that I am forever grateful! Thank you Genesis for all that you are doing for the world! You are blessed!-” - Nickitta M.
