In the following audiobook, you will learn about the active components of cannabis, its chemical structure, and its biological function, as well as the uses of these molecules not only at a medicinal level but also at an industrial level. When the cannabis plant faces stressful situations, such as lack of water or temperature change, it produces four important molecules: phenylpropanoids, terpenes, flavonoids, and phytocannabinoids, among others. These components help the plant to face these types of situations, being produced during its development and protecting it from various external factors. Thanks to technological and research advances, humans have found a valuable use for them. Important medicinal functions have been described for these metabolites, such as their anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic and anticancer effects. In addition, they are used in the food, textile, cosmetics, and paper production industries. These molecules are carbon chains linked together, but some of them have small chemical modifications that make them unique. That is why, in this incredible audiobook, you will learn about how the plant's secondary metabolites work, where they are processed and how humans use them for their own benefit. If you are interested in learning more about the extraordinary world of cannabis, we invite you to enjoy this audiobook that Pharmacology University just made for you.
