Anandamide

Anandamide is a compound present in mammalian brains, including human brains.

It binds to THC receptors[?], the same receptors that bind tetrahydrocannabinol, the active ingredient in marijuana. Recently anandamide was also discovered in chocolate, setting off a flurry of speculation about the powers of chocolate and the fate of chocaholics.
