Reply to comment by IAmDavidGurney in TIL that the drug GHB occurs naturally and is produced as a result of fermentation, and is found in small quantities in some beers, wines, beef, and small citrus fruits. It is also produced in the human brain by IAmDavidGurney

Researchers have identified two cannabinoid receptors: CB1, predominantly present in the nervous system, connective tissues, gonads, glands, and organs; and CB2, predominantly found in the immune system and its associated structures.

My point was that GHB has it's own receptor that it binds too. IE the GHB receptor is designed to have endogenous GHB bind to it. The cannabinoid receptors are designed for endocannabinoids like anandamide, not THC or CBD which the body does not produce.
