The Climb | A podcast for Women in Business | Presented by the Inner Mountain Foundation

Lea Durante is a scholar whose educational journey took her through the halls of the nation's most prestigious institutions, including Harvard and Johns Hopkins. A testament to her pursuit of knowledge, Lea's academic endeavors led her to an astonishing discovery that piqued her intellectual curiosity—the intricacies of the endocannabinoid system.

She became fascinated by how this complex network plays a pivotal role in maintaining homeostasis within the human body. Her studies illuminated how the system's receptors for naturally occurring molecules, anandamide, and 2-AG, are more abundant than any other receptor type within the body. Lea's work centered on how the endocannabinoid system is the silent conductor orchestrating the symphony of physiological processes, from the rhythm of our heartbeat to the strength of our bones, the robustness of our immune defense, and the efficiency of our digestive system.

Lea Durante's expertise and passion for the subject have made her a respected figure in human physiology. She is dedicated to uncovering the secrets of balance and well-being=== inherent in our biological makeup.
