What is CBG: The CBD Relative
What is CBG?
CBG is a relative of the more common CBD. Both are cannabinoids derived from the hemp plant. Both of them are non-psychoactive. This means they will not get you high.
It seems to have some different functions and health benefits than CBD. Research is currently being done to see how it could help.
While the research is currently limited, studies do exist that suggest that it offers several benefits. This includes IBS, glaucoma, appetite loss, and more.
How to take CBG
It is best taken alongside other cannabinoids. This allows you to take advantage of the “entourage effect”.
The entourage effect
This is the theory that all the compounds in cannabis work together, and when taken together, they produce a better effect than when taken alone. This can be achieved by using a full-spectrum oil. For instance, specific products can also be used.
Companies that produce CBG products should have their products tested by an independent lab. The company’s products should be third-party tested. And be sure to read the lab report, which should be available on their website or via email. This is a good sign of a quality distributor.
