CBG: Your New Favorite Cannabinoid
So, What’s the Big Deal with CBG?
Have you ever felt like you’re late to a trend?
Like when everyone’s suddenly obsessed with oat milk and you’re still here with regular ol’ dairy in your coffee? That feels like what’s happening with CBG (cannabigerol). It’s been hanging out in the hemp plant this whole time, but it naturally occurs in relatively smaller quantities than other cannabinoids, so it’s just now getting the attention and love it deserves.
CBG, like CBD, is non-intoxicating. However it has been found to calm your thoughts, reduce anxiety, and potentially be a bit uplifting. In a recent clinical trial conducted by researchers at Washington State University and UCLA,their research saw a significant reduction in anxiety compared to a placebo. What we found most interesting about this study, was that the researchers performed a memory test, expecting to find memory slightly impaired after the use of CBG. But, they found the exact opposite to hold true – participants were able to recall more words after taking CBG than after taking a placebo. They can’t explain this, but theorize that this might simply be attributed to the reduction in test anxiety.
CBG: The Benefits You Need to Know
Let’s break it down. Here’s why you might want to consider adding CBG to your daily routine:
☕ It’s like a chill cup of coffee
CBG interacts with your body’s natural systems to promote focus and balance without the jitters. Perfect for those of us who love caffeine but don’t love feeling like a human earthquake.
🔥 Inflammation? Not today.
Whether it’s post-workout soreness or chronic conditions like Crohn’s, CBG has powerful anti-inflammatory properties that help calm things down.
🧠 Brain boost, anyone?
Early research shows that CBG may help protect nerve cells, which could mean long-term benefits for brain health. Not saying it’ll turn you into a genius overnight, but hey—every little bit helps, right?
😊 Hello, good vibes.
