Of course, you have heard of CBD, and all its wonderful health benefits. Yet, it’s not the only substance in the hemp plant with healing properties.
CBG is another cannabinoid with a lot of potential. Research is showing this cousin of CBD can also treat a wide variety of conditions.
CBG has antifungal and antimicrobial benefits. Some believe CBG is a better bacteria fighter than CBD.
Like CBD, CBG can relieve inflammation and pain.
Symptoms of anxiety and depression can be reduced with regular doses of CBG. Cognitive decline can be slowed as well.
This natural extract of the hemp plant also acts as a muscle relaxant.
CBG does not get you high. The psychoactive effects of THC are actually reduced with CBG.
So far, no significant side effects have been reported after taking CBG. Minor side effects include tiredness, dry mouth, and appetite changes. Otherwise, CBG is well tolerated and considered safe to consume.
CBG is becoming more widely available. Many reputable CBD sellers are introducing CBG products.
Time will tell is CBG is the same or better than CBD. Nonetheless, another natural alternative to potentially dangerous prescription drugs is gaining traction. Be on the lookout for the next new cannabinoid – CBG.
