Cannabigerol (CBG) is a cannabinoid that’s been gaining attention for its unique properties and potential benefits. As one of the many compounds found in cannabis, CBG is often referred to as the "mother of all cannabinoids" due to its role as a precursor to other cannabinoids like THC and CBD. At Grandma’s Pot Shop, your trusted local dispensary in Peralta, New Mexico, we pride ourselves on offering a wide range of high-quality cannabis products, including those rich in CBG. Our knowledgeable budtenders are here to guide you through the exciting world of CBG and its potential benefits.
What is CBG?
CBG, or Cannabigerol, is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid found in cannabis that is often referred to as the "mother of all cannabinoids." This is because CBG serves as the precursor to other cannabinoids like THC, CBD, and CBC. In the early stages of cannabis growth, CBG is present in higher concentrations, but as the plant matures, it converts into these other cannabinoids, leaving only small amounts of CBG in mature plants. At our high-quality dispensary, we ensure that you have access to the best CBG-rich products on the market.
Potential Benefits of CBG
CBG is being studied for a range of potential therapeutic benefits, including its ability to help with chronic pain and anxiety. Additionally, research suggests that CBG may have anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and neuroprotective properties. Research suggests CBG may have neuroprotective effects, which could be beneficial in treating neurodegenerative diseases like Huntington’s disease. CBG is still being studied so keep an eye out for updates.
How to Use CBG
Cannabigerol (CBG) can be used in several ways, each offering different benefits depending on your needs. Here are the best ways to use CBG:
- CBG oil tinctures are placed under the tongue, where they are absorbed directly into the bloodstream. This method provides quick absorption and a longer-lasting effect, making it ideal for daily wellness routines or managing chronic conditions like pain and anxiety.
- CBG-rich cannabis strains or concentrates can be inhaled through vaping or smoking. This method offers immediate effects, making it useful for acute symptoms such as sudden onset of pain or anxiety. Inhalation provides the fastest delivery of CBG into the system.
- CBG-infused creams, balms, or ointments can be applied directly to the skin. Topicals are non-psychoactive and target localized pain or inflammation, making them ideal for conditions like arthritis or muscle soreness.
- Use CBG in combination with other cannabinoids like CBD or THC to enhance its effects through the entourage effect. This can amplify the therapeutic benefits, particularly for complex conditions that may require a broader spectrum of cannabinoids.
