CBG stands for cannabigerol, a naturally occurring cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant. Often called the “mother of all cannabinoids,” CBG is a precursor to other well-known cannabinoids like THC, CBD, and CBC. This makes it a foundational compound in the plant’s chemical makeup.

CBG vs. Other Cannabinoids

Unlike THC, CBG is non-psychoactive, meaning it does not produce a high. It differs from CBD in its chemical structure and the ways it interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS). By supporting the ECS, CBG may help the body maintain balance in areas like:

• Mood regulation

• Sleep and relaxation

• Pain and inflammation response

• Appetite and digestion

• Immune system support

Why CBG Is Called the “Mother of All Cannabinoids”

CBG is called the “mother of all cannabinoids” because it is the precursor molecule for many other cannabinoids. In the cannabis plant, CBG exists in its acidic form, CBGA, and through natural enzymatic processes, it converts into:

• THC-A → eventually becomes psychoactive THC

• CBD-A → eventually becomes CBD

• CBC-A → eventually becomes CBC

This process shows why CBG plays such a crucial role in the plant’s chemistry and potential therapeutic effects.

Potential Benefits of CBG

Although research is still emerging, CBG is believed to offer several wellness benefits:

• Supports Relaxation and Calm

• Anti-Inflammatory Properties

• Neuroprotective Effects

• Mood and Focus Support

• Digestive Health Support

CBG is often combined with other cannabinoids such as CBD or THC-A to enhance effects through the entourage effect.

Forms of CBG

CBG is available in multiple product types to suit different preferences:

• Tinctures & Oils – for quick and easy dosing

• Capsules & Softgels – convenient and pre-measured

• Edibles & Gummies – flavorful, discreet options

• Topicals – creams and balms for localized relief
