Exploring the Health Benefits of CBG

Exploring the Health Benefits of CBG

CBG is one of the many natural compounds present in hemp and cannabis plants called cannabinoids. Like other cannabinoids, such as the more popular CBD and delta-9 THC, CBG has a number of purported health benefits. Although research is still in early stages, the science we do have suggests that CBG could be effective at treating the symptoms of issues such as chronic pain, insomnia, and anxiety. If you’re curious about how CBG can benefit you, consider trying Happy Fruit’s CBG gummies!

What is CBG?

When young hemp plants grow and begin to mature, they produce cannabigerolic acid, otherwise known as CBGA. This is called an “early phase” cannabinoid. As these plants reach the end of their growth, they absorb UV light. This process breaks down CBGA and converts it to the various other cannabinoids. For this reason, CBG is often referred to as the “Mother of Cannabinoids,” because it is the source of all other cannabinoids. Continue reading to learn about the many potential benefits of CBG! 

CBG Health Benefits

CBG, along with all other cannabinoids, was only federally legalized in 2018. Because this was less than a decade ago, there still hasn’t been an abundance of scientific research into how these cannabinoids work and what their benefits may be. However, early-stage research suggests more than a few ways how hemp customers might use CBG for wellness. 

Many CBG customers have reported that this cannabinoid is helpful in treating nonphysical conditions like anxiety, as well as physical ailments such as chronic pain. Additionally, some reports have been made that CBG might be able to help treat insomnia. It is believed that these benefits stem from the way that CBG interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system, or ECS. Scientists have found that CBG bonds with CB1 and CB2 receptors in the ECS, which is regulates a wide variety of functions like sleep cycles, mood, and appetite. Like some other cannabinoids, CBG has also been found to be a natural anti-inflammatory, which explains how and why it can be an effective treatment for chronic pain conditions.

Try Happy Fruit’s CBG Gummies!

Some of Happy Fruit’s Live Rosin Delta-9 Gummies contain beneficial amounts of CBG. Live rosin delta-9 is THC that has been extracted from fresh hemp plants, as opposed to plants that have been frozen, spray with preservatives, or both. In addition to CBG, the following gummies contain federally legal amounts of delta-9 THC. First time customers should be aware that delta-9 THC is a psychoactive cannabinoid and it will likely cause a positive test result on a drug screening. Additionally, while hemp products that contain 0.3% delta-9 THC or less are legal on the federal level in the United States, each state may have their own regulations concerning hemp cannabinoids. That’s why you should visit the “Shipping Laws” page on our website before ordering our hemp gummies to your door!
