CBG OIL

What is CBG? CBG oil is CBG, or cannabigerol, which is a non-intoxicating cannabinoid found in cannabis plants, including the hemp plants used to produce hemp oil. All strains of hemp produce the precursor of CBG, called CBGA (or cannabigerolic acid) early in their lifecycle. Over time, this acid transforms into cannabinoids, including CBD, CBC, THC, a small amount of CBG, and many more, leaving behind only trace amounts of CBGA. Because of the low levels of CBG found in most strains, CBG is considered a minor cannabinoid. Some strains of hemp have been bred to produce high levels of CBG from the CBGA produced early in the plant’s lifecycle, forgoing the production of the other cannabinoids. As with CBD and THC, CBG interacts with the CB1 and CB2 cannabinoid receptors found throughout the body. How is CBG Oil Made? Cannabis plants, including the hemp plants used to produce hemp oil, produce CBGA (cannabigerolic acid), the forerunner to the three major cannabinoid precursors: THCA (tetr
