What is CBG?

You may have noticed on our “The Good Stuff” facts page that Connolly & McKenna products also contain CBG. CBG (cannabigerol) is one of the many cannabinoids found in the hemp plant and is often referred to as the “mother cannabinoid” because it acts as a precursor to other cannabinoids, such as THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol).

CBG is non-psychoactive and is being actively researched for its potential therapeutic effects, including anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, and antibacterial properties. CBG also works to relax individuals suffering from anxiety and excessive stress. Although CBG is present in lower concentrations compared to THC and CBD, its potential health benefits are generating growing interest in the wellness community.
