CBG Products

Like CBD, cannabigerol (CBG) is a non-psychoactive naturally occurring hemp compound. It's earned the impressive nickname The Mother Cannabinoid because it is the precursor to all other cannabinoids. It transforms into THC, CBD, etc., as the plant grows. For this reason, CBG is more abundant in young hemp plants.

While CBD tends to get the lion's share of recognition from the wellness community, CBG could be as important. Cannabigerol combined with our Extract Labs CBD products is a one-two punch against life's stressors.

CBG can offer effects on its own but many people have reported additional benefits from adding CBG to their CBD. routine. Some believe that CBG works synergistically with other cannabinoids, such as CBD, in a phenomenon known as the entourage effect.

Everyone's body chemistries are different and this may lead to different felt effects of CBG over time. We recommend taking the same dose for 1-2 weeks and observing the effects. If you do not feel the results you are looking for, increase the dose amount or frequency of dose to determine what works best for you.

Full Spectrum:

Full spectrum products contain all elements (i.e. terpenes and cannabinoids) of the cannabis plant, including up to 0.3% THC. Many users prefer full spectrum products, as they are often associated with the “entourage effect”—multiple cannabinoids working synergistically together.

Broad Spectrum:

All broad spectrum products include a blend of the plant's naturally occurring cannabinoids, but contain 0% THC. Broad spectrum tends to be a popular favorite among users, as these products contain a variety of other cannabinoids withoutTHC.

Isolate:

Isolate refers to a singular cannabinoid profile contained in a product. Isolate is strictly one molecule such as CBD, CBG, or CBN. Isolate is completely THC free and does not include any other cannabinoids or additional hemp compounds.

The method by which you consume or administer cannabinoid products can affect their bioavailability, which is how much of a substance enters the bloodstream in a given amount of time.

For example, vaporizing or sublingual consumption are great ways to ingest cannabinoids, as they offer high bioavailability, meaning they will enter the bloodstream at a faster rate with short-lasting effects. On the other hand, oral consumption via capsules or edibles will enter the bloodstream at a slower rate with longer-lasting effects. Topicals offer the lowest bioavailability, as they are absorbed through the skin.

Understanding bioavailability can help you determine how much of a product you need to take, and in what form, to ensure a proper dose actually ends up in your system.

This term is used to describe the experience-based evidence where all of the components (cannabinoids, terpenes, etc.) in the plant work synergistically together in the body to create a balanced effect.
