CBD CBG CBN Research and Studies
CBG Research and Potential Benefits
CBG research has shown promising results. It may reduce inflammation, pain, and slow the growth of specific cancer cells through its interaction with the endocannabinoid system. Read our Research Briefs and Articles summarizing cannabinoid research and studies. Each summary includes cited sources and links to the in-depth research and studies.
| CBG RESEARCH AND STUDIES | RESEARCH/STUDY LINK |
|---|---|
|
CBG showed anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, neuroprotective, analgesic, antibacterial, metabolic, ocular, and anticancer potential in preclinical models. It appears generally well tolerated. |
|
|
CBG demonstrated strong anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and skin-protecting properties, outperforming CBD. |
|
|
CBD and CBG showed antimicrobial activity without broadly disrupting skin microbiota (in vitro). |
|
|
CBG is a potential treatment for AD. CBG improved dermatitis score, epidermal thickness, mast cells, and down-regulated JAK/STAT and NF-κB pathways. |
|
|
CBG offers protective and regenerative benefits for human skin cells exposed to UVA radiation. |
|
|
CBG reduced anxiety and stress in a clinical trial and may enhance memory, with no cognitive or motor impairments. |
|
|
CBG and antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects. |
|
|
CBG reduced neuropathic pain by interacting with CB1, CB2, and α2-adrenoceptors. |
|
|
CBG may ease daily activity interference caused by post- exercise soreness. |
|
|
CBG demonstrated antibacterial activity, particularly against antibiotic-resistant bacteria like MRSA. |
|
|
CBG inhibited Colon Cancer cell growth and promoted apoptosis in colorectal cancer cells. |
|
|
CBG exhibited anti-cancer properties, reducing tumor growth and promoting apoptosis in glioblastoma and other cancers. |
|
|
CBG, that may be a potential treatment against neuroinflammation and oxidative stress. |
|
|
CBG neuroprotective properties in experimental models of Huntington’s disease (HD) |
|
|
Therapeutic potential of cannabigerol (CBG) for multiple sclerosis (MS). |
|
|
CBG showed potential in managing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by mitigating oxidative damage in addition to reducing inflammation. |
|
|
CBG elicits hyperphagia, by reducing latency to feed and increasing meal frequency |
|
|
Perceived effects, benign adverse event profile and negligible withdrawal symptoms from CBG. |
CBN Research and Potential Benefits
With the increasing popularity of cannabinoid-based products, there is a growing demand for innovative formulations promoting the potential benefits of high-purity CBN. While research is still in its infancy compared to CBD, CBG and THC, CBN has shown promise in enhancing relaxation and sleep quality, anti-inflammation support and neuroprotective effects against oxytosis/ferroptosis, among other potential benefits. The following table summarizes key findings, with links to the science-backed studies.
| CBN RESEARCH KEY FINDINGS | RESEARCH/STUDY LINK |
|---|---|
|
Sleep Aid – 20 mg CBN reduced awakenings and sleep disturbance vs placebo. |
|
|
Pain Relief / Anti-Inflammatory – CBN demonstrated Pain RElief and Anti-inflammatory properties Reduced mechanical hypersensitivity and inflammation; no motor impairment.outperforming CBD. |
|
|
Neuroprotective Potential – Improved cognition, mitochondrial function, and synaptic plasticity. |
|
|
Antibacterial / Antibiofilm – Potent MRSA biofilm inhibition and bacterial killing. |
|
|
Glaucoma Management / IOP Reduction – Lowered intraocular pressure and protected retinal ganglion cells. |
|
|
Anticonvulsant Properties – Reduced seizure-like activity at low doses without heavy sedation. |
