Cannabigerol (CBG), which comes from the cannabis plant, has been shown in a recent study that was published in the journal Scientific Reports to successfully lower stress and anxiety. It may also help with memory improvement.
For a euphoric effect, dried cannabis or marijuana leaves are eaten or smoked. The plant contains psychoactive compounds called cannabinoids, which are the source of CBG and CBD.
Legalizing cannabis for recreational use is a topic of dispute worldwide. While many nations, even wealthy ones, have legalized cannabis for medical purposes, such as relieving chronic pain or nausea from chemotherapy, there are still many others where it is not.
According to the study's authors, which included researchers from Washington State University in the US, the clinical trial data offered by CBG producers—who have made "bold, unsubstantiated claims of its effects"—could educate consumers and the scientific community.
"We must refrain from saying that CBG is a panacea medication. Replication and more research are essential, even though it's novel and fascinating," corresponding author Carrie Cuttler, a psychology associate professor at Washington State University, stated.
"Ongoing and future studies will help build a comprehensive understanding of CBG's benefits and safety, potentially offering a new avenue for reducing feelings of anxiety and stress without the intoxicating effects of THC," Cuttler stated.
