A couple of years ago CBD took the world by storm as a new leader in holistic medicine. Praised for its ability to help reduce anxiety and stress without getting the user high was revolutionary. Recently, a newer, more potent cannabinoid has been discovered and is once again taking over the hemp space with its incredible power and healing capabilities. This new cannabinoid is CBG.<\/strong><\/a> How to know what CBG to purchase is extremely important. CBG can be looked at as the younger cousin to CBD<\/strong><\/a> and while they both come from hemp plants, there are some very key differences. Mainly the potency and CBG\u2019s ability to provide energy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

With this incredible new cannabinoid comes a lot of companies trying to rapidly mass produce this hemp extract. This is the cause for a lot of poor batches of CBG to be made, CBG that isn\u2019t lab certified, and even CBG that is not actually CBG at all. USA Medical wants to put a stop to this and remain as transparent as possible with our customers so that when you come to our site to purchase high-quality CBG products you will know EXACTLY what you are buying, down to the chemical composition.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

This blog will break down the ins and outs of CBG, how it works, and the best type of CBG to buy so that you will never have to wonder if what you are purchasing is safe, effective, or potent. This way you can be ahead of the CBG misinformation, and one step closer to bettering your overall health.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

What Is CBG\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>

Before we get into what kind of CBG to buy you might be asking yourself \u201cwhat is CBG?\u201d Cannabigerol is the scientific name for CBG. CBG interacts with our bodies naturally due to a system that is innately inside of us. Inside our bodies, we have something called the Endocannabinoid System, or the ECS. CBG interacts with CB-1 and CB-2 receptors found in our brain and immune systems, which is what allows the CBG to do its job.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

CBG comes from a hemp plant which is a type of plant that called a phytocannabinoid that produces several different products. While it does come from the Cannabis family of trees, it is not to be confused with the cannabis plants that produce marijuana leaves. One of the most common extracts of hemp plants is CBD, and more recently, CBG. Unlike CBD however, CBG has to be extracted from baby hemp plants which is why it is a little more pricey, but also more potent. The extraction process for CBG is a lot more meticulous than its counterparts because it has to happen within a small window of time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Both CBD and CBG have very similar extraction processes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\u201cCBG is extracted through a chromatography process that uses superfluid liquid solvents like CO2 or ethanol to extract the cannabinoid. During the extraction process, hemp is dissolved in the solution, which draws the cannabinoids and terpenes out of the plant (ACSLabs).\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>

From there the CBG can be smoked as a flower, vaped as an oil, or what USA Medical believes is the best way to consume CBG for maximum efficacy – through a tincture.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

CBG has several different properties that allow it to treat your body and improve overall health. The reason that CBG, much like CBD is becoming so popular is that, depending on how it is produced, it cannot get you high and won\u2019t show up on a drug panel test. Below are just SOME of the many health issues that CBG is used to treat.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
