When talking about cannabinoids, most people think of CBD and THC, but there are many more interesting substances in the hemp plant that are starting to get attention. One of these is CBG, or Cannabigerol, a lesser known but extremely promising cannabinoid. Here we go over what CBG Oil is, its potential benefits, and why it might be worth adding to your routine.
What is the CBG?
CBG stands for cannabigerol, one of over 120 cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. CBG is often referred to as the 'mother cannabinoid' because many other cannabinoids, such as CBD and THC, start out as CBG before being converted during plant growth. Despite its key role in the formation of other cannabinoids, CBG is found in significantly smaller quantities than both CBD and THC, making it a rarer and often more expensive ingredient.
How does the CBG work?
Like other cannabinoids, CBG interacts with the body's endocannabinoid system (ECS), which is a network of receptors and neurotransmitters that help regulate various bodily functions. CBG binds to both CB1 and CB2 receptors, which is thought to contribute to its unique effects in the body.
How to use CBG Oil?
CBG oil is often used in a similar way to CBD oil. The most common method of use is to take a few drops, which is a convenient way to dose the product.
The amount you choose to use can vary, and many people start with a small amount to adapt to their needs.
Is CBG Oil safe?
Yes, CBG is considered safe to use and has no psychoactive effects, which means it won't get you "high" like THC can. Although CBG does not produce any intoxicating effects, it is still wise to start with a low dose to gradually familiarize yourself with its properties and how it affects you.
Is it legal to buy CBG Oil in the UK?
Yes, you can buy and use CBG Oil in Sweden as long as your product is free of THC. In other European countries, a THC limit of 0.2%-0.3% THC often applies. In Sweden, your oil must be totally THC free (0.0% THC).

CBG or CBD - what's the difference?
CBG and CBD are both non-psychoactive cannabinoids that occur naturally in hemp. Despite some similarities, they differ in their chemical structure and how they are commonly used. Some users combine CBG and CBD in order to experience a broader cannabinoid profile, sometimes referred to as the entourage effect.
How much CBG Oil should I use?
When you start using CBG Oil, it is wise to start with a low dose and gradually increase as you get to know its effects.
If you are a new user, it is recommended to start with 1-2 drops, twice a day. Use the oil regularly for about a week before possibly increasing the dose to 2-4 drops, two to three times daily.
