By this point most people have a general understanding of the benefits of CBD but, with advancements in hemp and cannabis science more people are becoming aware of CBG and CBN and are increasingly curious as to their differences. More and more people are purchasing products containing CBG and CBN as they focus on more specific aliments and CBD has become less of the go to product for non-psychoactive compounds produced by the hemp plant. CBD still holds a very important role but is no longer the most sought-after non-psychoactive cannabinoid. We’re going to take a look at how we got here. So, kick back in the cut, fire one up, and let’s learn about some weed stuff! 

Why We All Know CBD 

The main reason we all know about CBD is because it is the most widely researched cannabinoid in the world. As research into the hemp plant continues, we continue to learn more about the 100+ other cannabinoids, how to isolate them for use, and exactly what they are good at doing. CBD is the second most purchased cannabinoid behind THC but at this point should it be? With the emergence of CBG and CBN, CBD is more of a facilitator making consumers more comfortable buying new products and it is doing exceedingly well as consumers focus on their specific needs. 

Why CBG and CBN Are Better for Specific Needs 

CBD, CBG, and CBN all have things they do well in common like help with sleep, general pain relief, and reduction in anxiety and stress but when it comes to specific issues in those areas CBG and CBN start to shine. CBD is primarily good for bone related pain, but the two most common uses of CBD, sleep and stress, are better suited to CBG and CBN.  CBG works well with such as nerve and muscle pain while also helping with brain activity reducing anxiety and stress better than CBD alone. CBN, on the other hand, is exceptional as a sleep aid and works better than CBD for general pain relief. The downside to CBN is it will make you drowsy but if that is what you wanted it will exceed expectations! 

Why Pairing with THC is so Beneficial 

THC will always be top of the food chain for cannabinoids when it comes to help with sleep, pain, stress and anxiety. Combined cannabinoids in a product will lead to a more well-rounded experience and a greater likelihood of achieving desired results. If you arn’t worried about trying THC or have a job that prohibits it, there are THC options available. If you are using THC alone for non-recreational purposes, pairing it with CBG and CBN will show increased effectiveness.

 

Products You Should Try! 

In store we have a host of THC free tinctures to try but online we have two new products to address the need for CBG and CBN options. For those looking to reduce stress/anxiety or with soft tissue concerns we have a hemp-derived 10mg Delta 9 THC 10mg CBG 10mg CBD gummy. The 1:1:1 ratio provides a balance of all desired effects. These strawberry gummies are meant for daytime use but can also be used at night to help with minor sleep issues. It is the daytime “my body hurts but I have work to do” gummy. We have the same 10mg 1:1:1 ratio but paired with CBN for those with more chronic pain issues and serious sleep issues. These grape gummies are meant for nighttime use but can be used in the daytime if you have time to nap or won’t need to do much physical activity. It’s the “my body hurts, and I just need sleep so I can do all again tomorrow” gummy.  Both gummies come in a 30ct container for $40
