Learn CBD - THC, CBD, CBG, CBN (How Are They Different?) Unlisted Video

THC vs CBD vs CBG vs CBN: Explained:

THC – (Tetrahydrocannabinol)
Cannabis that contains higher levels of Delta-9 THC or Tetrahydrocannabinol is also known as marijuana, while cannabis with trace amounts of it is identified as hemp. While THC does get users "high", its reported wide range of health benefits include the simple ease of anxiety to major relief for cancer and AIDS patients. Currently, marijuana is legal for recreational use in 17 U.S. states and for medical use in 36.

CBD – (Cannabidiol)
Since this is the most popular of the phytocannabinoids, it is the first we will look at. This is categorized as one of the major cannabinoids along with THC. It is a compound that does not contain the psychoactive properties found in THC. It is generally derived from hemp plants (categorized as containing less than 0.3% THC). CBD has been studied extensively in recent years. While it has only been approved for use in treating epilepsy, there are studies being conducted to find the ability to manage:

● Inflammation (and the pain associated with it)
● Chronic pain (and general neurological pain)
● Skin conditions
● Anxiety
● Nausea
● Convulsions

CBG – (Cannabigerol)
While this is classified as a minor cannabinoid, it can be considered one of the most important. This is because all the other compounds in the plant derive from it. CBG and CBGA are converted into CBDA and THCA. This occurs when the plant is exposed to UV light and oxygen. In other words, while the plant grows in the sunlight, the other compounds begin to develop. Part of why this compound is considered to be worthwhile is due to how it interacts with the CB1 and CB2 receptors. Unlike with CBD, it acts like an agonist. It is also believed to act as a GABA uptake inhibitor. There are many studies that have been conducted by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) into CBG. These have shown the likelihood for the ability to use CBG for such things as:

● Neuropathic pain
● Inflammatory pain
● Colitis and other digestive issues
● Antibacterial properties

CBN – (Cannabinol)
The first to have been studied and synthesized is CBN. This is because it is a byproduct of when THC begins to degrade. Simply by letting a cannabis plant age, or by applying heat and oxygen, THC converts into CBN. While CBD and CBG do not contain psychoactive properties, CBN can potentially cause you to feel that same feeling of euphoria. The feeling is different than when you are utilizing THC, but it is to be avoided by those not willing to encounter psychoactive compounds. The majority of the research conducted suggests CBN for use as a sedative. It is also believed to have the ability to stimulate bone growth, according to NCBI. The other properties it is valued for include:

● Antibacterial
● Painkiller
● Anti-inflammatory
● Anti-convulsion
● Delaying onset of ALS
● Increase appetite
