Creo CBG

Creo CBG is sometimes called the “mother cannabinoid” or “skin cannabinoid”, is the parent molecule from which other cannabinoids are made in both marijuana and hemp. But since it’s mostly converted into other cannabinoids, such as THC and CBD, very little of it remains intact in the plant (typically <0.5% by weight). Due to its scarcity, up until now, customers and patients have struggled to access the benefits of this important non-intoxicating cannabinoid.

Discover Why Cbg Is Creating So Much Buzz

In its acid form, CBG is the mother of all cannabinoids. It is the parent molecule from which all other cannabinoids are derived. Most recently, CBG has been gaining fame as “the skincare cannabinoid”. The European Union’s CosIng cosmetic database identified CBG as having “skin conditioning” properties. Currently, primary research is being conducted to investigate other potential properties of CBG including

  • Dental hygiene
  • Lipid (sebum) synthesis
  • Antibacterial
  • Skin inflammation
  • Keratinocyte proliferation
