The Latest Research on Minor Cannabinoids: CBG, CBC, and Beyond - Unlocking the Full Potential of Cannabis
For decades, research on cannabis has largely focused on the two major cannabinoids: THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol). However, a growing body of scientific investigation is shedding light on the fascinating world of minor cannabinoids – compounds present in smaller quantities within the cannabis plant but potentially wielding significant therapeutic properties. This article delves into the latest research on some of the most promising minor cannabinoids, including CBG (cannabigerol), CBC (cannabichromene), and others, exploring their potential benefits and the exciting future of cannabis science. Beyond THC and CBD: A Treasure Trove of Compounds The cannabis plant is a complex chemical factory, producing over 100 different cannabinoids, each with a unique molecular structure and potential interaction with the human endocannabinoid system (ECS). While THC's psychoactive effects and CBD's non-intoxicating therapeutic potential are well-documented, researchers ...
