What is CBG?
CBG is considered to be the precursor or a “stem cell” to other cannabinoids. CBG is the parent molecule to the most notable cannabinoids, THC and CBD. In other words, CBG is needed to form the other 150 cannabinoids in the plant.
CBD and CBG are both nonintoxicating cannabinoids, meaning they won’t make you high.
CBG is rich in antioxidants, which help fend off free radicals that can prematurely age the look of skin. It also boasts antibacterial and antifungal properties to help reduce and soothe acne and other skin inflammations.
CBG provides a notable ability to help skin cells retain moisture. As part of the skin’s natural aging process, this ability weakens, but CBG not only boosts moisture, it encourages balance to keep skin well hydrated and more youthful looking.
Furthermore it helps other useful ingredients penetrate deeper into the skin. Which means the magic of HeadPlant penetrates deeper for stronger results!
CBD soothes inflammation, which is the backbone of HeadPlant. It helps calm acne, reduce fine lines, heal afflictions, and can help counteract the look of aging. Think of CBG as a complement to the already powerful payoff of using CBD. Long-term benefits will only continue to mount as your skin receives its daily dose of HeadPlant in your natural routine.
