Description
CBG or Cannabigerol is one of the primary cannabinoids found within the cannabis plant, and one that is often referred to as a “parent molecule” thanks to the fact that it can subsequently convert into other cannabinoids. As the cannabis plant matures, sunlight, heat, and oxygen can convert CBG into CBD, CBC, and other cannabinoids. These cannabinoids can then play their own specific roles within our internal Endocannabinoid System (ECS). The primary role of CBG though is in its potential to stabilize emotional responses, minimizing issues such as stress, anxiety, and, in turn, depression. CBG may also promote homeostasis in our digestive system, aid in helping to reduce the level of pain we experience and boost mental clarity, and offer neuroprotective benefits. Basically, in layman’s terms, CBG is like a super-charged version of CBD – offering a wider array of potential benefits to your system.
Our Keylife CBG Gummies provide you with 25mg of individually dosed CBG in every serving with 30 servings in each bag, providing you with at least 750m of CBG total. The gummies come in a variety pack of four tasty fruit flavors of cherry, tangerine, lemon, and Key lime, making them a delicious and convenient way to supplement your daily intake of cannabinoids.

Organic Sugar – Provides sweetness and flavor to the gummies.
Corn Syrup – Works as an additional sweetener and acts to prevent the sugar from crystalizing, maintaining the texture and overall structure of the gummy itself.
Modified Food Starch – Helps to produce the chewy texture of the gummies.
Fumaric Acid – Provides sour notes to partner with the sweetness in the gummy.
Citric Acid – Emboldens the other flavors used.
Phytocannabinoid Hemp Extract – All natural and organic hemp extract, produced entirely in the U.S. Contains no GMO’s, pesticides, or heavy metals. Each individually dosed serving contains at least 25mg of CBG cannabinoids in every gummy.

Emotional Responses
CBG can impact the way our body produces emotional responses by increasing the number of fatty acid messenger molecules referred to as anandamide, which helps to regulate systems involving depression, memory, and pain.1 CBG also functions as a GABA reuptake inhibitor, regulating serotonin levels, potentially decreasing the effects of anxiety.2, 3 Overall, CBG shows great promise in minimizing levels of stress, depression, and even obsessive-compulsive behaviors. |
|
Gastrointestinal Health
Studies have shown that a reduced level of cannabinoids within our own gastrointestinal systems can result in a potential increase in health issues such as gut inflammation and discomfort. Luckily, we can supplement our own cannabinoid levels through dosing to help decrease or minimize these effects.4 CBG has also shown promise in mitigating inflammation in the colon by reducing levels of nitric oxide.5 |
|
Pain Perception
Just like CBD, CBG can help to minimize the effects of how we feel pain in our body, increasing our tolerance of symptoms or ailments that can cause discomfort. CBG can offer potential relief for both neuropathic and chronic types of pain. |
|
Ocular Pressure
CBG helps to regulate the ocular pressure of our eyes and prevent an excessive increase caused by an over-accumulation of fluid.6 This means that CBG could help to prevent conditions such as glaucoma, which if left untreated can eventually lead to loss of vision. |
|
Neuroprotective Benefits
CBG can help “attenuate the upregulation of proinflammatory markers,” and improve “the levels of antioxidant defenses” within the brain, meaning it may help it prevent the early-onset of nerve damage and breakdown, in turn improving cerebral health and function.7 CBD can assist in the regulation of neurogenesis after birth “due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities and the modulation of a large number of brain biological targets (receptors, channels) involved in the development and maintenance of neurodegenerative diseases.”8 CBD has thus shown “beneficial effects in AD [Alzheimer’s disease], PD [Parkinson’s disease] and MS [multiple sclerosis].”8 |
|
Antibacterial Properties
CBG may also offer applications as antibacterial treatment and help to fight infections within the body.9 Studies indicate that CBD and CBG are both viable antibacterial and anti-fungal agents. Both cannabinoids can assist in the elimination of staphylococcus and streptococcus in addition to helping permeate biofilm, the layer that surrounds the exterior of many bacteria and slows antibiotic absorption. Studies have also shown that cannabinoids can have a significant impact against methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus or MRSA, meaning they could show promise as an effective alternative to the types of antibiotics that are typically prescribed.10 |
