Premium Cannabinoid Wellness
Nuleaf Naturals CBG softgels are a convenient, tasteless and precisely dosed alternative to CBG oil. The same formula is simply encapsulated in a plant based softgel made from cassava root extract, purified water, and ethically sourced vegetable glycerin.
Nuleaf Naturals CBG softgels offer several advantages over CBG oil:
- Pre-measured dosage: Each CBG softgel contains a precise amount of CBG, making it easier to control your dosage and avoid overconsumption.
- Convenience: CBG softgels are easy to swallow and can be taken with or without food.
- Discreet consumption: CBG softgels are small and discreet, making them easy to take on the go.
- Improved absorption: CBG softgels are designed to dissolve quickly in the stomach, which can improve the absorption of CBG into your bloodstream.
- Longer-lasting effects: CBG softgels can provide longer-lasting relief compared to CBG oil, as they are absorbed more slowly by the body.
Full spectrum
NuLeaf Naturals proprietary genetics allow them to naturally create a whole plant hemp extract that is highly concentrated in CBG and contains significant amounts of additional cannabinoids like CBC, CBD, CBN, and more. Cannabinoids work synergistically with each other and are more effective when they are found together versus when they are isolated. This is known as the entourage effect.
- Size: 120 capsules/softgels

CBG (cannabigerol) oil is a relatively new product on the market, and research is still ongoing to fully understand its potential benefits. However, here’s what we currently know about CBG:
Potential pain and inflammation benefits – A 2008 review of the available evidence covered studies indicating that CBG may act as an agonist at the CB1 and CB2 receptors without causing any intoxicating effects. This review also pointed out that CBG may additionally act as a GABA reuptake inhibitor. These results indicate that CBG may have a relationship with both neuropathic and inflammatory pain. The usefulness of CBG for neuropathic pain was further explored by a 2018 study, indicating that interest in CBG for pain remains strong within the scientific community.
Potential digestive benefits – Limited preliminary research has been conducted into the potential digestive benefits of CBG. For instance, scientists have investigated the impact of this cannabinoid on colitis and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
Potential antibacterial benefits – Preliminary research has been conducted into the potential antibacterial properties of CBG. Scientists believe that there are sufficient grounds to further investigate the usefulness of this cannabinoid for bacterial infections.
Fighting Cancer Cells – In a 2014 study, researchers observed the effects of CBG on rats with colon cancer. They observed that CBG showed some promise in blocking the receptors that cause cancer cell growth and inhibiting the growth of colorectal cancer cells. They suggested that the use of CBG should be considered translationally in the cure and prevention of colon cancer
Huntington’s Disease – is a condition that causes a breakdown of nerve cells in the brain. In a 2015 study, researchers examined the potential neuroprotective properties of CBG and other cannabinoids in mice who had an experimental model of Huntington’s disease. It was observed that CBG acted as a neuroprotectant, protecting the nerve cells in your brain from damage. It also improves motor deficits and preserves striatal neurons against 3-nitropropionic acid toxicity. Furthermore, CBG derivatives showed also neuroprotective effects in models of Parkinson’s disease and multiple sclerosis.
Glaucoma – In an animal study, researchers found that CBG has therapeutic potential for the treatment of glaucoma. Researchers administered CBG to cats with glaucoma and noticed a reduction in eye pressure and an increase in aqueous humor outflow, a fluid produced by the eye which maintains eye pressure and provides the eye with nutrition
Appetite loss. A 2016 study on rats suggested that CBG could stimulate the appetite. Appetite-stimulating chemicals could be used to help those with conditions such as HIV or cancer
Potential skin benefits – It has shown great promise in retaining moisture levels in the skin, especially dehydrated skin. And because it keeps skin hydrated, it helps to combat those early signs of aging too. A 2016 study shows how CBG helps with dry skin, breakouts, reduces transepidermal water loss, and functions as a powerful antioxidant. CBG reduces and prevents irritation, itchiness, and redness. Our bodies naturally contain the endocannabinoid system (ECS), which essentially works to keep everything in balance. Relating to your skin, the endocannabinoid system helps maintain healthy skin function. CBG works with the CB1 and CB2 endocannabinoid receptors, which are located in the skin. Once CBG enters the epidermis (skin), it penetrates to the basal and subcutaneous layers where it helps calm inflammation, reduces blemishes, purifies pores, balances sebum (oil) production and assists with cellular turnover.
What is CBG
What are Cannabinoids?
Did you know the cannabis plant has over 100 cannabinoids e.g. CBD, CBC, CBG, THC that are being scientifically investigated for their health benefits? Cannabinoids have powerful anti-inflammatory and pain relieving properties that work naturally with the human body’s Endocannabinoid System to produce a wide variety of potential health benefits.
Cannabigerol (CBG)
Is a non-intoxicating cannabinoid found in cannabis. While it’s derived from the same plant as THC (the compound that causes a “high”), CBG itself is non-psychoactive. This means it doesn’t produce the same mind-altering effects. CBG is highly anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antioxidant.
CBG is known as the “The Mother Cannabinoid” because it is the genesis of many major cannabinoids derived from cannabis. The first identifiable plant produces Cannabigerol Acid (CBGA), the acidic form of CBG. CBG is derived from young cannabis plants because they contain higher amounts of CBG than fully developed plants. As the cannabis plant flowers, CBGA transforms into different cannabinoids like CBD, CBC, THC, & more. Essentially without CBG, CBD oil wouldn’t exist.
Supercharge Your Endocannabinoid System with CBG
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) comprises three component parts: endocannabinoids, cannabinoid receptors, and enzymes. These work together to create homeostasis, or simply put, a state of balance within the body’s internal systems. The ECS interacts with numerous parts of the body, constantly making precise adjustments in order to maintain a consistent state of equilibrium.
Endocannabinoids bond with different cannabinoid receptors in both the central and peripheral nervous systems, as well as in immune cells — the two primary receptors being CB1 and CB2. Then, special enzymes go to work, helping to break down any already-used or excess endocannabinoids, further assisting in maintaining homeostasis. Some of the key functions that the ECS helps to regulate include:
- Appetite
- Mood
- Stress
- Digestion / Gut health
- Memory
- Immune function
- Sleep patterns/sleep quality
- Temperature
- Pain sensation
- Inflammation
- Exercise-induced euphoria (pleasure/rewards)
