The Effects of Cannabigerol (CBG) on Skin Disorders - A Narrative Review

By Craig McKay

Are you wondering what the potential applicability the cannabinoid CBG has to dermatological disorders? 

 

Are you looking for a short narrative review that won't break the bank that has also been co-written by someone who holds a Ph.D. in medicine and pharmacology?

 

Maybe you have already started incorporating CBD into your topical products and wondered if its big brother, the lesser-known cannabinoid, CBG, is going to be even more effective in treating chronic skin issues? 

 

Regardless of why you are here, you won't be disappointed. 

 

We have conducted a detailed literature search in MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases using the following keywords, including synonyms, and all the possible combinations of them; cannabinoids, skin disorder, cannabigerol, cutaneous disorder. 

 

Relevant studies that reported a mechanism of action or a dermatological therapeutic effect of CBG, were included in this review. The 35 medical studies we reviewed are contained at the end of this paper so you can go off and study them in more detail if required.

 

As someone who co-founded Scotland's first cannabis cosmetics manufacturing specialist, Cannafull, and CBD beauty brand, Ascend, I know first-hand what it is like to be ahead of the curve. I truly hope you find this short paper useful in kick-starting discussions on how CBG will eclipse CBD's market-disrupting footsteps in monumental fashion. 

 

The big question is, will you embrace it early, or be left behind...

 

"There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things." — Niccolo Machiavelli
