CBG may be able to improve the following health conditions: Inflammatory bowel disease. CBG appears to reduce inflammation associated with inflammatory bowel disease (research in mice) Glaucoma. Medical cannabis appears to be effective in the treatment of glaucoma, and CBG may be responsible in part for its effectiveness. A study published in 2008 suggests that CBG may be effective in treating glaucoma because it reduces intraocular pressure. Bladder dysfunctions. Some cannabinoids appear to affect bladder contractions. A 2015 study looked at how five different cannabinoids affect the bladder and concluded that CBG shows the most promise in treating bladder dysfunctions. Huntington's disease. CBG may have neuroprotective properties in a neurodegenerative disease called Huntington's disease. The study concluded that CBG may be promising in the treatment of other neurodegenerative conditions. Bacterial infections. CBG can kill bacteria, especially methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), which causes drug-resistant infections. These infections are difficult to treat and can be quite dangerous. Cancer. A 2014 study examined colon cancer in rats and concluded that CBG may reduce the growth of cancer cells and other tumors. Anorexia. A 2016 study in rats concluded that CBG stimulates appetite. Appetite-stimulating cannabinoids can be used to help patients such as HIV or cancer.
