Image
  Cannabis blew up the internet recently when a study showed the potential benefits of specific cannabinoids to stop COVID-19 from entering human cells. One of the targeted cannabinoids, CBG, or cannabigerol, has been in the spotlight for its potential therapeutic benefits. But what is CBG, and why should you pay attention to this tiny molecule found in cannabis?  Where CBG Is Found To understand what CBG is, look no further than the label or COA of your favorite Haygood strain.
