Toxicity Level | 2 |
Toxicity Explanation | Cannabigerol (CBG) is generally considered safe, as it's a non-psychoactive compound found in the cannabis plant. However, specific studies on CBG’s side effects are limited owing to the fact that it is in the early stages of research. Therefore, a rating of 2 is given, indicating a low level of potential toxicity. However, definitive conclusions about its toxicity can only be made after detailed human clinical trials have been conducted. |
Notes: Cannabigerol (CBG), a non-psychoactive cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant, has garnered attention in preclinical studies for its potential anti-cancer properties. Research has explored CBG's effects on various cancer cell lines, including its ability to induce apoptosis, inhibit cell proliferation, and potentially target cancer stem cells. While findings are promising, indicating CBG could influence pathways involved in cancer progression, conclusive evidence from human clinical trials is awaited to fully establish its efficacy and optimal use in cancer treatment.
