CBGM Traits That Makes it Unique
The cannabis plant has around 85 compounds known as cannabinoids. These cannabinoids activate receptors in the human body and cause different health benefits. One of this cannabinoid is referred to as CBGM – Cannabigerol Monomethyl Ether.
Cannabigerol Monomethyl Ether Traits
CBGM is the popular member of the CBG group. Just like other minor cannabinoids, there is not enough research or information available about CBGM.
Cannabis plant found in northeast Asia contains the highest level of naturally occurring CBGM. Comparatively, it is still less amount than other cannabinoids. Interestingly, the same plants contain low levels of CBD and high levels of THC.
Is CBGM Unique?
Considering all the cannabinoids present in the CBG group, CBGM is among the only two compounds which are Ether. In other words, it contains an oxygen atom that is bonded with two alkyl groups. Not to mention, the molecules of ether resemble water and alcohol molecules.
Apart from chemical structure, there is not much information about what sets apart CBGM from other cannabinoids as well as members of the CBG group. However, there is more research going on and soon we will learn more about the potential of this compound.
Can CBGM Relieve Medical Issues?
Considering the little research that has been done so far, we know about CBGM chemical structure and its relation with different cannabinoids. This means we don’t know much about the CBG health benefits.
Indeed, there is a chance that CBGM might have medical benefits like other cannabinoids. Needless to say, different cannabinoids have different molecular structure and even a slight change in the chemical structure can have a significant impact on its effects on the human body.
To give you an idea of medical possibilities of CBGM, let us share with you two simple examples.
Firstly, CBD also has a counterpart known as CBDV. It has a slightly different chemical structure. Both of these compounds produce similar effects, even though CBDV particularly helps with some medical symptoms.
Secondly, THC also has a counterpart known as THC; it can produce opposite effects as that of THC. When it is used in a certain manner, it can easily suppress the appetite of a patient. This is something that no other cannabinoid can possibly do.
So the question is; can we know some medical conditions that can be treated with CBGM?
Well, even though there is a lot to be ascertained in terms of CBGM, we can guess some medical benefits or health conditions that can be relieved. If we consider that CBGM has comparable results as that of CBG then it can help patients with the conditions like;
- Severe nausea
- Glaucoma
- Chronic pain
- Crohn’s disease
- Psoriasis
- Arthritis
- Cancer
Remember we have conducted any particular study that would help us confirm these medical benefits of CBGM. CBGM is yet to be explored at a much deeper level. But what we can see clearly is that the compound seems to have great medical potential in terms of treating different disease symptoms.
