Inflammatory joint conditions like rheumatoid arthritis involve immune system over‑activation that leads to pain, swelling, and joint damage. In this study, researchers used a collagen‑induced arthritis model in rats—a widely accepted laboratory model that mimics key aspects of human inflammatory arthritis—to explore how cannabigerol (CBG) might influence inflammation and related joint symptoms. The goal was […]

Cannabigerol (CBG) Shows Neuroprotective Effects After Ischemic Brain Injury in Animal Study (pub. Aug 2025)
Stroke and other forms of cerebral ischemia occur when blood flow to the brain is temporarily reduced, depriving neurons of oxygen and nutrients and often leading to memory loss, inflammation, and long-term brain damage. In this study, researchers investigated whether cannabigerol (CBG)—a non-intoxicating cannabinoid found in hemp—could help protect the brain following transient global cerebral […]
Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Cannabinoids in Neurodegenerative and Central Nervous System Disorders (pub. July 2025)
Many neurodegenerative diseases—including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and Huntington’s disease—are strongly linked to chronic inflammation within the central nervous system (CNS). This review examines how cannabinoids interact with both the nervous and immune systems and explores their potential role in reducing inflammation that contributes to nerve cell damage. Researchers highlight that […]
