A 2023 study examined the antimicrobial effects of cannabidiol (CBD) and cannabigerol (CBG) against bacteria commonly associated with skin conditions and infections. Researchers found that both cannabinoids were active against multiple bacterial species and biofilms, which are protective layers that make bacteria more resistant to treatment. The study also showed that CBD and CBG could […]

Cannabinoids May Help Reduce Inflammation Associated With Common Skin Conditions (Pub. Feb 2022)
A 2022 review examined the growing body of research on cannabis-derived compounds and their potential role in skin health. The authors found that cannabinoids such as CBD and THC interact with the skin’s endocannabinoid system, which helps regulate inflammation, immune activity, skin cell growth, and barrier function. Because many skin disorders are linked to disruptions […]
Cannabidiol (CBD) Shows Antitumor Activity in Melanoma Through Gene-Regulation Mechanisms (pub. Feb 2026)
Melanoma is one of the most aggressive forms of skin cancer, largely due to its ability to grow rapidly and spread to other parts of the body. In this study, researchers investigated how cannabidiol (CBD) affects melanoma progression by examining its influence on gene-regulation pathways involved in cancer cell survival and metastasis. Using laboratory experiments […]
