From CBD to CBN, each cannabinoid offers unique benefits. Learn what makes each one special and how to choose the right cannabinoid for your needs.
Cannabis plants contain over 100 different cannabinoids, each interacting with your body's endocannabinoid system in unique ways. While CBD and THC are the most well-known, minor cannabinoids like CBG, CBN, and CBC are gaining attention for their distinct therapeutic properties. Understanding these differences helps you make informed choices for your wellness.
**CBD (Cannabidiol):** Non-intoxicating, calming, great for anxiety, pain, and daily wellness. **THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol):** Psychoactive, relaxing, powerful for pain and sleep but causes a "high." **CBG (Cannabigerol):** The "mother cannabinoid," energizing, focus-enhancing, anti-inflammatory. **CBN (Cannabinol):** Mildly sedating, best for sleep, forms when THC ages. **CBC (Cannabichromene):** Non-intoxicating, mood support, works synergistically with other cannabinoids. **Full Spectrum:** Contains all cannabinoids working together (entourage effect).
For anxiety & daily wellness: CBD or Full Spectrum. For sleep: CBN or Dream Melts. For focus & energy: CBG. For pain relief: CBD + THC combination or topicals. For beginners: Start with CBD-only products before exploring THC. Match the cannabinoid to your primary wellness goal for best results.
