How To Think About It

Useful distinctions before interpretation.

Insufficient evidence
Evidence maturity

CBD currently has deeper human and safety-review coverage; CBG is more early-stage and mechanism-heavy.

Reader intent

CBD pages are often better for broad consumer questions; CBG pages are useful when someone wants minor-cannabinoid biology.

Safety posture

Both routes should send readers through interaction, sedation, liver, and product-quality context before product decisions.
