CBD, THCA, CBG, CBN: understand everything about phytocannabinoids, the endocannabinoid system and the science behind premium products.
Introduction
The cannabis plant contains more than 140 cannabinoids identified to date. These chemical compounds interact with the human endocannabinoid system in various ways. The best known are CBD and THCA, but CBG and CBN are also attracting growing interest.
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a network of receptors present in the human body, discovered in the 1990s. It regulates many physiological functions and plays a role in homeostasis.
This system includes receptors (CB1, CB2), endocannabinoids produced by the body itself (anandamide, 2-AG) and enzymes responsible for their synthesis and breakdown. The phytocannabinoids in cannabis can interact with these receptors.
Mainly present in the central nervous system (brain, spinal cord). Involved in the modulation of pain, mood and memory.
Mainly present in the immune system, the bones and the intestines. Involved in the inflammatory response and immune regulation.
The Main Cannabinoids
Discover the properties and characteristics of each major cannabinoid present in our premium products.
THCA is the natural acidic precursor form of THC, present in the fresh plant. It is our specialty: we offer THCA-rich products with levels ranging from 40% to 85% (Badder).
THCA is the acidic form naturally present in the fresh plant.
CBD (cannabidiol) is the best-known cannabinoid after THC. its regulatory framework varies by country; our products show a Delta-9 THC level below 0.3%.
We offer a wide CBD range: hydro flowers, Crumble 99.9%, Shatter, Pollen and Terpsol. All laboratory certified and rich in natural terpenes.
CBG is often called the "mother cannabinoid" because it is from CBGA (its acidic form) that the plant synthesizes the other cannabinoids, in particular THCA.
Present in small amounts in most varieties, CBG is the subject of growing scientific interest. Some specialized varieties can contain high levels of CBG.
CBN is a cannabinoid that forms naturally during the breakdown of THC by oxidation. It is therefore more present in old or poorly stored products, and in some mature Indica varieties.
Its interactions with the endocannabinoid system are the subject of many studies.
