NCT ID NCT05257044
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested whether cannabigerol (CBG), a compound from hemp, can improve mood, reduce anxiety, and ease stress. 38 adults who had used cannabis before took CBG or a placebo in a double-blind crossover design. Researchers also tracked side effects like sleepiness and dry mouth. The goal is to understand both the benefits and risks of CBG for mental well-being.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
cannabigerol (CBG)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a natural compound for easing anxiety and stress without serious side effects.
What could go wrong
This is a very early Phase 1 trial with only 38 people, so results may not apply widely. CBG could also cause sleepiness, dry mouth, or other side effects.
