25 Jan CBG Gummies vs CBG Oil – what’s the difference
Summary:
- CBG (cannabigerol) is a cannabinoid present in the hemp plant (Cannabis sativa).
- Like CBD (cannabidiol), it is non-intoxicating, which means it does not get the user “high” like THC.
- There are multiple ways of consuming CBG. You can choose to take it in the form of CBG Oil, taken sublingually, or you can take it in digestible products such as CBG Gummies.
- The effectiveness is similar for both methods, but which is better?

Popular Ways of Consuming
When it comes to consuming Naturecan CBG, two popular options are CBG gummies and CBG oil. Both offer unique benefits and drawbacks, making it important to understand the differences between them before making a decision.
CBG Gummies
CBG Gummies are a convenient, discreet and beginner-friendly way to consume CBG, coming in a variety of flavours and are easy to take on-the-go. They’re an awesome option for those who may dislike the taste of traditional CBG oil, due to its sometimes potent flavour.
CBG Gummies also offer a precise dosage in each easy to consume gummies, making them a good option for those who are new to CBG or want to start with a small and accurate dosage.
Pros:
- Beginner-friendly and easy to take.
- Wide-variety of different flavours in each pot.
- Small and accurate dosage.
Cons:
- Gummies have a lower bioavailability vs CBG oils.
- May contain undesirable additives.
- Less desirable than faster acting product types such as CBG oils.
CBG Oil
CBG oil, on the other hand, is a more versatile option. CBG oil can be consumed sublingually (under the tongue) or even added to food and beverages utilising the dropper that comes with each bottle.
CBG oil also has a longer shelf life compared to CBG gummies as there are minimal ingredients, usually the CBG oil itself and a carrier oil. Additionally, CBG oil can be blended with other oils, such as coconut oil, to make it more palatable.
Pros:
- Easy to increase / decrease dosage
- Can add to food and beverages
- Longer shelf life than CBG Gummies
- Minimal ingredients.
Cons:
- Can be expensive vs CBG in other formats like CBG Gummies.
- Not as beginner-friendly or easy to consume as other formats of CBG.
CBG potential effectiveness
When it comes to effectiveness, both CBG gummies and CBG oil have similar possible benefits, as they both contain the same active ingredient. However, some people may find that with CBG, one method works better for them than the other. So, it may take some experimenting to find the best method for you.
In terms of dosage, CBG oil usually comes with a dropper, which makes it easy to measure the precise amount of CBG you are taking as well as following the suggested use on the label. However, CBG gummies usually come in a fixed dosage, which may not be suitable for those who want to increase or decrease their dosage.
In conclusion, whether you choose CBG gummies or CBG oil depends on your personal preferences. CBG gummies offer a convenient and discreet way to consume CBG, while CBG oil is more versatile and with a variety in dosage based on your individual needs. Both options have similar benefits and it may take some experimentation to find the best method for you. It’s important to always read the product label, consult with a healthcare professional and start with a low dosage, especially if you are new to the world of CBG.
