Cannabisverbindungen können eine Fettlebererkrankung heilen. Wissenschaftler fanden heraus, dass sowohl CBD (Cannabidiol) als auch CBG (Cannabigerol) die Blutzuckerkontrolle verbessern, Leberfett reduzieren und die Blutfettwerte bei fettleibigen Mäusen senken können.

>The cannabis plant contains two powerful compounds that may reverse fatty liver disease in mice without causing any intoxication, according to new research.
>The [study](https://bpspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bph.70387), led by scientists at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in Israel, found that both CBD (cannabidiol) and CBG (cannabigerol) can improve blood sugar control, reduce liver fat, and lower blood lipid levels in obese mice.
>Strangely enough, both plant compounds achieved these results mostly independent of classical cannabinoid receptors, which are key regulators of communication between the gut and liver.
>Instead, daily injections of either CBD or CBG into the abdomen of mice enhanced the production of phosphocreatine, a form of creatine released by the liver to help replenish energy supplies and maintain cellular health.
>After mice were fed a high-fat diet, CBD and CBG restored some of their liver function after four weeks.
>CBG proved particularly effective, reducing body fat, lowering ‚bad‘ cholesterol, and increasing insulin sensitivity in obese mice significantly more than CBD.
>“Our findings identify a new mechanism by which CBD and CBG enhance hepatic [liver] energy and lysosomal function,“ says pharmacist and senior author Joseph Tam.
>“This dual metabolic remodeling contributes to improved liver lipid handling and highlights these compounds as promising therapeutic agents for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).“
I love this research. However, fatty liver disease has so many other risk factors that you can minimize such as drinking in moderation, controlling your weight, regular exercise, and having a good diet; that smoking / ingesting CBD to reverse fatty liver disease would be almost a marginal proposal in the context of this illness
My anecdotal evidence suggests that this is countered by uncontrollable desire to eat food until way after full while high. it’s called „the swine“ (свин) in russian
It is a nice side effect. I addition to all of the other ones such as reducing anxiety and with cbg just a general uplift. I prefer it to thc honestly. Especially bc it does not hurt my sleep quality.
