CBD and CBG Reprogram Liver Energy to Reverse Fatty Liver in Mice

TL;DR Summary
In obese mice fed a high-fat diet, CBD and CBG improved liver function, reduced hepatic fat, lowered blood lipids, and enhanced insulin sensitivity, with CBG generally more effective. The benefits appear to arise from reprogramming hepatic energy and lysosomal pathways rather than activating classic cannabinoid receptors, and were achieved via abdominal injections. While promising for MASLD, human relevance remains to be tested and CBD product quality is variable.
