Extraction Process

As the therapeutic use of cannabis continues to gain acceptance so too does a demand for safe and consistent products. Quality and consumer
safety begin with cultivation but are ultimately realized through the extraction process. Very few, if any, other cannabinoid extraction methods
can offer the medical grade purity and consistency of Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE). SFE is an organic chemistry procedure utilized for the separation of one component, the extractant, from a particular material, the matrix. SFE can either strip unwanted material from a product, such as the decaffeination of coffee, or collect a desired material, as is the case with CBD extract.

Although SFE is a highly sophisticated technique, the basic concepts can be explained as follows:

A fluid, most often carbon dioxide (CO2 ) as it is nontoxic, nonflammable and environmentally acceptable, is pressurized and heated to a specific condition where its material phase is not quite liquid and not quite gas. This condition is known as supercritical. The supercritical CO2 is then pumped into an extraction vessel where it quickly diffuses into a matrix and dissolves desired extractants. The supercritical CO2 and extracted material are then pumped to a separator where the pressure is reduced and the desired compound settles out. As the CO2 cools and depressurizes it enters a gas phase and leaves the extract without a trace.

FAQ

What is Cannabidiol?

Cannabidiol, or CBD, is one of the many cannabinoid compounds found in cannabis. Clinical research has shown the significant potential therapeutics benefits of CBD. Many consumers are finding CBD to be a safe and effective alternative to pharmaceuticals. Unlike many pharmaceutical medications, CBD is non-psychoactive which makes it an appealing option for patients looking for relief without disconcerting feelings of lethargy or dysphoria.

Self Healing

Discovered in 1992, the Endocannabinoid system (ECS) plays a substantial role in the regulation of many physiological and cognitive processes within the human body.
The ECS works in concert with other biological systems to correct imbalances and ultimately promote homeostasis.

Endocannabinoid Deficiency

Endocannabinoid deficiency can be caused by poor diet, lack of sleep, stress, and chemical dependancies. Like any metabolic deficiency, without proper amounts of endocannabinoids, our body can not achieve optimum health.
One way of combating endocannabionid deficiency is to supplement with phyto-cannabionoids. The highest concentration of phytocannabinoids can be found in the cannabis plant.
