I’ve just returned from a few days’ trip out to the West Coast for business, and my two visits to dispensaries were both enlightening and concerning. First of all, the concerning part, but mostly from a cost perspective, what they are made of. Well, there really isn’t any way to tell what’s in there- aside from the marketing descriptions and the catch phrases like Resin and Distillate and Tincture- all solvent-rich extraction method concentrates from OK quality flower/stems/roots/sugar leaf and trim. In other words, the not-so-hot herbs are made into high-quantity distillates for use in edibles, beverages, and concentrates. With that said, I prefer products made with Rosin. Hash Rosin is preferable for what is called Nanotechnology. When you visit dispensaries, there is no real education in place to differentiate between the two, resin/rosin.
Why is there a difference?
Accessibility of Nanotechnology is the reason why you should be enjoying the high-quality edibles produced by companies such as Zen Cannabis (available in many states). But first, what is Nanotechnology and why is it important?
Bioavailability- how quickly the edible hits you, how strongly, and how predictably is essential. I want to know that a ten mg edible is going to have a specific “feeling”, each time, every time. I don’t want to get destroyed, nor do I want to have to “double up” my dose. The following is from the Zen Cannabis website:
Nanotechnology involves the manipulation of materials at the nanoscale, typically between 1 and 100 nanometers. At this scale, materials display unique properties that differ from their larger-scale counterparts. These properties include increased surface area, enhanced reactivity, and the ability to penetrate biological membranes more efficiently.
Nanotechnology is used across numerous industries, from electronics to medicine. In medicine, it has revolutionized drug delivery systems, enabling precise targeting of diseased cells while minimizing side effects. In the supplement industry, nanotechnology enhances the absorption and bioavailability of nutrients, ensuring that the body can utilize them more effectively.
One of the key benefits of nanotechnology is its ability to improve the bioavailability of active ingredients. Bioavailability refers to the proportion of a substance that enters the bloodstream and is available for use by the body. By breaking down substances into nanoparticles, nanotechnology ensures they are more easily absorbed by the body, leading to more effective results.
The reason why nano technology is so game changing is quality and enjoyment. No one wants an unpredictable experience. Nano technology makes each dose an experience for the betterment of your well-being. I recommend this technology and hope you will find Zen Cannabis products to be to your liking.
Typically, I don’t enjoy edibles because of their bio-availability problems. And my personal experiences baking brownies or cookies are problematic because of dosing. No one wants to get wrecked!
Fine products like the Zen Cannabis line make it easy for me to have a predictable experience and enjoyment of cannabis in more formats.
Their vegan chocolate bar, helpfully segmented into perfect little ten-milligram bricks, is delicious! Even diehard chocolate fans (like me) will be charmed. Ten milligrams is just enough to take the edge off, but never lose reality. Unless you want to eat the whole bar, then it’s up to you!
I never have trouble sleeping, but I took a couple of the NiteNite gummies the other night and don’t remember a thing. Who am I? Oh, it’s not that strong, but the overall experience was of fast, deep sleep. Isn’t that the reason why you enjoy gummies?
The flavors are true to form, and the textures are natural and fun. This is a very eclectic company that makes high-quality products that are simply made—with love. It’s obvious!
And the enlightening part?
Being able to sleep on a plane coming back from SFO without much trouble… with Zen Cannabis gummies of course!
