What Is CBD Extraction?
CBD extraction is a critical process for CBD product manufacturers. Cannabidiol, commonly known as CBD, is one of the active ingredients in hemp and cannabis and has been shown to have many beneficial properties. CBD is meticulously extracted from the hemp plant in various ways, and each has its own benefits and drawbacks. Some methods are cheaper, but they also produce a lower-quality CBD extract. Other methods use harsh chemicals that can damage the CBD and reduce its effectiveness. Let’s look a bit more below at why CBD extraction methods matter.
Why Cheaper Methods Affect Your CBD’s Quality
When CBD is extracted using cheaper methods, it can often be done using harsh chemicals or solvents like butane or ethanol. These methods can damage the CBD and reduce its effectiveness. They also produce a lower-quality CBD extract that may not contain all of the beneficial compounds found in the hemp plant.
Why Harsh Chemicals Are Bad for Your CBD
Many cheaper CBD extraction methods use harsh chemicals like butane or ethanol to strip away CBD from the hemp plant. While these chemicals can do a decent job of extracting CBD, they also can damage the CBD and reduce its effectiveness. They may also produce a lower-quality CBD extract that doesn’t contain all of the beneficial, entourage-effect inducing compounds that naturally occur in hemp.
Why Danu’s CBD Extraction Method Is Superior
Our method is supercritical CO2 extraction, which allows all of the hemp’s terpenes, flavonoids, and phytocannabinoids to be preserved. Danu Wellness uses this proprietary extraction and purification process that involves supercritical CO2 to ensure only the purest, highest-quality CBD. This means that you get the full benefits of CBD without any unnecessary chemical interference.
What Is Nanoemulsion When It Comes To CBD?
For Danu Wellness’s Softgels, we progress our extraction one step further. In order to allow our softgels to be absorbed with excellent efficiency, we put our hemp oil through an additional process that turns the CBD into nano-sized emulsions.
