Canna-Caps
Dr. Paul Hornby
Canna-caps are standardized, quality controlled, activated natural product cannabis capsules.
Standardization means that each cap contains the same dosage of a major active (11 the prep. In the case of canna-caps they are standardized to the dosage of 'IHC, which is by far the most abundant active in the capsules. So, each capsule contains the same amount of THC . Also km own, but not displayed on the label is the amount Of cannabidiol ( CBD ) and cannabinol ('CBN ) in each cap.
By quality control we clean that the raw material that goes into the caps is tested for heavy metals (lead, arsenic, mercury, chromium 6 and ), pesticides ( those commonly used in cannabis growing, such as avid ) and pathogenic bacteria salmonella E. coli, coliforms etc). Total of these tests, heavy metals and bacteria are Laplace in qualified laboratories outside of the Green Cross, whereas pesticide and stand ordination are performed in-house. The latter two tests are done using an instrument called High Pressure Liquid chromatography (HPLC ) that allows tile analyst to indetify and quantify principle compounds in a mixture In this way we can locate, identify and quantify pesticides that may be in the prep plus using a different HPLC method we can identify and quantify the or cannabinoids present in a bud sample or raw material that is going into capsules.
by activated natural product cannabis capsules we are refering to decarboxylation Of the various cannabinoids decarboloxylation simply cleans removal of carbon dioxide from the cannabinoid molecule we will use THC as the example. in nature THC exists as an acid, with 'what is called a carboxyl group stuck on the molecule with the carboxyl group on, THC is not psychoactive remove it THC binds the receptor and we have the psychoactive effects. including pain relief, anti-tremor activity and appetite stimulation Without decarboxylation, these effects do not Occur, The sauce, holds true for 'the other cannabinoids such as CBD and CBN, decarboxylation must occur to activate the molecule decaroxylation can be achieved through light energy chemical bases, or through heat.
Benefit of Cannacaps:
Canna-caps offer a health).' alternative to smoking cannabis. many persons using canna caps find that their smoking decreases significantly. A few caps a day provides a feeling of general well being, whereas persons in chronic pain find best relief administering every four to six hours. Canna-caps can be designed to suit individual needs, taking advantage of the strain specificity of cannabis and are often provided in an: pm formulation for day and nightime use, on calms-caps a person tends to eat good, sleep good and poop good, we maintain that oral cannabis is the medicine of the future and that as an herbal medicine standardized, natural product cannabis will be a leader.
