Nano THC and nano CBD: the future of fast-acting cannabinoids

Di: Contributor Culture

The world of cannabis products is evolving rapidly, especially in the edibles sector. One of the most exciting developments is the use of nanotechnology to create nano THC and nano CBD, as well as other cannabinoids. But what exactly are the ‘nano’ versions of these active compounds, and how do they work? Let’s dive into this fascinating world and explore why these innovations are making a splash in today’s cannabis community.

THC and CBD, the main active compounds of cannabis, are known for their psychoactive and relaxing effects respectively. Nowadays, the arrival of nanoemulsification technology has introduced a new dimension to cannabis products. This process, which is crucial in the pharmaceutical sector, is now being applied to marijuana, altering the usual way these cannabinoids are administered and experienced.

Cannabinoids are molecules that interact with certain receptors in the body, producing various effects. These can range from euphoria to drowsiness, pain relief, and all the wealth of properties cannabis has to offer in any of its forms. However, for users to feel any of these effects, the cannabinoids must be bioavailable, which means that the body must be able to absorb them. The more bioavailable a cannabis product is, the less amount is needed to experience the desired effects.

Therefore, bioavailability refers to the amount of a substance that actually enters the bloodstream and has an active effect. Traditional CBD and THC products, such as oils and edibles, have a relatively low bioavailability because they are lipophilic compounds, which means that they dissolve better in fat than in water. This poses a challenge when they’re ingested, as the human digestive system is mostly watery, so the absorption of cannabinoids is relatively slow and inefficient, which reduces their bioavailability.

And this is where nanotechnology comes in: By reducing the size of the THC or CBD particles, these cannabinoids become more soluble in water, which in turn facilitates their absorption into the body. And the result of all of this? Increased bioavailability, faster onset of effects, and a stronger, more noticeable sensation.

What is nanoemulsification?

The process of creating nano THC or nano CBD involves reducing cannabinoids to nanoparticles through emulsification and ultrasound techniques. Emulsification consists of mixing two liquids that cannot normally be mixed, such as oil and water, to form a stable compound. When oil and water are stirred very quickly, they appear to dissolve into each other; but the two substances will separate again after a certain time. A third ingredient, called a surfactant, can bind to the two otherwise immiscible liquids, and make it appear as if the oil and water are perfectly mixed. Mayonnaise, for instance, is made by emulsification.

Cannabinoids are usually hydrophobic, meaning they don’t dissolve in water. This feature is one of the main reasons why traditional cannabis oils take longer to be absorbed into the system, because they must first pass through the digestive system. However, when CBD and THC are nanoemulsified, their nanoparticles can be absorbed directly into the bloodstream, almost immediately after ingestion, thereby avoiding much of the digestive process.

Why is bioavailability important when using cannabis?

If you’re familiar with edibles, you’ll know that, most of the time, their effects take between 45 and 90 minutes to appear. It’s a very long time to wait, especially when you want immediate effects. The good news is that this slow onset of effects is not a problem with THC or CBD nanoparticles. Instead of an hour or more for them to work, edibles that use nanoemulsions take only a few minutes to take effect.

This is because the compounds are tiny and can enter the bloodstream through the lining of the mouth and stomach. Unlike traditional edibles that must physically pass through the digestive tract and then through the liver to metabolise, fast-acting THC starts the absorption process as soon as it reaches the tongue.

But do nano THC and nano CBD work?

Nano THC and other nanoemulsified cannabinoids work because they make it much easier for the body to access compounds without all the hassle of waiting for them to go through the digestive tract. In addition, they aren’t subject to the highly variable metabolism of each person or, for example, other foods that you may already have in your stomach.

Improved bioavailability also means a more consistent experience, often with a much smaller portion of edibles. Think about it: your body can absorb the much smaller particles long before the digestive tract gets to work. This means that less THC is flushed down the drain (so to speak), and you won’t need as much THC to feel the same effect, which could be beneficial for those looking to reduce their overall cannabis consumption.

All in all, edibles containing nano THC or nano CBD are more effective and more consistent alternatives; and their effects are delivered much faster than with a traditional edible. Nanoemulsions are also water-soluble, so it’s much easier to incorporate them into drinks – this is the new frontier that will illuminate the success of ingested cannabis!

Other practical benefits of nano cannabinoids

When it comes to products containing cannabinoids, it’s not just about what you consume, but how you consume it. Nanoemulsified cannabinoids provide several practical benefits that make them an innovative element for anyone looking to incorporate CBD, THC, or CBG into their routine.

One of the most obvious advantages is the improved control of dose and consistency. For example, imagine a gumdrop containing nano THC: you can start with just one and feel its effects kicking in pretty quickly. And, if you need a stronger effect, you can take another one without having to wait for hours to see how the first one affects you. This level of control is especially valuable when you’re using cannabinoids to improve your mood, or to find a bit of calm during stressful times.

Another benefit of nanoemulsified cannabinoids is their high level of convenience. Products like gummies, chocolates, or a simple drink are easy to take with you whether you’re at work, travelling, or just out and about. These products are discreet and easy to take anywhere without attracting any attention. And, because they dissolve and start to take effect so quickly, you don’t have to plan ahead like you might need to with traditional edibles or oils.

Above all, the development of nano THC and nano CBD products could lead to a greater acceptance of cannabis in society by providing a consumption option that’s more controlled, effective, and safe. Advances in encapsulation and controlled release technology could even allow cannabinoids to be integrated into standard medical treatments, further extending their therapeutic use.

Embracing the future of cannabis in microparticles

The cannabis industry is on the brink of a new era marked by responsible innovation. Producers and researchers are exploring the potential of nanotechnology to revolutionise cannabis products, making them more effective and potentially safer, to help transform the way we experience cannabinoids.

By increasing bioavailability, speeding up onset times, and offering more controlled effects, nano cannabinoids could be the key to unlocking the full potential of cannabis. Whether you’re new to this world or an experienced user, we’re sure that you’ll agree with us that there’s something really exciting about the enhanced benefits that nanotechnology can bring to the world of marijuana.
