What Are The Best Hemp Products?
Hemp products vary significantly, and you cannot assume that one works as well as the next. There are many companies who now offer Hemp products, so it is best to understand what it is you are looking for. There are two types of products on the market today.
1. Many products are what is called “Hemp isolates”. These contain chemically synthesised Hemp that has been isolated in the laboratory.
2. Some companies add some terpenes to their isolates and call them broad-spectrum. Often these terpenes are either synthetic or from a source other than hemp.
3. Other Hemp products, like ElleVance’s, are made from complete hemp plant extracts, often blended in a carrier oil to achieve the desired potency. These hemp extracts each have unique combinations (called a profile) and different strengths. The quality of the extract is controlled by the specific hemp cultivar used, the growing conditions, the extraction process used, and how the product is stored. You cannot assume that one is the same as the next.
Many scientists believe that a broad-spectrum hemp extract can be move impactful than Hemp isolate, due to a mechanism called the Entourage Effect, whereby the different components act synergistically on different biological pathways.
What is the Entourage Effect?
The Entourage Effect
Scientific studies have shown that a broad-spectrum hemp extract can be move impactful than Hemp isolate. This increased response is due to a mechanism called the entourage effect, whereby the different components act synergistically on various biological pathways.
Potency
Furthermore, some Hemp products contain a much lower concentration of active ingredients. While these products tend to be cheaper, they also provide less mg of Hemp per ml, meaning you should expect much lower effectiveness too.
Presentations
You may have seen creams, sweets, oils and even coffee as a method of taking Hemp. While the best form will vary from person to person, it has been demonstrated that orally is the best way to take Hemp. Products such as oils and capsules make it much easier to see how much you are taking and therefore, you can control the dose that works best for you.
Authenticity
As it currently stands, the industry remains somewhat unregulated. Unfortunately, this means many companies can offer what appears to be the same product at wildly different price points. The difference in these products generally lies within their quality and strength.
To ensure you are getting an authentic Hemp product is essential to research the company beforehand. You can read about the quality of ElleVance products here or contact us on [email protected] if you would like to know more.
