Driving Efficiencies in Formulation Integration, Bioavailbility and Onset
WATER SOLUBLE CBD CBG CBN
With the dramatic rising trend in CBD infused functional beverages, skincare and cosmetics, the need for raw ingredients that seamlessly blend into water-based formulations has risen as well.
Is CBD Water Soluble as Well as Other Minor Cannabinoids?
CBD Isolate and CBD Distillate are naturally hydrophobic, meaning they are oil-based and do not dissolve in water-based liquids. They certainly have their place in that they are ideal in oil-based formulations. However, not all formulations are oil-based, for example beverages or facial serums. For this reason, Red Mesa is introducing Water Soluble CBD, CBG and CBN for formulators seeking to create fast-acting, highly effective, versatile products across the wellness, food, beverage and skincare industries. CBD, CBG and CBN water-soluble ingredients are manufactured to target multiple health and wellness needs without requiring infused aroma or excess sugar or other taste-masking additives.
What is Water Soluble CBD, CBG and CBN?
Water Soluble CBD refers to cannabidiol that has been processed to dissolve quickly and efficiently into water or water-based formulations. This is achieved through advanced technologies that transform CBD oil into tiny particles, or nano CBD, to enhance stability and integration with liquids, while increasing bioavailability and uptake time. This same highly technical process is used convert CBG and CBN into Water Soluble CBG and Water Soluble CBN.
Why is Water Soluble CBD Beneficial For the End User?
Improved Bioavailability:
Bioavailability measures the efficiency and speed at which CBD is absorbed into your bloodstream, determining both the amount utilized and the rate of absorption. Water soluble CBD offers significantly higher absorption rates in the body with a direct pathway into the bloodstream. When consumed, the nano CBD oil can be rapidly absorbed through the mucous membranes in the mouth, esophagus, or stomach lining for a more efficacious result.
Avoidance of First-Pass Metabolism Requires Less Material to Be Effective:
Since water-soluble CBD can bypass the liver’s metabolic processes, it naturally limits CBD’s degradation or excretion, allowing for greater CBD absorption which can lower dosage requirements. With a larger proportion of the active CBD remaining intact and bioavailable, it may ensure a more effective and predictable dose, while also reducing material cost since less of the material is needed to target the desired effects in end-product manufacturing.
Faster Uptake into the Bloodstream:
Due to its small particle size, water-soluble CBD can easily dissolve within the membrane’s lipid bilayer and enter systemic circulation. As we know, the nano CBD size increases bioavailability which then results in faster onset times making it ideal for applications where quick effects are desired (i.e. beverages or sublingual tinctures).
Why is Water Soluble CBD Beneficial For Brands and Product Formulators ?
This enhanced bioavailability makes water-soluble CBD ideal for product formulators looking to develop innovative, high-satisfaction products such as functional beverages, smooth textured topicals, fast-acting tinctures and other wellness solutions.
Versatile Applications:
Water-soluble CBD easily blends into a wide range of products, including beverages, powders and other water-based formulations. This versatility allows brands to expand their product lines and target a variety of consumer needs.
Easy Integration into Water-Based Products:
Being water-compatible, it eliminates the need for additional emulsifiers or processing to produce clear, homogenous formulations like drinks, tinctures, or cosmetics without exhibiting separation or cloudiness.
Cost-effective:
Requires less CBD to achieve the same effects, offering cost savings to manufacturers.
