Promethean BioPharma High CBD Emulsion Review | AusCannaReviews
The Australian Medicinal Cannabis market has an abundance of oils to choose from. The most popular carrier is MCT (coconut) oil. Other carriers used within the industry include olive, sesame, sunflower, and hemp seed-based oils.
Oils fall into three categories:
Full Spectrum - Contains all beneficial compounds naturally found in the cannabis plant.
Broad Spectrum - Contains all beneficial compounds naturally found in the cannabis plant, except for THC.
Isolate - Contains one particular cannabinoid in its purest form, and doesn't contain terpenes, flavonoids, or any other cannabis plant compounds.
Typically you’d shake your bottle, administer your oil sublingually, leave it there for about a minute, and then swallow. But if you’re like me, their effectiveness can best be described as hit or miss.
The problem with oils is that our bodies are mostly water; we all know water and oil don’t mix. We lose a lot of the bioavailability of our medicine because cannabis extracts themselves are oils. But on top of that, their carrier is also an oil, meaning we’re not absorbing as much as possible.
Enter the nanoemulsion!
What is a nanoemulsion? The concept is this… When you shrink a cannabinoid molecule and surround it with purified water, you dramatically increase its bioavailability by creating nanoparticles that can more easily pass through mucous membranes. Promethean BioPharma describes this medicine delivery method as enabling, “the medicine to be better absorbed by the digestive system following swallowing, and therefore more effectively delivered to the bloodstream where it can then make its way to your tissues and have its desired effect.” Promethean BioPharma also claims this allows their products to have a more rapid predictable onset while using less.
CBD and Balanced tinctures are generally prescribed for inflammation, seizures, nausea, anxiety, depression, migraines, and psychosis.
Review
Promethean BioPharma’s High CBD nano emulsion comes in a 60ml bottle with 17mg of CBD/1ml. The liquid inside the blue bottle is cloudy pink in colour.
I’ve been using Promethean BioPharma's High CBD nano emulsion for almost a year now and truth be told, it's the product that, in my opinion, has made the most significant impact on managing my migraines.
I find oils to be very unpredictable, which is why I opt for using a nanoemulsion instead. While oils can sometimes take hours before they kick in, I can typically start to feel the effects of a nanoemulsion in 15 to 20 minutes.
Similar to Promethean BioPharma’s High THC nanoemulsion, this product also has an unpleasant strawberry flavour. I usually mix it in water with a Hydralyte electrolyte tablet, but it can be taken on its own.
When taking Promethean BioPharma’s High CBD nanoemulsion regularly I experience lower levels of stress and anxiety. I also definitely notice a decrease in my general irritability. I genuinely believe that most individuals could benefit from integrating CBD into their daily routines.
This product is normally $190 but is currently down to $105. (There’s only one batch (20112) of Promethean BioPharma’s High CBD that was packaged on December 11, 2021.)
