Should Cannabis Be Legal Pt 2

I will be adding more to this blog post in the near future. Here are some Images taken from OpenSecrets.Org on Marijuana Legalization. 

I AM tracking Money In Politics for Marijuana Legalization to determine if Politicians are being influenced by the Donors with their Financial Contributions.

The following images are for the National and State Political Scene.

Fractionating Distillation Apeks Supercritical

Hemp Environmental Forum is with Apeks Supercritical.

 

Apeks Supercitical clears up the confusion between fractionating and distillation - CO2 Extraction

 It's possible there is some confusion between fractionating and distillation.

Stages of extraction

Extraction - includes fractional extraction.

Winterization.

Distillation.

Health Ranger to Offer Cannabis Testing 2018

_________________________

Who performs independent testing on your Hemp and Cannabis CBD and Hemp Oil products? Do you test for Pesticides, Heavy Metals, Fungicides, and other contaminants? 

With the great phytoremediation and phytoextraction qualities of the Cannabis Plant see [ElectroHemp Bio Rad] it is better to be safe than sorry.

Peering into my crystal ball on the future of Cannabis for Human Consumption. Lack of testing could hurt the Cannabis Industry as a whole.

I would feel safer if more Canna business used an Independent Testing Services for the Cannabis products they sell. Scotty 

Certifying CBD products to be authentic, clean and green

This new service, to be launched by CWC Labs, is designed to help consumers recognize safe, high quality hemp extract products that are independently verified by a third party laboratory to be authentic, clean and green. Product certification involves multiple tests on three different mass spec instruments, including ICP-MS and HPLC-MS-TOF.

As one of the pioneers in cannabis quantitation and validation, I am the co-author of a science paper published in the LC/GC science journal entitled, “Liquid Chromatography–Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry for Cannabinoid Profiling and Quantitation in Hemp Oil Extracts.” Since that science paper was published, my lab has developed even more precise mass spec analysis techniques that allow us to validate the following properties of CBD oil / hemp extracts:

• Accurate quantitation of CBD, CBDA, THC and other compounds typically found in hemp extracts.
• Molecular verification of accurate molecules, eliminating any possibility of counterfeit chemicals. (Using a combination of accurate mass, ion fragmentation, isotopic abundance, etc.)
• The absence of pesticides, herbicides, fungicides and other agricultural chemicals. (This is a huge issue, as many hemp products sold today are derived from cannabis plants that are heavily sprayed with toxic pesticides.)
• The absence of toxic solvents and extract chemicals that are frequently used in the industry even though they may pose a very real danger to consumers. Some hemp production companies, for example, are currently extracting hemp products using isopropyl alcohol (IPA), which is extremely toxic to the human body when ingested.
• The absence of toxic heavy metals, and the presence of nutritive minerals such as zinc and magnesium.

In other words, we are testing CBD products for not just CBDs, but also for pesticides, industrial chemicals and heavy metals as well.

Support SB822 Missouri Cannabis Legislation

I appreciate your support of Senate Bill 822 which Modifies provisions relating to hemp extract: 

It would be helpful to contact the committee chairman and the rest of the committee  support the SB822- this will assist in getting the bill passed!

Veterans’ Affairs and Health

The Committee on Veterans’ Affairs and Health shall consider and report upon bills and matters concerning veterans’ affairs. The committee shall also consider and report upon bills and matters referred to it concerning health, MO HealthNet, alternative health care delivery system proposals, public health, disease control, hospital operations, mental health, developmental disabilities, and substance abuse and addiction.

Senate Bill 822 Offical Link would allow people with cancer, HIV, AIDS, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord damage, inflammatory bowel disease, neuropathies, Huntington’s disease, post-traumatic stress disorder, or certain specified symptoms or complications associated with these conditions, to have access to CBD oil.

The oil must be recommended by a neurologist or physician.

The Department of Health and Senior Services would be required to establish a public registry of physicians and neurologists who recommend hemp extract for the patient’s use.

This is the second year legislation has been filed seeking to expand the number of medical conditions that can be treated with CBD oil in our state.

CBD oil has been shown to reduce nausea and vomiting, suppress seizure activity, and combat inflammatory disorders, neurodegenerative disorders, tumor and cancer cells, and anxiety and depression disorders. Research has also shown that CBD inhibits the proliferation of cancer cells, and has found that CBD can be used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, autoimmune diseases, nausea, bowel disorders and diabetes.

It is important to remember, that unlike THC, the compound in marijuana known for its mind-altering properties, CBD oil does not produce those side effects and is not a psycho-active drug.

There are real medical benefits from CBD oil, something scientists have supported for years. Studies have shown it can be incredibly effective in lessening the severity of symptoms for a whole host of chronic conditions. Legislation has been passed out of this very body, and signed by the governor, allowing those with intractable epilepsy to use CBD extract to help treat their illness. There is no reason to only allow certain patients to benefit from what has been recognized as a legitimate form of treatment. The legislation would allow citizens suffering from cancer, Parkinson’s, and numerous other tragic diseases to have the option of using a natural substance to reduce symptoms.

This measure would require the department to issue a card to a patient who has a recommendation from a physician or neurologist stating they would benefit from treatment with hemp extract. The bill also expands the number of licensed cultivation and production facilities in the state from 2 to 10.
