Happy to be a part of the Botana team. The CBD market is quickly getting flooded with those types of people just trying to make a buck. They neglect the foundation of farming which is the soil sciences. Soil is actually alive. And when synthetic fertilizers and pesticides are used year after year it’s life force is extinguished, leaving behind depletion and waste. At Botana, we put a lot of attention on working with the soil, from companion planting, cover crops, natural mulching, and applying compost teas to feed the microbes in the living food web which free up mineral content in the rocks beneath our feet.
Another big problem on the market is isolates and distillates. The problem with those is that everything in nature works synergistically and when you separate and single out compounds they actually lose a lot of their potency. Popular brands that use isolates have to supplement with added terpenes often sourced from other plants. Studies have shown that full spectrum extracts of hemp are about 4 times more powerful than isolate. That means you’d have to take 32mg of CBD isolates to get the same effect as 8mg of full spectrum.
And it doesn’t stop there; Botana uses an ancient alchemical preparation method called spagyrics, which is only realistically feasible with a completely pure and organic plant, or else you’d just be concentrating the pesticides and bad fertilizers. Spagyrics is where the mineral salts are extracted from the plant body by burning, or what’s called calcination, then added into the alcohol extraction. From there an amazing reaction takes place: if you’ve ever seen baking soda and vinegar react it’s quite similar to what happens when the body of the plant (minerals) are recombined with the spirit of the plant (extract) to create a living tincture. During this reaction the carbon atoms are decarboxylated, rendering them much more potent, evolving and forming new terpenes. That’s right, the total level terpenes output is greater than the sum of the input!!!
Terpenes and minerals are the key to absorption and utilization of cannabinoids into the endocannabinoid system. We’re running a sale right now of 15-25% off and when you add in my code Jesse5 at checkout you’ll get an extra 5% discount. Free shipping, and with an order over 70$ you get a nice 100% hemp bag. This is a great chance to support a great company that’s doing everything the right way. As you know big pharma is trying to capitalize off of this movement and we have to strive to keep it grass roots and protect the integrity of the seed and the ground which it is grown on.
Feel free to dm me with any questions and for some more exclusive deals.
