I was a National Champion with the Florida Gators and played in NFL now I run my own CBD oil business… – The US Sun
Posted: August 26, 2023 at 4:07 am
AFTER winning two National Championships and spending six seasons in the NFL, a former Florida Gator has kickstarted his own business.
One of the stars of the long-awaited Netflix Untold docuseries on Urban Meyers' Florida Gators, titled Swamp Kings, former linebacker Brandon Spikes has lived a remarkably varied post-NFL life.

Originally from North Carolina, football offered Spikes a path toward a brighter future.
In the documentary, Spikes discussed his tough childhood, explaining how "Football was my way out. Out of it all."
In 2006 he headed for Florida, joining a Gators program that was on the rise under their young head coach.
Spikes went on to solidify himself as a legend down in Gainesville, winning two BCS National Championships while being named a Consensus All-American twice, and an All-SEC First-Teamer three times.
Come 2010, it was time for Spikes to take the next step, ultimately being selected in the second round of the NFL Draft by the New England Patriots.
He spent four seasons with the Patriots, starting 39 of his 51 appearances, racking up 286 tackles, twelve defended passes, and four forced fumbles.
In 2014, Spikes headed for the Buffalo Bills where he'd go on to play in all sixteen games that season, starting ten.
He subsequently returned to New England, although this proved to be an ill-fated move as he was released less than a month later after running into trouble with the law.
Spikes eventually pled guilty to having left the scene of an accident, as per The Athletic, and went on to miss the 2015 season.
The following year, while working as a certified credit investor, he reached out to his former head coach Bill Belichick for help.
"I wanted to give up. I really did until I reached out to Bill," he told The Athletic.
"I reached out to everybody, people I trusted and loved, and they just couldn't give me an answer why I wasn't in the league.
"So I was like, 'F**k it, I'm about to call Bill.' So I called Bill Belichick, and of course, he answered on the first ring."
Belichick put Spikes in touch with an agent, David Canter, who managed to get him a one-year deal back in Buffalo.
Eleven appearances later, and his time in the NFL came to an end.
Spikes' next career venture took him to Canter's agency where he worked for the post-career affairs department.
Meanwhile, he also founded SpikesCBDX, which produces CBD-infused creams, oils, and gels.
"Throughout my career in the NFL, I always wanted to help myself and other athletes avoid injuries and recover quickly, without medications and their side effects," Spikes wrote on their website.
"This was the driver behind the Spikes CBDX product line, creating products all athletes could benefit from."
Fast forward to 2023, and Spikes has gone on to enter a new chapter of his post-NFL career, as a student assistant coach for the Gators.
Speaking to FloridaGators.com, he explained: "I just want to bring value and basically get this thing back to how we left it. I've seen how it should be done.
"You don't come to Florida to be mediocre. The bar is set, and I will do everything in my power to enforce what is set here."

The ABCs of CBD: Cannabinoids in Dermatology and Skin Care – Dermatology Times
Posted: at 4:07 am
Cannabinoids (CBDs) are gaining popularity in both the skin care industry and the dermatology drug market and are becoming increasingly available to physicians and consumers. Cannabis-based personal care products suddenly seem ubiquitous all over the market, where CBD is a featured ingredient in everything from moisturizers and lotions to makeup.1 In medical dermatology, CBD has been studied in acne, eczematous disorders, lichen planus, melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancer, melasma, prurigo, pruritus, psoriasis, scleroderma and systemic sclerosis, and seborrheic dermatitis.2
Although some of these studies indicate a potential therapeutic benefit in skin disease, existing studies are, unfortunately, underpowered and lack rigorous design. Making matters worse, the federal government lists cannabis as a schedule I substance (defined as drugs with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse), which makes it very difficult to study CBD for medical purposes. In its last communication on CBD products in the current market, the FDA stated that the existing regulatory framework for CBD is not appropriate and that it will work with Congress to develop a safe and effective regulation strategy. Despite these issues, CBD may offer a promising new area of pharmacology for skin disease and skin care. Even if dermatology providers choose not to use or recommend these products, patients are asking about them during their office visits. Therefore, it is important to review the current evidence on CBD use in dermatology to understand its potential for treating skin diseases. It is also important to learn about the potential benefits of CBD in dermatology to better counsel patients in the office.
What Are CBDs?
CBDs are chemicals that exert their effects through cannabinoid receptors (CBRs). Multiple ligands exist for CBRs including endogenous endocannabinoids (such as AEA, 2-AG, PEA, and OEA), phytocannabinoids (produced in plants), and synthetic CBDs. The most notorious and well-known phytocannabinoid is delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinoil (THC), which is the psychoactive component of cannabis responsible for the feelings of euphoria, relaxation, heightened sensory perception, altered perception of time, and increased appetite.
Most CBDs are not psychoactive in the traditional sense. For example, many beauty products contain hempseed oil (cannabis sativa seed oil), which contains no THC. This is an important distinction to make because skin care products labeled cannabis can be misleading.
Not only are consumers confused on this topic, but health care providers are as well. A survey of 531 dermatologists found that 64% of respondents did not know that CBD is not psychoactive and 29% did not know that THC is psychoactive.3 Only half of the dermatologists on the Medical Advisory Board for the National Psoriasis Foundation believed that medical cannabis is safe for patients.4
CBRs have been discovered to exist on cutaneous nerve fibers, mast cells, and keratinocytes, and some evidence has shown that CBDs may directly stimulate keratinocytes and act on other important receptors such as PPAR-g (which regulates fatty acid storage and glucose metabolism).5 CBD has also been found to enhance adenosine A2A receptor activity, which downregulates hyperimmune states and decreases tissue inflammation.6
These basic science findings are encouraging and suggest that CBDs may be of benefit in a number of dermatological diseases, as well as for use in personal care products.
Cannabinoids continue to be of interest as they possess many characteristics that would seemingly make them a great fit for multiple dermatologic conditions: They are potentially anti-inflammatory, anti-pain, and anti-itch; can alter hair growth; can regulate epidermal proliferation; and can even decrease sebum production. In atopic dermatitis, acne, psoriasis, and hidradenitis suppurativa, there is a potential role for them, at least in theory, said Peter A. Lio, MD, clinical assistant professor of dermatology and pediatrics at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, Illinois, and also the author of the article Cannabinoids in Dermatology: Hope or Hype? featured in the Journal of Cannabis and Cannabinoid Research.
CBD and Acne
The pathophysiology of acne is a permutation of follicular hyperkeratinization, microbial colonization, sebum production, and inflammation. The endocannabinoid N-arachidonoylethanolamine glycerol (AEA) has been shown to cause sebocyte apoptosis at higher levels, thus targeting one of the key pathophysiological mechanisms of acne.7 Several in-vitro studies indicate that CBD could be a possible treatment option for acne through its regulatory effects on sebum production and sebocyte proliferation.8
One key study, conducted by Olah et al, investigated the effects of CBD on sebaceous glands in vitro.9 The researchers found that AEA (a type of endocannabinoid) was able to inhibit lipogenic actions of sebaceous glands in a dose-dependent manner by inhibiting lipogenic compounds such as arachidonic acid and a mixture of linoleic acid and testosterone. CBD was also found to prevent pro-acne mediators from elevating TNF-a mRNA expression and normalize the lipopolysaccharide-induced expression of IL-1 and IL-6. Furthermore, in a small, split-face study, male subjects applied 3% cannabis seed extract cream to 1 side of their face twice daily for 12 weeks. At the end of the study, researchers found skin sebum production and erythema were significantly decreased compared with placebo, with no notable adverse effects.10
Although larger-scale human studies and randomized, controlled clinical trials are needed in the treatment of acne with CBDs, these preliminary studies show promise in the use of CBD as an individual or adjunctive therapy for acne vulgaris. This may prove popular with patients who are seeking alternative, complementary, or natural therapies.
CBD and Atopic Dermatitis/Eczema
CBDs have been studied for the treatment of eczema and atopic dermatitis, which affects about 10% of the US population.11 Eberlein et al studied more than 2000 eczema patients in a large, multinational cohort study and found that applying a cream containing palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) resulted in a significant reduction in dryness, excoriation, pruritus, and erythema across the population. Impressively, 56% of patients stopped using topical corticosteroids by the end of the study.12 It is important to note that this study lacked a placebo group. Therefore, it is difficult to ascertain the therapeutic benefit of the PEA vs the emollient effect of the vehicle. Nevertheless, this study is promising for the use of PEA in the treatment of eczema, as another randomized, double-blind, comparative trial of 60 patients with eczema found that PEA/AEA emollient was associated with improved scaling, dryness, and itching at day 28 of therapy.13
Oral CBD has also been studied for this inflammatory skin disease. Callaway et al found that oral hempseed oil improved AD in a randomized crossover study demonstrating a significant decrease in skin dryness, itchiness, and use of topical medications compared with olive oil.14
CBD: Emollients and Skin Care
CBD has been gaining popularity as a cosmetic material because of its reported emollient and anti-inflammatory properties. Through an examination of online search trends, a 2019 study found that consumer interest greatly increased in topical CBD products from 2015 through 2019.15 CBD has been shown to increase dermal water content and skin turgor.16 CVS.com lists nearly 50 personal care products with CBD, including muscle relief creams, moisturizers, massage oils, facial cleansers, facial masks, antiwrinkle creams, bath salts, and eye serums.17 Sephora.com lists a $125 full-spectrum CBD luxury beauty serum, whose description states that whole plant cannabis molecules penetrate quickly to visibly calm redness, clear blemishes, and deeply restore.18
Research may support its use here, as well. A mouse model investigating the emollient effect of CBD found that a 1% CBD solution applied to the skin increased the dermal water content through upregulation of aquaporin-3.19 An in vitro study using normal human epidermal keratinocytes found that CBD is able to penetrate keratinocytes and reduce the oxidative stress caused by UVB irradiation and hydrogen peroxide.8
An ideal property of a moisturizer is to treat the pruritus associated with xerosis, and multiple studies have found that anandamide, an endocannabinoid, possesses antipruritic properties via inhibition of TRPV1 (an ion channel expressed mainly in nociceptive neurons of the peripheral nervous system).20
Future Directions
CBD represents an exciting area of pharmacology in the treatment of skin disease and for use in skin care and cosmetics products. CBD has been studied for the treatment of eczematous eruptions, skin cancer, pruritus, fibrotic skin diseases, acne, seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, and skin rejuvenation.20 However, most studies are either in vitro studies or clinical studies with only a small number of patients. Currently, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials for the use of CBD in dermatology are lacking. Preliminary studies show potential benefits but more, well-conducted trials are needed before we can offer definitive recommendations to patients. It is certainly possible that formulations of cannabinoids can be highly effective, and I remain cautiously optimistic about this. However, that means for nowwe are in a tough place and are not really able to recommend cannabinoid products routinely, in my opinion, Lio concluded.

Exploring the Connection: Does CBD Help with Depression and How? – babyboomers.com
Posted: at 4:07 am
In our fast-paced modern world, the spotlight on mental health and overall well-being is shining brighter than ever. Among the intriguing topics of discussion, CBD's potential role in easing symptoms of various disorders has captured significant attention. A burning question that's on the minds of many is: Can CBD really make a difference in managing depression? In this comprehensive guide, we're embarking on a journey to explore the potential link between CBD and depression. We'll dive into ongoing research, hear from those who've experienced it firsthand, and uncover how CBD might offer a helping hand to those facing the challenges of this pervasive mental health battle.
Depression isn't just a fleeting sense of unhappiness or letdown. It's a sophisticated mental health condition that has the power to impact every aspect of a person's life. Symptoms span a wide spectrum from persistent feelings of sadness and fatigue to a waning interest in activities that once sparked joy. In more severe cases, it can even lead to distressing thoughts of self-harm.
In the pursuit of effective treatments, researchers and healthcare experts are continuously seeking better ways to combat this multifaceted challenge. As a result, alternative remedies like CBD for depression have been gaining traction.
CBD, often referred to as cannabidiol, is a natural compound extracted from the cannabis plant. While it shares a connection with THC the compound responsible for that euphoric sensation CBD doesn't deliver the same intoxicating effects. Instead, it engages in a friendly chat with our body's endocannabinoid system, a complex network that orchestrates various bodily functions.
The intrigue around CBD's potential to help with depression stems from its interaction with this system. However, as with any exciting prospect, it's vital to delve into the research, step by step, before jumping to any conclusions. The journey of understanding CBD's role in managing depression is a thorough and evolving one.
The mechanisms through which CBD might address depression are diverse and still a subject of ongoing research. Experts have highlighted several potential avenues in which CBD could influence depression symptoms, emphasizing the need for further exploration into how exactly it might help.
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) plays a role in mood regulation and emotional responses. CBD is believed to interact with ECS receptors, potentially influencing the release of neurotransmitters associated with mood. By modulating the ECS, CBD might contribute to a sense of balance and well-being.
Imbalances in neurotransmitters, such as serotonin and dopamine, are implicated in depression. Some studies suggest that CBD may impact these neurotransmitter systems, potentially promoting a more stable mood. However, the exact mechanisms are still under investigation.
Chronic inflammation has been linked to various mental health conditions, including depression. CBD has demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties in preclinical studies, leading researchers to speculate that its anti-inflammatory effects might contribute to its potential as an antidepressant agent.
While the potential mechanisms of CBD for depression are intriguing, it's essential to evaluate the scientific evidence through a critical lens.
Numerous preclinical studies using animal models have explored the effects of CBD on depression-like behaviors. These studies have shown promising results, suggesting that CBD might exhibit antidepressant effects by modulating neurotransmitter systems and reducing stress-related responses. However, translating these findings from animal models to human experiences is a complex process that requires further investigation.
Human research on CBD's effects on depression is still in its early stages, but initial findings are encouraging. Some small-scale clinical trials and observational studies have suggested that CBD may help alleviate symptoms of depression. However, more rigorous research with larger sample sizes and placebo-controlled designs is needed to draw definitive conclusions.
Before considering CBD as a potential treatment for depression, it's crucial to keep certain considerations and precautions in mind.
If you or a loved one is considering using CBD for depression, it's imperative to consult a qualified healthcare professional. A mental health provider can assess your individual circumstances, discuss potential risks and benefits, and help you make an informed decision. CBD should not be used as a substitute for evidence-based treatments, and its use should be integrated into a comprehensive mental health strategy.
Not all CBD products are created equal. When selecting a CBD product, consider factors such as the source of CBD (hemp-derived CBD is preferable), third-party lab testing, and the presence of other ingredients. Reputable manufacturers provide transparency about their products' potency and purity.
CBD is generally well-tolerated, but some individuals may experience side effects. These can include dry mouth, changes in appetite, diarrhea, and fatigue. It's essential to start with a low dose and monitor your body's response. If you experience any adverse effects, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.
One of the most popular methods, CBD oil or tinctures, can be taken sublingually (under the tongue) for quick absorption. They're available in various concentrations, allowing users to adjust the dosage based on their needs.
For those who prefer a more traditional method, edibles, and capsules provide a convenient way to consume CBD. Do note that these methods might take longer to manifest effects due to the digestion process.
While more commonly used for pain or skin conditions, some individuals opt for CBD-infused creams or balms, applying them to specific areas for localized relief.
Starting with a low dose and gradually increasing is typically advised. Monitoring effects and maintaining consistency can be pivotal in determining if CBD is a beneficial adjunctive treatment.
So, does CBD help with depression? This question is one that continues to intrigue researchers, clinicians, and individuals seeking alternative approaches to mental health. While preliminary evidence suggests that CBD may hold potential as an adjunctive treatment for depression, more rigorous research is needed to establish its effectiveness and safety. If you or a loved one is considering CBD for depression, consultation with a healthcare professional is essential. As science advances and our understanding deepens, CBD's role in the realm of mental health may become clearer, offering new possibilities for those seeking relief from the burdens of depression.

Hulk Hogan reveals why he quit drinking alcohol – Yahoo Eurosport UK
Posted: at 4:07 am
Hulk Hogan has opened up about his decision to become sober.
The retired WWE wrestler recently spoke to Muscle and Health, telling the publication that after decades of drinking, he's finally "done".
"I've had a lot of practice drinking because I wrestled for about forty years, so those guys have a beer every once in a while," the 70-year-old star shared. "But about seven months ago, I decided not to drink any more alcohol. I was at a New Year's Eve party and saw a bunch of stuff that I didn't condone or like. I saw myself in this environment, and I went, 'You know what? I don't know how I got here, but I'm done.' It was just that one thing."
"It feels much better to be so clear-headed," the WWE Hall of Famer continued. "I'm no longer tempted to drink alcohol. I don't have an addictive personality. I mean, with anything. It can be business or people or alcohol or drugs. When I'm done, I'm done."
The former wrestler revealed he now favours CBD (cannabidiol oil), which he was introduced to by Ric Flair and Mike Tyson.
"It took me a while to figure it out because I am a little slow," he explained of using the substance. "I had to do a lot of research and do my due diligence," before adding, "I figured this was something that really would benefit a lot of people that needed help - and I know it will."
He added he believed CBD products could help people with their health, especially those returning from war, drug addicts, or "people who've got themselves into the prescription trap following illness or anxiety".

Many brands go overboard with the benefits of their male enhancement or CBD gummies. Some even claim that their supplement can increase penis size or penis length. There might be various benefits of consuming a male enhancement supplement, but it is nearly impossible to make this happen.
Every supplement on this list makes realistic promises like improving libido, erection quality, overall sexual health, and other benefits.

We chose only those male enhancement or CBD gummies that used natural flavors and had an impeccable taste. These gummies can improve your sex drive, sexual function, and penis health.
Most men prefer tasty and well-textured gummies with zero side effects and a well-rounded effect on your well-being.

‘We are all we have’: CBD business struggles – The Bay’s News First – SunLive
Posted: at 4:07 am
When the night is done at her familys Turkish restaurant Seyda Coskun goes home, washes off the kebab oil from her shift and frets. Its like this most nights and has been for some time.
As one of the remaining stores on Downtown Taurangas Devonport Rd, this is the harsh reality for those trying to make ends meet with a struggling business in a cost of living crisis.
While all passer-bys might see are shopfronts among For Lease signs, and construction sites there are whole worlds of financial stress, waning hope and family burdens that toil within these businesses.
Turkish restaurant and family business Abrakebabra opened in 2008 on Devonport Rd.
Abrakebabras manager Seyda Coskun says: Back then the street was a lot more profitable.
We actually existed back then. Years ago the environment was a lot more lifted. It was happy and people were more willing to spend money.

More hours, no paychecks
Now, the business is taking it week-by-week. Seyda says the businesses is struggling with a lack of customers due to ongoing construction sites and lack of CBD parking.
Our family is working far more hours and were not taking home pay cheques anymore because our staff need the pay cheques.
She says restaurant losses are 40-45 per cent some weeks. With financial stresses and personal bills to pay, Seyda says its impossible to switch off from the business.
It never goes awaymost nights Im just worrying because its a family business and it means a lot more than just working for another company. We are all we have. You go home, take a shower, and you wash all the oil and the kebab off you and just worry. Its awful.
Construction continues
Ongoing construction work on Devonport Rd and Elizabeth St is a huge problem for downtown businesses, says Seyda.
Were not getting any notices when parts of the road are all blocked off. There is no compensation available...so were out of pocket.
Devonport Rds construction sites include private developments and council projects. Tauranga City Councils future office block at 90 Devonport Rd is expected to be complete early-2025.
Seyda says it would help customer foot traffic if construction work took a staggered approach.
Itd be great if they could tackle one part of the city first, even one half of the street, then the other.
While we will try to mitigate disruption where we can, we do need to balance it with making sure the transformation can take place as quickly as possible so we can get the heart of our city pumping again and local businesses can start benefiting from that," says Tauranga City Council's general manager of city development and partnerships Gareth Wallis.
Carpark spots and costs
Seyda says the CBD parking situation is also damning business on both customer and staff fronts.
If customers can even find a park, theres then the parking charges themselves and theyre quite expensive. Cost of living as you know is going up. Our staff are leaving because they cant one, find a park; and if they can its too expensive which is just damning all of our businesses again.
Gareth says TCC has been closely tracking city centre parking availability.
Recent data from June 2023 shows, on average, only 50-60 per cent of on-street carparks are being used Monday-Friday. In parking buildings, during peak hours, no more than 70 per cent of carparks are used at any given time.
Short-term plans are also progressing to develop a temporary carpark at 160-176 Devonport Road."
Business strategy
Tauranga Business Chamber CEO Matt Cowley met with struggling downtown businesses last week.
Some businesses need help with business strategy to diversify their revenue sources, some need help with cash flow forecasting as their liquidity run-way is month-to-month, others need help renegotiating leases with landlords. The two most common issues are worsening lack of parking and the growing antisocial behaviour.
Seyda says antisocial behaviour in the CBD, making customers and staff feel unsafe, isnt helping business either.
So is there enough support for these CBD stores who have been in our community for years? Matt says if youre city centre business, the answer is: No.
If youre a ratepayer in other parts of Tauranga whod be paying for the support, then maybe. Ultimately, if you ask a CBD business owner what support they want the most, its more carparking.
Gareth says council has been implementing several short to medium term solutions to support local businesses at this time, through the City Centre Development Incentive Fund.
Some of these initiatives include: partnering with Tauranga Business Chamber to provide free targeted support and mentoring to each businesss unique situation; and funded access to the Business Navigator programme managed by Mentoring NZ to ensure city centre businesses have expert advice and resources to get through this period of development," says Gareth.
"The unfortunate part of that is that it takes us away from the business and we cant leave the business theres just no staff so it makes it a bit tougher on families," says Seyda, in regards to business mentoring support.
"I appreciate it takes time to do anything. I just think they [TCC] need to appreciate weve already given them a lot of time and theyve caused us nothing but worry. No reassurance. No support. No real change.
Support local
Downtown Taurangas Chair Ash Gee says the community is encouraged have the Covid-19 support local mind-set towards downtown businesses.
Continue to support your favourite businesses in the city centre that may be just a little bit harder to get to presently. Community support is required to help get our city centre businesses through this transformation phase.
Abrakebabra doors remain open, while other businesses of Devonport Rd have shut up shop.
Its really sad, and its kind of a reminder that that could happen to us which is really hard driving past all the closed businesses every day. It makes you think that really could be us, and who knows in however much time. Its quite scary.
Seyda and her family have started a petition for people to support downtown businesses.

While CBD products derived from the hemp plant (Cannabis sativa) are legal on a federal level in the U.S., some states have specific laws, so you'll want to check your state's laws to be sure.
The best CBD oils for cats with anxiety
Many people struggling with anxiety have turned to CBD to help promote a sense of calmbut humans aren't the only ones who can benefit from the cannabinoid. If your cat struggles with occasional bouts of anxiousness, there's a chance that CBD oil could help support a more even mood.*
The research surrounding CBD and cats is in even earlier stages than the studies on humans. While a 2021 study1 found that CBD is generally well tolerated by healthy cats, most evidence supporting the use of CBD oils for cats with anxiety is anecdotal from pet owners or veterinarians.
What we do know about cats and CBD? Similar to humans, cat have an endocannabinoid system or ECS. This biological communication network 2 is present in all mammals, where it plays a role in supporting the balance of body systems, like the nervous and immune systems.
The ECS has an impact on pain control, digestion, and, you guessed it, mood. When you give your feline CBD, you're introducing external cannabinoids to support the endocannabinoid system, including your animal's mood. Just remember further research is still needed to understand the exact interaction between CBD and the ECSeven in humans.
If you're ready to explore the benefits of CBD oil for cats, we've compiled a list of our top picks to guide you toward the best possible option. Just remember that it is key to consult your vet before introducing a new supplement into your cat's routine.
Penguin CBD Cat Oil sources broad-spectrum hemp from pesticide-free Oregon farms for a CBD that you can feel good about giving your cat. Each bottle has just four ingredients: hemp, MCT oil, natural flavor, and terpenes (part of the hemp plant). When combined together, they offer a gentle 5mg of CBD per serving in a cat-friendly salmon flavor. Our only note? While MCT oil is a common carrier oil for CBDincluding in pet-focused formulasit's not tolerated by all furry companions.

Using TLC-MS for the Direct Analysis of CBD – AZoM
Posted: at 8:42 pm
The utilization of cannabis and its derivatives in nutritional supplements and medicine has increased worldwide, primarily because of the favorable regulatory status for medicinal use. As new compounds continue to arrive on the market, accessible techniques are needed to analyze product quality quickly and efficiently.
Cannabidiol (CBD) has become a popular health supplement in the UK, while multiple studies have reported analgesic anti-depressant effects. CBD is derived from the Cannabaceae genus of flowering hemp, and during the extraction process, the essential oils that create the body of the sample matrix are released.
This complex matrix presents a challenge when testing product quality. This article discusses how a QA scientist can extract CBD from the starting matrix, utilizing a hyphenated technique of CAMAG's planar chromatography technology and Microsaic's point-of-need mass spectrometer (MS) and fluidics handling platform.
Samples of CBD were acquired in three forms: 5% hemp oil droplets, 2.75% hemp oil droplets, and 10 mg capsules. These samples were mixed with methanol and injected into HPLC vials, which were then placed into the CAMAG Automatic TLC Sampler 4.
Samples were applied onto HPTLC plates (HPTLC Si RP-18 F254, 20x10) in narrow bands. Vision CATS software was employed, and plates were developed using the CAMAG Automatic Developing Chamber 2.
A developing solvent mixture of methanol, water, and acetic acid (in the respective ratio of 70:15:15) was utilized and then presented with the CAMAG TLC Visualizer 2. The CAMAG TLC 2 Interface extracted bands from the developed plate.
The extraction solvent consisted of methanol and water in a ratio of 80:20 at 0.5 ml/min. This solvent was provided by the Microsaic MiDasTM, with the extracted sample passing directly into the Microsaic 4500 MiD.

Figure 2 presents the developed plates alongside a CBD standard for comparison. Good agreement is observed with the developed band around 0.3 rf, providing confidence that the separation has been successful.

Mass detection is favored since it provides direct confirmation while removing the need for expensive, difficult-to-obtain reference standards. Information-rich data that contains co-eluting compounds and matrix impurities is acquired.
The developed plate was transferred to the TLC Interface 2, and the targeting laser was aligned onto the band at 0.3 rf. The sample was extracted and passed through the solvent stream via an inline filter to the MiD mass detector.
Figure 3 presents the MS data from the developed plate. A good response is observed from a full scan total ion count (TIC) over the full mass range (50-1400 m/z) in tandem with a SIM acquisition that is run concurrently (MaSScope; 315.2 m/z).

In Figure 4, the signal in the mass spectrum, which corresponds to [CBD+H]+ is visible, which shows the sensitivity of the MiD and the flexibility to run two methods concurrently.
CAMAG planar chromatography equipment and Microsaic point-of-need technology have been employed to extract mass data from popular high-street health supplements. The accessibility of the MiD complements the CAMAG planar technology.
The intrinsic usability minimizes the time required from setup to analysis, allowing the study of developed plates to occur in line with established workflows.
As cannabis becomes more accepted in nutritional supplements and medicine, flexible methods are required to overcome these challenges. Microsaic Systems Plc and Omicron Research Ltd are committed to delivering these solutions to the point of need.

Cornbread Hemp Organic CBD Gummies Review – BusinessMole
Posted: at 8:42 pm
Ever since the legalization of cannabis by the2018 Farm Act, millions of people have been discovering its benefits and ways to consume it safely. Hemp products are now being recommended by wellness experts, therapists, medical doctors, and veterinarians for human and animal consumption to alleviate the symptoms of several ailments and as a health boost. As a result, the market has experienced an influx of cannabis products in multiple forms ranging from drops, pills, gummies, vapes, smokes, oils, creams, and treats for our favorite animals.
Gummies are one of the most convenient and discrete ways to consume hemp-related products. They are especially great for people with an aversion to smoking or consuming CBD oils and pills. With their exciting shapes, colors, and fruity scents, one can easily pop a gummy while their friends assume they are eating usual candies. This article thoroughly explores cornbread CBD gummies, highlighting their composition, benefits, safety, and side effects.
Cornbread Hemp is a full spectrum CBD-infused, vegan gummy bear product from a family-owned business in Kentucky. The product is made of organic CBD oils specifically sourced from Kentucky-bred hemp. The brand uses a flower-only approach, meaning that the stems, stalks, and leaves are removed in the manufacturing process to offer more potent products. The brand has an A+ customer feedback rating on most of its products, including cornbread gummies. It has never been involved in any lawsuits or received anyproduct blacklisting from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Although cornbread CBD gummies are slightly pricier than other cannabis competitor brands, they are made from USDA-certified organic hemp. They have proven third-party testing and come with more potent effects, giving them good value for money. The cornbread CBD gummies are made using natural, organic apple pectin as a substitute for animal-based gelatin, so they are juicy, tender, and suitable for vegans.
