Safe and effective ways to extract and produce CBD-rich cannabis oil.
To extract CBD-rich cannabis oil, one must start with CBD-rich plant material. There are many ways to extract
oil from the cannabis plant, each has its pros and cons. Some methods are safer and more effective than others.
Cannabis oil made with neurotoxic solvents like butane and hexane may leave unsafe residues that compromise
immune function and impede healing.
CO2 extraction: The supercritical (or subcritical) CO2 method uses carbon dioxide under high pressure and extremely
low temperatures to isolate, preserve, and maintain the purity of the medicinal oil. This process requires expensive
equipment and a steep operational learning curve. But, when done well the end product is safe, potent, and free of
chlorophyll.
