E141 - Raw Cannabis and Mitochondria Health Part 2

February 18, 2025

The conversation with BioSource Botanicals continues. In Part 2 Kirk and Trevor look deeper into the use of cannabis and cannabis-derived products offered by BioSource Botanicals. The expert panel discuss the differences in absorption and bioavailability between topical, sublingual, and edible cannabis products. They emphasize the importance of using whole plant extracts rather than isolated compounds, as well as the potential benefits of targeting mitochondrial health. The discussion also touches on the challenges of regulating the cannabis industry and the need for more scientific research to ensure quality and consistency in cannabis products.
