How’s it growing folks! Welcome to a new episode of Here Weed Go! I'm your host Eddie Celaya, cannabis writer for TucsonMarijuanaGuide.com!
In today’s episode, I'll be looking into a new line of products I haven't covered yet – ingestibles.
Although closely related to edibles both in how they work within the body and how they are consumed, "ingestibles" refers to the segment of products that include cannabinoid-specific or full-spectrum pills and tinctures that have become popular in recent years, particularly with more elderly consumers and patients and those approaching cannabis from a more wholistic, health-and-wellness adjacent path.
To help me get learn more about ingestibles, I invited Dr. Chuck Johnson, the chief scientific officer at Ally Biotech onto the show.
Based out of Payson, Arizona, Ally Biotech bills itself as a cannabis-science company, with its focus on producing highly bio-available products for consumption by recreational customers and medical marijuana patients alike.
As Dr. Chuck says, “How you present a cannabinoid to the body is very important and there are ways to do it that are more effective than others.”
The company has been at the cutting edge of developing liposomal absorption technology, basically a delivery system for cannabinoids that helps deliver them into the bloodstream, and recently acquired another Arizona-based favorite, Chill Pill.
Together, Dr. Chuck and I explore the technology behind Ally Biotech and Chill Pill, what makes ingestibles and pills different from edibles, and how Ally’s liposomal technology can be implemented in products to appeal to a customer base focused on health and wellness.
Our conversation begins with Dr. Chuck explaining what sort of effect his first experience with cannabis had on him…
