Product details
Origins
Aphria 20:0 is extracted from the Indica-dominant hybrid strain Henik (90% Indica/10% Sativa) created through crossing Alien Dawg, Chemdawg and Alien Technology strains. The strain used in this product is distinctly recognised for its array of sour citrus flavours with herbal undertones.
Composition
Aphria 20:0 Extract is a THC-rich Indica cannabis oil that can be purchased only with a prescription from a medical practitioner. The product contains 20mg of THC and 0mg of CBD per 1 ml.
Once extracted, the oil is diluted in a carrier MCT oil. Cannabinoids are fat-soluble, meaning they dissolve in oil rather than water. MCT’s (medium-chain triglycerides) are fats that help boost the absorption rate of cannabinoids like THC.
Aphria 20:0 Extract terpene profile is dominated by Caryophyllene and Humulene. Terpenes are vital compounds to cannabis as they give the plant its distinct aroma and flavour. Also, scientists suggest that cannabinoids can work with terpenes creating an entourage effect. Caryophyllene is present in many herbs, including black pepper, oregano, and cannabis strains. It has a spicy, funky flavour similar to cinnamon and cloves. Humulene is responsible for subtle earthy, woody, and spicy notes that have hoppy beers.
Storage
Storing your cannabis product correctly will prolong its life. Keep it in a cool, dry place and away from sunlight. It’s essential to keep this product (and any cannabinoid product) out of the reach of children and animals.
Dosing guidelines
The guidance provided here is not intended to be medical advice – patients will discuss their dosage guidelines with a medical professional independently before beginning their treatment.
Your medical practitioner will explain the optimal method of administration for your needs. Patients can consume the product sublingually or orally. When ingested orally, the onset time is between 1-2 hours, and the duration of action is 6-10 hours. When administered sublingually, patients should put drops under the tongue and wait for the effect for 10-20 minutes. The duration of action is typically between 2-4 hours.
Extraction
The product is crafted using a solvent-free CO2 extraction technique. It is also considered a gold standard extraction in the CBD industry. In order to get an extract, manufacturers use pressurized carbon dioxide to isolate the phytochemicals from the whole plant. This process allows to separate all of the essential cannabinoids, terpene oils and waxes out of the plant.
Lab testing
Every medical cannabis product Aphria produces undergoes extensive testing by its experienced in-house scientists as well as third-party laboratories to ensure unbiased results. This practice verifies accurate cannabinoid content and the absence of any harsh chemicals.
