Description
Flavonoids are one of the most common constituents of plants, including cannabis, but their potential for health benefits is almost completely untapped. A team of researchers are turning their focus to flavonoids to find out which plants have a lot of ’em and how to manipulate them for the characteristics consumers want and need. The second feature looks at how processing and extracting safety has improved in recent years, along with what can be done in a high-tech facility like the one we toured — Emerald Valley Processing in Eugene, Oregon. The third feature looks at the legacy of the founders of Oaksterdam University, America’s first cannabis college, which offers a higher education program for the cannabis industry.
