Cannabis industry leader Lilach Mazor Power is transforming the market with the launch of a new femtech brand, Revelry. The cannabis wellness collection offers a plant-based approach to the under-addressed healthcare conditions of perimenopause and menopause with thoughtfully formulated solutions.

Revelry will be available starting Wednesday, August 18th, at select dispensaries throughout Arizona and at Giving Tree Dispensary, 701 W. Union Hills Drive, in Phoenix.

The women-owned and developed product line was co-founded by Power and marketing executive Stef Swiergol with a mission to reinvent the menopause discourse and evolve a market that lacked female-focused products serving gender-specific needs. The Revelry collection features THC-infused day and night capsules and a CBD intimacy oil.

Menopause is a natural and biological stage in every woman’s life. We wanted to use nature as a medium to help manage the emotional and physical challenges that come with it.

– Lilach Mazor Power, owner of Giving Tree Dispensary

Revelry is designed to alleviate the common symptoms associated with menopause and perimenopause and to improve sleep quality, focus, and mood. Revelry capsules offer a comfortable and discreet way to consume cannabis and are 100 percent hormone free and low calorie.

The daytime sativa gelcaps are a microdose option that provide relaxation as well as mental focus, incorporating several different cannabinoids with anti-inflammatory benefits at 2.5mg each.

The nighttime capsules offer a calming and restorative THC:CBD 1:1 ratio at 20 mg each.

Our inspiration for Revelry was the modern woman, the mothers, partners, leaders, and legends who need to keep moving regardless of menopause. The product line can easily be incorporated into a daily health regimen while also supplementing any homeopathic or medical menopause treatment.

– Marketing Executive, Stef Swiergol

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the healthcare needs of women increased and also exposed a lack of wellness options on the market. Menopause, a previously untapped segment in cannabis, is celebrated in the Revelry brand with its innovative health solutions.

In the U.S., 6,000 women enter menopause each day with 75 percent experiencing hot flashes, night sweats, and other lifestyle inhibiting symptoms. Recent analysis estimates the global femtech solutions industry will reach $1.15B by 2025 from $648M in 2020.

With over 20 years of experience, he is vital in developing brands, building companies, and launching new technologies. 

Recently, SōRSE has focused on several domestic THC initiatives in Colorado, California, Washington, and Arizona. SōRSE, after years and research and millions of dollars of investment, has formulated a water-soluble emulsion technology that allows high-grade THC to be mixed in a liquid medium. 

Much like an Italian salad dressing that will separate after a few hours of use, it isn’t easy to place THC into liquids. Figuring out the perfect balance between water-soluble oils is highly complicated. It is why there are very few THC soda and beverage brands on the market and in dispensaries worldwide. 

However, SōRSE’s latest venture is bringing MAJOR, a 100mg cannabis-infused beverage, to the Arizona market with the help of VEXT Science. 

Vext Science is a well-established U.S. cannabis operator based in Arizona. In Arizona, Vext operates two dispensaries in Phoenix, and its in-house “Vapen” brand is stocked by the vast majority of third-party dispensaries in the state.

After recently signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Vext Science and SōRSE Technology Corp, Vext Science can now handle the day-to-day packaging, storage, and distribution of the SōRSE water-soluble ingredient. 

MAJOR is designed as a high-dose THC beverage that delivers a consistent and enjoyable cannabis experience with no cannabis taste or smell. MAJOR is available in five flavors: Orange Mango, Pink Lemonade, Blue Raspberry, Passion Fruit, and Grape. MAJOR beverages are offered in 200ml serving sizes, with 100mg of THC.

What is excellent about a product like MAJOR and other cannabis beverages is the social experience behind it all. While some may choose to have an alcoholic beverage to drink socially, others can now choose to sip on a cannabis-infused drink.

It allows individuals to microdose and control the experience that they want to achieve. And for those who don’t like to smoke or eat an edible, there is another option. 

– John Kueber, Chief Revenue Officer for SōRSE

MAJOR, the cannabis-infused beverage, is set to hit the shelves of Arizona dispensaries within the next few weeks.

Parisa Rad and Adelia Carrillo, co-founders of Blunt Brunch, recently launched a new event series and created an atmosphere where women in all stages of business, from CEOs to startups seeking funding, can connect and find community within the cannabis industry. 

As the co-founders of Blunt Brunch, Rad and Carrillo started the innovative series when Carrillo moved to Arizona and reached out to Rad to expand her network. Both are innovators in the event space, and after a long event drought because of COVID, they were eager to meet in person with other cannabis associates again. Thus, Blunt Brunch was born. 

Rad AKA “Da Marijuana Momma” on Instagram, is a partner of 420 Skincare and was named one of the 2021 Top 10 in Women & Weed magazine. Carrillo is the co-founder and CMO of EventHi and was recently recognized as a Woman to Watch in the cannabis tech space. Together, their events have become so popular that they have a waiting list full of accomplished high society women that want to attend.

The influential duo is now considering expanding the series to include intimate gatherings for high level executives, and larger, less formal gatherings for those that are new to the industry. Either way, the Blunt Brunch signature is to inspire fun and meaningful relationships for the hardworking women of cannabis. 

The dynamic series is drawing some of the most powerful women of cannabis, and the duo has their sights set on expansion beyond the Arizona market.

Out of state brands have reached out to us, asking us to host a brunch in their area, and we are in the midst of planning our first out of state VIP event.

– Parisa Rad

According to Carrillo, the sky’s the limit.

Having just moved to Arizona, Blunt Brunch has been such a wonderful way for me to expand my network. I have seen first-hand how meaningful these get-togethers can be. We are excited to expand the series.

– Adelia Carrillo

Cannabidiol, often known as marijuana or hemp, is a molecule in the Cannabis sativa plant. In the Cannabis sativa plant, over 80 compounds, sometimes known as cannabinoids, were found. Although the primary active component in marijuana is delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabidiol is also derived from hemp, which has relatively little THC. Cannabidiol in seizure disorder is the most widely utilized (epilepsy). It is also used for anxiety, pain, muscular disorders known as dystonia, Parkinson’s disease, Crohno disease, and many other diseases.

There is no apparent reason for brain consequences. The breakdown in a brain chemical that affects pain, emotion, and mental function appears to be avoided, though. Preventing the collapse and raising blood levels of this molecule seems to decrease the psychotic symptoms of diseases such as schizophrenia. Cannabidiol might potentially inhibit some of Delta 9-tétrahydrocannabinol psychoactive effects (THC). Cannabidiol also appears to decrease anxiety and discomfort.

The Endocannabinoid’s Role in Our System

The endocannabinoid (ECS) system is a biological cell signalling network that is essentially present in the organisms of all creatures. Its job is to preserve homosexuality or internal balance and harmony. Certain functions include our emotions, hunger, sleep, cognitive functioning and many more. The system consists of enzymes, endocannabinoids, and receptors of cannabinoids.

There are two types of receptors for cannabinoids: CB1 and CB2. These are present all over the body; the central NN system is primarily covered with CB1 receptors, whereas the immune system, especially in the spleen, generally concentrates on CB2 receptors.

Research on CBD Oil

It has been found to decrease seizures in adults and children with different diseases associated with seizures in a specific producer of cannabidiol (Epidiolex and GW Pharmaceuticals). The prescription medicine for Dravet syndrome, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, or tuber sclerosis complex treatment is. This product is a medication. Seizures in patients with Sturge-Weber syndrome, FIRES and certain genetic diseases which lead to Epileptic Encephalopathy have also been proven to decrease. However, the treatment of these other forms of seizures is not allowed.

It has shown efficient to increase discomfort, muscular stiffness and urine frequency in patients with MS by prescription only nasal spraying medication (Sativex, GW Pharmaceuticals) combining 9-delta-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol This product is being utilized in more than 25 non-US nations.

But the efficacy of cannabidiol in various sclerotic symptoms when taken alone is not consistent. Early studies show that the use of cannabidiol spray under your tongue may help muscular stiffness and discomfort but not muscle spasm, fatigue, control of your bladder, movement or well-being in Multiple-Sclerosis patients.

CBD Dose: The Fundamental Variables

The proper dose calculation for CBD might be a difficult concept, in particular for CBD novices. 

Your single dosage depends on your specific factors. Examples of these variables include:

Health of the body, age, weight, height, metabolism, body mass (BMI), conditions of health, forms of CBD intake (capsule, tincture, etc.). This applies not just to pharmaceutical drugs, but also to numerous organic goods or products produced from plants. Certainly the natural organic ingredients included in CBD products do not allow you to consume cannabinoids as generously as you like.

CBD Dosage:

Giving your body the proper amount is a crucial element in making the most of your CBD products. Once you have identified the correct dosage, not only will you profit greatly from your supplements, but also protect yourself against waste by utilizing extra products. Our proposed dose is 0,25mg CBD multiplied daily in pounds by your body weight. Therefore a person of 120 pounds is supposed to take 30 mg CBD (0,25 x 120 = 30) daily, with a person of 50 mg CBD (0,25 x 200 = 50) taking a person of 200 pounds daily. Ideally, divide your doses evenly from morning to night.

That stated, no ‘official dosage’ or standard dose’ is available and varies from person to person. Your optimal dose will be determined by a range of criteria, including weight, metabolism, product type, and kind of body. We encourage experiment and regular use to find the correct dosage in order to get the highest potential for achievement. The correct dosage may take 2-3 weeks to discover, but after you have the effects of CBD on your body, you’ll be in a better position to decide how much and when to take it.

Weight of Body and Structure:

More study is needed in this field. However, up-to-date medical data demonstrate the presence of the fat cells of the body of the endocannabinoid system (ECS, the CBD system for interacting with them. When you use edible food items (CBD products such as rubber and hemp oil), the correct dosage is determined by your body’s size and digestion.

Method of Supply:

CBD products may be found in several forms, such as CBD oil tinctures, lotions and rubs, and CBD capsules or gum. CBD products come in full spectrum. In the next section, we will examine the particular distinctions between them.

If You Have Previous Experience:

CBD is one of the chemical components in the hemp plant which binds to the endocannabinoid system in our bodies to modify our feeling. These chemicals are known as cannabinoids and experts are uncertain of the repetitive use of CBD oil tinctures and other products. Some research indicates that the higher your tolerance, the more the exposure, the higher the dose for the same results. Other study shows that persistent cannabidiol usage does not result in CBD oil tolerance.

Factors in Dosing: Body and Health Conditions

Your body weight is one of the essential criteria for your CBD dose. This is because each person’s tolerance and metabolism is different. A maximum intake of 6 mg CBD per 5 kg (10 pounds) of body weight is a good suggestion. However, it is suggested to maintain dosages below that number if the response to that formula in your instance exceeds 70 mg.

Your health also plays an important part in determining the correct CBD dose for you. You may have a health issue that impacts you with different symptoms, persistent discomfort, or even sleeping during the night. You might be the health image. All of this is crucial for the assessment of your CBD dose strength.

Check the Contents Always

It is crucial to read what is actually in the product(s) you purchase before you reach the checkout. Make sure that your product includes a thorough description and a clear indication of the concentration of all chemicals in it. Your product should include a good level of CBD since you don’t want to be sprinkled with cannabidiol for one that consists mostly of other components. In order to achieve effective results, the Quality of CBD plays a key part, and you must select a quality product that has high levels of CBD.

Find a Trusted CBD Brand

First and foremost, the choice of a trustworthy CBD company. The product you pick has numerous criteria to fulfill: it must satisfy your country’s legal requirements, its quality and its standard must be outstanding, it must meet specific safety standards, and it must not have complied with any unwanted chemicals or additions. Important too: what you desire should be exactly!

Long regarded as a mecca for natural healing and exploration, Sedona couldn’t be a more natural fit for Cloth & Flame’s Verde Series, a cannabis-inspired culinary program that launched, fittingly, on April 20, 2021.

Being able to introduce our brands to a larger customer base is the ultimate goal for us.

Now that Cannabis is legal here in the state of Arizona, I’ve noticed such a surge in “CBD” products on the shelves of department stores and even gas stations. Granted, CBD has been legal for many years, new research on the Cannabis plant is underway due to its legality.

This has led scientists and researchers to find even more useful compounds in the Cannabis plant that aid in human health, wellness, and beauty! This interview showcases that research and how CBD is not the only thing we need to be adding into our beauty regiments.

Hi there, please introduce yourself and your background in the Hemp industry: 

I am Dennis O’Neill, the President of BioMediCan, a biotech startup company developed that has a unique patented method of producing pharmaceutical-grade, 100% organic, non-GMO rare cannabinoids, including CBG, CBGA, THCV, THCVA, CBN, CBNA, and high-value compounds using a proprietary organic biosynthesis platform at 70-90% lower cost than conventional methods.

I have 25 years of investment banking experience. In my lifetime, I have raised more than $2bnl in early-stage capital. I have been involved in more than a dozen biotech companies and realized that there were significant medical benefits for multiple health conditions treated with cannabinoids. 

Have brands been using CBD and other Hemp compounds in beauty products for a while now, or is it a relatively new concept? 

It is a relatively new product category. There have been a few in the market for a couple of years, but it has not had significant traction yet. 

I know within the last decade or so, researchers have finally performed proper experiments with Hemp and Cannabinoids legally. Still, are there other compounds besides CBD that are great for skin, hair, etc.? 

The breakthrough for skincare and haircare is CBG. CBG is considered the mother of all cannabinoids because it is the cannabinoid all other cannabinoids are derived from. CBD/CBG has significant benefits for hair care.

Does the endocannabinoid system have anything to do with hair and beauty products? Can we absorb these compounds topically/externally?

There are cannabinoid receptors all over your skin. In every layer of it, including the skin’s surface (epidermis), oil glands (sebaceous glands), hair follicles, nerves, immune cells, and subcutaneous fat. Because of this, cannabis skincare can aid in the healing of at least 14 common skin issues:

1. Acne
2. Inflammation
3. Oxidation 
4. Aging
5. Hydration
6. Dry skin
7. Oily
8. Redness
9. Tone
10. Firmness
11. Itchiness
12. Immune response
13. Environmental damage
14. Hair growth

I have seen TONS of beauty products lately boom with the “CBD” trend, but are cannabinoids also great for our hair follicles?

Hair fall becomes a problem when your hair does not grow back at the same rate as you lose it, causing thinning and bald spots. Several factors could restrict your hair growth, such as lack of nutrients, dandruff, or chemical deposits. As such, combatting hair loss requires an ingredient that can act upon these underlying causes to promote hair growth. Many people dream of enjoying thick and luscious hair, and this might be possible to use a CBD oil with your regular hair care regimen.

CBD oil brims with the goodness of omega fatty acids that seal moisture in the hair and nourishes the cuticles. According to a recent study on the inhibition of human hair follicle growth by endo-massaging the scalp with the oil soothes the dryness on the scalp by absorbing the nutrients and promoting hair growth, according to a recent study on the inhibition of human hair follicle growth exocannabinoids.

Another way in which CBD oil can benefit hair growth is by improving blood circulation. Improved blood flow in the area near hair follicles encourages the development and strengthening of your hair. CBD interacts with the endocannabinoid system to elevate cerebral blood circulation, resulting in nutrients reaching the hair for good growth. It also detoxes the hair from harmful chemical deposits and dust particles to promote growth.

It is essential to ensure you are purchasing high-quality and authentic CBD, from a brand such as CBDfx dispensaries, where the products have been lab-tested. Combining CBD with a potent carrier oil can help achieve healthy hair growth and beautiful-looking locks.

It Treats Scalp Conditions

CBD has potent anti-inflammatory properties that aid in soothing inflammation on the scalp, for example, like eczema. The irritation and patchy flaking of the skin in the scalp can affect hair growth and lead to premature baldness in serious cases. The cannabinoid receptors present on the scalp interact with CBD oil to regulate the functioning of the immune system. It calms skin inflammation in these areas and decreases hair loss. Similar effects are also visible while treating conditions such as psoriasis or folliculitis.

The interaction of CBD influences the natural sebum or oil levels in the scalp that reduces problems such as dandruff and dry scalp. It also has antimicrobial properties that reduce the risk of scalp infections, which cause dandruff. It heals the flaky patches in the scalp and ensures good scalp health. Also, the deposit of hair products such as conditioners, hair spray, can cause an imbalance in the pH level and increase hair loss. CBD oil has cleansing properties that eliminate deposits and particles from the scalp to stimulate hair growth.

It Treats Hormonal and Stress Induced Hair Loss

Hormonal fluctuations and stress are some of the most common reasons for hair loss. Women going through pregnancy or menopause witness drastic fluctuations in hormone levels that could cause hair fall. The common hormone DHT is responsible for causing receding hairlines. External treatments alone cannot help you cope with such problems, and that is where CBD oil can help. CBD interacts with several receptors that control the hormone regulation functions in the body.

The cannabinoid can work to achieve hormonal balance to aid in coping with hair fall and stimulating hair growth. Similarly, stress can have an intense impact on your scalp health and overall nutrient availability for hair growth. It can also influence hormone fluctuations and further the problem.

CBD has powerful anti-anxiety and anti-stress benefits that aid in creating feelings of calm and relaxation. It balances stress levels in the body and in turn keeps the chemicals responsible for hair growth at the right levels to give you gorgeous hair.

It Prevents Hair Damage and Breakage

Exposure to dust, pollution, and UV radiation damages the very building blocks of your hair and skin. With time, your hair loses its charm and starts looking dull and lifeless. Environmental factors paired with poor lifestyle choices can have an intense impact on the overall health of your hair. Styling tools and products further damage the integrity of your hair follicles, leaving them damaged and weak.

CBD oil is one of the best solutions to repair damaged hair and restore its beauty. It features a potent moisturizing property that can help treat dry and lifeless hair and smoothens texture and creates a better appearance.

CBD oil also acts upon the scalp to cleanse deposits of chemicals that could block the hair from growing properly. It strengthens the roots by providing the necessary nutrients such as calcium and iron for healthy hair growth. The antioxidants from the oil can help protect it from environmental damage and repair the breakage. It even protects the hair from suffering water loss by keeping it well hydrated and nourished, even in harsh weather conditions.

Skincare

Cannabigerol (CBG) has three major benefits to your skin – CBG is highly anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antioxidant. Our bodies naturally contain the endocannabinoid system (ECS), which essentially works to keep everything in balance. Relating to your skin, the endocannabinoid system helps maintain healthy skin function.

CBG works with the CB1 and CB2 endocannabinoid receptors, which are in the skin. Once CBG enters the epidermis (skin), it penetrates to the basal and subcutaneous layers where it helps calm inflammation, reduces blemishes, purifies pores, balances sebum (oil) production and assists with cellular turnover. 

What is astaxanthin? And what are the benefits of this compound?

BioKai is the new company name under which we are selling Astaxanthin. 

Astaxanthin is an increasingly popular carotenoid. It occurs naturally in certain algae and runs the color gamut from red to pink. Some astaxanthin can also be found in specific seafood types. Astaxanthin is currently one of the most talked-about carotenoids, a class of reddish-pink pigments found naturally in algae, and in salmon, crabs, shrimp, lobster, and other seafood. It is also what gives the feathers of the flamingo that beautiful pink coloration.

Carotenoids have a colorful and fascinating history, having been researched since the early 1800s. Astaxanthin belongs to the Xanthophylls subgroup of carotenoids, with the famous carotenes like lycopene, alpha-carotene, and beta-carotene being the other subclass.

Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant, which is the overarching property behind its several health benefits. What that means is that it naturally reduces oxidation, a biological process that helps keep many health issues and conditions at bay.

Oxidative stress is a condition that arises when the balance between free radicals and antioxidants in the body tips towards the former. Too many radicals are responsible for many cases of inflammation in the body.

Astaxanthin can help curb oxidative stress in several parts of the body by neutralizing free radicals. This is the holy grail in the way antioxidants help prevent disease.

By the same token, astaxanthin might play a key role in many body changes and disease. These include:

Cancer treatment: Owing to its antioxidant properties, a growing number of studies have shown that astaxanthin may help treat several cancers, most notably breast cancer, prostate cancer, and leukemia. Further research is still needed, though.

Skin care and UV protection: A handful of studies have revealed that the antioxidant can slow down the photoaging process and prevent UV-induced cancer damage.

Ulcers: Astaxanthin help control ulcer-causing bacteria, H. pylori. By doing so, it allows ulcer wounds to heal faster and prevent a recurrence.

Heart disease prevention: Astaxanthin plays a role in reducing high cholesterol, increasing blood flow, and relaxing blood vessels. The combination of the three positive effects results in a healthy heart.

On a similar note, astaxanthin helps with heart damage repair. It prevents unwanted changes to the endothelium, protecting the walls and arteries in the heart. It also allows damaged heart cells to regenerate.

It helps curb oxidative stress in the brain. This plays an important role in treating and managing brain-related and neurodegenerative disorders including traumatic brain injury, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s disease.

Treating male infertility: Increased sperm oxidative stress has been associated with low fertility or infertility in men. As an antioxidant, astaxanthin helps nib this in the bud.

Helps with exercise-related fatigue: Astaxanthin encourages the body to take advantage of its own supply of fatty lipids, which improves exercise endurance, stamina, and muscle fatigue during and after exercising.

Reduces high cholesterol: Its action on oxidative stress in the blood can help reduce high blood pressure, improve heart health, prevent diabetes, and decrease the risk of brain damage from stroke.

It is a powerful anti-inflammatory agent 6000times stronger than vitamin C. Astaxanthin has been found to possess plenty of anti-inflammatory properties.

This may come in handy as a treatment option for conditions and diseases that involve inflammation, including bacterial inflammation, rheumatoid arthritis, several types of cancer, and carpal tunnel syndrome, just to mention a few.

While further and more conclusive research must be conducted to establish firmly these health benefits and claims, you can rest assured that astaxanthin is best for you by virtue of being an antioxidant.

Chef, father, and restaurateur. Aaron Chamberlin’s family has been working in the restaurant industry since the 1930’s, led first by his grandfather, who was a chef himself.

He credits his grandfather with having inspired him to become a chef at a very early age, and already had him cooking in the kitchen by the age of nine.

A few years later, at the age of 14, he’d hold his first job in the industry. Aaron would go on to work at some of the best restaurants in the country, from New York City, San Francisco, Boston, Los Angeles, and back to Phoenix.

Established in 2019, Good Things Coming is a chef-made, precision-dosed edibles brand handcrafted in Snowflake, Arizona. Formulated by CEO and Chef Aaron Chamberlin, Good Things Coming products are made from all-natural, gluten-free ingredients and third-party, lab-tested distillate from Copperstate Farms.

Each of our products is handcrafted in our kitchen in Snowflake, Arizona. We have access to a 50-acre greenhouse grow and a high-end extraction lab that produces our cannabis oil, giving us unmatched, consistent quality.

We source our honey and lavender from local farms, import our chimayo chili powder from our neighbors in New Mexico, and use high-end chocolate and organic sugar in our recipes. Our purpose is to make sure good things are always coming your way!

– Chef Aaron Chamberlin

Good Things Coming products include Lavender Lemon Drops, French Chocolate Brownies, and Fruit Jellies in mango chile, yuzu citrus, very cherry, and pomegranate.

Chef Aaron Chamberlin created the brand because he was finding that many of the edible cannabis options in the marketplace weren’t using high-quality ingredients.

He wanted to combine the dependability of precisely dosed cannabis with ingredients that high-end chefs would use in their kitchens. He found ways to incorporate real fruit and less sugar that still tasted delicious.

Good Things Coming is also a brand that you can incorporate into your everyday cooking because there are flavor profiles that complement every taste. (Check out this fun recipe).

Our purpose is to help people, and part of helping people is having fun. Good Things Coming is here to do just that and lend a happy, healing hand to everyone.
