What’s the Scoop on Delta-8

How does Delta-8 make you feel?

According to Mercury News: The effects of Delta–8 THC and the traditional Delta-9 THC are fairly similar, but the potency of Delta–8 is what sets it apart from its highly psychoactive counterpart. Delta–8 can make you feel high, but it is thought to create a milder effect.

When combined with cannabinoids such as CBN (typically reportedly used for anxiety or sleep) the D8 has different effects. Use it with CBD for a milder euphoric sensation.

And, while we don’t judge, millions of people choose to drink each week throughout America. Many of them suffer hangovers. And, while a high quality plant, such as a hemp plant is thought to lessen the after-effects of an alcohol-induced night out, users of Delta-8 THC report a euphoric feeling without the hangover.

How long will the effects of Delta-8 THC last?

Consumers report effects of Delta-8 can last anywhere from 3 – 8 hours.

Is Delta-8 Legal in Wisconsin?

According to Kush, a substance meeting the definition of “hemp” is legal for purposes of state and federal controlled substances laws regardless of its Delta 8-THC concentration. This means that any hemp-derived Delta 8 THC that has less than .3% of Delta 9 THC is legal.

The short answer is “yes.”

Native Roots Hemp in the News!

Native Roots run deep for local CBD company

By Lee Reinsch
Correspondent

DE PERE – The story of Native Roots Hemp is rags to riches and seed and soil to essential oil.

Native Roots Hemp owner Stacy Deprey-Purper had her own need and worked to solve it.

She’d suffered from innumerable symptoms since she was a child, finally diagnosed at 16 with ulcerative colitis.

It’s an autoimmune condition which causes a range of serious and often painful symptoms.

Deprey-Purper said hers ranged from inflammation and pain to severe fatigue.

“I almost died when I was a kid and was hospitalized for 30 days when I was a teenager,” she said.

Deprey-Purper said the side effects of the medication her doctors prescribed weren’t much better than the symptoms.

As an adult, she said she had barely enough energy to cover the basics of working and taking care of her family.

“I had lots of arthritis and nerve damage, and I was in pain constantly,” Deprey-Purper said. “I didn’t want pills in my body; I wanted something pure that would help.”

Then a few years ago, a friend gave her a tincture of CBD oil (cannabidiol), which comes from hemp.

She took a few drops three times a day, and within a week, she said her symptoms disappeared.
So Deprey-Purper dove in head first.

Nearly three years later, Native Roots Hemp, 365 Main Ave. De Pere, has a network of organic hemp farmers around the state, a hemp-plant processing facility in Algoma, and retail stores in De Pere and Luxemburg (inside PharmHouse Cafe and Market).

The processing facility processes thousands of pounds of hemp, pressing and processing it to extract the oil.

“If a farmer grew a really good plant, you could get 1 kilogram of oil from 30 pounds of raw plant material, if it was extremely high quality,” she said. “Sometimes it takes 100 pounds.”

The company makes a multitude of products, including lotions, soaps, bath teas, beauty products, tinctures, drops, relief rollers, and more, and sells online as well as through its retail stores.

At the De Pere store, customers can sample products and order something from the hemp bar.

Hot cups of hoffee (hemp coffee – their invention) and smoothies enriched with hemp are popular items.

“People use our bar and lounge as a safe place to explore hemp education, or just come in for a cup of hemp tea or hoffee,” she said. “Many take it to go in the mornings to start their day off in the right headspace, relaxed and ready to take on anything.”

Hemp and marijuana could be considered cousins; both belong to the cannabis family.

Hemp is higher in CBD and lower in THC (the psychoactive chemical tetrahydrocannabinol), than marijuana, while marijuana is the reverse.

CBD has been credited for reducing anxiety, pain and inflammation, but hasn’t been FDA approved.

For that reason, Deprey-Purper said she can’t legally make any health claims.

She said she requires the organic hemp farms she works with to be third-party and lab-tested to produce what she calls “the highest quality products at the lowest prices.”

It’s guaranteed: if a customer finds a higher quality product at the same or lower cost, they’ll get their money back.

So far, Deprey-Purper said she hasn’t had to make good on that.

Earlier this year, she announced a partnership with Potawatomi Business Development Corp., which bought a controlling interest.

Deprey-Purper continues to lead the company and reports to a board of directors, which includes the CEO of Potawatomi Business Development Corp.

“The Potawatomi Tribe itself was interested in the hemp market across a number of different factions, growing it and processing it; they looked at it as a high-growth market,” said Potawatomi Business Development Corp. CEO, Randy Mueller. “We found Native Roots Hemp, we liked it, we liked the company and the person who owned it, Stacy, and they were participating in two really good high-growth sectors of the economy for hemp, and that’s why we picked it. It’s worked out great so far.”

Deprey-Purper said the partnership offers her company the chance to do things it otherwise wouldn’t have been able to.

“They have the power of the tribe behind them to help us expand,” she said. “(This) will allow us to continue to hone the product and expand the product line to keep up with customer demand, and it will allow us to expand nationwide.”

Incorporating Hemp into your Chiropractic

How to Incorporate CBD Into Your Chiropractic Practice

As a chiropractor, it’s important to keep up to date with industry trends to ensure you are offering patients a comprehensive approach to treatment. Over the past few years, topical cannabidiol (CBD) products have grown in popularity, especially in the chiropractic market¹as they have been linked to alternative relief for sore muscles and joints. With so many hemp-derived CBD products on the market, it can be difficult to choose the right ones for your patients and practice.

Let’s dive into the steps you can take to begin incorporating CBD products into your practice.

Legalization & CBD

When the Agricultural Improvement Act of 2018 AKA 2018 Farm Bill was passed, it removed “hemp” from the definition of “marijuana”, so long as the THC concentration does not exceed 0.3 percent.²Despite the fact that on a federal level, hemp crop regulation is in the hands of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the legislation preserved the FDA’s responsibility over such products.³ For chiropractors looking to incorporate CBD products into their practice, it is crucial to understand the legal status of CBD in your state of practice so that you are acting in line with the law.

Do I Need a License to Sell CBD at My Practice?

The 2018 Farm Bill recognizes the federal legalization of hemp-derived CBD in the United States—but not statewide regulations about CBD, which vary by state. Before integrating CBD into your practice, research your state’s laws regarding hemp-derived CBD.

In terms of a license, your chiropractic practice should have a business license, as well as a seller’s permit if you intend to sell any products to patients in your practice.⁴ This type of permit is handled on the state level, so refer to your local or state government for guidance on obtaining a seller’s permit for your chiropractic practice.

At MeyerDC, we sell topical, hemp-derived CBD products to chiropractors in the following states: Alabama, California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Nevada, Ohio, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Wisconsin, and Washington. This is changing frequently due to state regulations on CBD, so check individual products for their availability in your state.

26 Interesting Facts About Hemp

The all so wonderful and controversial “Hemp” deserves a detailed article and a careful read. Legalized and banned over and over, the final verdict on the existence of hemp is still pending. Here are some interesting facts about hemp and its uses and legality.

1. The Infamous Marijuana Family

Hemp belongs to the same Cannabis Sativa family that Marijuana does. The basic difference between useful hemp and recreational marijuana is the THC level. THC is the element that gets you high. It is only 1% in hemp and around 20% in weed. A migraine is all you gonna get if you try smoking hemp to get high!

2.The Old Gold

Hemp was first domesticated 10,000 years ago, when it was spun into usable fiber for the very first time.

3. One hell of a Raw Material

This one plant can be used to produce several products including rope, clothes, food, paper, textiles, plastics, insulation, and bio-fuel! The medicinal properties and uses of hemp are not promoted fairly in the mainstream media. Too good to disclose or maybe too cheap for business!

4. Useful to its last unit!

All the parts of the plant produce different products. In its raw form, it’s good for mulch, animal bedding and litter. The seeds can be used to press hemp oil. On drying the hemp oil, it can be used to manufacture paint, creams (as a moisturizing agent), and plastic. Hemp oil can be used for cooking as well!

5. Eat, grind, drink!

Hemp can be eaten raw as salad, seeds can be taken raw or sprouted and grounded into a meal or dried for sprout powder. The liquid form can be used for baking and also drank as hemp milk or hemp juice. In US, it can be only imported and is available in health stores since 2000.
