Nano Emulsion

⚗️ Science First mentioned: Ep. 252

A technology that reduces cannabinoid molecules to nano-scale particles (typically under 100nm) allowing them to be uniformly suspended in water-based beverages, enabling consistent dosing, shelf stability, and improved bioavailability.

Dr. Mark Sheldon discussed the rapid advancement — five years ago nano emulsions tasted terrible (like Listerine) but modern formulations have no bitter aftertaste and maintain potency at 50mg+ in canned beverages. Key enabler of the THC beverage market.
