The present invention is a respiratory system protection product and a method for creating said product. The product is created by separating an aloe vera gel from a quantity of aloe vera leaves. The aloe vera gel is added to a heating vessel. A first solution is prepared and added to cover the aloe vera gel. The heating vessel is covered, heated, and stirred until boiling, then removed from heat. After cooling to room temperature an oil component is added. The mixture is blended and amalgamated, then filtered to remove solid materials.

The present invention relates to methods of extracting cannabinoids from cannabis. Also provided is a cannabinoid extract produced by the method of the invention. In one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of preparing a cannabinoid extract, the method comprising heating cannabis plant material for an appropriate time and temperature in order to substantially decarboxylate the cannabis plant material; (ii) extracting cannabinoids from the decarboxylated cannabis plant material by the use of solvents; and (iii) infusing lipid with the extracted cannabinoids. In one embodiment, the present invention provides for methods of preparing a cannabinoid-infused lipid composition and products made by such methods. In another embodiment, the methods render the normally unpleasant tasting concentrated cannabis oil flavorless or reduced in unpleasantness.

The invention relates to an extract from the flowers, preferably from the calyxes, of Bombax costatum, to a process for preparing same and to the extract obtained by said process. The invention also relates to a composition comprising such an extract, the composition advantageously being a cosmetic, pharmaceutical or dermatological composition. The invention also relates to such a composition or such an extract for the use thereof in preventing or treating disorders or pathological conditions of the skin, the mucous membranes or the hair and nails, as well as the imbalance or disorders associated with the imbalance of the microbiota of the skin, the mucous membranes, the hair, the nails and associated skin appendages. Finally, the invention relates to a cosmetic care method for the skin, the hair and nails or the mucous membranes, with a view to improving the condition or the appearance thereof, which method consists in administering such a composition or such an extract.

A method for manufacturing a Ganoderma Lucidum fermented beverage product (GLfb) is provided. It has found that Ganoderma lucidum contains high quantity of natural Pyrroloquinoline Quinone (PQQ). Free radicals generated by ischemic or hypoxic conditions have been found to be a significant cause of myocardial damage leading to myocardial death. PQQ has been reported to act as a free radical scavenger. In particular, PQQ has been reported to be effective in neutralizing superoxide and hydroxyl radicals.

A steviol glycoside composition having modified sensory attributes including reduced sweetness linger and/or increased sweetness intensity. The steviol glycoside composition comprises a steviol glycoside and a sensory modifier compound in an amount effective to modify the sensory attributes of the steviol glycoside.

A method of producing a bioproduct from a sea cucumber wherein the steps of weighing the sea cucumbers, cleaning the sea cucumber, and milling the sea cucumber in a milling machine for creating a sea cucumber pulp may be performed. Further, the processing of the sea cucumber pulp in a multi-step hydrolysis membrane reactor may be completed for the formation of an unfiltered bioproduct. Such a product may need filtering through an ultrafiltration membrane system to obtain a filtered bioproduct. Followed by inactivation of the protease to create a filtered bioproduct, to which drying may then be needed. The final step may be the application of the filtered bioproduct to a relevant industrial use may be described herein.

A hand-operated screw press for users to press cannabis flower or isolated trichome heads without an air compressor, hydraulic unit or solvents used in the process. A digital load cell is provided, as is a full color LCD touch screen display for showing and recording force in real time. A mechanism for detecting the end point of a process is also provided. A recipe representative of heat plate temperature, time of operation, pressure ramping, capacity of the screw press, type of raw material, or mass of raw material can be created and stored for use on any suitable rosin press machine.

The present invention relates to a novel black garlic extract using garlic bulbs separated into six bulbs as a raw material instead of conventional whole garlic and a preparation method thereof. There is an excellent effect of providing a novel black garlic extract with various functionalities of high sweetness and high viscosity and improved flavor and reddish brown color as well as induce high-concentration conversion of 10 times or more to a S-allyl-cysteine compound in which a functional ingredient of raw garlic having antioxidation, reduction in blood cholesterol, improved liver function, and enhanced blood pressure is present in a small amount of 10 ppm or less by maximizing conversion of starch into reducing sugar for most preferably 15 days in a 90% to 100% saturated steam state and a liquefied enzymatic action temperature of 75° C. to 80° C. or lower without separate enzyme addition, and optimizing the action of proteases.

An improved method for making cannabigerol (CBG) utilizing the following steps. CBG-containing material is contacted with an aqueous alkaline solution containing a hydroxide base and essentially no organic solvents, thereby extracting cannabinoids including carboxylic acids and salts and producing an alkaline extract. Non-soluble CBG-containing material is removed from the alkaline extract to produce a clarified alkaline extract. The extracted cannabinoids are decarboxylated and the resulting cannabigerol is crystallized/precipitated from the clarified alkaline extract at a pH greater than 7.

The present invention relates to an anti-diabetic composition comprising a fermented product obtained by low-temperature aging a mixture of beets, carrots and apples. More specifically, an aged product, obtained by low-temperature aging of a mixture obtained by extracting and blending juices of beets, carrots and apples in a weight ratio of 1.5-3.5:1.5-2.5:4-7, has excellent blood sugar-reducing effects, such as concentration-dependent suppression of α-glucosidase and α-amylase activity, blood sugar reduction, reduction of fructosamime, insulin, HOMA-IR and HOMA-β content in the blood, and reduction of the area of β cells in Langerhans islands in pancreatic tissue, and thus can be useful as an anti-diabetic composition.
