The Cannabis Boomer Podcast discusses the growing popularity of cannabis edibles with Teresa Hansen, Director of Edibles at Copperstate Farms. Hansen, a nutritionist and culinary arts graduate, explains the science behind edibles, their delayed onset, and prolonged effects. She also highlights the variety of edible products available, including gummies, beverages, and baked goods, and discusses the importance of proper dosing.
Teresa Hansen, a former research and development chef at Starbucks discusses everything that’s new in cannabis edibles and emphasizes the importance of thorough research and development in creating shelf-stable baked goods with consistent cannabis concentrations. She advises new consumers to start with a low dose and gradually increase it to find their ideal experience. Safety is a top priority at Copperstate, with child-resistant packaging and proper labeling being essential to prevent accidental consumption.
The cannabis industry is seeing a growing interest in beverages, with a focus on low-dose options and unique extraction processes like rosin-based gummies and chocolates. These products often incorporate a variety of cannabinoids, such as CBD and CBN, to create different effects and cater to consumer preferences. While terpenes may lose some potency in edibles, the full-spectrum nature of these products can still provide a unique experience.
The Cannabis Boomer Podcast is not just for baby boomers and older adults, but for all adults interested in cannabis and health.
