Why Mess with Nature's Recipe?
The cannabis and hemp industries are flooded with products claiming to offer premium experiences, but not all cannabinoids are created equal. A growing divide exists between naturally derived and synthetic cannabinoids—one rooted in the fundamental differences between farmed craftsmanship and lab-based shortcuts. At Drops, we are committed to using only naturally derived cannabinoids, ensuring purity, safety, and a true-to-plant experience.
The Rise of Synthetic Cannabinoids
In an effort to cut costs and circumvent the skilled process of cultivating and extracting high-quality cannabis, many companies turn to synthetic cannabinoids. These compounds are often created in labs using chemical reactions that mimic natural cannabinoids, but the results can be vastly different from those found in the cannabis plant. While synthetic cannabinoids may be marketed as equivalent to their natural counterparts, they often lack the full spectrum of effects and entourage benefits that strain-specific cannabis offers.
Why Naturally Derived Cannabinoids Are Superior
At Drops, we believe in the integrity of the plant. Our cannabinoids are extracted from carefully cultivated cannabis and hemp strains, preserving the natural balance of compounds that have been fine-tuned by nature over time. This approach ensures that our products maintain their purity, potency, and the beneficial effects unique to each strain.
The difference between naturally derived and synthetic cannabinoids is similar to the distinction between farm-to-table organic food and heavily processed, chemically enhanced alternatives. Just as natural foods provide superior nutrition and flavor compared to artificial additives, naturally extracted cannabinoids deliver a richer, more authentic cannabis experience.
The Dangers of Synthetic Cannabinoids
One of the biggest concerns surrounding synthetic cannabinoids is their potential health risks. Unlike natural cannabinoids, which have been safely consumed for centuries, synthetics can carry unknown and unpredictable side effects. While some synthetic cannabinoid producers adhere to testing standards, the hemp market in particular has seen inconsistencies in regulation, allowing some synthetic compounds to bypass rigorous scrutiny. In contrast, naturally derived cannabinoids—like those used at Drops—undergo thorough testing and strict quality control, ensuring a clean and safe product.
The True Cannabis Experience: Whole Plant, Whole Benefits
When cannabinoids are extracted from actual cannabis plants, they retain the delicate balance of terpenes and minor cannabinoids that work together to create the entourage effect—an enhanced synergy that makes cannabis truly effective. Synthetic alternatives often lack these crucial elements, leading to a flatter, less nuanced experience. At Drops, we are dedicated to maintaining the full expression of the plant in every edible we create.
Choosing Quality Over Shortcuts
The cannabis industry has reached a crossroads. As mass production and cost-cutting measures become more prevalent, consumers must decide whether they want a genuine cannabis experience or a lab-created imitation. At Drops, we stand firmly on the side of nature, prioritizing quality, transparency, and the unmatched benefits of naturally derived cannabinoids.
By choosing products made with real, strain-specific cannabis extracts, you're not just getting a superior experience—you're supporting the artistry and expertise of skilled farmers and extractors who have dedicated themselves to preserving the integrity of the plant.
The future of cannabis is naturally derived. Are you in?
