Plant-Based Medical Industry Pioneers Leafcann announced that its new line of edible essential oils is now available in the pharmaceutical market.
The product range – called Cephyra® Activated Oils ™ – comprises seven terpene-based essential edible oils, the first of which has now been shipped to Health House International for distribution to pharmacies, clinics and health food stores. The development brings Leafcann one step closer to its goal of bringing functional, plant-based foods to the world market.
Cephyra® Activated Oils ™ are a new category of edible essential oils designed to be consumed and enjoyed. As CEO of LeafCann, a botanical extracts company with products ranging from functional food-based activated oils to prescription medical cannabis, Elisabetta Faenza is excited about the effects of the Cephyra® range.
Faenza said: “Developing high quality, herbal, ingestible medicines and functional foods made under Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) to improve people’s lives has been my ambition for many years. Now it is a great achievement to make the products available to the public.
“The LeafCann team has worked tirelessly to make this project a success and cannot be thanked enough in a challenging global environment. I look forward to everyone experiencing the same enjoyment and benefits that I have been experiencing for some time. “
Dr. Jaroslav Boublik, Senior Scientist at LeafCann and a seasoned functional food expert, commented, “I am very grateful that this range of quality products has entered the functional food market. We have worked hard to give patients and consumers looking for alternatives the opportunity to access the high quality products they deserve. “
Ilario Faenza, Chairman of LeafCann, said: “We have managed to bring a new line of seven products to market in such a difficult environment and we are about to import another line of high quality medical cannabis products in the near future. This is a great time for the LeafCann Group to consolidate its position as a leader in plant extracts. “
Paul Mavor, Pharmacist, Health House International, commented: “Edible essential oils from Cephyra® with terpenes are a whole new class of products that Health House International can offer to the market. Like medicinal cannabis, they act on the endocannabinoid system. The products are unscheduled and freely available to consumers, which significantly improves access. “
