Being non-psychoactive it is reputed to have many health benefits such as being anti-inflammatory, soothing and anticonvulsant. • Humans and most animals have an endocannabinoid system composed of endocannabinoids and canna- binoid receptors. The main task of the ECS is to keep body functions in balance (homeostasis). CBD stimulates the ECS and therefore can be beneficial to one’s wellbeing in many different ways. • More and more consumer brands are discovering CBD as a new ingredient for their products. CBD has great potential especially in the food and cosmetics industry as customer demand is constantly increasing. • The combined effect of different compounds found in cannabis is also called “entourage effect”. Cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids work together as a whole to produce a greater effect than if working separately to produce separate effects. That is why at Becanex we have made it our priority to preserve as many of the active ingredients as possible during the extraction. –––– 2 Your advantage - our unique extraction method • At Becanex, we have developed an Our promise to you: internationally patented One-Step Extraction process that allows us to • Great Taste: Becanex products have create a superior product compared to a mild, subtle, nutty and sweet aroma other extraction methods. with no bitterness.
