HEMP EXTRACT EXPLAINED
What is hemp extract?
Hemp extract is a natural active substance derived from the hemp plant. It is a gentle solution to regulate and balance key body functions by interacting with your Endocannabinoid System (ECS). The ECS is present nearly everywhere in the body and maintains a healthy equilibrium for: stress management, emotional processing, sleep, learning and memory, pain control, inflammatory and immune responses. Hemp extract differs from THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) as it is safe, non-psychotropic and there is no physical dependence from it.
Where does hemp extract come from?
Hemp extract is naturally produced by and extracted from the hemp plant. Specifically, it is found in the trichomes (or resin glands) of the plant. These trichomes are tiny, hair-like structures that cover the surface of the plant and contain a variety of different cannabinoids, including hemp extract.
In the case of AlpReleaf products, the hemp extract is extracted from hemp leaves that come from BioSuisse certified Swiss grown plants. We use Co2 extraction and Flash chromatography to reach the broad spectrum extract contained in the oils and additional purification techniques to reach pure isolate hemp extract that you may find in Releaf Day Cream or Recovery Cream.
How is hemp extracted from the hemp plant?
There is a variety of methods to extract hemp from the hemp plant. In our view, the most gentle process for the active substances of the plant is CO2 Extraction. This process yields a full spectrum hemp extract that includes cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids.
To obtain a broad spectrum extract, flash chromatography is used to remove THC while preserving the beneficial molecules. This advanced filtering technique allows us to selectively remove unwanted compounds without damaging the ones we want to keep, resulting in a pure and high-quality product.
How does hemp extract interact with the human body?
Our bodies have an Endocannabinoid System (ECS) that helps regulate various functions such as mood, sleep, appetite, and immune response. The ECS produces its own endocannabinoids, which are similar in structure to phytocannabinoids found in plants like hemp extract. When hemp extract is consumed, it interacts with the ECS by blocking the enzyme that breaks down our endocannabinoids, allowing our body to use more of its own cannabinoids. This, in turn, can help to regulate these various functions and bring the body back into balance, also known as homeostasis. Additionally, hemp extract interacts with other receptors in the body, such as serotonin and vanilloid receptors, which can also have a positive impact on mood, pain sensation, and more.
What is the ECS (endocannabinoid system) and how does it work?
The Endocannabinoid System (ECS) was discovered in the 1990s and is a complex signaling system that exists across all mammal species on Earth. It is known to have three major types of components: endocannabinoids, endocannabinoid receptors and enzymes. It has also been proven that through its components, the endocannabinoid system regulates your mental and physical well-being.

What is the difference between hemp extract and THC?
THC and hemp extract are the two most famous cannabinoids that can be found in the cannabis plant. The biggest difference between them is that THC has psychotropic effects whereas there is no evidence of psychotropic effects with hemp extract. This is due to the fact that they have different chemical structures, this makes them interact with the endocannabinoid receptors in our body in a different way.
What are the benefits of using hemp extract?
Hemp extract has been the subject of extensive research in recent years and has been found to have numerous potential benefits. Some of the most commonly reported benefits of using hemp extract include: pain relief, anxiety and depression, improved sleep, skin health, neuroprotective effects and reduced addiction. It's important to note that hemp extract is not a cure-all and its benefits are still being researched. However, many people have reported positive effects from using hemp extract for a variety of health and wellness concerns.
Can hemp extract get me high?
No, hemp extract cannot get you high. Unlike THC, hemp extract is non-psychoactive and will not produce any euphoric or mind-altering effects. Our products are made using a broad-spectrum hemp extract that has been processed with supercritical CO2 extraction and flash chromatography, removing all traces of THC while preserving other beneficial compounds like cannabinoids and terpenes. You can enjoy the potential benefits of hemp extract without any risk of getting high.
What are terpenes and polyphenols?
Terpenes are aromatic compounds that create the characteristic scent of many plants and have many health benefits. Polyphenols are micronutrients found in plants, usually very good antioxidants.
How long will hemp extract stay in my system?
Every body reacts differently and it will depend on your metabolism and dosage but generally hemp extract will be disseminated by your body within a few hours.
Is hemp extract safe?
Hemp extract is considered safe by many health organizations, including the World Health Organization (WHO). It has a good safety profile and very few side effects have been reported. However, as with any supplement or medication, it is always important to consult with a healthcare professional before use, especially if you are taking other medications or have any pre-existing medical conditions. Additionally, it is important to ensure that you are purchasing hemp extract from a reputable source that provides third-party lab testing results to ensure product quality and purity.
Is hemp extract addictive?
The World Health Organization(WHO) has concluded from controlled human studies that there is no physical dependence on hemp extract.
Is hemp extract legal in my country?
The legality of hemp extract in Europe varies by country, as each country has its own laws and regulations regarding cannabis and CBD. Generally speaking, hemp extract is legal in most European countries as long as it contains less than 0.2% THC.
In the European Union, hemp extract is regulated as a novel food ingredient, which means it must go through a safety evaluation and be authorized by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) before it can be legally sold as a food or dietary supplement. Some countries, such as Austria, France, and Germany, have specific regulations on hemp extract products and require certain labeling and testing. AlpReleaf Oils & Creams are regulated as cosmetics containing hemp extract as they are not meant for ingesting.
It's important to note that even though hemp extract is legal in many European countries, some products may still be subject to import or export restrictions, particularly if they contain higher levels of THC or other controlled substances. Additionally, it's always a good idea to check with local authorities to ensure compliance with local regulations.
Overall, the legality of hemp extract in Europe is complex and depends on various factors such as the source of the hemp extract, the level of THC, and the intended use of the product. It's important to do research and understand the laws and regulations in your specific country before purchasing or using hemp extract products.
In the case of AlpReleaf products you would need to simply check whether cosmetics containing hemp extract are accepted in your country. AlpReleaf Oils contain undetectable amounts of THC (<0.05%) and AlpReleaf Creams are THC-Free.
How does hemp extract interact with other medications or supplements?
Hemp extract can affect the way your body processes certain medications, potentially causing unwanted side effects or altering their effectiveness. However, many people safely use hemp extract in conjunction with other medications or supplements. Therefore, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional before using hemp extract.
UNDERSTAND OILS
What is a hemp extract oil?
Hemp extract oil is a natural and non-intoxicating product that has been used to support a variety of health and wellness goals. It is made by mixing cannabidiol with a carrier oil and in the case of AlpReleaf with extracts from other plants to enhance hemp extract's supposed beneficial effects.
What is a carrier oil?
Carrier oil is a type of oil used to dilute essential oils or hemp extract oil. It is used to enhance absorption and deliver the benefits of hemp extract or other botanical extracts to the body.
What are the potential benefits of hemp extract oil?
Hemp extract oil has been reported to have numerous potential health benefits, including reducing anxiety and depression, alleviating pain and inflammation, and reducing acne. Our bodies have a special system called the Endocannabinoid System (ECS). It helps control our mood, sleep, appetite, and immune response. The ECS makes its own chemicals called endocannabinoids, which are very similar to hemp extract.
When we use hemp extract, it works with the ECS by stopping a certain enzyme from breaking down our own endocannabinoids. This means our body can use more of its own natural chemicals to keep our body in balance. Hemp extract also talks to other parts of our body, like our brain, and can make us feel better by helping our mood and reducing various discomforts.
It is important to note that research on the potential benefits of hemp extract oil is still ongoing, and further studies are needed to fully understand its effects on the human body.
What are the different types of hemp extract?
There are three main types of hemp extract Oils: ones that contain a Full Spectrum Extract, ones that contain a Broad Spectrum Extract and ones that contain Isolate hemp extract. The biggest difference lies in taste and what beneficial molecules the producer keeps inside their product.

How are hemp extract oils used?
Hemp extract oils registered as cosmetics have 2 functions - skincare and oral care. When it comes to skincare, a few drops are typically warmed up and applied to the area where you would like the oil to make its effect. For oral care, a small amount of drops(typically 2-3 to avoid swallowing) is placed under the tongue for about 30 seconds to let the oil take effect on your body.
How long does it take for hemp extract oils to take effect?
Each metabolism may react differently as everyone is different. Also depends on the dosage and frequency of use. This being said, it is fair to expect that the body will start processing hemp extract oil within approximately 30 minutes after use.
Are hemp extract oils addictive?
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), hemp extract oils are non-addictive and non-intoxicating, meaning they do not produce a "high" or cause any psychoactive effects, making them a safe and effective option for those looking to improve their well-being.
What is CO2 extraction in hemp extract oil production?
CO2 extraction is a method used to extract hemp from hemp plants. It's considered to be one of the most effective and safest ways of producing high-quality hemp extract oil. The process involves the use of supercritical CO2, which is a fluid state where carbon dioxide is held above its critical temperature and critical pressure. This method allows for the production of a pure and clean product that is free of any harmful chemicals or residues.
How do you ensure that your hemp extract oils are THC-free?
AlpReleaf ensures that all of our products are THC-free through the use of a special process called flash chromatography to remove THC from the extract while keeping the good stuff. This technique is like a smart filter that only removes the unwanted parts without harming the parts we want to keep, making our product pure and of high quality. We also conduct third-party lab tests on each batch to verify the absence of THC and ensure the purity and potency of our hemp extract oils.
What is flash chromatography?
Flash chromatography is a technique used to separate different compounds from a complex mixture, such as a full-spectrum hemp extract. It works by passing the mixture through a column filled with a solid substance called a stationary phase, which interacts with the compounds in the mixture differently based on their properties.
In the case of the extraction of hemp extract, the goal of flash chromatography is to separate THC from the other beneficial cannabinoids and terpenes in the extract. The stationary phase in the column is designed to retain the THC while allowing the other compounds to pass through. This separation is achieved by using a solvent to push the mixture through the column, with the different compounds eluting (i.e. coming out of the column) at different times based on their interactions with the stationary phase.
Flash chromatography is an advanced technique because it allows for a high degree of selectivity, meaning that it can separate the desired compounds while leaving behind unwanted ones. This is important because it allows producers to create high-quality, THC-free broad-spectrum extracts that preserve the beneficial compounds found in the hemp plant.
Are your hemp extract oils vegan and cruelty-free?
Yes, all AlpReleaf Oils are vegan and cruelty-free. They are made with natural and organic ingredients, and are not tested on animals. The company is committed to providing high-quality hemp extract products that are responsible, sustainable, and environmentally friendly.
