When most people think about hemp wellness products, they imagine natural plant extracts suspended in a carrier oil. What they don't realize is that the size of those extract particles plays a dramatic role in how much benefit your body actually receives. That's where nano-hemp enters the picture — and it's changing everything we know about botanical wellness.
What Nano-Technology Means in Wellness
Nano-technology refers to the science of manipulating matter at the nanometer scale. To put that into perspective, a single human hair is approximately 80,000 nanometers wide. Our proprietary nano fragmentation process reduces hemp particles to under 100 nanometers — meaning they're roughly 800 times smaller than the width of a human hair.
Why does this matter? Because your body's ability to absorb and utilize a compound is directly related to the particle size of that compound. Think of it like trying to dissolve a sugar cube versus powdered sugar in your coffee. The smaller the particles, the more readily and completely they integrate.
The Particle Size Advantage
Traditional hemp products contain particles that typically measure 5,000 nanometers or larger. These larger particles struggle to pass through cellular membranes efficiently. As a result, much of what you consume simply passes through your system unused. Research suggests that standard hemp oil formulations may have bioavailability as low as 6-10%.
How Proprietary Nano Fragmentation Works
At Wild Roots Hemp, we use a proprietary nano fragmentation technology developed by a powerful West Coast biotech company. This process, refined by Ivy League PhD scientists, breaks down hemp extract into nano-sized particles through a series of precisely controlled steps.
The result is a stable suspension of nano-particles that remain evenly distributed throughout the liquid — no shaking required, no separation over time. These particles are small enough to be absorbed through the mucous membranes in your mouth, bypassing the digestive process that typically degrades so much of a compound's potency.
Three Key Benefits of Nano-Hemp
- Faster Onset: Because nano-particles absorb through mucous membranes, you may notice effects within 10-15 minutes rather than the 45-90 minutes typical of traditional formulations.
- Better Absorption: Our nano fragmentation achieves 3-8x higher bioavailability, meaning your body actually uses more of what you take.
- Longer Duration: Nano-encapsulated compounds are protected from premature breakdown, providing sustained support over a longer period.
Why Wild Roots Chose Nano Technology
As parents, we wanted to create products that actually worked — not products that sounded impressive on a label but delivered minimal results. When we learned about the absorption challenges with traditional hemp formulations, we knew nano-technology was the answer.
Our partnership with our West Coast biotech partner gave us access to some of the brightest scientific minds in the nano-technology field. They had already solved the hard problems: creating stable nano-suspensions that don't degrade over time, maintaining particle size consistency from batch to batch, and doing it all without harsh chemical processes.
The Difference Between Traditional and Nano-Hemp
When you place a traditional hemp tincture under your tongue, you're mostly getting carrier oil with large hemp particles floating in it. Some absorption happens, but it's limited and slow. The rest gets swallowed, processed by your liver, and largely eliminated.
With nano-hemp, the experience is fundamentally different. The nano-particles disperse immediately in the moisture of your mouth, beginning absorption within moments. More of the active compounds reach your bloodstream, and they do so faster and more efficiently.
"Nano-technology isn't a marketing buzzword for us — it's the reason our products actually deliver the results our customers feel. When you understand the science, the choice becomes obvious."
At Wild Roots Hemp, we believe that better science leads to better wellness. Our commitment to nano-technology reflects our deeper commitment to you: creating products that work as hard as you do, backed by research you can trust.
