FAQ

CBD, or cannabidiol, is a compound found in hemp, primarily in the flowers and the leaves. It's a naturally occurring substance that is used in products like oils and edibles.
Total Spectrum is what lies beyond “full spectrum”, and can only be preserved from the plant into the final product by our patented Lossless Activation™ process. CBD is only one of many, many active components in Cannabis flowers. Other well-known components include THC, terpenes, flavonoids, and many more. Prominent cannabis clinicians, like Dr. Ethan Russo, have discovered that the potential benefits of a cannabinoid - like CBD or THC - are enhanced when it remains combined with all these other active components. This is called the “entourage effect”, and is important to the future of cannabis-based products. With our patented process, we infuse our products with a larger amount and a wider variety of these other components than any other technology - purposefully - to preserve the strongest potential possible in our finished products.
LACY stands for Lossless Activation Chamber Y- it is a proprietary and patented system that allows for the activation of cannabis without any degradation of original plant profile. It allows you to capture the full effects of any particular strain into a variety of non-smoked forms, resulting in the world’s first truly strain-specific non-smoked cannabis products. LACY makes cannabis a legitimate, effective, and holistic product.
The Entourage Effect is a mechanism by which compounds present in cannabis which are largely non-psychoactive (terpenes, flavonoids, etc.) by themselves modulate the overall psychoactive effects of the plant. All of the compounds in cannabis (like cannabinoids and terpenes), working in together create the distinct effects of a specific strain of cannabis. LACY™ is the first and only system to preserve the entourage effect of a specific strain all the way through the activation/decarb process.

Cannabinoids are a class of molecules that work on the endocannabinoid system found in each and everyone of us. There are two kinds of cannabinoids: (1) endocannabinoids - those found in your body naturally (used to regulate a variety of bodily functions)and (2) phytocannabinoids - plant based cannabinoids that are found most abundantly in cannabis. The cannabinoids found in cannabis need activation prior to use but traditional methods of activation destroys the rest of the plant profile (namely terpenes). LACY activates these plant based cannabinoids (with no degradation) while maintaining the whole plant profile as well.

Terpenes are an important component to the overall cannabis experience, not only influencing a strain’s taste and smell but also influencing its effects on the body. Terpenes work in concert to either catalyze or inhibit effects of other compounds within the plant. This entourage effect is the unique and synergistic combination of cannabinoids and terpenes, ultimately producing the unique effects that distinguish one strain of cannabis from another. Over 100 different terpenes have been identified in cannabis. LACY is the first and only system capable of maintaining these vital compounds (and others) throughout the activation process.

YIPS™ is legal for sale and use in the United States, it contains less than 0.3% THC. So yes, it does contain THC, but don't freak out! A little bit of THC contributes to the entourage effect along with all of the other total spectrum goodies found in Yips. Just like how in coffee there are minor compounds that help enhance the good effects of caffeine and lower the negatives - same concept applies here. Nature knows best, and we don't want to mess with that. We ensure our products are always compliant with applicable Federal and State laws, and as such YIPS™ is not available in all locations.
Absolutely, and at more stages in production than most of our competitors. Quality Assurance is a cornerstone of YIPS™ manufacturing philosophy. Our science staff came from analytical testing of medical cannabis, and they bring this perfectly-suited experience to product formulation
