Open Book Extracts (OBX) has launched new edible products using Unlokt technology from Day Three Labs. Unlokt is a novel protein-based infusion technology that uses a fully water-soluble powder that contains natural food-grade ingredients. The powder can be incorporated into a range of formats including gummies, beverages, and sublinguals.
 
Most cannabinoids and terpenes are metabolized by the liver when ingested. The Unlokt technology combines cannabis within a natural protein that shuttles the cannabis directly into the body’s circulation by bypassing first-pass metabolism in the liver, protecting cannabinoids and terpenes, which allows for better release and absorption in the bloodstream, the company reports.
 
“Open Book Extracts has a proven track record of partnering with innovative companies and their technologies, to offer the highest quality products to our expanding global client base,” said Nicole Brown, Open Book Extracts chief innovation officer. “Products featuring the Unlokt technology deliver Open Book Extracts’ hallmark ingredients, flavors, and textures with the added benefit of providing faster onset with a consistent experience, and clean, all-natural ingredients.
 
“Open Book Extracts’ highly-trusted formulas and science-backed innovation have made them leaders in the cannabinoid industry, and we are excited to count them as a valued partner,” said Josh Rubin, co-founder of Day Three Labs. “Unlokt works to increase the bioavailability of rare cannabinoids that are present and already being utilized by the OBX team of scientists and we are optimistic about the outcomes this new product line will yield for people who may be struggling with inflammation, pain, stress, and anxiety.”
