A cannabinoid formulation including a carbon-based antioxidant. Preferably, the formulation is a colloid including C60 and cannabinoids in a lipid-based excipient. The formulation improves shelf life of cannabinoids and inhibits degradation of the cannabinoids over time due to oxidation. The present invention further sequesters, neutralizes, or inhibits, oxidative free radicals in vivo. The action of the C60 prepares the body on a cellular level to enhance the bioactivity of the cannabinoids. The function of the C60 in combination with cannabinoids greatly reduces inflammation, improves metabolism, inhibits free radical degradation of telomeres, and has many other health benefits. The C60 in combination with the cannabinoids enhances the function of the cannabinoids by improving latency and efficacy in vivo.

Concentrating cannabinoids in a lipid solution using multi-phase pressure cycles
A concentrated lipid-based solution including tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is manufactured by providing a lipid solution including an array of triglycerides, cannabinoids and water soluble contaminants in a pressure vessel. Water is added to the lipid solution to create a mixture and the pressure is increased in a first phase at a first pressure and duration and in a second phase at a second temperature and duration. The mixture is agitated to dissolve the water soluble contaminants. The mixture is cooled to cause the triglycerides and cannabinoids to solidify. The solidified triglycerides and cannabinoids, including THC, are separated to yield a purified cannabinoid solution.

A purified lipid-based solution including cannabinoids is manufactured by providing a lipid solution including an array of triglycerides, cannabinoids and water soluble contaminants. Adding water to the lipid solution to create a mixture and heating the mixture in a pressure vessel to a temperature above the melting point of the lipid solution. The mixture is agitated to dissolve the water soluble contaminants and electrocoagulated. The mixture is cooled to cause the triglycerides and cannabinoids to solidify. The water is separated from the mixture to remove water soluble contaminants, precipitated contaminants, suspended solids and colloids from the mixture to yield a purified lipid solution.

Method for increasing cannabinol content in a lipid-based extract of cannabis
cannabis containing THC, heating the lipid-based extract at 1 atm of pressure to 157 to 160° C. to vaporize a first portion of the THC, and converting a second portion of the THC to CBN by heating the lipid-based extract to between 130° C.-150° C. for at least 10 min. In one embodiment the step of vaporizing occurs after the step of converting to remove the trans-Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol from the product.
