Blue Lotus 20X - 3g - Harsextract

Extra Information - Blue Lotus 20x Resin Extract

What is blue lotus 20x resin extract?

Blue lotus 20x resin extract is a concentrated extract of the flower petals of Nymphaea caerulea, also known as Egyptian blue lotus or blue water lily. The '20x' designation means the active compounds from twenty times the quantity of dried flower petals have been extracted and concentrated into a compact resin form. The result is a dark brown, sticky resin that is considerably more potent than loose dried flowers.

What active compounds does blue lotus resin extract contain?

The key active compounds are nuciferine and aporphine, both belonging to the class of aporphine alkaloids. Nuciferine interacts with dopamine receptors and is associated with calming properties. Aporphine is a non-selective dopamine agonist that also influences serotonin and alpha-adrenergic receptors. Additionally, blue lotus contains flavonoids, anthocyanins, and phytosterols that contribute to the plant's overall profile.

How to use blue lotus 20x resin extract

Tea: Take 0.25 grams of resin extract and steep it in a cup of hot water for 15 minutes. Stir well to dissolve the resin. You can combine the tea with honey to soften the bitter taste.

Wine infusion: Soak 0.25 grams of resin extract in a carafe of wine for at least 2 to 4 hours. The alkaloids dissolve better in alcohol than in water, making this method potentially more effective. The ancient Egyptians used this technique thousands of years ago.

Vaporising: Vaporise the resin at a temperature between 100°C and 125°C in a vaporiser suitable for concentrates. This method produces the quickest effect.

Recommended dosage

Beginners: 0.25 grams per session. Experienced users: 0.25 to 0.5 grams per session. Never exceed 0.5 grams in a single session. Always build up slowly and give your body time to adjust to the effect.

What are the effects of blue lotus resin extract?

Users report a subtle euphoric and calming feeling, comparable to mild relaxation. Some experience heightened sensory awareness, a meditative mood, and a sense of well-being.

Difference between blue lotus resin extract and dried flowers

The resin extract is 20 times as concentrated as dried flower petals, meaning far less is needed per session. Dried flowers are milder and more suitable for those who prefer a lighter effect, for instance as a tea. The resin extract is more compact, longer-lasting, and more effective per gram. Those who prefer a liquid form can also choose the blue lotus tincture 15x or the blue lotus alkaloid extract.
