OUR LOW VISCOSITY CARRIER SOLUTION

OUR LOW VISCOSITY SOLUTION

Our patented base carrier solution was created in the late 70’s by our consultant Dr Tom Chapman, whilst treating malaria in Mozambique. At first, he was administering medicine orally, with a 120mg dose required. When he dissolved that same medicine into his carrier solution, and administered it sublingually, only 15mg was needed.  Dr Chapman continued to treat malaria with his patented solution, with his successful results leading to a chair on the W.H. O’s anti-malaria board. Fast forward almost 30 years to 1994, where Tom’s low viscosity solution made its debut in the cannabinoid industry. Tom, together with his colleagues, Geoffrey Guy and Brian Whittle (GW Pharma) were visiting a pain management clinic in Marble Arch, London. Upon their visit, they noticed that a majority of the patients were conjugating down a side road opposite the exit. As the three of them neared the crowd, a distinct smell of marijuana enveloped the air, which immediately caught their attention. They then began to interview the smokers, intrigued to discover how much cannabis was helping them, and within days commenced with further research. The three of them spent the next four years developing Sativex, a sublingual THC/CBD spray, using Tom’s ultra-low viscosity solution. Our science and development team, working alongside a renowned UK university’s Biochemist department, have enhanced Tom’s carrier solution, and taken it to new levels. Unlike other CBD oils (4500nm), that have a higher viscosity (thickness), Nano Mist is rapidly absorbed via the Nano-sized pores under the tongue. Due  to  the unique  particle size of our  carrier solution, and the surface area the spray covers, around 80% of the CBD content is absorbed directly into the bloodstream, in comparison to other CBD oils’ 6-19%. Quite simply put, any CBD oils with a typical carrier (MCT, hemp, olive, coconut, almond etc) are just too thick, to be anywhere near fully absorbed under the tongue. The 81-94% that has failed to be absorbed under the tongue, is then usually swallowed, where it arrives at the ‘first pass metabolism’.  The remaining cannabinoids are then broken down by our strong stomach acids, and subsequently wasted.
