NutraFuels, Inc. and Pressure BioSciences, Inc. to Collaborate on the Development of Water-Soluble Nanoemulsion-based NutraceuticalsView Press Release on OTCMarkets.com

Coconut Creek, FL, Jan. 30, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — via NEWMEDIAWIRE — NutraFuels, Inc. (OTCQB: NTFU) (NTFU) and Pressure BioSciences, Inc. (OTCQB: PBIO) (PBI) (together, the “Companies”) today announced a collaboration to advance the development of a new generation of health and wellness nutraceutical products based on processing by PBI’s proprietary Ultra Shear Technology (UST™) platform. The Companies believe that nanoemulsions prepared by the UST Platform will have improved quality and effectiveness compared to current emulsions, which will help to facilitate the development of a new generation of improved nutraceutical and other emulsion-based products, such as cosmetics.

PBI is a leader in the development and sale of enabling high pressure-based instruments, consumables, and related services for the life sciences industry.  PBI has more than 300 high-pressure instruments installed in over 200 life sciences laboratories worldwide, including in some of the world’s leading academic, government, and biopharmaceutical laboratories.

 NTFU manufactures and distributes nutritional and dietary supplements focusing on in-house product development and the highest manufacturing standards. All quality control testing and manufacturing processes are in compliance with FDA and cGMP standards. NTFU has developed multiple products for the wellness and nutraceutical markets, including formulas to support energy and focus, sleep, stress, joints, and weight loss.

 Edgar J. Ward, President and CEO of NTFU, said: “We pride ourselves in ensuring that we incorporate the highest level of quality possible in our manufactured products. When we heard that PBI was developing their new, proprietary UST processing platform, and learned of its potential to significantly increase the quality and effectiveness of nutraceutical products, we spoke with PBI and offered to help accelerate its commercial introduction. We are thrilled to be working with such experienced scientific leaders and innovators, in a program that we believe can change lives worldwide for the better.”

 Mr. Ward continued: “We believe PBI’s UST platform has the potential to create long-term room temperature stable, water-soluble nanoemulsions of oil-based solutions. Nanoemulsions are known to offer greater stability and bioavailability than the standard macroemulsions used today in nutraceuticals, cosmetics, and other industries.  We are excited to have the opportunity to work with a life science industry leader in the optimization of a process that has the potential to bring higher quality not just to our products, but to nutraceutical products worldwide.”

 Dr. Bradford A. Young, Chief Commercial Officer of PBI, commented: “We are pleased to have the opportunity to work with NTFU’s scientists and manufacturing personnel in the development of new and improved nutraceutical products utilizing our UST platform. This proprietary technology employs ultra-high pressure and extreme shearing forces to create nano-scale emulsions of oil and water with long-term stability. For many oil-based products, the ability to create very small, nanometer-sized oil droplets that can effectively dissolve in water (nanoemulsions) can improve a product’s appearance, sensory and medicinal benefits. There is a large and growing market opportunity for nutraceutical products with proven health and wellness benefits. We believe PBI’s UST platform can help manufacturers accelerate growth and success in this market with higher quality, water-soluble, oil-based products with superior dietary absorption and shelf-life.”

 Mr. Richard T. Schumacher, President and CEO of PBI, added: “We are excited to work with Edgar and his NTFU team in the optimization of our UST platform, which we believe will result in the development of new and beneficial health and wellness products.  The staff at NTFU has years of experience in manufacturing nutraceutical products in a quality environment. They also have access to both raw materials and finished goods, both of which are needed for optimization.  Finally, they have an existing analytical laboratory with state-of-the-art equipment and well-trained chemists who can perform testing on both pre and post-processed materials, which will be invaluable to the optimization process. This collaboration clearly supports both company’s strategic objectives: we look forward to an exciting and mutually beneficial relationship with our colleagues at NutraFuels.”

Selling cannabis or hemp on Times Square? Florida company makes marketing history

Check out our news article on FloridaPolitics.com

While CBS still won’t run medical marijuana advertisements during the Super Bowl, a Florida company just ran the first-ever ads for cannabis-based products in Times Square.

NutraFuels, a nutraceutical manufacturing company with a line of hemp-derived CBD products under the brand NutraHempCBD (www.nutrahempcbd.com) was in the first digital billboard cannabis campaign in the famed intersection.

“This ad campaign was our way to celebrate the deregulation of hemp and create awareness of its health and wellness benefits,” said Edgar Ward, president and CEO of NutraFuels.

While companies with hemp and cannabis products in the past have tried to buy ad space in Times Square before, the marketing debuted concurrently with a change in the law.

Until this year, federal law technically classified all parts of the cannabis plant as marijuana, a scheduled narcotic. But the 2018 Farm Bill, as explained by the Billings Institute, differentiated hemp, a part of the plant containing less than 0.3 percent tetrahydrocannabinol. Better known as THC, that’s the stuff that gets people high.

“This campaign was our way of celebrating the Farm Bill and the deregulation of hemp,” said NutraFuels spokeswoman Chloe Sommers.

While the federal government long turned a blind eye to the sale of hemp and CBD oil, which can be sold in all 50 states, major media companies would not accept an advertisement for a product still technically prohibited by law.

It’s much the same reasoning that led CBS to reject an advertisement for Acreage Holdings, which sells medical marijuana, on the grounds the government still considers the sale of the product a crime.

But after the deregulation of hemp and CBD, Honeysuckle Magazine, a lifestyle magazine that regularly writes about the organic products, got approval to run a Times Square billboard campaign.

“It sounded interesting to me, so I jumped on the chance,” said Ronit Pinto, Honeysuckle owner. She offered space to many of advertisers working with her company, and many cannabis-related brands took part, including NutraFuels.

It turns out, the campaign marked the first time anyone sold cannabis-based products like hemp and CBD on a Times Square billboard.

“We started realizing what a great opportunity this involved for a lot of our brand partners, and just kept buying more time,” she said. “It became a huge thing.”

NutraFuels advertised its in-house CBD product NutraHempCBD. The ads provided tremendous exposure for the Coconut Beach-beached company, which employs about 12 people.

The Florida business remains one of the companies that’s continued to participate in the campaign as ad buys stretched into February.

The campaign still faces certain restrictions, Pinto said. There can’t be any pictures of the actual cannabis plant.

Advertisements also can’t show drug paraphernalia as the content must focus on those cannabis products legal under the new farm bill.

But the high-profile advertising could mark the first entry into mainstream marketing for a growing cannabis industry. Maybe the Super Bowl in 2020 will see such products promoted in commercial breaks.

“It’s the right thing to do,” Sommers said. “If you are doing the right thing and doing it by the rules, you should be able to market your product and be seen. CBS is buying into a stigma that’s actually flawed.”

“When it comes to cannabis, until the federal cannabis laws change like the hemp laws were, national media companies will be unlikely to accept their advertising,”  said NutraFuels spokesperson Chloe Sommers. “This positions CBD products well and it looks like it will only get better with time.
