The Company is targeting the month of March 2019 for its commercial launch of Tauri-Gum TM and is hopeful to generate revenue during this current operating quarter (its 4 th  Fiscal Quarter of 2019).     

AN IMPORTANT COMMITMENT: The Company wishes to confirm to its shareholders, that at all times, it will remain in compliance with both U.S. Federal and individual State rules and regulations & laws that govern this sector.  At the same time, the Company will be constantly monitoring the legal landscape which could experience material change(s), at any point in the future.       

Studies have shown that a chewing gum product may provide a superior delivery method for distributing its key active ingredients (such as CBD), in comparison to other oral dosage forms, such as: pills, capsules, beverages, and gummies.  As an individual chews gum, the CBD is released from the gum quickly and is absorbed by the Oral Mucosa, rather than the Digestive System.  Bypassing the Digestive Tract allows the CBD to maintain its inherent bioavailability, and it also means that the CBD gets absorbed by the body – substantially faster than other forms of Oral Ingestion.  Studies have also shown that CBD that is swallowed as capsules, beverages, gummies or edibles delivers less than 10% of the CBD shown on each respective label.
