(BOSQF) (CSE:BOSS) (OTCQB:BOSQF) (Frankfurt:YG3) is pleased to announce that it has finalized product formulations and selected all THC and CBD strains for its first 9 products to launch in Oregon through a 400 retail distribution network.

Pursuant to its agreement with a licensed cannabis processing facility in Oregon, Yield Growth subsidiary UJ Topicals’ branded products will be launching in the Oregon legal cannabis market. The products include CBD and THC oils, Analgesic Topical Gel with THC and CBD, Pain Balm with THC and CBD, Massage Oil with THC and CBD, and 3 types of capsules containing THC and Ayurvedic herbal formulations, blended with ingredients that have been used to treat arthritis and chronic pain. All of the cannabis topical products have been formulated based on Urban Juve proprietary formulas, for which 11 provisional patents have been filed in the U.S.
“We have formulated our products with very high concentrations of THC and CBD for maximum effect,” says Penny Green, CEO of The Yield Growth Corp. “It’s our hope that Oregon residents will embrace our cannabis products as viable treatments for chronic pain.”
Cannabis treatment is effective for chronic pain and nausea and vomiting due to chemotherapy, according to a 2017 report by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine.
Chronic pain is the most common reason given for medical marijuana prescriptions in the U.S., and chronic pain affects an estimated 100 million Americans, according to an article in healthaffairs.org.
According to Statista, in 2018, legal sales of cannabis amounted to nearly U.S. $10 billion, and sales are projected to be over $16 billion in 2021, of which the State of Oregon is expected to account for almost $1 billion.
