Happy 420 Day. Not only are we celebrating the legalization of Marijuana, but we’re also celebrating the 100th episode of the Cannabis Advocate podcast. Today we discuss the business aspects of the Medicinal CBD market, how to fund a CBD business, how to create partnerships and differentiate it from the sketchy CBD products we see at gas stations. Our guest is Bryan Christopher from Kerwell, a wellness store that focuses on natural wellness products. Bryan share his journey and his view of the future when it comes to CBD products.
Kerwell Medicinal CBD Products
The 2018 Farm Bill triggered the production and sales of minor cannabinoids with intoxicatingly psychoactive effects, such as delta-8 THC and THC-O-acetate. These products have created a pushback in states that have yet to legalize cannabis. They have created a grey market as they are used as an alternative to recreational cannabis, especially by consumers who live in those U.S. states that have yet to churn out adult-use cannabis legislation. Is there still a place for CBD only products? In the interview I asked Bryan about:
- How CBD products have been available across the nation since 2018, targeting medical applications. But with the advent of Delta 8, Delta 10 and derived Delta 9 products we see bans in Texas What’s going on here?
- How it seems every gas station is chock full of CBD products. How does Kerwell compete in this market?
- Why does CBD work in the human body? Purportedly it provides relief for pain. Physiologically how does this work?
- A new farm bill will be passed in 2023. What changes do he anticipate in the hemp space?
- The CBD and Cannabis markets have run parallel in the last 5 years. How can they work together?
