USA​

House of Representatives passes CBD banking bill​

The US House of Representatives passed the SAFE Banking Act allowing companies dealing in hemp or hemp-derived CBD products to use financial institutions that are part of the FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation). 

The bill now passes to the Senate.

Daniel Fabricant, PhD, president of the Natural Products Association, said that while having the banking bill advance another step in the legislative process is a good thing, there is still a long way to go because the US Food and Drug Administration still considers CBD to be an illegal dietary ingredient.

“This is a win for legitimate businesses who are selling CBD products, but the bottom line is it doesn’t change the fact that congress needs to direct FDA to set a safe level of consumption for CBD,” ​said Fabricant.

“We will continue to work with the House and Senate to ensure that consumers have the information they need to make informed decisions about their health, especially when it comes to the fast-growing CBD marketplace.”​

Key trends for dietary supplements and pharma in APAC​

According to Mintel, three key trends for dietary supplements and pharma companies across APAC are foods for special medical purposes (FSMP), functional foods, and ease of convenience.

Michelle Teodoro, senior food science and nutrition analyst at Mintel Food and Drink, told NutraIngredients-Asia that Foods for Special Medical Purposes (FSMP) have been gaining attention from firms.

“Both pharmaceutical and food and drink companies can find themselves out of their comfort zones when it comes to pharma foods, with different barriers to entry.​

“Food and drink companies will need to expand their R&D capabilities to enhance their scientific creditability while developing relationships with new types of partners including drug stores and health practitioners,” ​she said.

On convenience, Teodoro noted that speedy effect claims are the fastest growing claims in APAC, while portability and ease-of-use claims, also offer opportunities.

We study the effects of cannabidiol (CBD), a non-psychoactive component of cannabis that does not produce the high associated with smoking or using it."There is a lot of debate on the health effects of marijuana and the use of cannabinoids, which are a group of compounds found in marijuana that have anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving, anti-nausea and anti-emetic properties. However, there is a lack of solid scientific evidence to guide us in the application of cannabis therapeutics."
