Sproutly vs. Trait....Soooo... Trait is the first company I have found that wants to make water soluble claims and is getting some serious press....but appears to be at least a year behind Sproutly in terms of being able to verify their tech or bring it to market. They appear to have brought on a cheerleader from Diageo though. Obviously there will be competitors arriving into this space... but “trials on humans and animals that will take one to one and a half years to complete?!!”
Seriously... wtf?
Here is the quote:
Dr. Richard Sayre, Trait chief scientific officer who is based out of New Mexico, told VICE the company has developed two primary methods of making cannabinoids water soluble by adding a sugar molecule to the cannabinoid.
Sayre said the company is currently doing performance trials on animals and humans which will take one to one and a half years to complete. It is also moving towards commercial scale production which is about a year off.
