NSHS NanoSphere Health Sciences Inc

Vancouver (April 2, 2019)– NanoSphere Health Sciences Inc. (CSE: NSHS) (OTC: NSHSF) is pleased to announce its Evolve cannabis products will be available for purchase in California for the first time, after receiving final approval by the State of California.

NanoSphere’s Evolve Formula NanoSerum™ is expected to hit store shelves in the Los Angeles area by April 8th. 

NanoSerum™ is a transdermal serum that immediately penetrates the skin to deliver direct-focused relief from pain, inflammation, and anxiety. The serum is able to easily pass through the skin due to NanoSphere’s patented nanoparticle technology. 

The Evolve Formulas serum will begin shipping to retail outlets next week, said NanoSphere President David Sutton. “This is another major step for our Evolve Formulas line of cannabis products, as we are now moving into the largest legal cannabis market in the world,” Sutton said.

“We have had a great response to our NanoSerum™ in Colorado, and now this revolutionary product will be available to the people of California for the first time.”

The NanoSerum is produced and distributed in California by Vertical, one of the first and largest vertically integrated companies in the legal US medical cannabis industry. (vertcos.com) Vertical operates cannabis growing and extract operations, but also features world-class capabilities in product development, co-packing, branding, marketing, distribution and legal compliance.

“Vertical has been a great partner for our expansion into the California market,” said NanoSphere CEO Robert Sutton. “They have deep experience in marketing, distribution and regulatory from their past experience in the alcohol industry, and the same commitment to excellence has been applied to the cannabis industry.”

Vertical President J. Smoke Wallin said the approval of NanoSphere’s technology marks a new turning point in the cannabis industry. “Our team is dedicated to building out the industry’s leading sales and distribution platform in multiple markets, and a big part of that is bringing our customers the most advanced products for both the medical and recreational markets,” Wallin said. “We couldn’t be more excited to bring NanoSphere’s cutting edge solution Evolve to our licensed retailers and medical dispensaries in California.”

NanoSphere is preparing a second line of products to register for sale in the California and Colorado recreational cannabis markets. The Evolve Formulas NanoGel™ is produced by encapsulating a full spectrum of cannabinoids and terpenes in smart lipid nanoparticles, which are transported through the mucous membrane and into the bloodstream, activating target receptors in the brain within minutes.

 Evolve Formulas NanoGel™ provides a faster onset, precise dosing, higher bioavailability, and a similar effect to smoking or vaping cannabis, but without the potential harm to the lungs.

Analysis by Cowen & Co. predicts the cannabis industry in the United States is expected to grow to $50 billion by 2026, with California accounting for about $25 billion of that market, according to a report by Cannabis Financial Network (CFN: https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/california-cannabis-market-expected-to-reach-51-billion-market-value-685917412.html)
