A decade ago, almost nobody had heard of CBD aside from a handful of researchers. Today it's a different story. The expanding CBD market is estimated to grow at an explosive rate - from $5 billion in 2019 to $23.7 billion by 2023. The infused beverages sub-market is expected to grow at for several years to come. Consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies are poised to become dominant players in the CBD-Infused market. Major medical discoveries are triggering an eruption of new products in consumer packaged goods (CPG) - reaching millions of consumers across different demographics - bringing CBD into the mainstream. Among products that new and existing customers consider trying, accessible forms such as edibles and beverages rank the highest. When CBD is extracted from the plant, it takes an oil-based form. Like any oil it is hydrophobic, meaning it will not dissolve in water. Since our bodies are made of 60% water, CBD oil resists absorption into the bloodstream. The current low levels of CBD bioavailability are putting pressure on the cannabis industry to find a solution for these products. Active cannabis companies in the markets this week include: Pressure BioSciences, Inc. (OTCQB: PBIO), Aurora Cannabis Inc. (NYSE: ACB) (TSX: ACB), OrganiGram Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: OGI) (TSX: OGI), Cronos Group Inc. (NASDAQ: CRON) (TSX: CRON), The Yield Growth Corp. (CSE: BOSS) (OTCQB: BOSQF).
