BioHarvest Sciences CEO Ilan Sobel and Chief Medical Officer Dr. Brian Cornblatt join the show to talk about how BioHarvest Sciences has hacked all of the sustainability and logistical issues that traditionally come with manufacturing plant-based compounds. They discuss the groundbreaking process by which - through its patented technology – BioHarvest Sciences is able to essentially supercharge the compound within the plant that has the most scientifically-backed therapeutic efficacy, all without chemically altering the molecule.
BioHarvest Sciences has figured out how to properly get those healing compounds into the blood stream, into our cells, and into our tissues in an ingenious way - again, without chemically altering the molecule AT ALL. Most importantly, they put enormous amounts of resources into research and development so that their claims are not just theoretical but actually backed by clinical data. Plus, they join the show on an exciting day as BioHarvest Sciences began trading on the NASDAQ.
