European Union Courts Clear the Way for CBD in Europe

Vancouver, BC – November, 23 2020 – Sativa Wellness Group Inc. (CSE: SWEL) (“Sativa Wellness” or the “Company”) wishes to announce that following the European Court of Justice (the “ECJ”) has ruled that cannabidiol (“CBD”) is not a classified as a narcotic drug, the Company anticipates that the EU FSA will resume their Novel Food process, and subject to the process being agreed, this should be an easy transition for the Company.

 

The ECJ ruling provides that CBD is not classified as a narcotic drug, and that the French ban on hemp derived CBD contradicts European Union (“EU”) law. This decision opens the door for high quality, compliant CBD companies to operate in markets across the EU. Sativa Wellness welcomes this news as the Company operates CBD extraction and production facilities and markets, distributes and sells CBD products throughout the UK and the EU.

 

The Company has embraced the industry regulations in the UK and are on track to have its Novel Food dossier, incorporating an extensive product range, validated by the UK Food Safety Authority ahead of the March 2021 deadline. Following the ECJ ruling, the Company anticipates that the EU FSA will resume their Novel Food process, and subject to the process being agreed, this should be an easy transition for the company to progress towards.

 

Sativa Wellness holds a unique ‘seed to consumer’ position in the market, offering consistent quality control of the cannabinoid, full traceability of ingredients, manufacturing and testing with the added reassurance to the customer that each batch is QR coded which tracks back to its testing report.

 

From this enviable position the Company has developed the ‘Goodbody’ brand – CBD you can trust. Under the Goodbody brand umbrella are the Goodbody Botanicals range for the everyday and pharmaceutical markets and the Goodbody Wellness brand, with its addition of Vitamin D, as a premium CBD brand for the health and beauty spa market.

 

The Goodbody range is available at retailers and direct to the consumer online through Goodbodystore.com and soon available in Europe. As part of our route to market the Company intends to focus on retail listings and selling directly online within Europe.

 

We welcome the news of the EU’s highest court ruling. As a UK and European company that is committed to working with regulators and delivering the highest quality CBD wellness products, this news helps to enable our expansion plans. We currently own extraction and production capabilities in Europe and see this large market as a key driver for our growth for not only our CBD isolate and distillate ingredients, but also for our Goodbody CBD brands!“ said Henry Lees-Buckley, CEO of Sativa Wellness.

Sativa Wellness Group Launches COVID Testing Clinic in Store

Vancouver, BC – November 19, 2020 – Sativa Wellness Group Inc. (CSE:SWEL) (“Sativa Wellness” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that as part of Sativa Wellness’ commitment to safety and wellness in our communities, we are launching a private COVID-19 testing clinic inside our Goodbody Wellness store in Bath on 19th November.

 

The clinic will be providing PCR testing for travel and work, antigen testing (results in 15 minutes) as well as antibody testing for those who want to find out if they have had COVID 19 and to see if they have developed antibodies.

 

Customers book an appointment online, and will attend in-store to self-administer the test guided by a trained medical professional. The Company is already seeing strong demand in pre-bookings for this service.

 

Sativa Wellness provides numerous products to help customers during these challenging times, including our popular Goodbody Wellness CBD with vitamin D, and a complete range of hand sanitiser products designed for use in restaurants, businesses and for personal use, available in-store or online at “https://www.goodbodystore.com“.

 

The UK Government is evaluating a ‘Test to Release’ scheme which is expected to reduce the quarantine period after travelling abroad, by taking a test five or seven days after returning to the UK. However, negative tests are already a requirement when travelling to a number of countries from the UK. Appointments should be made in line with the Government guidelines on when your test is required for travel.

 

The private clinic is designed for people who aren’t presenting symptoms but who need a negative test for travel, work or peace of mind when visiting vulnerable relatives. Anyone with symptoms should instead book an NHS test and follow the Government isolation procedures.

 

The PCR lab test is a swab sent for analysis at an accredited laboratory to test for the presence of COVID-19. A certificate delivered direct via email and SMS is provided to permit travelling and pass immigration. The test is 98% sensitive if the virus is found on the swab and has a 48-72-hour turnaround. The test cost £155.

 

A rapid antigen test is also available, which checks whether you are carrying the COVID-19 virus and could be infectious to others. Sensitivity is 92.5% and Specificity is 99.8%. Results are available in 15 minutes and the test costs £75.

 

Finally, an IgG and IgM rapid antibody test costing £55 is available which tests to see if you have already had COVID-19 and have developed antibodies. The test has an accuracy of 98.3% and results are available in just 15 minutes.

 

According to George Thomas, Managing Director of Goodbody Botanicals, “Our expertise in good health and wellbeing made it an obvious transition to be able to offer COVID testing in our store. The same attention to detail and care has been taken to ensure we can offer the best testing in a safe, calm environment. We hope this service will give people the peace of mind, and proof, required to return to travel, work and visiting friends and family when this is possible”.
