CBD and potential impurities, we determined that no appreciable amount of CBD was lost during the UST process. These results compare well to our standard processing method of ultrasonication, which can carry a risk of measurable loss of CBD, and sometimes creates the appearance of impurities if not performed properly. While there is more work to be done, as a nutraceutical manufacturer with products already on the market, we see these results as a robust leap towards better optimization of our CBD-enhanced products.’ Dr. Keith Warriner, Professor of Food Science at the University of Guelph (Toronto), and a recognized expert in the cannabis
industry, commented: ‘The data released today on USTgenerated nanoemulsions of CBD oil are very impressive. Creating nanoemulsions of CBD oil with full preservation of CBD throughout the process, while not generating impurities, remains a significant challenge in the industry. These data indicate that UST can achieve that goal, thereby offering great promise to the future.’ Professor Warriner continued: ‘Not only does the UST process appear capable of achieving stability of emulsions, but the controlled heating that also occurs may offer a valid alternative to thermal and nonthermal pasteurization methods

AMH18038
A New Golden Age for Medical Herbalism medicine clinic in Singapore. Last year, SLC was recognised in Global Health & Pharma out more about the company’s ethos, culture and imminent future. The alternative medicine sector has flourished on the back of a renewed interest in the greater health and wellness sphere over the last couple of years. People are now actively seeking out healthier, more sustainable, natural alternatives to pharmaceuticals, following in the footsteps of their ancestors hundreds of years ago. Herbal remedies, perhaps too easily dismissed as ‘old wives tales’ are now thoroughly in vogue, their effectiveness reinforced by scientific research. Unlike its popular Chinese variant, Sebastian’s unique take on medical herbalism finds its origins in Classical Europe, through the work of noted
physicians Hippocrates, Galen and Pedanius Dioscorides – an ancient sort of wisdom. Sebastian takes a moment to offer more insight into his work. “My work involves clinical consultations for clients and patients who want to seek alternative treatment or solutions for their health conditions. They are usually mature adults and young families who believe in the natural approach to health and treatment of a variety of diseases – autoimmune, allergies, skin diseases such as eczema and hives, fatigue, heart diseases, hormonal issues, depression and anxiety, to name a few. To this day, Sebastian Liew Centre remains a bastion of medical herbalism, and one of the few centres in Asia
who advocate for a European approach. “My practice is one of a kind in Singapore. Many people in the region are still ignorant of phytomedicine, though many are familiar with traditional Chinese medicine. I try my best to be a healing-centred medical herbalist, always putting my patients’ interests first, and profits second. I also enjoy sharing my experiences and knowledge via my blog, articles, talks and books, so people can have informed choices and an avenue for healthy, effective alternatives.” “I am known to dispense safe, high quality, pharmaceutical grade herbal medicine, health products and supplements, supported by personal coaching and a holistic approach. I am very much known in my circle to
always and constantly be looking for the highest quality products for my clients. I believe my circle of clients and followers also realise I am not a trend follower. I stand for what I believe and stand by what I don’t.” As we come to the close of the interview, Sebastian takes some time to talk about the future of his company. Most notably, 2019 heralds a new product range under the brand name, Leaf to Life, which aims to help others across Asia to benefit from Sebastian’s twenty years of experience in complementary health practices. “We will have a completely new website and social media platform, with the aim to reach out to people across the Asia Pacific. The Leaf to Life brand has a special focus on wholistic aging™, a term I coined to mean a state of wholeness and functional ability in our physical body, mind, and soul. I hope to do more education through Leaf to Life all over Singapore and beyond so that more people will liver a better and healthful lives.”
