Top 5 Benefits of CBD Oil
Did you know that there are more than 100 chemical elements present in the cannabis plant, with CDB oil being only one of them?
This oil has not only proven to be an effective treatment for insomnia, stress and other medical conditions, it also helps improve mental health.
CBD has been found to be an effective treatment option for multiple
physical and psychological conditions. But, before you start, here are a
few benefits you should know.
Did you know that there are more than 100 chemical elements present
in the cannabis plant, with CDB oil being only one of them? This oil has
not only proven to be an effective treatment for insomnia, stress and
other medical conditions, it also helps improve mental health.
The best part is that although found in the cannabis plant, it does
have any intoxicating properties and is safe for use by anyone.
However, it is important to buy CBD oil, glass bong bowls and other devices only from the best online smoke shop, says BomDiggidy, a leading provider of a wide range of CBD infused products, including body butter, lip balm, soap and roll-ons.
1. Reduces Anxiety and Depression
According to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America,
6% of Americans are affected by depression and 18% by anxiety. CBD oil
has proven to be one of the best cures for these mental health issues.
Serotonin is a natural mood enhancer, released in the brain, and the
usage of the oil can help regulate and stabilize this process.
A study published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology revealed that
an oral dose of 400mg could help alleviate depression and social
anxiety. It also helps the brain minimize and control the breakdown of
Anandamide, the “bliss†element. This, in turn, improves the mental
state to a great extent.
2. CBD and Cancer
Research shows that non-psychoactive CBD oils have anti-cancer
properties. In fact, it can even help kill cancer cells in humans and
prevent them from spreading across the body. Apart from this, many side
effects of chemotherapy and other cancer treatments, such as nausea,
pain, vomiting and so on are relieved or prevented.
3. Helps Improve Sleep
CBD improves the quality of sleep for people with arthritis
and Parkinson’s disease. Since it is a good cure for a number of other
discomforts, such as pain, stress, anxiety and so on, it automatically
induces sleep by taking care of the discomfort.
4. Cures Skin Conditions
CBD has been also proven to improve skin conditions like acne, by
fighting inflammation. It is widely being used in creams and lotions to
help clear breakouts by reducing sebum production. CBD oil also has
antioxidant properties, which fight wrinkles, dullness and other signs
of aging skin. It also works great for people with sensitive skin
because of its soothing properties, which minimize redness and other
types of irritation.
5. Helps Ease Chronic Pain
When taken in a moderate amount, under the tongue, CBD oils can help
in curing chronic pain and inflammation in the human body, including
multiple sclerosis and arthritis. This is done by influencing the
endocannabinoid receptor activity and affecting the neurotransmitters.
It also minimizes surgical and nerve pain.

ZEN Graphene Solutions (ZEN:TSXV) and its partner “DLR” (The German Aerospace Center) reported more good news pertaining to their battery development program.
The results were very technical in nature but CEO Francis Dube sat down with AGORACOM to explain their meaning in layman’s terms, as well as, how good these results are relative to tests by other companies. Hint – they’re better by a wide margin.
The results were so good that DLR applied for and received federal funding to create a new Innovation Lab (the Center for Aerogels) to work with industrial partners on the development of Aerogels and other graphene-based products.
This is a significant interview and well worth the time to watch it.

From Online Gambling to Pot, Crypto Commerce Takes Off This Year
Bitcoin still accounted for about 90% of commerce transactions
Nearly $6 million in transactions done daily: Chainalysis
After being given up for dead, cryptocurrency-based commerce — albeit still tiny — has started growing again.
The amount of digital money sent to 16 merchant service providers
such as BitPay rose 65% between January and July, according to data
researcher Chainalysis. The price of Bitcoin, which accounted for 89% of
all such transactions, had more than doubled over the seven months, to
about $10,000. Typically, steep run-ups in the cryptocurrency’s price
push people to spend less, and instead to hold or to speculate.
The resurgence is in contrast to last year, when Chainalysis found that Bitcoin-based commerce was in decline.
This time around, the researcher looked not just at Bitcoin but also at
Tether, Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash, which are used to fund everything
from online gambling to purchases at pot shops.
“It suggests there’s more overall trust in crypto,†Kim Grauer,
senior economist at New York-based Chainalysis, said in a phone
interview.
In one of the biggest efforts for mainstream use, Intercontinental Exchange Inc. plans to begin testing
its consumer app for digital assets with Starbucks Inc. in the first
half of 2020. Processor BitPay and others are adding support for new
coins, also boosting commerce. The company, which says it processes more
than $1 billion annually, anticipates continued growth as new
cryptocurrencies are added to the mix including Bitcoin Cash Ether and
XRP, spokesperson Jan Jahosky said in an email.
The overall amount of crypto used in commerce remains tiny: It was
$5.5 million on average per day in July, up from only about $3 million
in January. Starbucks alone books about $70 million in sales daily.
Inconvenience has been a major barrier. Transaction confirmation on
the Bitcoin network can take an hour — making it hard for someone to
just walk in a store, buy a cup of coffee and leave. Many businesses
still don’t accept the coins. And many consumers are still leery to
spend them anyway, due to most cryptocurrencies’ wild volatility.
Increased use of Tether
— a so-called stablecoin because its price doesn’t typically fluctuate
much — gave crypto commerce a boost, with the token’s use in commerce
increasing five-fold between January and July, according to the
researcher. In those seven months, Tether accounted for 9% of all
commerce, Chainalysis said.
“There’s still a lot of growth in Bitcoin,†Grauer said. “But if you
look at Tether, especially in the second half of the year, Tether took
off.â€

The headline pretty much says it all. Though HPQ has stated the
discussions are preliminary, this doesn’t hide the fact that HPQ has
moved incredibly fast from deciding to use its world-changing silicon
manufacturing process to enter the battery market.
It was only back on August 19th when Company CEO, Bernard Tourillon,
stated HPQ would “start meeting with end users” but few would have
expected NDA based discussions with a Li-ion battery manufacturer so
soon. Ironically, Tourillon says he expected something like this
“sooner” … now that is confidence.
In a small cap market full of companies claiming the holy grail of
supplying the battery market, it wasn’t hard to understand why investors
may have dismissed the Company’s OCT 31 statement that “HPQ fully
intends to use its Gen3 to produce and market silicon materials for
batteries”.
With discussions under NDA now started with a battery manufacturer,
HPQ has now set itself far apart from the pack and has earned the right
to be taken very seriously. Investors who have been waiting for ANY
company to move from theoretical to the actual boardroom, HPQ offers a
very compelling story.

A new report produced by the editors of Hemp Industry Daily
says retail sales of CBD in the United States are on track to
surpassing $1 billion in 2019. This would imply 133% growth over 2018
sales.
Even more interestingly, the newly released 2019 Hemp & CBD Industry Factbook says CBD retail sales in the U.S. may eclipse $10 billion by 2024.
“The recent surge of consumer demand for CBD, coupled with
increasingly easy access to CBD products, is expected to drive retail
sales to about $1.1 billion-$1.3 billion in 2019,†said Kristen Nichols,
editor of the Second Annual Hemp & CBD Industry Factbook. “We
project retail CBD sales will increase to $10.3 billion by 2024, a
five-year compound annual growth rate of 54%.â€
Seeking to fill the gap left by the lack of federal agencies tracking hemp as a commodity, the 2019
Annual Hemp & CBD Industry Factbook seeks to provide understanding
of the current and future challenges needed to make the most accurate
and informed business decisions. Research-driven insights, will help
business professionals understand economic, agricultural and regulatory
developments impacting their positions and growth in the industry.
“Imagine running a race with brand-new shoes and a burst of energy
but no idea what the course looks like. That’s somewhat the position in
which today’s hempy industry finds itself,†Nichols said. “Relying on
deeply researched data points along the way could make the difference
between hitting the finish line and running off course.â€

HPQ and its partner Apollon Solar SAS have signed a non-disclosure agreement with a manufacturer of Li-ion batteries for the purposes of exchanging technical information and sending testing materials
For industry competitive reasons, the name of the battery manufacturer will remain confidential.
MONTREAL, Nov. 07, 2019 — HPQ Silicon Resources Inc. – TSX-V: HPQ; OTCPink: URAGF; FWB: UGE (“HPQ†or “the Companyâ€) is pleased to announce that HPQ and its partner Apollon Solar SAS, acting as one party, have signed a non-disclosure agreement (“NDAâ€) with a manufacturer of Li-ion batteries for the purposes of exchanging technical information and sending testing materials. For industry competitive reasons, the name of the battery manufacturer will remain confidential.
MEETINGS WITH INDUSTRY PARTICIPANTS LEAD TO NDA WITH BATTERY MANUFACTURER
In its’ press release dated August 19, 2019, HPQ announced it would
be meeting with industry participants and end users in H2 2019 about our
unique capacity to produce high purity Silicon (Si) in one step. The
NDA is a result of the manufacturer showing an interest in evaluating
porous silicon wafers made using Silicon (Si) produced by HPQ PUREVAP™Quartz Reduction Reactor
(“QRR”) and Apollon Solar patented process. Specifically, the cased use
is to explore using our porous silicon wafers as the anode for their
next generation Li-ion Si batteries.
“We are very happy to be in discussions with an innovative Li-ion
battery manufacturer and look forward to now having more substantive
technical discussions. More than four years of great technical work
culminated in the assembly of a world-class technical team in 2019 to
demonstrate the potential of silicon materials produced from the
PUREVAP™QRR as high-capacity anode materials for Li-ion batteries†said Bernard Tourillon, President and CEO HPQ Silicon. “Silicon’s potential to meet energy storage demand is undeniable and generating massive investments, as
well as, serious industry interest, so our timing could not be better.
Suffice it to say, we are very pleased to have attracted such early
interest. However, I must caution investors that although this agreement
does signal the interest in our products, we are still at the very
preliminary stages and there is no guarantee that anything, of any
commercial value, will materialize from these efforts. It does however
demonstrate the potential for new and exciting advances by HPQ and
partners in the silicon energy space.â€
GLOBAL ENERGY STORAGE MARKET READY TO EXPLODE
A recent report
projects that energy storage deployments are estimated to grow 1,300%
from a 12 Gigawatt-hour market in 2018 to a 158 Gigawatt-hour market in
2024. Meanwhile, at current growth rates of 2% per year, global energy consumption
will be an estimated 125,000 Terawatt-hours, which is 800,000 times
more than the estimated storage capacity. An estimated US$71 billion in
investments will be made into storage systems where batteries will make
up the lion’s share of capital deployment. Research suggests
that replacing graphite materials with Silicon anodes in Li-Ion
Batteries promises an almost tenfold (10x) increase in the specific
capacity of the anode, inducing a 20-40% gain in the energy density of
Li-ion batteries.
About Silicon
Silicon (Si) is one of today’s strategic materials needed to fulfil
the renewable energy revolution presently under way. Silicon does not
exist in its pure state; it must be extracted from quartz, one of the
most abundant minerals of the earth’s crust and other expensive raw
materials in a carbothermic process.
About HPQ Silicon
HPQ Silicon Resources Inc. is a TSX-V listed company developing, in
collaboration with industry leader PyroGenesis (TSX-V: PYR) the
innovative PUREVAPTM “Quartz Reduction Reactors†(QRR), a truly
2.0 Carbothermic process (patent pending), which will permit the
transformation and purification of quartz (SiO2) into Metallurgical
Grade Silicon (Mg-Si) at prices that will propagate its significant
renewable energy potential.
HPQ is also working with industry leader Apollon Solar to develop: Porous silicon wafers manufacturing using PUREVAP™
Silicon (PVAP Si) that can be used as anode for all-solid-state and
Li-ion batteries; and a metallurgical pathway of producing Solar Grade
Silicon Metal (SoG Si) that will take full advantage of the PUREVAPTM QRR
one-step production of high purity silicon (Si) and significantly
reduce the Capex and Opex associated with the transformation of quartz
(SiO2) into SoG-Si.
HPQ focus is becoming the lowest cost producer of Silicon (Si), High
Purity Silicon (Si), Porous Silicon Wafers and Solar Grade Silicon Metal
(SoG-Si). The pilot plant equipment that will validate the commercial
potential of the process is on schedule to start in 2019.
