Lexaria Bioscience’s (CSE: LXX) (OTCQX: LXRP) innovative DehydraTECH(TM) platform works to deliver chemical compounds to the bloodstream at speeds similar to inhalation methods, offering an alternative to smoking. An article discussing the company further reads, “Lexaria’s noncombustion-based, noninhalation-based delivery method requires no chemicals or additives. . . . ‘We use a patented dehydration synthesis process to combine the nicotine with simple ingredients like sunflower oil in a unique way,’ CEO Chris Bunka told Forbes (http://cnw.fm/HpQm1). ‘It allows for the removal of the bitter taste often associated with nicotine without the need for artificial flavors that are often appealing to children. Moreover, tested in animals in 2018, we proved that DehydraTECH could deliver nicotine to the bloodstream of an animal in as little as two minutes. The fact that it is fast means that smokers might not be frustrated waiting for their nicotine experience to begin, the way they have been with traditional nicotine products such as gums and lozenges.’
