- CNSC produces proprietary CBD products under the Xceptol brand that are created with branded Technology CiBiDinol that increases absorbability, bioavailability, shelf life
- Third-party Xceptol testing shows 300% increased gut absorption, 400% increased skin penetration when compared to mainstream CBD oil products
Researchers from the Imperial College of London recently conducted a review that examined the impact of cannabis-based medicinal products containing cannabidiol (“CBD”) on the frequency of epileptic seizures and determined that they offer patients significant relief from intractable epilepsy (

CannAssist International (OTCQB: CNSC) is dedicated to addressing these problems through the creation of CBD products using their branded technology CiBiDinol specifically created to overcome these critical issues. Marketed under the Xceptol consumer brand, CNSC’s line of products promise increased efficacy, absorption and bioavailability for superior results and efficiency per dose.
Treating epilepsy using CBD is not a new phenomenon. One of the best-known cases dates back to 2012 and concerns Charlotte Figi, a little girl who suffered up to 300 grand mal seizures per week that kept her confined to a wheelchair. The use of CBD oil to treat her condition reduced the number of seizures to 2-3 per month and sparked the medical marijuana movement that catalyzed the lifting of prohibitions on cannabis-based products throughout the United States (

“Patients and their families deserve better, so we implore policy makers, regulators and public health bodies to prioritize the health of these individuals and help them to access in the NHS medicines which are making a dramatic improvement to their lives,” said Rayyan Zafar, a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Brain Sciences at the Imperial College of London (

Quality is a primary concern among consumers of CBD, particularly as it enters the mainstream to include new users across a wide range of demographics. CNSC uses a quality-focused proprietary process where CBD molecules are combined with penetration-enhancing cyclodextrin in order to modify the surface of the molecule and render it water dispersible. Besides enhanced potency, Xceptol products were found via third-party testing to have a 400% increase in skin penetration along with a 300% increase in the rate of gut absorption when compared to regular oil-based CBD (

The company’s Xceptol products are also sold online through the Range Me product marketplace and multiple international sales channels that include Central America, South America, South Africa, the EU, the UK and the Philippines.
