“We are very excited to launch this line of products with Medical Cannabis by Shoppers.

Radient plans on expanding the products available under the bioU brand over the coming months. The bioU brand will use Radient’s proprietary broad spectrum cannabinoid extracts along with an extensive library of internally developed formulations. Radient’s unique, continuous-flow extraction process has been proven to achieve a higher recovery of active compounds from the cannabis plant (up to 99%) than other extraction methods. It has lower risk of cannabinoid degradation during processing which allows products to maintain shelf life for a longer period of time, and has a high level of product consistency. Combining its unique extraction technology with stringent quality control systems and decades of botanical ingredient manufacturing experience, Radient produces a variety of broad spectrum cannabinoid formulations, ingredients and products that meet the highest standards of quality and safety.
