The growing awareness of cannabidiol or CBD's health benefits has pushed the market into mainstream retail. CBD is known for its multi-faceted uses such as its ability to alleviate minor conditions like headaches. However, CBD can also be used to treat serious symptoms associated with medical conditions such as cancer, epilepsy, and multiple sclerosis. Moreover, researchers have mentioned that CBD helps with quitting smoking and also mitigates the withdrawal symptoms. Many see legalizing CBD as yet another step to potentially fully legalizing cannabis. According to data compiled by Technavio, the global CBD market is expected to accelerate at a CAGR of 31% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2022.

About Smart Decision Inc.

Smart Decision Inc. has researched and is developing algorithms for the consumer and business LED Lighting and CBD markets. With their patent-pending "Smart Decision" algorithms, the confusion of selecting the right product(s), whether for LED or CBD, will be significantly reduced. Ultimately, Smart Decision Inc. believes that selecting the right product the first time, dramatically cuts down on product returns and creates of positive purchasing experience for the consumer.

Who can benefit from our Recommendation Algorithm?

    --  Consumers - Obviously, the whole basis of our CBD Recommendation
        Algorithm, is to help consumers select the right CBD product(s) for
        their needs. Currently, as mentioned earlier, the CBD market is in its
        "wild-west" phase. Millions of consumers have heard about CBD. Millions
        of consumers would like to take CBD for their various ailments. However,
        so many consumers are holding back due to lack of knowledge and lack of
        what to buy. We believe that 99% of the population needs a pat on the
        shoulder (advice) when it comes to buying a new type of product.
        Frankly, most consumers need a push, regardless of what type of product
        they're buying. The CBD recommendation algorithm will help provide
        consumers that added re-assurance they need to take the next step in
        purchasing CBD for their needs.
    --  CBD Manufacturers - Most CBD manufacturers are selling direct to the
        consumer. Having a CBD Recommendation Algorithm Plugin on their sites,
        will help consumers stay on their sites and make a buying decision
        before navigating away to another confusing site.
    --  Medical Practices - Medical practices (especially orthopedic practices)
        are starting to carry and sell CBD products from their offices. While
        consumers might feel better purchasing CBD from a "medical practice" for
        obvious reasons, it doesn't change the fact that doctor's do not have
        the familiarity to recommend the right CBD product/dosages for their
        patients.
    --  Online Aggregator - Soon, there will be website(s) that act as a "Price
        Grabber" for the CBD industry. The group that we have spoken to will
        launch a site that will offer CBD products from approximately 50 CBD
        companies. The ability for the average consumer to visit their site and
        answer a handful of questions (CBD Recommendation Algorithm) to dial-in
        to a specific product or products that specifically suit the consumer's
        need is a big deal to them!
    --  Retailers that are selling and starting to sell CBD products
        (Walgreen's, Kroger's and mom & pop retailers & headshops throughout the
        country.) Besides using our online plug-in that would specifically
        represent their inventory/product offerings, they could also use the
        Plug-in with an in-store kiosk/tablet display where consumers could use
        our algorithm to make buying decisions on the spot.
    --  Dispensaries - Recreational & Medical

8 Medical Conditions that CBD can help treat:

    --  Pain - CBD can help lower inflammation levels and pain perception. A
        study published in 2017 in Cannabis and Cannabinoid Research, suggests
        that CBD might be useful as a pain therapy in place of opioids.
    --  Anxiety & Depression - CBD can help with PTSD, generalized anxiety
        disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and seasonal affective
        disorder.
    --  Epilepsy - CBD can help reduce the number of seizures. (In fact, this is
        the one condition that the FDA has approved an oral CBD formulation for
        LGS (Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome) & Dravet Syndrome.
    --  Symptoms related to cancer treatment - The focus on CBD for cancer
        treatment has been for its use in reducing nausea and vomiting that
        often accompanies chemotherapy and radiation treatments. Researchers at
        the American Cancer Society have also discovered that CBD may slow the
        growth of cancer cells.
    --  Acne and other skin issues - Researchers believe that topical CBD can be
        a potent antiacne agent, likely due to its anti- inflammatory
        properties. Studies have also found that CBD can be useful for reducing
        the itch and inflammation associated with eczema and psoriasis.
    --  High Blood Pressure - Researchers in England have found that even a
        single dose of CBD can reduce resting blood pressure, which may
        ultimately reduce the risk of stroke. They concluded that the response
        may be due to CBD's anxiety- reducing (anxiolytic) and pain-reducing
        (analgesic) effects.
    --  Addiction - CBD has shown a lot of promise in fighting addiction to
        everything from opioids and cocaine to alcohol and tobacco.
    --  Diabetes - The American Journal of Pathology has suggested that CBD has
        lowered fasting insulin levels and measures of insulin resistance.
