With the launch of GNUPharma®, a research pioneer in the health and wellness market, the benefits to vaping now reach far beyond smoking cessation. ## Vaping technology GNUPharma, a subsidiary of Palm Beach Vapors, the nation’s first vaping franchise, is proud to offer the industry’s first nutraceutical and medical vaping options. The adaptations are made possible through GNUPharma’s GnuVape® system, the proprietary liquid delivery method that offers consumers a safer way to vape a wide variety of enjoyable flavors backed by research and testing. “GNUPharma promises to push the vaping industry in a radical new direction. When we developed GnuVape, we were focused on making a safer e-cigarette that removed the potentially harmful propylene glycol base and utilized a fully organic liquid delivery system. That technology revolutionized the industry. But, we knew the technology we developed had the potential to do so much more. So, for the last year, we’ve focused our research on adapting GnuVape to deliver critical medications, vitamins and nutrients to the body in faster, more effective way,” said GNUPharma and Palm Beach Vapors Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer Chip Paul. Unveiled during the American Cancer Society’s 2015 Great American Smokeout, GNUPharma is designed to support a wide variety of medical, nutraceutical and probiotic uses. Through the GnuVape platform, oil-based and water-based medications, vitamins, and nutrients are safely turned into vapor, allowing nearly instantaneous delivery, without the time needed to digest medications or supplements taken orally. GNUPharma intends to register GnuVape as a medical device with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. All medical grade liquids used in the GnuVape system are built on a base platform of vegetable glycerin (VG), a common ingredient used in a wide variety of foods and medicines. The proprietary blend is used as a replacement for propylene glycol (PG), the base ingredient in traditional vaping systems. Propylene glycol has been criticized as potentially harmful to humans in large quantities, and remains at the heart of many debates over the safety of e-cigarettes. “GnuVape made e-cigarettes safer by eliminating the potentially harmful components in traditional vaping systems. Now, GNUPharma is taking those benefits to the next level by giving patients a delivery option that targets delivery of a wide variety of essential oils and medications in a much more advanced way,” Paul said. ## Market applications GNUPharma will service four separate markets through the GnuVape system: electronic cigarettes, cannabis, nutraceutical and medical. Each application is designed to work with most existing e-cigarette hardware, allows full control over concentration of product consumed during each vape, and operates on both an ‘oil phase’ and a ‘water phase,’ allowing a wide variety of product combinations. All GNUPharma products are also fully customizable, with the ability to hold a single type of oil or a variety of oils. Through GnuVape, users also have the option to control the level of nicotine they consume, or to fully remove it. “The vaping industry has faced growing criticism for relying on old technology that could be harmful to users,” said Paul. “GNUPharma has finally opened the door to a long overdue, healthier path. The safe, fully customizable vaping options we’ve developed through the GnuVape system set a new standard, and open the door to even more exciting advancements to come.” GNUPharma, a subsidiary of Palm Beach Vapors, offers the industry's first nutraceutical and medical vaping options. ## Entities - 1851 Franchise (publication) - Beauty & Wellness (sector) - American Cancer Society (company) - U.S. Food and Drug Administration (regulator) - nutraceuticals (topic) - vaping technology (topic) - health market (topic) - medical vaping (topic) --- Originally reported by 1851 Franchise (https://1851franchise.com/nolimitagency/palm-beach-vapors-enters-health-market-with-gnupharma-2917).
