The ABBA Nutrition Scientific Advisory Board
In order to assure our customers that ABBA Nutrition products maintain best in class positioning, the Company relies on a Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) that provides guidance to the Company on both continuous product/process improvement as well as giving both direction for and evaluation of new products.
The SAB consists of internationally recognized scientists that are leaders in the background, research and development of formulations that provide a basis for the Company’s range of targeted dietary supplements.
For ABBA Nutrition and its customers, the SAB provides an important link between our customers’ needs and the Company’s ability to maintain the highest level of efficacy in delivering on those needs.
This is part of ABBA Nutrition’s triple right promise… the Right Product for the Right Need at the Right Price.

Here are few examples of Q&A:
Richard L.: Is CBD on the WADA list?
B.Š. (ABBA Nutrition): Although cannabodiol (CBD) is permitted according to the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), all other cannabinoids are still prohibited in-competition. It’s important to realize that CBD products may still contain prohibited cannabinoid components, such as THC. (23. WADA, Oct. 2018)
Richard L.: Can Olympic athletes use CBD?
B.Š. (ABBA Nutrition): CBD may be a derivative of the cannabis plant, but are Olympic athletes allowed to use it without facing consequences? Thanks to a recent decision from the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), the answer is clearly YES! (9. WADA, Feb. 2020)
Miranda P.: “The skin on my hands is peeling despite hand cream treatments. I read that hemp extract can help with peeling. What product do you recommend”?
B.Š. (ABBA Nutrition): Industrial cannabis contains the CBD natural cannabinoid, which has been shown to be effective in some skin diseases such as atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. I recommend oil drops with CBD extract (5%, 13%). It is best to wash your hands with mild soap and water, wipe dry, then apply a thin layer of CBD oil solution to the peeling parts. Repeat two to three times a day.
Victor S.: “My rheumatologist diagnosed me with rheumatoid arthritis. Since I work as a storekeeper, I am constantly subjected to physical work and temperature changes which further worsens my medical condition. Would CBD ease my problems?”
B.Š. (ABBA Nutrition): CBD is a natural cannabinoid that also has an anti-inflammatory effect, so it is recommended for all chronic inflammatory conditions. It would very likely help you too. You can consume it in the form of oil drops. It should be noted, however, that CBD is manufactured as a drug by only one pharmaceutical company and even theirs is used only for treating epilepsy in children. You can take CBD oil solution as a product that falls into the category of novel foods, but the regulatory area is not yet regulated. In any case, scientific studies support the anti-inflammatory properties of CBD.
Aleksandra V.: I would like to try CBD drops to relieve ulcerative colitis problems. I am currently on biological drugs and I am wondering if CBD interacts with these drugs. Can I use both products? What dosage do you recommend me in my case?
B.Š. (ABBA Nutrition): CBD does not interact with biological drugs for ulcerative colitis, so you can easily take CBD. We recommend you to use 5% CBD drops from ABBA Nutrition. You can take 4-5 drops a day, either in the morning or in the evening, directly under the tongue. We recommend you to take these drops at least for 3 month.
Ellen W.: “I see you have a lot of vegan products. But I would like to know if it is appropriate to consume these products if you are breastfeeding?”
B.Š. (ABBA Nutrition): Data on the effects of CBD exposure to the infant through breastfeeding are limited and conflicting. Therefore, taking CBD while breastfeeding poses risks. Even though CBD is natural, we don’t yet know how CBD affects a developing baby and child, and what the long-term effects might be to a baby who has been exposed to CBD through breastmilk. To limit potential risk to the infant, breastfeeding mothers should be advised not to use products containing CBD, while breastfeeding.
