Medical Marijuana, Inc. Featured in La Razon Cover Story After Mexico’s Health Agency COFEPRIS Approves 20 Additional Import Permits for RSHO-X™
San Diego, CA – May 24, 2016 – Medical Marijuana, Inc. (OTC: MJNA) announced today that the Company garnered a May 23 cover story in Mexico newspaper La Razon, which came after Mexico’s federal health agency COFEPRIS approved 20 additional import permits for Real Scientific Hemp Oil-X™ (RSHO-X™) on Friday, May 20.
The “La Razon” article titled, “Mariguana Medicinal en México, negocio de 12 mil millones de dólares (Medical Marijuana in Mexico, a $12 billion business),” highlights the hemp cannabidiol (CBD) market potential in Mexico and Medical Marijuana Inc.’s role in helping the people of Mexico achieve access to CBD products for health and wellness. According to Dr. Stuart Titus, CEO of Medical Marijuana, Inc., in the next 10-20 years a single medical treatment based on CBD could replace 40 percent of the drugs currently on the market for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
“We are proud that our CBD product, without THC, is the first-ever cannabis product to be approved by the federal authorities in Mexico for import,” said Dr. Titus. “Our goal is to continue to educate the medical, scientific community and general population about the benefits of the plant and advocate for medical cannabis access in Mexico and across the world.”
