Medical Marijuana Inc. reported this week that studies have shown Cannabidiol, a drug the company is developing, may be useful as a possible prevention and treatment for Alzheimer’s disease. Medical Marijuana Inc. through CannaBANK has a patent pending on an extraction method from Cannabis Sativa (Marijuana) and its industrialized non psychoactive counterpart Hemp, allowing Cannabidiol (CBD) to be isolated in its pure form.
This week’s announcement follows on the heals of last week’s, when the company announced that the same drug had been “proven” to be an anti-cancer and anti-tumor agent.
The company, like so many others today, is racing to isolate various medicinal properties of marijuana from the THC that gets recreational users high.
The small–but fast growing–publicly traded San Diego company announced earlier this year that first quarter revenues were up 900 percent from the same quarter last year
