Titus, PhD and Chief Executive Officer of Medical Marijuana, Inc. “Our presentation will address the unique anti-aging properties of the hemp cannabis, research that supports cannabinoids as anti-oxidants and neuroprotectants, and why hemp is widely regarded as a ‘whole food’ and ‘superfood’ throughout the world.”
