SAN DIEGO, Oct. 8, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Medical Marijuana, Inc. (OTC Pink:MJNA) is pleased to inform shareholders and the general public that HempMedsPX – a corporate portfolio company of Medical Marijuana Inc. and the exclusive master distributor and contracted marketing company for CannaVest Corp. and Medical Marijuana, Inc. – is increasing awareness of cannabidiol (CBD) rich hemp oil products.
HempMedsPX™ is proud to announce that Cheryl Shuman recently demonstrated a vape pen filled with HempMedsPX CBD hemp oil on the Fox News Geraldo at Large program. "Respected medical experts including Dr. Sanjay Gupta agree that vaporizing is a healthier intake method than smoking," says Cheryl Shuman. Shuman continues, "The medical cannabis vaporizer market is expected to be $100 million this year in retail sales and more than $1 billion dollars for the electronic cigarette market."
"Over the last 60 days we have received tremendous positive feedback at industry trade shows such from the Seattle High Times Cannabis Cup to the Boston Hempfest. Vaporizer pens are currently one of the fastest growing trends in our industry," says Charles Vest, VP of Communications for HempMedsPX™. Vest continues, "Bringing a healthy aspect of including CBD in a vaporizing pen, rather than nicotine, sets us apart from the mainstream electronic cigarette market. This will provide visibility throughout non-dispensary outlets. We are honored that there is a rapidly growing global interest with our CBD and associated products and we look forward to featuring these products through mainstream news broadcasts and other media outlets."
HempMedsPX™ has launched a multi-phased approach to increasing awareness of cannabidiol (CBD) rich hemp oil products including the newly launched Cibdex™ and Cibaderm™ lines.
