Medical Marijuana Inc. (OTC Pink: MJNA), a cannabis and hemp business development firm, recently received permission from Mexico’s health authority, COFEPRIS, to import its flagship Real Scientific Hemp Oil-X™ (RSHO-X™) to treat a cancer patient for pain associated with chemotherapy and their “general well-being” according to the prescription. The move comes a year after its subsidiary, HempMeds Mexico®, received the first-ever federal permit to import a cannabis product from the U.S. to Mexico.

“Mexico’s government and regulatory authorities are starting to recognize some of the potential benefits of cannabis/cannabinoid based therapeutics for the overall health and wellness of its people,” said Medical Marijuana Inc. CEO Dr. Stuart Titus. “We believe the potential restorative and rejuvenative benefits of CBD will soon be proven by medical science – but customers and their anecdotal evidence points toward these benefits [now].”

In this article, we will take a look at the company’s recent traction and why investors may want to consider the stock for diversified exposure to the cannabis industry.

RSHO-X™ Gains Traction

Medical Marijuana Inc. developed RSHO-X™ as a completely THC-free CBD hemp oil product that meets the rigid drug testing restrictions set forth by the World Anti-Doping Agency (“WADA”). As a result, the supplement has become a popular choice for parents of small children, first responders, competitive athletes, or anyone subject to a drug test, along with governments looking to avoid the violation of any drug laws.

In February 2016, Mexico’s COFEPRIS approved the import of RSHO-X™ on a case-by-case basis to treat serious medical conditions. The first patients to take advantage of the import capabilities included Emili Zoe – a young child suffering from West syndrome with up to 250 seizures per day. Her family imported RSHO-X™, which enabled her to dramatically reduce the frequency of seizures and improve quality of life.

The recent news of a 44-year-old breast cancer patient importing RSHO-X™ for the treatment of pain from chemotherapy represents the ongoing adoption of the product in Mexico. Perhaps more importantly, the news could represent the opening up of the market to a growing number of conditions apart from just seizure treatment. The company believes there could be a broad range of conditions that could be supported through CBD hemp oils and related products.

Diversified Exposure to Cannabis

Medical Marijuana Inc.’s core strength lies in its geographic and business line diversification, which reduces risk and increases potential long-term returns for investors. For example, the company has operations spanning pharmaceuticals to marketing, while selling to countries ranging from the United States to Mexico to Brazil. The company’s products are also already commercially-available as well given the THC-free nature of RSHO-X™.

Prior to this most recent development, CEO Dr. Stuart Titus discussed the company’s groundbreaking efforts in Latin Amerca in an exclusive interview:

The company’s portfolio of subsidiaries and partners include:

  • HempMeds – HempMeds offers mainstream marketing, sales, customer service, and logistics for the cannabis industry.
  • AXIM Biotech – AXIM Biotech is focused on the research and development of cannabinoid-based therapeutics with innovative delivery systems.

Investors looking for diversified exposure to the cannabis industry may want to take a closer look at the stock given the expansion and increased awareness in the marketplace.
