Health Canada Issues Natural Product Number Licenses to Mind Cure
VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 23, 2020 /CNW/ – Mind Cure Health Inc. (CSE: MCUR) (“Mind Cure” or the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce that on September 17, 2020 it received the final authorizations from Health Canada to sell its Moonbeam functional mushroom products in Canada. Health Canada has issued Natural Product Numbers (NPN) to these products, which means that they were assessed by Health Canada and found to be “safe, effective and of high quality under their recommended conditions of use.” (source: https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/drugs-health-products/natural-non-prescription/applications-submissions/product-licensing/licensed-natural-health-products-database.html).
Mind Cure is a mental health and wellness company with a mission to identify, develop and commercialize products that ease suffering, increase productivity, and enhance mental health. Mind Cure was formed as a response to a world suffering from a mental health crisis and in urgent need of effective treatments. Mind Cure’s goal is to identify products which have unique characteristics and histories that make them ideal candidates for providing solutions for numerous mental health indications, with the potential to address conditions with significant unmet medical needs.
These authorizations are important for Mind Cure, as many supplement and nutrition companies still avoid or ignore the arduous task of receiving Health Canada compliance. Today’s discerning consumer demands transparency, especially in an industry growing as fast as functional mushrooms are.
Philip Tapley, Chairman, President, and CEO stated, “We are excited to announce that we have received authorization from Health Canada for all products in our Moonbeam Mushrooms line. We are focused on improving mental health and our Moonbeam Mushroom brand are a way for us to bring products to market right now that have numerous health indications.” Tapley continued, “We are also committed to working closely with Health Canada and our GMP-compliant manufacturing partners to ensure that all of our products are deemed safe, effective and high quality for consumers.”
The first products identified by Mind Cure that had indications of providing cognitive and mental health benefits are functional mushrooms. The Moonbeam Mushrooms product line will be initially composed of three offerings in both powder and capsule form:
- Moonbeam Mushrooms – Lion’s Mane: NPN80104264 (Capsule), NPN80104263 (Powder)
- Moonbeam Mushrooms – Reishi: NPN80104175 (Capsule), NPN80104177 (Powder)
- Moonbeam Mushrooms – Turkey Tail: NPN80104264 (Capsule), NPN 80104263 (Powder)
Moonbeam Mushrooms are now designated as a Natural Health Product (NHP) by Health Canada, and each product is non-GMO and vegan, organic and free of soy, gluten with no added fillers.
Mind Cure intends to further its investigation into new potential product candidates and treatments which are effective in treating mental health. These new product candidates range from nootropics, psychoactive products, and psychedelic substances.
The Company also announces that it has granted an aggregate of 180,000 stock options under its incentive stock option plan (the “Plan”) to independent consultants. The stock options are exercisable at a price of $0.33 and subject to the terms of the Plan.
