This is a big moment for me and the MGC Pharmaceuticals team. Needless to say, I have been waiting a long time to write the following sentence: MGC Pharmaceuticals has just released their first product to the market. I’m very excited to announce the release of CannEpil™, a product that has been years in the making. CannEpil™ is CBD-based medication that is used as a treatment for people with refractory epilepsy.

Heather Allen and Brandon Allen rescue severely abused and neglected dogs. After nearly 20 years of crippling pain and bizarre medical treatments, Heather can walk her three dogs in the sunshine and smile thanks to Real Scientific Hemp Oil, CBD oil by HempMeds. Brandon went to the same high school as Heather, and was there the night Heather fell from bleachers at an event and suffered a traumatic head injury that has affected her every day since.

For decades marijuana has had a negative connotation associated with it. But as legalization spreads throughout the nation and the world, the actual health benefits of marijuana are starting to surface. Marijuana isn’t just something to smoke and get high with anymore. It can actually be quite healthy for you. Raw marijuana, which is totally different than what you will find at your local dispensary produces THCA instead of THC.

The U.S. cannabis industry is still in its infancy, even though states began engaging with legalization in one form or another in the late 1990s. Today, many opportunities exist for individuals and businesses that want to engage in the industry. Some want to directly own licensed businesses, while others prefer to keep the industry at an arm’s length and merely profit from it.
