SAN DIEGO, Aug. 20, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — From the US to Turkey, the world is “buzzing” with the news that the National Institutes of Health, a U.S. Government Agency division of the Department of Health and Human Services, has approved KannaLife’s drug discovery plan for using cannabis as the source for a new drug that will treat a concussion syndrome called Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy or “CTE.”
Medical Marijuana, Inc. (OTC Pink: MJNA) is proud to announce that one of its investment portfolio companies, KannaLife Sciences, Inc. (“KannaLife”), is the subject of this tremendous amount of mainstream news coverage. MJNA directly owns 16.70% of KannaLife’s capital stock.
