- Numbmonk, I think you may be onto something very significant with your post that has key thoughts which are worth reflecting on after viewing the 3 YT clips above. GW Pharmaceuticals' Epidiolex was the first CBD oil to receive FDA approval and DEA rescheduling. In the second YT clip, notice how the GW CEO says that if you apply the rigours of science and law to cannabis research, the FDA and DEA will act and respond to the needs of patients.

- The important point is the pharma grade aspect of producing the CBD oil which I think may have been important to the recent conditional approval of the application in Virginia for BLDV's client; this shows the potential demand for this approach. It will be interesting to see how Cann10's Cannareet enters the North American market. Notice how the licensing of Cannareet is regularly mentioned in previous BLDV PRs - one of which was related to the Virginia application, see highlights posts below:
