Medical Marijuana, Inc. Subsidiary HempMeds® Garners National News Coverage in Top Wellness Magazine SHAPE

SAN DIEGO, May 15, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Medical Marijuana, Inc. (OTC: MJNA), the first publicly traded cannabis company in the United States, today announced that its subsidiary HempMeds® has garnered national news coverage in SHAPE Magazine.

A May 10, 2018, article on the SHAPE Magazine website entitled "The Best Health and Wellness CBD Products" showcases HempMeds® Active Relief Roll-On and talks about how it soothes tired, overworked muscles with a mixture of cannabidiol (CBD), natural herbal extracts and menthol. The leading wellness website, which boasts an audience of over 5 million global monthly views, is targeted predominately at millennial fitness and health conscious consumers and is a leading resource for those who want to learn more about living longer, more fulfilling lives.

HempMeds® was the first company to ever bring hemp-based CBD oil products to market in the U.S. in 2012 -- and the first to both make CBD products available in bulk for U.S. consumers and also provide high-quality CBD oil to customers around the world. HempMeds® was also the first-ever company to receive historic federal government import permits for its CBD products in the nations of Brazil, Mexico and Paraguay.

"We're honored that this publication recommends HempMeds' newest product, the Active Relief Roll-On, to its readers," said Medical Marijuana, Inc. CEO Dr. Stuart Titus. "We hope that this article will help consumers understand the many benefits of CBD and the high quality of our products."
