St. Petersburg, FL, March 18, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FutureWorld (OTCQB: FWDG), a U.S. Diversified
Holding Company formed to capitalize on the burgeoning technology
markets globally, announces today that it has created an advisory
board for a new planned division called HempTechRX. The new
division will concentrate on Cannabidiol (CBD) -based
Pharmaceutical & Nutraceutical products for the wellness and
nutritional supplement industry.
We believe the industrial hemp oil-based Cannabidiol (CBD)
nutritional supplement, wellness and personal care products will
become one of the biggest markets nationally. The global
Nutraceutical market is projected to be in excess of $200 billion
by 2015 and the current US Nutraceutical and Dietary supplement
market is valued at around $42 billion. The infusion of the
Cannabidiol (CBD) based products into this massive marketplace will
create significant opportunities for legal marijuana and hemp based
companies (and their shareholders) for the foreseeable future.
HempTech through HempTechRX is engaging to be part of this
significant opportunity.
Cannabinoids (non-psychoactive CBD) have been found to have
antioxidant properties, unrelated to NMDA receptor antagonism. This
new found property makes cannabinoids useful in the treatment and
prophylaxis of a wide variety of oxidation associated diseases,
such as ischemic, age-related, inflammatory and auto-immune
diseases. The cannabinoids are found to have particular application
as neuroprotectants, for example in limiting neurological damage
following ischemic insults, such as stroke and trauma, or in the
treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's,
Parkinson's and HIV dementia.
HempTechRX's formation of an advisory board will establish an
operational, industry standard, division for Pharmaceutical &
Nutraceutical grade products for the wellness and nutritional
markets. HempTechRX's management team, through its association with
PharmaX, will have extensive access to all the necessary
information and resources to provide a sustainable and profitable
pharmaceutical-grade division of HempTech.
