Counter-Point: HempMeds Addresses Cannabidiol (CBD)-Only Laws & Dispels Scarcity Myths
July 10 2014 - 9:00AM
HempMeds, the world's largest distributor of award-winning CBD-rich
hemp oil products, is headed to Vegas as a sponsor of the CHAMPS
trade show July 15-17 at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
Representatives from HempMeds will be at CHAMPS demoing and selling
CBD-rich hemp oil products to retailers who are registered
attendees of the business-to-business expo. HempMeds™ Director of
Public Relations, Andrew Hard, will be available to answer
questions about controversial state CBD-only laws and CBD-rich hemp
oil product availability dispelling a myth that there is a shortage
of the product in the US.
Including Nevada, 23 states and the District of Columbia have
medical marijuana laws on the books. Eleven other states have since
enacted cannabidiol (CBD)-only laws – but industry insiders want
consumers to take a closer look at problems that these CBD-only
laws create.
Formerly an investigative journalist, Hard is speaking out about
these new CBD-only laws and states, "While 'CBD-only' laws may make
medical marijuana easier to talk about and consider for use by
people of all ages, we caution the public to delve much deeper into
the topic. First, CBD is only one of at least 85 known
cannabinoids. 'CBD-only' laws prevent those who want access to the
other 84 cannabinoids – not THC or just CBD – or what we and many
others refer to as the 'whole plant.' 'CBD-only' laws are truly
unfair to those individuals. HempMeds™ fully supports 'access for
all.' For now, we are very proud to make our CBD-rich hemp oil
products available to all."
The CBD-rich hemp oil products that HempMeds™ distributes
nationwide include CBD-rich Real Scientific Hemp Oil™ (or RSHO™);
Cibdex™ brand vegan capsules or tincture drops in 500mg and 100mg
concentrations and choice of unflavored, peppermint or vanilla; and
Cibaderm™ shampoo, conditioner, body wash, body lotion, hand cream
and salve.
"As a matter of policy, we believe in everyone's right to have
access to medical marijuana," Hard continues. "However, in the case
of CBD-only laws, we are one of the few companies that meets all of
the specifications and requirements to offer a viable product that
is immediately available in all 50 states and more than 40 other
countries. HempMeds'™ parent company has taken seven years of due
diligence and millions of dollars in order to supply the world with
these innovative products within existing laws."
During the CHAMPS buyers' trade show held July 15-17 at the Las
Vegas Convention Center, HempMeds™ can be found at exhibit #500.
Nearly 400 exhibitors are slated to attend, according to the
organization's website. CHAMPS has been a staple
business-to-business buyer's expo in the "counter culture" industry
for fifteen years. Inventors bring the latest and most advanced
products to CHAMPS to unveil. Admission requirements can be found
at www.CHAMPStradeshows.com; ticketed attendees are invited to
visit the HempMeds™ booth and discuss the latest happenings in the
cannabis industry.
"With HempMeds™, quality starts with proprietary licensed seeds.
Generational farmers cultivate and harvest them into all-natural,
non-GMO industrial hemp," states Hard. "No pesticides are ever used
in the process that takes place in Europe; multiple agencies then
approve the hemp oil for export. Once in the US, the CBD-rich hemp
oil is re-tested to ensure quality and consistency, then is tested
once more during manufacturing and post-manufacturing. With every
order, consumers continually rely on HempMeds™ for quality and
consistency. From our farmers to our formulators and the entire
worldwide operation, everyone at HempMeds™ is extremely proud to be
a global supplier of multi-award-winning CBD-rich hemp oil
products. We will continue to do our part to educate consumers
about CBD-rich hemp oil availability and convey the message of
'access for all.'"
Hard is available for in-studio interviews with these innovative
CBD-rich hemp oil products. Members of the media who would like
media passes to attend CHAMPS to see products from HempMeds™ and

shelves, please contact Andrew Hard at Andrew.Hard@HempMeds.com or
