It appears that since antiquity, the Chinese have been aware of the therapeutic effect of cannabinoids. References in a manuscript with the authoritative title ‘Additional Records of Famous Physicians’, dating from the sixth century AD, point to their use as analgesics for “relieving impediment,” essentially the relief of pain. In a country with such a rich tradition of herbal remedies, cannabinoids have played an important role. Now, generations later, ChineseInvestors.com, Inc. (OTCQB: CIIX) continues the tradition of ‘Famous Physicians’ by expanding access to the medicinal benefits of cannabidiol (CBD), a non-psychotropic cannabinoid derived from hemp. The company operates the first online Chinese language CBD health product store. Now, two billion Chinese can order their medicine online and have it delivered to their homes.
The CBD CIIX plans to offer its customers will be extracted from hemp, which means the products will be entirely legal. Hemp, of course, is a variety of the cannabis sativa plant, but, unlike its sister strain marijuana, it has hardly any THC, the psychoactive substance that gives users a ‘high’. Cognizant of this distinction, the Chinese prohibit any involvement in marijuana and enforce that prohibition with harsh penalties, all while allowing the cultivation and production of hemp. In the U.S., however, generally all cannabis cultivation, production and use is illegal under federal law.
