WCI Health LLC, an alternative health and wellness company created to address the misconceptions and lies surrounding medicinal herbs like psilocybin (magic mushrooms), cannabis, and other entheogens announce its partnership with Cannabis Radio for the live coverage of ALL its events including Booth vending. Cannabis Radio will also produce its podcast “Let’s Talk Plant Medicine: Cannabis, Psychedelic & Pharmaceutics.”

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, mental illness has become a big problem in the United States and growing globally. Over 300 million people suffer from depression before the COVID-19 pandemic. One-third of depression sufferers are resistant to current conventional therapy. 6-9% of the population suffers from PTSD. At least 35 million people suffer from substance abuse issues. Millions of legal cannabis patients and other plant medicine users are unable to quickly get medicine due to the inability of businesses to advertise on mainstream media and social platforms resulting from the constant blocking & banning of ads by these organizations, including Facebook, Instagram & Google. Cannabis-based businesses are frustrated by unreasonable censorship resulting in an inability to make a profit & keep business afloat. 

Over 1.2 billion people are suffering from various ailments treatable with plant medicine like Magic Mushroom (psilocybin) and Cannabis. A recent Phase 3 trial by MAPS shows that patients experienced remission from depression for up to a year after a dose of plant-based medicine (psilocybin). Data from many institutions of higher learning are giving hope to many patients. Without education, awareness, and reputable plant-based businesses to supply the quality medicines that people need, the general acceptance of these alternative treatments might as well be a “dream,” considering how long misinformation has been spreading about the use of psychedelics and cannabis as medicine.

WCI Health & WCI Health University’s objective is to use our podcasts and events as educational tools where people can learn more about the alternative health and wellness options available to them. WCI Health also encourages cannabis and other plant medicine-related businesses to advertise and sponsor our events freely without fear of being shut down or unreasonable censorship characteristic of mainstream media and social platforms. Our podcast series highlights the advantages of using Functional Mushrooms, Adaptogens, CBD, cannabinoid products, and other medicinal herbs for your health and well-being. 

WCI helps CBD manufacturers seeking to increase distribution or payment processors targeting Merchants or cannabis users (B2C). WCI educates policymakers who must keep current on essential information relevant to all the major stakeholders, dispensaries, coaches, healthcare professionals, or Colleges & Universities. The WCI Health podcast and events are your one-stop shop for Evidence-based education, Advertisement, and Sponsorship.

The Physicians Cannabinoid Council, an organization with over 35 renown healthcare professionals as active members, announce their support of a first-of-its-kind cannabinoid research study led by researchers at the University of Michigan and MoreBetter (Releaf App). The study will lay the groundwork for understanding what formulations and dosing regimens could be most efficacious for Fibromyalgia, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and Osteoarthritis.

The biggest challenge for healthcare professionals with cannabinoid-based medicine is the lack of evidence in product formulation and dosing. Most published studies only evaluate if cannabis or CBD is effective. This leaves practitioners and patients left to guess and begin a trial-and-error process to find what formulation and dosing work best. In addition to advancing the general knowledge of cannabinoids as a medicine, the results from this study will better educate and equip practitioners and patients.

“We are excited to collaborate with MoreBetter and the University of Michigan. When it comes to the topic of “CBD”, our patients are already taking these products and are “waiting at the finish line” for researchers and medical professionals to catch up with much-needed clinical trials. This study moves the needle forward to provide important data for physicians and patients alike”, says Dr. Dung Trinh, founder of the Physicians CBD Council (PCC).

“The Physicians Cannabinoid Council (PCC) welcomes the opportunity to extend our collaboration with MoreBetter and the University of Michigan for this crucial study. Without valuable research and data on the therapeutic benefits of cannabis-derived products, both doctors and patients navigate with uncertainty”, says Helene Blanchette, President of the PCC. “This is well aligned with our focus on consumer safety, education and cannabis research collaboration; hence we are pleased to participate in the recruiting effort to push this needed study forward.”

Study products have been quality-verified & tested by the PCC, which removes worries for participants. All study products are in the form of tablets and capsules. The study sponsors, LEVEL and Overcome, are providing eligible participants with hundreds of dollars in savings on a 12-week supply of study product. Participants can participate in this study from the comfort and safety of their home by using their smartphone.

Those who complete the study may receive up to $500 in Amazon Gift Cards. Individuals interested in enrolling can do so at releaf.at/umpain.

“Pain is one of the most common conditions people use medical cannabis to treat, and the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine has concluded that cannabis is effective in pain relief,” says Daniel Kruger, PhD, the study’s Principal Investigator. “This conclusion is just the beginning; we need more research to know how to optimize pain relief with cannabis. This cross-sector partnership is critical for overcoming regulatory barriers to cannabis research and enhancing trust by including independent academic researchers.”

“To become a reliable form of medicine the cannabis industry needs to move beyond strain names and labeling products as indicas, hybrids, and sativas,” says Tyler Dautrich, COO of MoreBetter Ltd., the company behind Releaf App. “Efficacy data focused on product formulations and dosing will allow practitioners and patients to make more informed decisions on where to begin treatment. Laying the groundwork for this to become a reality is one of the many reasons this is an important study.”

“Cannabinoids have a myriad of therapeutic properties, and we’re just starting to define their positive impact on human health,” said LEVEL Founder and CEO Chris Emerson, PhD. “At LEVEL, we’re dedicated to conducting research, pushing the scientific boundaries, and driving consumer education about cannabinoids, which facilitates our unique approach to developing innovative cannabis products. Leveraging real-world clinical evidence on the potential health benefits of cannabis will shape the future of the industry, and LEVEL is excited to participate in this important work.”

We have received great anecdotal reviews as to our Active Relief formulation to date but having a formal study on the product compared to other product formulas is essential for furthering the future of cannabinoid medicine, not just for Overcome but the industry at large,” explained Annie Rouse, Founder of Overcome. “Given our formulary research, we are confident that our product will help the patients in the study overcome pain and inflammation and we look forward to the feedback provided.”

CannabisRadio.com, the premier legal cannabis and psychedelics podcast network, proudly sponsored the 5th Annual Cannabis Opportunites Conference in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on September 23-24, 2022. There was an abundance of positive takeaways from the event. Hundreds of people had their lives changed regarding cannabis by gaining employment, obtaining a medical marijuana card, expunging their records, or simply gaining knowledge from local, state, and federal politicians.

As a forerunner in the emerging legal cannabis space, the actions and direction of Pennsylvania are something the rest of the country should pay attention to as they continue to pave the way for a cannabis-friendly society. 50 individuals got their lives back by way of criminal record expungement at the conference, as well as 51 individuals attaining a medical marijuana card. The career fair also helped land 112 new jobs for people in search of cannabis careers.

“CannabisRadio.com is committed to providing access to up-to-date information and education at the local, state, and federal levels. We are proud to have partnered with the Cannabis Opportunities Conference, and that we are in a position to share the wonderful stories and continued nationwide effort to ensure cannabis equity for diverse communities,” stated Brandy Shapiro-Babin, President, CannabisRadio.com.

On Friday September 23rd and Saturday, September 24th Senator Street hosted the 5th Annual Cannabis Opportunities Conference with the Diasporic Alliance of Cannabis Opportunities during Black Cannabis Week.

“I’m proud to join DACO in convening the 5th Annual Cannabis Opportunities Conference in Philadelphia. Cannabis prohibition will end. It is an issue whose time has come,” said Senator Street “It is the government’s responsibility to ensure that Pennsylvania’s expanding cannabis marketplace and economy are diverse and inclusive. As such we must be intentional about black and brown participation in every facet of the cannabis economy and industry.”

Key sponsors for this event included Black Cannabis Week, Ethos, Minorities for Medical Marijuana, Philadelphia Cannabis Business Association, Pot Profits for Pennsylvanians Project, All Together Now Pennsylvania and CannabisRadio.com, whose broadcast of the policy panels can be found here. Cherron Perry Thomas, founder of Diasporic Alliance of Cannabis Opportunities shared that “Part of the success to this newer cannabis industry is the intentional inclusion of Black and Brown communities. So far, we’ve been an after, many of us are demanding that policy extends beyond the harm that has been done with promotion and the war on drugs. First educating our communities about the opportunities and potential of repairing our communities, is a way to move past the stigma on the real work.”

The two-day conference included policy panels on day one where participants heard from legislators on state and federal Adult Use policy including Lieutenant Governor Fetterman on PA’s Expedited Pardon Program for cannabis convictions. US Senator Cory Booker participated virtually and called it a historic opportunity to right historical wrongs, calling his federal efforts to end cannabis prohibition – with a focus on restorative justice – “a legalization movement that must be about justice, opportunity and accountability.”

Day two included a variety of programming and keynote speakers which included: medical marijuana registration (30), a career fair, Caregiver Education, criminal record expungement (60 individuals), professional work-ready services and workshops on accessing the cannabis industry.

A full stream of the event can be found on Facebook, @SenSharifStreet.

Native Roots has officially launched its Gold, Onyx and Green cannabis labels, comprising 25 strains and now available at the leading independent dispensary chain’s 20 locations across Colorado. Each strain is hand-picked and thoughtfully cultivated using strain-specific growing methods to maximize potency, flavor, and quality. All strains undergo Native Roots’ proprietary curing process that eliminates rapid terpene evaporation and discoloration, maximizing cannabinoid content.

Gold and Onyx label strains are hung dry and hand-trimmed to preserve trichomes where high concentrations of psychoactive compounds reside, maintaining the natural beauty and potency of the flower. After the curing process, Gold and Onyx strains are hand packed to preserve trichomes.

The Gold Label strains are packaged in glass drams that block UV rays and are non-porous, smell-proof and airtight, preserving the bud. All Gold Label strains are grown from seed and offer a minimum of 24% THC potency. Hand-selected by the cultivation staff, all phenotypes are exclusive to Native Roots.

“Our cultivation team is constantly researching, growing and testing new potential strains. The result is the debut of these new flower options that incorporate a thoughtful revamp to the post-harvest process,” said Jason MacDonald, director of cultivation operations at Native Roots Cannabis Co. “All strains grown at Native Roots facilities are grown with the same high standards, and each is tested extensively before becoming eligible for the Gold or Onyx labels.”

Accompanying the launch, budtenders will lead customers through a flower selection using the Mood State Matrix, a guide created from scientific engineer-led research at Native Roots. Rather than simply classifying a strain as Sativa, Indica, or Hybrid, customers can pick a product based on effects such as sleep, relax, focus, energize and uplift. The Mood State Matrix was designed after a comprehensive digital analysis on cannabis effects descriptions, extensive group testing on each strain, and mathematical modeling around results to ensure consistency and accuracy with the final five descriptors. The Mood State Matrix is a suggested guide and effects cannot be guaranteed.

Gold Label is offered in ⅛ oz. glass jars at $45 each; ¼ oz. for $85; ½ oz. for $150; 1 oz. for $280. Onyx Label is offered in ⅛ oz. drams at $30. Green Label is packaged in ½ oz. bags at $60 for recreational customers, $55 for medical customers, and two ½ oz. bags at $85 for recreational customers, $80 for medical customers.

Product images are available. For more information or to schedule an interview, contact Shawna Seldon McGregor at 917-971-7852 or shawna@themaverickpr.com.

Magnitude from PharmaCann is launching in Illinois and is planned to be available in the coming months in five additional states including Ohio, Massachusetts, Maryland, New York, and Pennsylvania.

“As we expand our top selling Magnitude vape into new states, we are delivering to our patients and customers a consistent, trusted product at a competitive price,” said Erika Salgado, Chief Marketing Officer of Verilife. “Magnitude’s high-quality THC extract is selected to complement each strain’s complex flavor profile, enhanced with all-natural terpenes, and offers a consistent and impactful vaping experience.”

Through rigorous extraction testing, the Magnitude taste profile features natural terpenes combined with THC distillate and premier ingredients. Unlike many cartridges in the market today, Magnitudes’s low inlet-hole technology is designed to ensure that every drop of its distillate reaches the user, and none is left in the cartridge’s reservoir.

Two popular offerings will be available in the six new markets:

• Blueberry Indica Dominant: With a terpene profile including Myrcene, Beta-Caryophyllene, Beta-Pinene, the aroma and flavor of Blueberry (born from the strain Blueberry Cookies) is like a dense pine forest that is combined with the intoxicatingly rich aroma of blueberries and other stone fruits.

• Platinum Jack Sativa Dominant: With a terpene profile including Terpinolene, Beta-Caryophyllene and Beta-Myrcene, Platinum Jack (born from the loved strain Jack Herrer) is thought to be a Sativa Dominant Hybrid that descends from the haze family of strains. A sticky strain with an appealing orange-lemon scent and taste, with hints of pine and earthy notes.

Benefits of the Magnitude vape include:

• High-quality THC extract enhanced with all-natural terpenes selected to complement each strain’s complex flavor profile and effects for an impactful vaping experience.

• Big flavor, big hits, and bigger highs. Magnitude vape cartridges contain a unique blend of small batch strain-specific THC distillate.

• High-tech hardware that delivers a flavorful and unrivaled vapor product.

Magnitude is available at all eight Illinois Verilife locations: Arlington Heights, Chicago (River North), Galena, North Aurora, Ottawa, Romeoville, Rosemont, and Schaumburg. Verilife is operated by PharmaCann Inc., the nation’s largest privately held, vertically integrated cannabis company.

Deep Roots Harvest, Nevada’s fastest-growing cannabis company, announced today it has nearly completed work on an upgrade and expansion of its cultivation facilities, including adding an outdoor grow in Wendover and modernizing the indoor cultivation operations in Mesquite. The $4 million investment will nearly double Deep Roots Harvest’s overall cannabis yields while optimizing energy efficiency and positioning the company for long-term cultivation expansion as demand requires.

“In addition to these enhancements, we are updating all of our department standard operating procedures to take advantage of the new equipment and current industry best practices,” said Chris O’Ferrell, Senior Director of Cultivation at Deep Roots Harvest. “We already had one of the industry’s best cultivation facilities in the state, but with the completion of these investments, Deep Roots Harvest will take our efforts to the next level in terms of efficiency, sustainability and output.”

Infrastructure improvements to Deep Roots Harvest’s Mesquite cultivation headquarters include adding airflow improvements, installing lighting upgrades, deploying crop steering strategies, and implementing integrated pest management strategies. The new outdoor grow operation planned in Wendover will begin on a small scale but will provide expansion opportunities as needs arise, according to O’Ferrell.

“Our cultivation team has been working tirelessly to implement these infrastructure improvements and we are thrilled to bring these enhancements to bear on our operations,” said Jon Marshall, COO of Deep Roots Harvest. “The cannabis industry’s impact on the environment and energy consumption become more critical as the industry expands and grows. We have invested in these improvements in order to maintain Deep Roots Harvest’s commitment to the Nevada community.”

Creating a successful cultivation facility is a complex combination of facility and plant-focused systems design, environmental considerations, energy use, water use, security, and other factors. As the industry grows, a new breed of professional cannabis operators is emerging. To achieve product quality and consistency, cultivators are turning to modern agricultural tools and technology. Commercial producers must meet the high standards of savvy consumers and regulators. The $4 million cultivation investment reflects this new reality of the industry, according to Marshall. With six dispensaries open in Nevada, a 7th on the way, as well as cultivation, extraction lab, and manufacturing facilities in Mesquite, Deep Roots Harvest employs more than 250 people across the state, with additional jobs to be added as new dispensaries and facilities are opened.

Today, researchers at the University of Michigan, MoreBetter (Releaf App), LEVEL, and Overcome announced they are recruiting California residents to participate in a 12-week study focusing on the efficacy of different cannabinoid capsules and tablets for managing chronic pain related to Fibromyalgia, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteoarthritis and overall quality of life.

This study aims to address the significant gaps in cannabinoid research related to efficacy for specific types of chronic pain, different product formulations, and dosing. Normalizing the product type to tablets and capsules, this is one of the first studies to look at efficacy trends related to dosing combined with unique product formulations.

There are upwards of 40 million individuals living with these conditions and even more battling chronic pain. This study is a step in the direction of helping patients and practitioners have a better understanding of how to use cannabinoid medicine as a natural and effective therapy.

Eligible study participants living in California can participate in this study from the comfort and safety of their home by using their smartphone to questionnaires. The study’s delivery partner, FLOWER CO (a licensed California delivery answer standardized pain and quality of life company), will deliver study products to participants.

Enrolled participants will receive a 12-week supply of study product from LEVEL and Overcome. Participants who complete the study may receive up to $500 in Amazon Gift Cards. Individuals
interested in enrolling can do so at releaf.at/umpain.

“Pain is one of the most common conditions people use medical cannabis to treat, and the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine has concluded that cannabis is effective in pain relief,” says Daniel Kruger, PhD, the study’s Principal Investigator. “This conclusion is just the beginning, we need more research to know how to optimize pain relief with cannabis. This cross-sector partnership is critical for overcoming regulatory barriers to cannabis research and enhancing trust by including independent academic researchers.”

“Data shows cannabinoids are effective at helping individuals manage or reduce chronic pain, however, there is little data on what specific formulation, administration form, and dose is most efficacious,” says Tyler Dautrich, COO of MoreBetter Ltd., the company behind Releaf App.
“This study is important because by normalizing the administration form we can more accurately
monitor dosing regimens leading to better insights on condition-specific efficacy as it relates to
product formulation.”

“Cannabinoids have a myriad of therapeutic properties, and we’re just starting to define their positive impact on human health,” said LEVEL Founder and CEO Chris Emerson, PhD. “At LEVEL, we’re dedicated to conducting research, pushing the scientific boundaries, and driving consumer education about cannabinoids, which facilitates our unique approach to developing innovative cannabis products.

explained Annie Rouse, Founder of Overcome. “Given our formulary research, we are confident
that our product will help the patients in the study overcome pain and inflammation and we look
forward to the feedback provided.”

“FLOWER CO. has always been a natural fit for the medical user trying to afford their medicine, so we’re excited to give back to the community by enabling this study so that science can catch up to how impactful cannabis can be,” said Ted Lichtenberger, CEO of FLOWER CO.
