NEWARK, N.J., July 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Inergetics, Inc.
(OTCBB: NRTI), a leading developer of nutritional supplements,
today announced the successful completion of its first phase
towards the formulation of its proprietary line of natural
cannabidiol CBD-based nutritional supplements it is developing in
partnership with Terra Tech Corp (OCTBB: TRTC). Research shows that
cannabinoids have medical application for a range of conditions as
varied as epilepsy, glaucoma, osteoporosis, anorexia, Alzheimer's
disease and pain treatment.
Following the recent success of the CBD Medical Advisory Board
meeting led by Inergetics' Chief Science Officer, Carl Germano, RD, CNS, CDN, Inergetics has
successfully procured targeted cannabinoids from industrial hemp,
cannabis and other unique dietary sources.
"This is a critical milestone for us in our quest to enter the
marketplace as the gold standard of cannabinoid supplements," says
Germano. "Innovation in cannabinoid extraction from food sources
other than cannabis and hemp as well as leading technology to
enhance bioavailability was our number one goal in this important
phase of the initiative and we achieved it."
"Our considerable momentum completing Phase I of our CBD product
development is timely with growing validation in the marketplace as
a major national news organization like The New
York Times takes a position as
it did this Sunday, July
27th in its editorial section calling for the
national legalization of cannabis," said Inergetics CEO
Mike James. "In addition, it is
important to note that the medical applications of cannabis and CBD
are varied with the greatest opportunity in the broader consumer
marketplace. Our progress is significant and puts Inergetics on the
leading edge of this business."
Inergetics' CBD-based supplements are expected to be distributed
via medicinal marijuana dispensaries in 2015.
Continued updates on the CBD product initiative and the
Scientific/Medical Advisory Board will be made available at
