Trump stated that CBD could help slow disease progression in senior patients, presenting an alternative to traditional medications. This statement has been welcomed by industry leaders, with a spokesperson from Canopy Growth Corp. expressing encouragement.
While Trump's remarks have been well-received, it's important to note that there are no publicly known statements from Canopy Growth Corp. founders or senior executives specifically endorsing the President's positive remarks on CBD therapy for older adults.
The cannabis industry has reacted positively to Trump's endorsement of CBD for older adults, with stocks surging in response. Although industry leaders have welcomed the remarks, it remains to be seen how this will translate into concrete policy changes or market growth.
