5. 35 YEARS AGO RAPESEED
EXPERIENCED THE SAME
PROBLEMS AFFECTING HEMP
TODAY
Growers needed to rebrand something that was
associated with a machine oil regarded as too
toxic for humans to consume
Low Erucic Acid Rapeseed (LEAR)?
“CANadian source of OLeic Acid” became
CANOLA
It was promoted as a safe, nutritious, multi-
purpose human and animal food ingredient
7. When you Google “hemp” you get recreational
and medicinal marijuana “Hits” because “pot
people” use “hemp” indiscriminately when
speaking about “marijuana”
10. ASSOCIATING HEMP WITH
MARIJUANA IS CREATING
CONSUMER CONFUSION
• Solutions:
• Litigate?
• Regulate?
• Educate?
• Ignore?
11. AFTER MUCH CONSIDERATION WE
CONCLUDED NONE OF THE ABOVE
SOLUTIONS ARE PRACTICAL OR COST
EFFECTIVE
Some hemp manufacturers
want to capitalize on the science
which has popularized the
term “Medical Marijuana”
The best solution:
REBRANDING
12. REBRAND CANADIAN HEMP AS
CANTERPENE
We link Canadian Hemp
with the messages:
“Extend Health-span
and Lifespan naturally
with cannabis
chemistry”
Canterpene expands
functional chemistry
beyond arginine and
omega3’s to include
cannabinoids and
terpenes
14. DOES CANTERPENE HAVE A
MARKET?
-Healthspan and lifespan extension are new unmet needs
-Personalized /Individualized Medicine is an emerging
Industry
-”Bockbuster” Pharma is migrating towards “Niche” Pharma
-Canterpene Cannabis without THC contains phyto-
chemistry which scientific research indicates would make it
a useful food supplement for the purpose of
personalized management of
AGING
15. AGING CAN BE BRUTAL
This
Becomes
This-->
All
Too
Soon
16. IT IS POSSIBLE TO
GROW OLDER WITHOUT
AGING AT ANY AGE
60 yrs old 80 yrs old
17. ANTIAGING IS AN
ENORMOUS MARKET
76 million baby boomers in the US
6 million “boomies” in Canada
Boomers now 48 – 64 and have begun to
experience the “aging process” firsthand
This generation has redefined each stage of
their lives and is currently redefining aging
23. CANTERPENE CAN HELP
AS A PREVENTIVE
ANTIAGING STRATEGY
Science has linked numerous Cannabis
compounds found in Canterpene with
beneficial effects on the diseases resulting
from “normal” aging
Canterpene captures much that other
conventional hemp supplements have
ignored
24. A toolbox for slowing aging & regenerating damage is emerging:
e.g. Plastoquinine..targeting oxidative stress

26. Food supplements claiming to support stem cell healthspan

VITALITY OF ADULT STEM CELLS SO THEY

- ASTRAGALOSIDES EXTRACTED FROM
ASTRAGALUS MEMBRANACEUS
27. CAN
CANTERPENE
WORK AS A
HEALTHSPAN
AND
LIFESPAN
EXTENSION TOOL?
32. AGING
IS NOT
LEGALLY
CLASSIFIED
AS A DISEASE
But….
33. SOME DISEASES/CONDITIONS
ASSOCIATED WITH AGING ARE
Oxidative stress
Arthritis
Central nervous system degeneration
Parkinson’s
Alzheimer’s
Cannabidiol (CBD) the major cannabinoid in
hemp has been shown to be of benefit in each of
these and many other conditions
34. OXIDATIVE STRESS
CBD treatment significantly reduced oxidative stress;
decreased the levels of tumor necrosis factor, vascular
endothelial growth factor, and intercellular adhesion
molecule-1; and prevented retinal cell death and vascular
hyperpermeability in the diabetic retina. Consistent with
these effects, CBD treatment also significantly inhibited p38
MAP kinase in the diabetic retina. These results demonstrate
that CBD treatment reduces neurotoxicity, inflammation, and
BRB breakdown in diabetic animals.
EL Remessey AB et al. Neuroprotective and blood-retinal
barrier-preserving effects of cannabidiol in experimental
diabetes. Am J Pathol. 2006 Jan;168(1):235-44.
35. ARTHRITIS
These potentially anti-inflammatory properties of CBD,
together with the lack of psychotropic effect and low toxicity
prompted us to test the potential of CBD as a therapeutic
agent in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA).
RESULTS: “We report that CBD has a beneficial therapeutic
action on established CIA.”
Malfait AM et al. The nonpsychoactive cannabis constituent
cannabidiol is an oral anti-arthritic therapeutic in murine
collagen-induced arthritis. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2000
Aug 15;97(17):9561-6.
36. PARKINSON’S DISEASE
Evidence suggests that cannabinoids may prove useful in
Parkinson's disease by inhibiting the excitotoxic
neurotransmitter glutamate and counteracting oxidative damage
to dopaminergic neurons
Croxford JL. Therapeutic potential of cannabinoids in CNS
disease. CNS Drugs. 2003;17(3):179-202.
It seems that cannabinoids could delay or even stop progressive
degeneration of brain dopaminergic systems, a process for
which there is presently no prevention. In combination with
currently used drugs, cannabinoids might represent,
qualitatively, a new approach to the treatment of PD, making it
more effective.
Sevcik J, Masek K Potential role of cannabinoids in Parkinson's
disease DRUG AGING 16 (6): 391-395 JUN 2000
37. ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE
Memory loss, the first and primary symptom of Alzheimer’s
disease, can be slowed down significantly in mice by
cannabidiol.
In a study at the Cajal Institute in Madrid, Spain, mice were
injected with a molecule found in the brain of humans suffering
from Alzheimer’s disease, and then treated for one week with
cannabidiol.
Those mice injected with cannabidiol successfully performed
the task within 25-30 seconds, compared to control mice, who
took almost double the amount of time, 45-50 seconds, to
complete the task.

-Add phytochemistry to enhance each functionality
-Utilize ingredients with both ethnobotanical and modern
pharmacological support in peer-reviewed , published
literature
-Proprietary varietal selection and agronomic production
practices allow the use of the same Canterpene ingredient
for several distinctly different formulations
