So far, more than 100 different types of cannabinoids have been identified and there is a growing body of evidence supporting the benefits of this class of compounds in offering symptomatic relief for a wide variety of chronic health conditions
Roots Analysis has announced the addition of “Endocannabinoid System Targeted Therapeutics Market, 2020-2030” report to its list of offerings.
Over time, extensive R&D on the potential health benefits of cannabis, have enabled medical researchers to identify a number of pharmacologically active ingredients that offer clinical benefit, minus the addictive properties of the crude substance. Currently, several stakeholders in the pharmaceutical industry are actively engaged in the efforts to develop leads based on natural and synthetic derivatives of cannabinoids.
