NEW YORK, June 4, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Psychedelic products for medical purposes, specifically for psychiatric conditions, are becoming rapidly more prevalent. For example, data published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences shows that under the influence of psilocybin, one of such compounds often found in various types of mushrooms, the brain creates a feedback loop of neuron activity and neurotransmitter release (the chemical messengers that neurons use to communicate). According to the study, this provides an understanding of why psilocybin is showing considerable promise as a therapeutic intervention for neuropsychiatric disorders including depression, anxiety, and addiction. According to Vogue, Dr. Robin Carhart-Harris, Head of the Centre for Psychedelic Research at Imperial College, London, explained that "despite record breaking increases in prescription rates of psychiatric medications, this is not impacting on rates of mental illness indeed these are going up instead of down so clearly something is very wrong My strong hope is that the development of psychedelic therapy will have a revolutionary impact on mental health care, bringing the 'care' component back and transforming societies and systems as a result."Numinus Wellness Inc.(TSX-V: NUMI) (OTC: LKYSD), Aurora Cannabis Inc.(NYSE:ACB), Tilray, Inc.(NASDAQ:TLRY), Aphria Inc. (NYSE:APHA) (TSX: APHA), Innovative Industrial Properties, Inc.(NYSE:IIPR) The similarities between the potentially upcoming psychedelic industry and the cannabis industry are numerous and clear. Following the passage of numerous legislations in recent years, the North American cannabis industry is positioned to witness growth in its consumers. In particular, the U.S. is anticipated to dominate the global cannabis market because of its early adoption while Canada is expected to trail behind, even though it is the second nation to ever completely legalize cannabis. Currently, the medical cannabis segment accounts for the majority of the overall industry, largely because of the growing adoption of alternative treatments. In fact, mdical researchers have highlighted that cannabis can be effectively used to treat ailments such as cancer, epilepsy, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and chronic pain. Numinus Wellness Inc.(TSX-V: NUMI) (OTC: LKYSD) announced last week, "its near-term goals to advance our mission to address the universal desire to heal.

Numinus believes the societal costs of mental illness, addictions, trauma and unmet human potential are much too high. New approaches and new ways of thinking are required to supplement existing options, including the application of psychedelic assisted therapies when approved by regulators. "We are not a concept. We are a growth story," says Numinus CEOPayton Nyquvest. "That means executing on our business plan and advancing each piece of our value chain one we have in place today."
