Vancouver, B.C., April 11, 2017 – MYM Nutraceuticals Inc. (CSE:MYM)(OTC:MYMMF) (the “Company” or “MYM”), a bio-pharmaceutical company in the emerging global cannabis industry, announces that it has completed its acquisition of 100% of the brand and assets of "HempMed," a Toronto-based developer and marketer of hemp-based CBD extracts and oil-infused nutraceutical products.
