ECO Canadian Organic initiates innovative research to help First Nation Communities alleviate opiate addiction. This collaboration introduces a medically prescribed cannabis solution to help individuals in the Natoaganeg First Nation manage opioid addiction and methadone dependence, combining therapeutic cannabis with spiritual wellness practices.

PROJECT

"We are extremely pleased with progress of this important research endeavour offering a potentially life-changing solution that is positioned to resolve many of the current problems facing First Nations and the rest of the world pertaining to opioid addiction," Denise Hannay, CEO of ECO.

The synergistic cooperation, collective efforts, and goals of promoting wellness, helping the community, establishing a practice that can be used as a model for other First Nation communities will be accomplished in an academically structured setting for a secure research environment by including UNB's oversight and involvement.

Solutions

By using medically prescribed cannabis provided by E.C.O. in a consistent dosage formula for First Nation people suffering through and managing substance, opioid addiction and/ or methadone dependence, a very real solution is on the horizon.

The program is supported by academic research from UNB and aims to create a replicable model for other First Nations across Canada.

ECO provides 100% organic, lab-tested cannabis with a consistent dosage formula, ensuring a safe and effective treatment option. Links:
