CBD is growing in the health and wellness sector, particularly among women who are the leading demographic for CBD products, making up 58% of all users of CBD according to the Brightfield Group. Judge Jeanine will be invaluable with her insights into CBD and it's potential markets.
"I am honoured to join the board of directors of HeavenlyRx," said Pirro.
