(CSE: COOL), (OTCQB: CLABF), (Frankfurt: LD6, WKN: A3CSSU) (the "Company" or "Core One") commends the groundbreaking research published in the journal Nature MedicineNature Medicine Journal: Psilocybin therapy for females with anorexia nervosa: a phase 1, open-label feasibility study, July 24, 2023 , which explores the potential of psilocybin, the main psychoactive ingredient in magic mushrooms, as a treatment for anorexia nervosa. The study, conducted with 10 female patients suffering from anorexia, has yielded promising results, with participants reporting positive experiences and an impressive four patients achieving remission of their symptoms after receiving a single dose of psilocybin under the guidance of trained therapists. This pioneering research provides the first evidence for the safety and potential effectiveness of psilocybin as an anorexia treatment. Anorexia nervosa is a severe mental illness affecting a significant number of individuals, yet the disorder has no approved medications available. With the highest mortality rate of any psychiatric disorder and a high likelihood of relapse, the urgent need for effective treatments is evident. These initial findings from the psilocybin trial offer hope for a potential new treatment option that could transform the lives of those suffering from this debilitating condition. Dr. Walter Kaye, senior author of the study results and professor of psychiatry at the University of California, San Diego, noted that the study's results suggest that psilocybin administration may help reverse altered serotonin function in anorexia nervosa, leading to a new perspective on symptoms and behaviors in patients. Core One Labs recognizes the significance of this research in advancing the understanding of mental health treatments and is encouraged by the many and continued groundbreaking studies that offer hope and potential relief for individuals battling mental health disorders. The Company looks forward to the further development of psilocybin as a potential treatment option for anorexia, and many other mental health and neurological disorders with the ultimate goal of improving the lives of those affected by this challenging condition.
