Rainbow Coral Develops Plan to Help Preserve ‘Medicine Cabinets of the 21st Century’

Medical researchers call coral reefs - some of the most biologically diverse ecosystems on the planet - the “medicine cabinets of the 21st Century.” Rainbow Coral Corp. (OTCQB: RBCC) is developing a plan to preserve and protect the marine organisms that could hold the key to finding a cure for AIDS, cancer, asthma and other chronic diseases.

“Like rainforests, coral reefs host a bewildering diversity of plants and animals that are only now being investigated,” said RBCC CEO Patrick Brown. “In the next few years, new medical breakthroughs will be discovered in reefs that could lead to treatments or even cures for deadly diseases like AIDS and cancer.

“Reefs all over the world are in danger, however,” he added. “For these benefits to be realized, coral must be preserved sustainably.”

RBCC is working to capitalize on the rising demand for medical research into coral and reef ecosystems. The company’s innovative business plan calls for the acquisition of specific parent colonies of coral to build and maintain farm populations. The farm’s brood stock will regenerate and produce successive generations, making RBCC’s coral farm a self-sustaining and reliable source for coral harvesting and research.

“The market for coral for use in medical research is rising dramatically even as many coral species face significant threats to their continued survival,” Brown said. “RBCC is working to ensure the preservation of these increasingly valuable resources by maintaining them in an ideal environment for study. We believe the growth potential for this venture is tremendous with coral populations in the wild continuing to dwindle.”
