CBD Infused Recovery Rub Balm

Description

There has been a lot of hype about the benefits of CBD as an anti-anxiety treatment and as a mood stabilizer, but recently more people have been talking about it’s benefits for inflammation reduction and recovery. As an athlete, you may wonder if CBD is beneficial for you in this regard.

Men’s Health Magazine asked Dr. Stuart Titus, PhD, the President and CEO of Medical Marijuana, Inc., about the benefits of CBD to assist recovery. He confirmed that based on research he has seen:

“CBD seems to have a much greater antioxidant effect than vitamin C or vitamin D, so many athletes are using this to deal with inflammation,” he says. That makes it highly sought after by athletes looking to avoid other treatments like steroids, that have more significant side effects and varying levels of legality.

Titus says CBD can be used specifically for rehab purposes, but also believes it could soon become an essential component of a healthy lifestyle. “We really believe that at some point there will be a fixed daily recommended serving size of CBD. Just like people take something like vitamin C on a regular basis to improve their overall levels of health and wellness, at some point these non-psychoactive cannabinoids could garner that too, with enough research.”
