Athletes put a lot of
stress on their bodies in positive and negative effect. Training stress
stimulates adaptation and increases the performance, but physical trauma and
prolonged wear and tear leads to pain and injuries. Current methods of pain
management are effective, but they are also killing people. As per the search
of improved sports recovery and safer pain relief, many people are asking about
cannabidiol or CBD for athletes.
Chronic use of
over-the-counter pain relievers poses greater health risk than previously
known, and during an epidemic of opioid addiction and overdoses that kill tens
of thousands of Americans annually. In such case, athletes are rightly curious
about and eager for cannabidiols’ (CBD) promises of pain relief and reduced
inflammation without the risks associated with NSAIDs or opioids.
CBD
Basics
Cnnabinoids already
exist in your body. Scientists have identified what they call the
endocannibinoid system (ECS) that modulates the activity of neurons. Cannabidiol
(CBD) is a phytocannabinoid which is found naturally in the cannabis plant.
Unlike THC, which is also found in cannabis, CBD is not psychoactive.
