As an athelte, the most important thing you can do is prioritize the balance of your mind and body to constantly perform at the maximum level. But, we are human, and are prone to things running down and in need of extra support. Of course, we can make significant improvements through consuming certain drinks, foods, and supplements, but maybe you’ve hit a plateau and are in search of a new booster. You’ve come to the right place.
Here at ReThink we keep atheletes in mind when making our CBD products. Cannabidiol, or CBD, for athletes can help with high intensity workouts. neuropathic pain relief, a good nights sleep, and more. In the world of sports medicine, research is consistently conducted to help maintain and improve sports performance, endurance, and stamina and more recently, the studies are dissecting the various benefits of CBD.
While the cannabis plant has a bit of a bad reputation in the world of sports due to strict drug testing and monitoring, we are changing the stigma and are here to differientiate CBD from THC. CBD is not psychoactive meaning that it won’t induce a high like mariguana does. The high is caused by high levels of THC which CBD does not have.
In order to even be able to legally produce and sell CBD in the USA, those in the CBD industry must produce CBD oils and other CBD products with a THC content no more than .3%. We are proud to offer broad spectrum CBD that is completely THC free.
As an athlete, it is always a good idea to be cautious about the side effects of foods, drinks, supplements, and medicine. Science focusing on the hemp plant is diving in to the short and long term effects of CBD with some of them saying that it can be hugely benefiting for muscular pain and swelling.
It’s important to note that the World Anti Doping Agency has a list of substances that athletes are prohibited from using and while marijuana is on there, CBD is not which means athletes are free to consume and use CBD for post workout recovery and health support.
If you are in a very strict sports program that requires routine drug testing, make sure to only purchase broad spectrum CBD which is THC free, so that way you don’t face the risk of getting flagged! Luckily, the full ReThink line is made with 100% broad spectrum CBD.
Because CBD is not psychoactive, athletes do not have to worry about potential negative side effects. Unlike recreational drugs and pharmaceuticals, cannabidiol has little to no side effects, the most common being dry mouth and the least common being drowsiness.
The CBD industry uses industrial hemp for the production of CBD products which helps companies maintain their legal limit of THC. Industrial hemp has been bred to contain lower levels of THC to make a more pure CBD.
The ReThink CBD product range is diverse catering to different individuals. We have a few products specific to atheltes and their performance. Our CBD topical range is perfect for those of you in need of a little post workout recovery because it helps with pain and inflammation.
