Whilst we\u2019re all aware that stigma and restrictions still exist, these issues haven\u2019t and are not likely to slow down the industry\u2019s global growth. From your favorite Hollywood celebrities all the way to your neighbor\u2019s grandma, CBD is proving to be beneficial to people around the world! They\u2019re using CBD to deal with pain complaints, insomnia, anxiety, the list goes on and on.<\/p>\n<p>At the beginning of 2018, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) removed CBD from the list of prohibited substances for athletes &#8211; whether they\u2019re in or out of the competition. Since then we have seen more and more athletes using and promoting CBD and publicizing its natural benefits.<\/p>\n<p>CBD is a natural substance and it\u2019s part of many people\u2019s daily lives. However, it has been massively underrepresented in studies compared to its cousin which seems to get all of the attention, \u2018\u2019THC\u2019\u2019. Let\u2019s be honest, most of us have no idea how CBD is even made!<\/p>\n<p>So whether you\u2019ve never heard of CBD or you use it every day, keep on reading to find out the process in how they generate everyone\u2019s favorite natural supplement and why it\u2019s taking the sports industry by storm.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>An Introduction<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h4><em><strong>So what exactly is CBD?<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n<p>Medical patients advocate it. Researchers are engrossed in it. Government regulators are overwhelmed by it. And investors are head over heels for it. But what exactly is CBD?<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cannabidiol (or better known as the famous CBD), is a popular natural remedy used for many common illnesses such as anxiety or depression. It\u2019s one of over 100 chemical compounds known as cannabinoids found in the cannabis Sativa plant.<\/li>\n<li>CBD oil is made by extracting CBD from the hemp plant, then diluting it with a carrier oil like coconut or hemp seed oil.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><em><strong>CBD In Canada<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n<p>As legalization continues to evolve and expand in Canada, so do the available methods of consumption. Both product and technology advancements are providing consumers with many new and exciting options, which are growing stronger and stronger each day. You can check out some current statistics from Benzinga, they collect and outline Canada\u2019s&nbsp; CBD usage based on medical consumer sessions, take a look <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/markets\/cannabis\/19\/10\/14669544\/canadian-cbd-usage\"><em><strong>here<\/strong><\/em><\/a>. The data collected by&nbsp; Bezina using strain point states that the CBD market \u2018\u2019<em>gained momentum in Canada over the past year; last month, CBD oil was used in 9% of medical cannabis consumer sessions, up from 4% in September 2018<\/em>\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>There are a bunch of CBD products already available in the Canadian market which allow consumers to choose from a wide range of natural products &#8211; from <a href=\"https:\/\/wjmediademo.com\/pol\/product-category\/oils\/\"><em><strong>CBD oils<\/strong><\/em><\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/wjmediademo.com\/pol\/product\/cbd-gummies\/\"><em><strong>gummy bear edibles<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, to <em><strong>lip balm<\/strong><\/em> and <a href=\"https:\/\/wjmediademo.com\/pol\/product\/cbd-balm\/\"><em><strong>body cream<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, you\u2019ll surely find something to suit you.<\/p>\n<h4><em><strong>What can it do for me?<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n<p>CBD has a huge therapeutic value and it\u2019s already well established. The natural substance has been proven to be an effective sleep aid, painkiller, and general anti-inflammatory.&nbsp; However, CBD\u2019s benefits go far beyond minor disease-related usage. The same qualities in&nbsp; CBD oils that lead to renewed health also make CBD an excellent choice for athletes!&nbsp; It has the ability to relieve stress symptoms and may prevent burnout. As it\u2019s also sleep aid, using CBD may even improve recovery times from a sports-related injury. It also goes as deep into the mechanism behind cannabidiol\u2019s ability to quiet anxiety, this can lead you to huge athletic benefits in your hobby and\/or career.<\/p>\n<p>So are you ready to discover how using CBD could benefit you in the sports industry and impact your performance? Up next are our top 5 tips in how CBD benefits athletes!<\/p>\n<h3><strong>CBD Can Help &#8211; Reduce Inflammation and Relieve Pain<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Whether you work in the sports industry and exercising is part of your career or it\u2019s a passionate hobby, all athletes have experienced inflammatory pain at least once in their lives. This type of pain occurs when you work your muscles to their absolute max or when you sadly get injured.<\/p>\n<p>This is completely natural and you know that If you have ever experienced inflammatory pain, you would usually go to treat it with over-the-counter nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as Ibuprofen.<\/p>\n<p>CBD is known to have anti-inflammatory effects which are especially beneficial for athletes.&nbsp; The reason for this is due to CBD being able to decrease tissue inflammation and flush the body of toxins at the same time, which eventually allows athletes to avoid minor injuries and keeps their muscles in better shape.<\/p>\n<p>According to research outlined in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC6043845\/\"><em><strong>cross-sectional study of cannabidiol users<\/strong><\/em><\/a> they say that&nbsp; \u2018\u2019<em>out of the 62 percent of people who use CBD to treat a medical condition, most use it to manage chronic pain, arthritis, and joint pain<\/em>\u2019\u2019.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>CBD Can Help With &#8211; Making a Speedy Recovery &amp; Fighting Fatigue<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>As an athlete, you want to perform well; and recovery along with fighting fatigue becomes an important aspect of this. When working out, you continuously invite stress symptoms to your body as you\u2019re encouraging it to grow. The physical stress that you receive from this results in <em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/health\/oxidative-stress\">oxidative damage<\/a><\/strong><\/em>. When this happens too much, it can harm performance and slow down your recovery. On top of that, it can also lead you to mental and physical fatigue.<\/p>\n<p>When we think about where we can start on reducing oxidative damage in a natural way,&nbsp; CBD comes into the picture. CBD can help athletes recover faster and perform better. Think of it this way, the faster you recover, the more you work out, the more you work out, the better you feel!<\/p>\n<p>CBD is known to stimulate your body and help it to recover naturally.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>CBD Can Help With &#8211; Stress Symptoms &amp; Anxiety&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Athletes receive a lot of stress symptoms throughout their careers and many don\u2019t realize that this can lead to motivational disorders such as anxiety and depression. Such things may have an impact on the way they perform.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you\u2019re a professional athlete or not, anxiety and depression can influence the way we live our lives and can even deter us from leaving the house and keeping active. We\u2019ve all tried to push through these emotions, but if you do it the wrong way it can wreak havoc on how well we perform day in day out.<\/p>\n<p>Small scale human studies have found that CBD can help with certain forms of anxiety as it\u2019s known for its calming effects. It can help to take the edge off and alter your response to stress symptoms in certain situations. One to check out is a study conducted by <a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1177\/0269881110379283\"><em><strong>Sage&nbsp; Journals: anxiolytic effects of cannabidiol (CBD) in generalized social anxiety disorder.<\/strong><\/em><\/a> Their results suggest that \u2018\u2019<em>CBD reduces anxiety in <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/diseases-conditions\/seasonal-affective-disorder\/symptoms-causes\/syc-20364651#:~:text=Seasonal%20affective%20disorder%20(SAD)%20is,and%20making%20you%20feel%20moody.\">SAD<\/a><\/strong> and that this is related to its effects on activity in limbic and paralimbic brain areas<\/em>\u2019\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>If you find that you\u2019re getting butterflies in your stomach before a big game, having thoughts of worry or just a general depressed mood is impacting your athletic prowess, CBD may provide some relief.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>CBD Can Help With &#8211; A Good Night&#8217;s Sleep<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Poor sleeping habits are very common and can have an impact on our mood but they also massively affect our recovery and performance. Adults, in general, need to be sleeping for a&nbsp; full 8 hours to wake up feeling energized, or at the very least, we need to stay asleep throughout the whole night. There\u2019s no doubt that athletes require plenty of sleep in order for them to perform their best. Actually, a large amount of recovery and muscle rebuilding takes place when we are sleeping, so it\u2019s vital to make sure we\u2019re getting a good night\u2019s rest.<\/p>\n<p>As we mentioned before, studies have shown that CBD relieves anxiety and stress symptoms, which can play a significant role when it comes to a person\u2019s ability to fall asleep with ease and sleep throughout the night!<\/p>\n<h3><strong>CBD Can Help With &#8211; Weight Loss&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Experts point out that there is evidence that CBD can convert white-colored fat tissue (the cells that store energy) into brown-colored fat tissue (which burns it;) This process is oddly known as \u2018\u2019browning\u2019\u2019. This results in:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Enhanced breakdown and oxidation of fat<\/li>\n<li>Increase in the body\u2019s ability to burn calories<\/li>\n<li>Decrease of the expression of proteins involved in fat cell generation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The study published in<strong><em> <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/27067870\/\">Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry<\/a><\/em><\/strong> opens our eyes to the fact that cannabidiol can promote browning in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.<\/p>\n<p>On top of that, another investigation conducted shows that CBD can aid in improving glucose tolerance in animals, this makes them more resistant to diabetes. Super promising,&nbsp; but not yet conclusive in humans.<\/p>\n<p>As evidence shows, CBD may be able to increase the browning of your cells by converting white to brown. By simply using this natural substance, you may find weight loss a lot easier.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Try It Out Yourself Using High-Quality Providers!&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>We at Plant of Life take pride in serving our fellow Canadians in need since 2017!
