Cannabidiol, widely referred to as CBD, has therapeutic properties that can help athletes recover from their workouts. It’s pain-relieving properties can relieve the tension on the body, while its mind-altering effects can assist certain athletes to push a little harder in the region when the exercise gets really rough. This may mean, for athletes, managing post-workout inflammation, reducing muscle strain, and managing dehydration from strenuous exercise.

-Harvard-trained physician and cannabis therapeutics specialist Jordan Tishler
