CBD stands for Cannabidiol
Most people have heard about the health benefits of CBD. By influencing the receptors in our endocannabinoid system we can change how we react to stress, maintain a good mood and execute motor skills under pressure.
The ability to influence these reactions, to aid preparation (through improved sleep) and recovery time makes this the perfect supplement for golfers.
In addition to Cannabidiol our advanced extraction technique means we are able to maintain many other beneficial cannabinoids and terpenes in our formula which provide an array of benefits, both on and off the golf course.
Cannabinoid receptors (CB receptors)
The human body is teeming with cannabinoid receptors. Our body manufactures endocannabinoids in order to pass messages concerning functions such as pain, inflammation, memory, sensation, and mood.
We have CB receptors throughout our bodies, guarding a wide variety of responses. Different receptors are sensitive to different types of endocannabinoids. The two main receptors of the endocannabinoid system are CB1 and CB2.
CB1
CB1 Receptors
CB1 receptors are moderators of your memory, mood, motor function, perception of pain, stress response and thinking. For the player there are many obvious benefits just in the course of a single round of golf, particularly the positive effect on mood, motor function, stress response and thinking.
CB2
CB2 Receptors
CB2 receptors control signals from your bones, immune system, respiratory tract, skeletal muscle, nervous system, and cardiovascular system. CB2 receptors are moderators of inflammation and our immune response to CBD products can be used to combat many age-related conditions like arthritis. There are clear benefits here for the senior player in addition to a feeling fitter, stronger and the ability to play more often.
