Bougainville Ventures (CSE:BOG) is a CBD and cannabis solution company moving at a breakneck pace. The company has recently acquired 39% of Thrive Wellness. BOG made this acquisition at a time when CBD for athletes and cannabis wellness products are exploding.
At the moment, Professional athletes are speaking out against the continued use of opiates, and many are asking fellow athletes to look to CBD for relief instead.
Ryan VandenBussche, 46, retired NHL enforcer, David Ahrens, 60, retired NFLlinebacker and Riley Cote, 36, retired NHL winger, all have come out publicly in favor of their respective associations to forego opiates in favor of CBD for athletes.
“As a 14-year professional athlete that has had a dozen surgeries, many broken bones, and north of 20 concussions, it's better than the alternative,” VandenBussche shared with MensHealth.com. “As athletes, we were given opiates by our team doctors. Looking back after years gone by, I’m surprised I’m still alive.”
Cote swears by CBD for athletes to minimize the damage down to his body in the rink and to also help with brain health.
“I quickly realized it wasn't just helping with my brain health, but it also added another dimension to my sleep, and its subtle calming nature helped with anxiety,” he shared.
Cote even founded Athletes for Care to guide other athletes in more sustainable ways to manage pain and aid the recovery process. “It doesn’t matter who you are. We all have to manage these things to live a higher quality of life without taking a bunch of pharmaceuticals that typically create dependency and addiction."
