Athlete Essentials-Topical Ache Relief-INDIE Brands

 Balms and creams deliver relief for aches and pains-where you need it-and work speedily too.


 There are a slew of DIFFERENT kinds of hemp plant derived hemp oil (Cannabis Sativa seed oils) that are having a marketing  moment. Despite much information-consumers still can mix-up the differences between the THC loaded hemp plant one, and the CBD loaded one...and plain ole' hemp oil without any cannabinoids- that's been around the USA in products- for years, and years.

Think of it like fruit-all related but different (apples vs oranges)

Of common importance-is the purity of the hemp source-as hemp picks up whatever is in the soil it is grown in-and that includes bad stuff like pesticides, toxic metals + chemicals...etc. Look for organic, full spectrum third party verified CBD (on the label -smart code etc) to ensure potency and purity. Currently there aren't any USDA organic standards for hemp.

With that general info-one  easy to rub in cream tried-that helped a tight hamstring right away...is by CAUSE MEDIC+, a Boulder CO company.

Immediate relief indeed. The vegan, cruelty free and paraben/SLS free cream tried- has hemp oil with 400mg of water soluble CBD - from non_GMO hemp oil-an anti-inflammatory-plus the heat like healers like menthol, camphor , pepper (keep from eyeballs and sensitive skin), and soothers aloe and beet root extract-in a sunflower oil base.

8oz $40


BODY BUZZ (made by Beard Buzz-a men's grooming line based on the anti-inflammatory CBD)....is a CBD Infused body balm (handy travel option)-contains THIRD PARTY VERIFIED full spectrum CBD with 50mg of CBD per ounce and sunflower oil, jojoba, and sandalwood. $36


TAKE A BATH-having spent meaningful time in epsom salt loaded hot baths (ahhhh)...The Seaweed Bath Company -has packet sized Whole Seaweed Detox Bath ($12.99 2-4 baths) - to pour in...containing NON-GMO healing-anti-inflammatory-detox-er  sustainably harvested -organic bladderack seaweed (grown in Maine sea waters) that contains 65+ trace minerals+ a slew of vitamins- to calm down+relax our largest organ.
Good even for those with sensitive-normal-dry skin with bonus of the seaweed -loaded with iodine-that flushes out environmental toxins. The matching Body cream-contains green coffee bean extract to help skin appear a bit firmer...and ingredient we see a lot of in anti-cellulite creams.
