Since the World Anti-Doping Agency removed CBD from its banned substances list in 2018, countless athletes have chosen to embrace the cannabinoid for countless reported benefits. These public figures of health and wellness are helping to support the cause of getting more research, regulation and general understanding of CBD.
“Athletes like Ryan who work in punishing physical conditions are seeking relief and we are happy to be a part of the solution,” said Ari Sherman, CEO of Evo Hemp. “Ryan, who has won seven straight fights and has a big one coming up against Cheick Kongo on September 7th, is one of the best MMA fighters in the world. When we partnered with him in early July our social media blew up within 48 hours.”
Part of the partnership will include Bader doing monthly Instagram takeovers of Evo Hemp’s Instagram page. He will show the audience the various ways he utilizes Evo Hemp’s products for recovery and workouts.
