Phivida seeks to equip, empower and educate professional athletes, and active professionals with the option of using CBD-Hemp oil extract as an alternative to opiate-based pain killers to; optimize daily performance, treat chronic pain and inflammation-based conditions and to recover from training, and sports related injuries.
On January 1st 2018 the World Anti-Doping Agencies (WADA) officially removed cannabidiol (CBD) from their prohibited substances list. Phivida’s Nano-CBD™ is a natural opiate replacement therapy now available to athletes around the world, for the first time in the history of competitive sports. WADA’s decision comes in contrast to a rising global opiate epidemic, and the increased use of pain killers within professional and amateur sport.
