Revive CBD: Your Perfect Workout Buddy

Working out is the antidote to stress and worry. Whether it’s surfing, dancing, or jogging, when we work out, our body releases endorphins, dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine - all the “feel good” chemicals that are responsible for what’s known as the “runner’s high.”

Our Revive CBD line is specially formulated to be the perfect workout buddy. The ingredients in our Revive CBD vape pens and mints - from the CBD and Vitamin B12 to the terpenes and essential oils - all work together to boost your workout!

Here’s an overview of what our ingredients can do to Revive you before, during, and after your workout:

CBD for Muscles and Endurance

While we are not sure whether muscle soreness comes from lactic acid build up, calcium storage, or micro-tears in the muscles, it all leads to inflammation - which is why you feel sore after a rigorous workout. CBD’s anti-inflammatory qualities can help with that muscle soreness, which can help you keep your routine. CBD also works as a pain reliever (but one without any adverse side effects), again making recovery from a rigorous workout better.

There’s also evidence that CBD could aid in endurance. In one study, it was found that without a balanced, intact endocannabinoid system, it may not be possible to achieve a runner’s high. Since CBD works directly with the endocannabinoid system, it could help boost endorphins that lead to more endurance.

Vitamin B12 for Energy

A deficiency in vitamin B12 has been linked to fatigue, and thus difficulties exercising. B12 helps your body convert carbs into glucose, which is what your body uses for energy. With a deficiency in B12, the carbs are not fully converted into glucose, which will lead to people feeling prematurely fatigued during a workout.

Orange Oil and Ginseng for Relieving Fatigue

Orange oil is known for energizing and perking up moods, but it has also been found to specifically to help with exercise-induced fatigue. In a study at the Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, it was found that inhalation of a mixture of essential oils, including orange oil, could powerfully relieve exercise-induced fatigue. Similarly, ginseng was found to reduce fatigue as well.

Sage Restoration of Muscles

Sage essential oils have been used for generations to treat muscle aches, with plenty of therapeutic literature finding sage helps restore sore muscles.

Humulene: More Anti-Inflammatory Power

Our Revive CBD vape pens and mints contain several powerful terpenes, including humulene. Humulene has been found to be a very powerful anti-inflammatory, and in one study in the European Journal of Pharmacology, it was found to be just as effective as the steroid dexamethasone! In a follow up study published in the British Journal of Pharmacology, humulene taken orally or inhaled were found to be effective against inflammation

Pinene & Limonene: Peppy Workout Pals

Our other terpenes round out the team supporting your workout! Limonene helps the absorption of other terpenes and has been found to boost mood, making it easier to lace up. Pinene has been found to be neuro-protective and anti-inflammatory, helping you to clear your mind during your work out and restore your muscles afterwards.

The entire team of ingredients in our Revive CBD vape pens and mints make for your perfect workout buddy. To boot, our Revive CBD was an award winner in the High Times’ Hemp Cup 2020. We hope you’ll experience improved motivation, performance, and muscle restoration too!
