Game Up Nutrition was selected as the CBD provider of choice for Honua Therapeutic Massage. In a previous article CBD Selection Process, the four most important factors, the first two relating to Safety, honor and integrity of the owners of CBD providers, and CBD lab testing data. With the 2nd two reasons relating to developments in professional sports paving the way in providing reliable data and assisting people in the selection process of how, what and when to incorporate CBD into their diet. The reasons are;

1. Safety, Owner’s Integrity and Honor. There is appreciation and respect for Nate and Nick Diaz, the Owners of Game Up Nutrition for their integrity, honor, knowledge, experience and pioneering efforts in showing the many actual health applications of CBD in recovery, recuperation at the highest levels of professional mixed martial arts. Following the Diaz brother’s fight career vicariously since their initial appearance on a Honolulu fight card and Shooto Japan, Nick Diaz is regarded with respect and honor in the hardcore Hawaii and Japanese mixed martial arts circles. As a student of Karate, Nick Diaz had admiration and respect for Japanese martial arts traditions, culture and the Pride FC rule sets. His Boxing, Karate integrated with Cesar Gracie Jiu Jiutsu, Wrestling, Sambo and Judo is a beautiful master piece of art and creative display of how effective his composite style has been in near real life situations.

His dismantling of then Shooto Middleweight champion Hayato Sakurai and Pride Lightweight Grand Prix Champion Gomi Takanori during his appearances in Pride, Dream, Japan’s Shooto 2002 Year End and Pancrase events have a lasting and memorable impact for martial arts supporters abroad.

2. The most difficult hurdle to assess has been choosing a vendor owned by people with a history of high integrity and honor. Nick and Nate Diaz give us confidence and faith in their business practices and ethics to promote accurate publishing of ingredients appearing on their product labels.

3. Game Up Nutrition’s Flagship 1000mg CBD (Isolate) Tincture in use for the CBD Total Body Treatment CBD lab test results indicated predominantly only CBD with negligible THC and other cannabinoid content. Therefore we can lend more credence of their CBD oil containing less than 0.3% THC to have a higher degree of reliability.

WADA CBD Rule Changes, Testing and Private Research and Developments in Pro MMA

1. An additional factor that helped us to decide in affiliating with Game Up Nutrition is observing closely, Nate Diaz use of his own Game Up Nutrition products and compliance with the United States Anti Doping Association “USADA” drug screening protocols who follow the World Anti Doping Association “WADA” protocols sanctioned by the IOC for use in screening Olympic athletes. As THC is one of the compounds tested during drug screening, more credence is lent to Game Up Nutrition’s claims supporting the lab test results regarding the congruence of their product label and contents of their CBD products. Game Up Nutrition provided the affiliate opportunity to support and promote a quality company and be compensated for referring business. The cause to shed light on the health benefits of CBD is one that is noble and worth supporting. Thank you Game Up Nutrition!.
2. It was discovered that the higher the potency and more exotic the extraction, manufacturing processes, the higher the cost of CBD per milligram. Trying to find the highest potency, purity and highest quality of ingredients used available in a vendor at a relatively reasonable cost in practical reach as of this moment continues to be our mission in this endeavor. As Private research and development trailblaze these emerging sciences, standardized quality control measures, labeling, and testing will evolve alongside. The trend in our understanding of cannabinoids and their applications, are similar to the trends in the recognition of hemp seed and hemp protein as a highly nutrient mineral dense food item for health conscious lifestyles, sports and athlete diet and an item to include into business and leisure travel as a high quality amino acid protein source.

UFC and Aurora Cannabis Inc. Joint partnership CBD study

An exciting CBD and cannabinoid research and development partnership was announced by The UFC and Aurora Cannabis Inc. on May 21, 2019. This undertaking is monumental. A for profit professional martial arts fight company and a leading Canadian government contracted distributor of medical cannabis and CBD products pooling their resources and expertise with an intrinsic interest in delving into the science and clinical research applications of CBD in increasing performance of UFC contracted fighters prompted us to ramp up our efforts. This level of motivation and capital investment provides for an opportunity to advance the understanding and discovering of new efficacies of CBD that public institutions such as the FDA and state health departments could never conceive of or venture into. As martial arts enthusiasts and supporters of MMA, we were introduced to CBD and its potential benefits from fighters talking about it back in 2015. Their dosing and usage compelled great interest in how their training recovery was being aided by including CBD into their diet.

Learning about CBD and other Cannabinoids through the sentiments of professional martial arts players and fighters, and how CBD and other Cannabinoids were helping them during their BJJ, Judo, Sambo, Capoeira, Taekwondo, Karate, Boxing, Muay Thai, Wrestling training with reducing inflammation, reducing pain and improving sleep healing process and recovery from the rigors of intense high impact training camps and martial arts skills development has definitely raised significant attention as to CBD, CBN, CBG and other combinations of Cannabinoids and their applications in Massage and Facial Esthetics. We felt if CBD and other Cannabinoids are effective to any extent in sports and competition as strenuous and stressful as MMA and other martial arts competition, we imagine the possibilities and the beneficial effects it could have on the general populace, working people, recreational sports hobbyists and travelers. We took cue from the fighters and started using CBD and other Cannabinoids in combination to determine on a personal level first if their claims had any truths to them. As the testing started, what was  understood is our genetics, physiology and response to CBD was positive without allergic reaction. Variations of testing started experimenting with varying doses, modes of delivery, various makers, home made concoctions etc., over the 4 year period. The conclusion reached was that there are benefits to using CBD and combining other Cannabinoids depending on specific situations and issues. The experimentation continues with dosage and cycle durations, whether cycling on and off for periods of time or continuous application is more effective long term is still yet to be determined. We are now at a point where we can start offering CBD as part of our arsenal of tools to increase the effectiveness of massage, health and wellbeing for guests who wish to have treatment. For any inquiries please feel free to reach us by chat, phone, email and looking forward to assisting you personally. Mahalo
