​Tackling Chronic Pain with Plant Medicine: How this NFL Duo's Partnership with Harvard to Advance Cannabis Research & Athlete Performance ft. Rob Sims​

According to a Boston University research study, 345 of 376 former NFL players showed signs of CTE. Chronic Pain is also common for former athletes, especially those who played in the NFL.

Plant-based medicine has become an alternative possibility for athletes eager to move away from pharmaceutical dependency.

This week on The Dime, we host Rob Sims, Co-Founder of the Primitive Group, to discuss the following: 

• Their partnership with Harvard to study CTE and others
• NFL & Cannabis today
• How their performance line utilizes a proprietary blend to maximize athletes' recovery
