FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PotNetwork Holding, Inc. (OTC Pink: POTN) (“Company”) is excited to announce that the Company has entered into a Joint Venture with Lawrence Taylor for the development and launch of the “LT Master Pain” Premium Line of CBD oils, a premium quality selection of products, designed to bring athletes and consumers a beneficial supplement to aid in pain relief, neurological support, and overall well-being.
“I am a firm believer in the vast range of beneficial attributes that CBD delivers for joint pain and headaches. Since I have incorporated CBD to my daily supplements, even I have been taken aback by the positive impact it has had on my overall quality of life. Upon thorough research, I have selected Diamond CBD to brand this new line because genuine potency is key for maximum effectiveness. I look forward to how this line will help pain sufferers everywhere,” stated Lawrence Taylor, former NFL NY Giants Hall of Fame linebacker.
Lawrence Taylor is among numerous NFL players that are believed to be experiencing debilitating headaches, one of the long-term effects of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE). In addition to studies that show CBD’s effects on bodily pain management, it has been discovered that active compounds in cannabis, psychoactive tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and non-psychoactive cannabidiol (CBD) engage the endocannabinoid system, providing them therapeutic effects. The endocannabinoid system (ECS) also plays a key role in managing memory, mood, cognition, and risk and reward. The ECS is the largest neurotransmitter system in the body. Studies on the beneficial attributes of CBD for CTE continue since the effects appear to impact the same regions of the brain. Degenerative CTE can lead to memory loss, confusion, impaired judgment, impulse control problems, aggression, depression and, eventually, progressive dementia.
According to studies summarized by the US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health, it has possible therapeutic effects over a broad range of neuropsychiatric disorders. CBD attenuates brain damage associated with neurodegenerative and/or ischemic conditions. It also has positive effects on attenuating psychotic, anxiety and depressive-like behaviors. Moreover, CBD affects synaptic plasticity and facilitates neurogenesis. The mechanisms of these effects are still not entirely clear, but seem to involve multiple pharmacological targets.
According to a report on CBS News, scientists with the Department of Veterans Affairs and Boston University, where the nation's largest brain bank focused on the study of traumatic head injury is located, told PBS's Frontline that 96 percent of the NFL players they have examined tested positive for chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE).
Lawrence Julius Taylor (born February 4, 1959), nicknamed "L.T.", is a Hall of Fame former American football player. Taylor played his entire professional career as a linebacker for the New York Giants (1981–1993) in the National Football League (NFL). He is considered one of the greatest players in the history of football, and has been ranked as the greatest defensive player in league history by former players, coaches, media members, and news outlets such as the NFL Network and Sporting News. Taylor, retired in 1993, played 13 seasons with the New York Giants, helping the team win Super Bowl titles in 1987 and 1991.
During Taylor’s illustrious career, he revolutionalized the linebacker position in the game. His taunting, menacing upright rushing stance is the signature look for the new LT Pain Master CBD product line. As he changed the position forever, he hopes that his product line will likewise provide positive changes for those in need as well.
