This is an historic moment for Pure Spectrum and for professional sports. When viewers see Pure Spectrum on athletes’ apparel, on backdrops during interviews, and on the floor of the MMA cage, the message is: CBD is accepted.”

With CBD’s removal from the banned substance list by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) and U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), SuckerPunch Entertainment’s athletes sponsored by Pure Spectrum use the Company’s hemp CBD oil in their training regimens. It is also a powerful statement for consumers who may be researching CBD.

Bell concludes, “Viewers researching CBD should quickly realize the varying degrees of cannabis law throughout the U.S. However, Pure Spectrum’s U.S.D.A. certified organic cannabidiol products are made in the U.S.A. from hemp, not marijuana.
