How do you like to medicate? (flowers, concentrates, edibles?)?

First and foremost, I believe in organic cannabis, nurtured and cultivated with good intentions but ultimately, how I medicate depends on what I am attempting to relieve and/or accomplish. Flower is my go to, specifically a indica dominant, when dealing with a slight headache or when in a meditating state of mind. To relieve anxiety as well as stimulate my appetite, a flower, specifically a sativa dominant, is my go to due to the upbeat affects it possesses. As a result of playing football for 17 years, I suffer from chronic knee, shoulder, and back pain as well as an increased chance of developing Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy also known as CTE. To cope with my chronic pain and combat CTE, I utilize edibles every chance I get. Edibles not only provide me with a heavily sedated head high to treat my brain from any potential neurological and/or cognitive damage but a heavily sedated body high which effectively and efficiently treats my chronic pain. With recent research proving cannabis as a potential treatment and/or preventative for concussions and CTE, every athlete who participates or has participated in high impact sports should have access to cannabis in non-smokable forms. IsoSport and Boulder Botanicals are partnering up with us in a groundbreaking research study we are conducting.
