NBA star Odom’s cannabis company, Rich Soul Organics, has been working in collaboration with
Five Star Juice to create the Odom Vape Pen which launched in February at the Tobacco Plus
Expo in Las Vegas, where we bumped into the star.
Having already launched Odom 7, his CBD line that offers full spectrum oils, gel caps, muscle
creams, gummies and water solubles, the former pro-basketballer has teamed up with this big
industry name to concoct his own disposable CBD vape pen.
With the tag line ‘Worth Living’ it is clear to see he is invested. Odom explains on his website
that, “CBD oil changed my life when I began using it every day … I have worked hard to
produce this oil because I want to help the world.”
Just like other US sports stars like UFC’s Gina Mazany and the NFL’s Eugene Monroe, Lamar
Odom believes CBD is an effective, natural product that he personally used during recovery
from the six heart attacks and twelve strokes he suffered from in 2015. All of which was well-
documented in the media and on Keeping Up With The Kardashians, as Lamar is the ex-husband
of Khloe Kardashian.
Speaking to The Blast, the 39-year-old explained his history with cannabis and CBD:
If you have been on the
fence about CBD, now is
the time to hop off
“While going through rehab, I discovered certain strains that support wellness. Friends, associates
and ex-teammates asked me what solutions I was using back to recovery, and that’s when Rich
Soil Organics was born … It’s a perfect time to offer these cannabis solutions to the public who
may be going through similar body issues as I am.”
When interviewed at the Tobacco Plus Expo, the CBD advocate was asked if he thought the
NBA should allow their players to use products containing CBD. He replied “I think so, hopefully
they will.”
This could be a possibility considering the International Olympic committee’s World Anti-Doping
Agency (WADA) removed cannabidiol from their prohibited substances list in early 2018. Since
then, an increasing number of professional athletes in the UK and the US have embraced zero-
THC products.
Odom recently told his 440,000+ social media followers:
“Hemp CBD has been a HUGE game changer for me this past year and has helped me in many
ways. If you have been on the fence about CBD, now is the time to hop off and give it a try.”
