Why is Ojai Energetics™ preferable to other sources on the market?
The LIFEAID HEMP Blend proudly uses Ojai Energetics broad spectrum hemp and contains no THC. (It’s 100% THC-free, non-addictive and non-psychoactive.)
Ojai Energetics broad spectrum hemp is of the rigorously tested for heavy metals, VOCs, pesticides, herbicides, microbes, terpenes & cannabinoids.
'Broad spectrum' means that it has multiple cannabinoids, which we now know are simply the active ingredients in the hemp plant. There are currently over 100 known cannabinoids in hemp.
Another reason we chose Ojai Energetics is because they use a patented microcellular nano-encapsulation process. Generally, other broad spectrum hemp products are fat soluble, meaning they don’t absorb well into the bloodstream. Ojai Energetics has found a way around this with their nano-encapsulation process. Think of it as a sheath around these fat molecules that allow for 100% absorption into the bloodstream, making it much more potent and, subsequently, more effective.

What is nano-encapsulation?
In a nutshell, nano-encapsulation allows for faster absorption, increased bioavailability and higher potency levels. (Bioavailability is the degree and rate at which a substance is absorbed into the bloodstream.)
Now let’s break that down a bit further.
Nano-encapsulation is the patented delivery system that Ojai Energetics uses to improve the absorption rate of their hemp extract, making the hemp water soluble and more bioavailable. While other broad spectrum hemp products are fat soluble (meaning they don’t absorb well into the bloodstream), Ojai Energetics has found a way around this with their nano-encapsulation process. Think of it as a sheath around these fat molecules that allow for 100% absorption into the bloodstream, making it much more effective, much more potent.
In most hemp products, up to 90% of what is ingested is destroyed by the liver and stomach acids before it is even able to be used. This is because the body doesn’t absorb fat molecules, and must encapsulate them in water inside the gut before it can be absorbed. For example, if you eat 20mg of a regular hemp oil, only 2mg of hemp is usable. So those who consume other extracts are paying for 100% of the hemp but only getting 10% of the potency, often waiting 30 minutes before any benefits even occur.
With LIFEAID HEMP you’re getting more bang for your buck, plus a higher absorption rate due to the nano-encapsulation process used by Ojai Energetics.

Being an athlete goes beyond training & performing. It’s a lifestyle. A lifestyle that requires a high level of attention on everything outside of the actual physical exertion—sleep, recovery, stretching, mental attitude, immunity, mood, body weight, food choices… Every great athlete knows that the physical strengths will only take you so far.
“An athlete’s health foundation is what truly sets one up for success.”
As a serious athlete and a board-certified sports dietitian, I have a relatively sound, health-forward diet, but even I can make improvements. Confession: I do not follow a strict diet. Instead, I make nutritious choices and aim to do what’s best 80% of the time, leaving 20% for fun. I’m finding that while it is nice to have a ‘break’ from assessing my performance diet, 20% is still a large chunk. Imagine if you slacked off on 20% of your training? Eek. As my goals get stronger, I need to re-evaluate that 20%. Those choices do not have to be perfectly on point, but they can still be choices that will be beneficial for my health instead of taking away from it.
For example, one of my 20% choices used to be Diet Coke. However, I know it is not good for my body. The research is pretty clear that soda, whether full of sugar or sugar-free, does not promote health and actually is proven to take away from it—decreasing gut microbiome by 50 percent, increasing type 2 diabetes and numerous other crazy health risks...
Luckily, I’ve found an ideal replacement that is still cold, refreshing and energizing, but is actually health-promoting, specifically when it comes to targeting my body’s nutrient needs for fitness improvements. FITAID ZERO is a researched-based, naturally flavored beverage that is specially balanced with supplemental ingredients that help athletic recovery. Now instead of grabbing a cold can that might lead to increased sugar cravings and weight gain, I can grab a cold can that might improve muscle speed, reduce muscle breakdown, strengthen mitochondria, provide antioxidants, replenish electrolytes and boost energy levels after a tough workout. This is due to the drink’s potent blend of vitamins, minerals, green tea, quercetin, turmeric, BCAAs, and CoQ10—ingredients proven to positively influence performance factors. FITAID ZERO also has (as the name suggests) no sugar! Meaning it won’t spike my blood sugar and I can rely on more whole food sources to provide the carbohydrates and calories my body requires.

You don’t have to worry about being strict all the time, but do consider how those 20% choices play in to your 100%, choosing wisely whenever there are those easy, small swaps you can make to create a healthier foundation that will boost your lifestyle and ultimately improve your athletic performance.
