Rob Gronkowski, the former NFL star, has spoken publicly about his struggles with concussions, revealing he has suffered 20 in his life.
Speaking to CBS News, Gronkowski shared his experiences with head trauma, including five blackout concussions, and how he has been using CBD products to alleviate pain.
Despite his recent retirement from the NFL, Gronkowski has been flirting with the idea of a comeback, but his comments suggest he may be putting his health at risk.
As Gronkowski promotes CBD products, it's worth noting that there is limited scientific evidence to support their effectiveness in treating chronic pain or concussions.
CTE, a condition caused by repeated head trauma, is currently untreatable, and Gronkowski's comments about being 'fixed' after suffering multiple concussions are concerning.
It's time for Gronkowski to prioritize his health and well-being, and focus on his new CBD partnership rather than considering a return to the NFL.
