So Cool! UFC Fighter Nate Diaz Vapes at Press Conference (Photos)

Yesterday, after the UFC announced the results of the 202nd match, Nate Diaz attended the post-fight media conference. While answering questions from reporters, Diaz casually took a puff from his vape.

Moments later, a reporter asked Diaz, "What exactly were you smoking?"

"CBD. It helps speed up recovery and reduce inflammation, so you might want to use it before or after a match or training," Diaz replied.

CBD (cannabidiol) is one of over 60 compounds found in cannabis. Among these compounds, CBD and THC are usually the most discussed. Unlike THC, CBD does not induce hallucinations, but it seems to offer significant health benefits for athletes.

Due to vaping, the likelihood of being penalized for using any banned substances is very low. Diaz is unlikely to face any trouble for using CBD after the match.
