In this episode of The Addict to Athlete podcast, Coach Blu delves into the profound impact World War II had on soldiers, focusing on the often-overlooked aftermath of addiction among veterans. He explores how the intense pressures of war led to widespread use of substances like methamphetamines, particularly highlighting Nazi Germany’s controversial program to create "super soldiers" by administering these drugs to enhance performance and endurance. Coach Blu connects these historical insights to the broader challenges athletes and individuals face with addiction, emphasizing the long-term physical and psychological effects that can persist long after the battlefield. This episode offers a compelling blend of history, science, and human resilience, shedding light on the complex legacy of war and substance use.
