CBD and a Good Night’s Sleep – Is Cannabidiol an Effective Sleep Aid?

Find out how to enhance your sleep and reduce insomnia through taking CBD supplements.

CBD and a Good Night’s Sleep - Is Cannabidiol an Effective Sleep Aid?

Many people struggle to find the best natural sleep remedy, aside from creating the perfect environment for it. Not catching enough z’s can lead some to suffer from the effects of pain, hormonal and mood issues, PTSD, or even gastrointestinal problems. That’s why sleep happens to be one of the most popular reasons people turn to CBD oil as a solution, even when some of the best natural sleep supplements fall short.

Here’s What The Research Says:

Turns out, even science thinks sleep is kind of complicated. We know it’s essential for our wellbeing, but we don’t understand everything about its role. What we do know is that sleep is crucial for many processes that are regulated by the body’s endocannabinoid system, otherwise known as cannabis receptors. 

The way we fall asleep, remain asleep,the quality of the sleep we get, and even how we wake up is regulated by our circadian rhythm and our endocannabinoid system. Which makes sense as to why CBD seems to play such an important role in regulating sleep.

study from 2019 reported that out of 72 patients (47 living with symptoms of anxiety and 27 struggling with poor sleep) 79.2% had lower anxiety and 66.7% slept better after taking one dose of 25mg CBD capsules daily. 

A Word About CBD Dosage for Sleep

Now here’s the interesting part: CBD can help with keeping you alert and helping you fall asleep. It all depends on how much you take. In small doses, CBD can help you feel energised, stimulate alertness and reduce daytime sleepy feelings. In bigger doses, it can help to soothe the pain stopping you from getting a good night’s rest and generally improve rest, making it an effective sleep aid.
