CBD for Sleep: A Complete Guide to Help Support Sleep
May 17, 2021
No one likes a sleepless night. Lying in bed, watching the clock, tossing and turning. Missing sleep doesn’t just make you feel drowsy the next day: the long term effects of poor sleep can impact your work, your relationships, and your long-term brain health.
Some over the counter sleep products can leave you feeling drowsy the next morning. Others cause unhelpful alterations to sleeping patterns after extended use. Plant based PlusCBD works with the body’s systems to promote a natural, healthy balanced sleep.
Why CBD for Sleep Support?
Once you decide to start adding PlusCBD to your nighttime routine, you may still have questions about how to best use CBD for sleep. We’ve included some tips below to help you get the most from your nightly PlusCBD.
The one thing to know is that because everyone’s endocannabinoid system is different, the best times of day to take CBD for sleep is different for everyone. Many of our customers tell us that they love taking CBD 20 minutes before bed, and that taking CBD before bed has made a significant difference in getting a healthy night’s sleep. For others, they find CBD to give a refreshing feeling of alertness when they take CBD in the morning and early afternoon. Taking CBD in the morning eases the stresses of their day and allows them a restful night. It may take a little experimentation finding the best times for you, but we can say that enhanced sleep is one of the most common reasons we hear from customers on why they love our products.
CBD is most effective when used daily, and allowed to build up in the system, so try to get in the habit of using PlusCBD every night. Daily use increases your endocannabinoid tone, making the ECS more effective at providing balance.
Best CBD Products for Sleep Support + our new Sleep Gummies!
You have a choice of the best CBD for sleep support. Our first recommendation is PlusCBD Extra Strength Formula softgel (15 mg CBD). This recommendation is from customer and clinician feedback.
CV Sciences conducted a small clinical trial using this formula with promising results. However, the scientific evidence related to CBD oil for sleep and stress is still emerging, and it’s important to talk to your health care provider about the products you take.
If you prefer flexibility in your CBD products, PlusCBD liquids come with a pump top so you can use a little less, or on those tough days, a bit more. For those of us with a sweet tooth, PlusCBD Gummies are a tasty way to end the day.
In addition, we have a brand new CBD sleep product specifically focused on sleep: tasty gummies that feature a combination of CBD and melatonin, the famous sleep aid. Melatonin is a hormone that your body releases at night that helps to control the sleep-wake cycle. Having melatonin work with CBD to help you sleep can be a great way to have a more restful night.
