Dealing with Insomnia? Try our CBD Gummies
A good night's sleep is essential to your overall health and well-being. When you sleep well, you feel ready to take on the world and conquer your goals because you are full of energy. Experts recommend adults sleep at least seven hours, and while that sounds beautiful, the reality is that most people aren't able to achieve anywhere near that number of hours.
Unfortunately, we live in a society where we're constantly thinking about the next thing to do, this stressful and face-paced world leads us to be in a constant state of anxiety and insomnia. Many of us toss and turn every night when we should be thriving to get a good night's rest as it also helps grow and repair muscle, improve memory function and prevent many illnesses.
While there are many over-the-counter pills and medicine that helps to catch some zzz’s, the reality is that this type of medicine is extremely harmful to our bodies. But thanks to science, now we have CBD products specifically made for sleep aid. Unlike the cannabis plant’s other compound-THC, CBD does not get you high and is touted for relieving a range of conditions, including pain, anxiety, sleep disorders like insomnia, sleep apnea, restless legs syndrome, and nightmares related to post-traumatic stress disorder.
Let's dive more into the benefits of CBD and sleep.
Insomnia and CBD
People suffering from insomnia experience difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep at night. This disorder affects daytime wakefulness, the ability to concentrate, and your mood. Because of this lack of sleep, people with insomnia usually deal with anxiety.
REM Sleep Behavior Disorder and CBD
People who suffer from REM Sleep Behavior Disorder verbalize and make aggressive movements during the rapid eye movement (REM) stage of sleep. The reality is that the disorder is most common in older patients with Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.
In recent studies, CBD helped manage REM sleep behavior disorder symptoms. Before taking CBD, the patients experienced disorder symptoms 2–7 times per week. After taking CBD, the symptoms only occurred 0–1 times a week.
I always track my sleep with my wearable. After months of having a horrible sleep score and poor recovery I knew I had to do something to support recovery. I've used melatonin and other high quality products in the past to no relief. I have two cats who play at night and always wake me up. I purchased these gummies because CBD and melatonin are the “A team” for sleep and recovery, and I was not disappointed. I typically gain about 30min to 2hr of REM on a great sleep day, with this gummy just one I was at 3:40! I had less restlessness and recovered from my training load very well! I was able to feel and track an immediate improvement in sleep cycle length and quality. Excited to have this product in my arsenal to support my fitness, and recovery goals. Thank you MODE!
Sleep apnea
A few small studies have seen positive results when using cannabinoids to treat sleep apnea. CBD appears to prevent pauses in breathing during sleep in animal studies. However, studies in people are still in the earliest stages.
Although sleepiness is a known CBD side effect, it has been tested that CBD at a variety of doses leads to more sleep, but those that consume lower doses may fall asleep faster. Our CBD broad spectrum sleep gummies are a natural sleeping aid and the perfect solution for those dealing with chronic sleep disorders. They are carefully crafted for incredible taste and combine our broad-spectrum CBD with a low dosage of melatonin, Valerian root, and other natural sleep-enhancers.
Mode's CBD Gummies are a combination that will help you drift quickly into a deep sleep and wake up feeling well-rested and ready to tackle the world!
