How CBD Can Help You Sleep

CBD works wonders for many folks for anxiety and workout recovery but did you know it can help you fall asleep and stay asleep?  

Bloom Farms sent me their Dream CBD tincture to try out- and it did exactly that- helped me get to sleep faster and harder and even got me dreaming!

CBD is Cannabidiol that is derived from the cannabis plants, and the THC is removed (the stuff that gets you”high”)

I’ve blogged about CBD several times before and this green compound is pretty miraculous

About 80 percent of the people in the United States report that they have trouble sleeping at least once per week.  Many prescription drugs can be harmful or addictive.  I cannot utilize Ambien or Benadryl as they interact with other medications I take, but my doctor has green lighted me for CBD- you should DEF ask your doctor about any contraindications before trying CBD

How It May Work

CBD may help easing anxiety

Anxiety may be what’s keeping you tossing and turning.  CBD and cannabis compounds interact with the endocannabinoid system in your body and brain, and one of the brains receipts in that system is responsible for the sleep/ wake cycle

CBD is also known to help relieve pain. 

Whether you’re sore from too many workouts or have an injury that keeps you up at night- this may help you get some ZZs faster.

CBD is thought to reduce inflammation-

which is useful for recovering from workouts.  Remember when you train hard, you cause micro tears in your muscles, which in turn causes inflammation

The recommended amount of sleep is 7-9 hours and not getting enough sleep consistently will def leave you feeling crappy. 

More importantly - it can weaken your immune system, make recovering from workouts harder, and raise your risk for nasty things like hypertension strokes depression and a slew of other undesirable non dreamy things….

How To Use CBD to Sleep

It’s all about dosage and if you’ve been using CBD during the day you may need a different higher dosage at night.  Tinctures are my preferred way to take CBD but you may also try vape pens, gummies, capsules, bath bombs and new products are always being developed. 

Here’s why I love Bloom Farms

It’s DREAM formulation is its highest potency and is organically grown

It only has three ingredients- organic MCT oil, organic whole plant hemp extract and the CBD itself- seriously I can pronounce everything on the bottle

I slept like a baby, and I normally have tons of issues falling AND staying asleep

Bloom is a 1 for 1 company that’s aiming for #ZeroHunger and has already given 2.5 million meals to hungry families.
