  Out of all the sleeping disorders, insomnia is by far the most common. People with insomnia struggle with more than just falling asleep; they also struggle with staying asleep as well as poor sleep quality. Research studies show that approximately 25% of American adults suffer from some form of sleep disorder. So, it may be reassuring to know that you’re not alone in your search for better sleep. Lack of quality sleep on a regular basis can imperil your physical health, emotional well-being, and safety. Additionally, it can put you at greater risk for heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, and other serious illnesses. To put it simply, the importance of getting a good night’s sleep should never be taken for granted- your life depends on it. Your Brain on Sleep Mode When people with insomnia attempt to fall asleep, their brains enter a state known as hyperarousal. During this state, the body goes into full reconnaissance mode and is on guard for anything that may be a threat. This heightened state of alertness makes it hard if not impossible to fall asleep. Most of the people with insomnia have a mental or physical illness that is the primary cause. Prescription, as well as illegal drugs, can also cause insomnia. To understand your case, getting to the root of the problem is essential. Keep reading to find the answer to how CBD can help you sleep and learn some surprising facts about CBD that you may have never known. Get That CBD Sleep People have been using cannabis for its potential health benefits for centuries. Its ability to help people is mentioned in numerous cultural texts such as the Atharvaveda, an ancient Hindu text. Thousands of years later, people are still turning to cannabis to help them sleep, particularly one form of it- CBD. This compound has recently exploded in popularity because of its potential to help maintain physical and mental wellbeing while promoting a sense of relaxation. It?s easy to understand why people are turning to CBD to help them sleep. According to a recent nationally representative survey of 1,267 adults in the U.S., almost 80% said they have trouble sleeping at least once a week. One quick way CBD helps with sleep is by its possible calming effect on the nerves. However, according to a 2017 review of sleep and cannabis in the journal Current Psychiatry Reports, CBD may also affect sleep directly by interacting with receptors in the brain that regulates the body?s daily sleep/wake cycles. There isn?t an exact number for the optimal dose of CBD to help you sleep. However, a small 2014 study found that a 15 mg dose of CBD increased alertness taking a higher dosage: while on the contrary, would work in helping you fall asleep. Try CBD To Maintain Better Sleep Early studies, as well as modern research, consistently show the potential of cannabis to improve sleep. New studies explicitly focused on CBD is exhibiting the same conclusive and positive results. Taking CBD for sleep is becoming more and more popular, and is shaping up to be a possible promising alternative to sleeping pills. How do I take it, you ask? CBD can be consumed in a few ways. Oil is probably the most popular, but it can also be taken in capsule form, gummies, as well as syrup. CBD vs. Sleeping Pills CBD differs from other sleep supplements like melatonin by the way it impacts the brain and body. CBD helps support sleep by interacting with the brain receptors giving it the ability to relax your body whereas melatonin directly signals to the body that it?s evening and time to go to sleep by raising the naturally occurring levels of melatonin in the body. Remain Asleep and Get Restful Sleep With CBD CBD does more than just help support you both emotionally and physically, it also may be helpful in summoning sleep and improving the quality- better sleep, better mood. Don?t sleep on this new alternative; it might be precisely what you need. Don?t just take our word for it, trust the research. The potential that CBD brings to support the well-being of so many people around the world is exciting. We are witnessing the birth of an important natural alternative to combating several health issues. Final Thoughts We consider CBD to be the most significant health and wellness story of our generation. Green Roads offers CBD in many forms. CBD oils are popular because they are absorbed under the tongue and take effect relatively quickly. However, we provide a range of products designed to plug into any lifestyle, including CBD-infused Coffee, CBD edibles, CBD topicals, and more.
