CBD for Sleep

Everyone knows that a good night's sleep is essential to our health and wellbeing, but the stresses and strains of modern life means that we all struggle to drift off once in a while, and for some people the simple act of getting to sleep, or getting a full night's rest, can be a real challenge. Whether you're always fighting for a good night's sleep, or whether it's just an occasional challenge, our experts can help you choose from our carefully curated range of products to help you relax and drift away effortlessly with the help of CBD.

What products are best for better sleep?
Typically we recommend Tinctures (oils) as you can microdose. Microdosing is the action of gradually taking increasing amounts of CBD to benefit from its physiological action while minimising wastage. Your body only absorbs the amount of CBD it needs. By starting with a low dose and gradually increasing the dose, you can figure out what works for you.

How does CBD work for sleep?
CBD works by balancing the chemicals out within your body. It directly interacts with the Endocannabinoid System (ECS); the ECS aims to achieve homeostasis. When you're struggling to sleep, your body is chemically imbalanced; CBD helps reduce the chemical imbalance and acts as the police officer to your body, ensuring complete chemical balance (homeostasis).

Sleep restores the mind and body, preparing us for the following day and warding off illness, but it doesn't come naturally to everyone. For some falling asleep is as easy as getting into bed, but for others it's a struggle to drift off and stay asleep. Many are turning to CBD for a better night’s sleep

The chemical, cannabidiol (CBD), occurs naturally in the hemp plant. It directly interacts with the body's endocannabinoid system to redress any imbalance in chemicals. Its calming effect can help treat anxiety and improve the quality of sleep in people who take it regularly.

Best CBD for sleep

For those who struggle with falling asleep, we recommend a cup of caffeine-free hemp tea before bed. Kanaco 'night time' tea bags contain broad spectrum CBD for complete relaxation to ease you into a restful night's sleep.

To stay calm and focused during the day, consider using 'day time' tea bags infused with passion flower, peppermint, nettle, and high-quality hemp.

CBD oils are more suited to those who can cannot stay asleep. Available in drops or as a spray, the effects last between four to six hours, for a longer, deeper sleep. When you first start using CBD products for sleep, drops are the easiest way to control the dose.
