BEEP. BEEP. BEEP. Oh no, there’s the alarm. You get out of bed and you’re already exhausted. Didn’t you just lay in bed for hours? Why are you still so tired?
Tossing and turning all night can affect every aspect of your life. It’s difficult to focus on anything when you haven’t slept well. Even the slightest bit of sleep deprivation can affect your productivity and make you feel like less than your real self. You deserve to sleep — and to sleep better!
CBD can help with a myriad of things in your day to day life. It can relieve aches, help you find balance, keep you calm and relaxed, and most importantly, it can help you get to sleep.
Whether you’re taking a gummy, a drop from a tincture, or a capsule, CBD is an excellent aid for getting better and more restful sleep. But how does CBD work in your body? And how does it affect your sleep? It begins and ends with an internal system in your body called the endocannabinoid system, or ECS for short.
The ECS is essentially a system of receptors in your brain and nervous system that interact with cannabinoids, including THC and CBD. These interactions produce the effects we associate with cannabinoids. The CBD you take attaches itself to specific receptors within the ECS that play a role in regulating stress, mood, inflammation levels, and more. [1]
How does CBD impact sleep specifically? Research shows that it interacts with receptors tied to the sleep and wake cycles within the body. CBD may also help relieve stress, which further allows the body to relax and settle into sleep. When combined with THC in the form of full Spectrum CBD, its effects are potentiated — allowing you to sleep even better than you would with CBD alone. [2]
By getting more restful and fulfilling sleep from CBD, you can get back on track and feel recharged and ready for the day. After all, you spend over half your lifetime in bed. Make the most of it.
Sleep-friendly CBD products
If you’re ready to leverage CBD’s power to sleep better, the following products should help.
- Pain Relief Cream
- Good Night Liposomal CBD+ Capsules
- Sleep Tight Gummies
- Evening Wellness Bundle
- Sound Asleep Gummies
Pain Relief Cream
At first glance a pain relief cream may not have any obvious connection to sleep. After all, topical CBD products don’t become absorbed into the bloodstream. Yet they can still silence stubborn aches and pains enough to improve sleep in a more indirect way.
If your aches and pains are severe enough to keep you up at night, Medterra’s Pain Relief Cream may be right for you. This OTC product breaks the stereotypes of traditional pain creams that only rely on menthol, and can provide fast relief for arthritis and joint pain.
Good Night Liposomal CBD+ Capsules
Our CBD Sleep Capsules provide an efficient, fast-acting way to sleep better. It combines our premium CBD with a blend of proven sleep enhancers, including melatonin, chamomile, passionflower, and GABA. All these ingredients are delivered liposomally, resulting in up to 10x faster absorption than traditional oral capsules.
Sleep Tight Gummies
Medterra’s CBD Sleep Tight Gummies are designed specifically to help you relax before bed and get a good night’s sleep. They taste delicious, too, having been flavored with natural strawberry extract. Each bag contains thirty 25mg CBD gummies — enough to facilitate a month of good sleep for most people.
Sound Asleep Gummies
Sound Asleep Gummies are the highest-potency sleep aids we offer. They’re designed to work when nothing else will. These Gummies are packed with:
- 5 mg THC | In addition to relaxing and resetting things, 5 milligrams of hemp-derived THC makes CBD even more potent.
- 50mg CBD | This CBD mega-dose may get your circadian rhythm back on track, resulting in naturally easier sleep.
- 3mg melatonin | Melatonin is a time-tested, clinically proven hormone that your body already produces in order to facilitate sleep. Adding another 3mg of melatonin into your system is a surefire way to supercharge your sleep.
- 100mg L-theanine | This green tea-derived amino acid is tangibly relaxing and sets the stage for a calm, cool, and collected evening — side effect-free.
While every product we’ve mentioned above is verifiably sleep-friendly, Sound Asleep Gummies shine the brightest (or snooze the loudest). These Gummies are designed for wellness-oriented adults who hope to:
- Fall asleep faster and easier
- Stay asleep throughout the night
- Wake up feeling refreshed and rejuvenated — never groggy
And don’t just take it from us — take it from our customers. Joseph confirms that Sound Asleep Gummies are unlike anything else on the market (well, at least unlike anything else he’s tried):
“After trying many other sleep products, I find this works extremely well for me. It has the best combination of ingredients to be effective and I fall asleep fast! 👍”
Another customer says the same thing. Noticing a trend yet?
“5 stars! I have been using these gummies to get sleep for the past two weeks or so. I was skeptical at first since I’ve tried other sleep gummies in the market with no luck. But I gave these ones a try and I’m so glad I did!”
Summing things up
CBD can help with a myriad of things in your day-to-day life. It may relieve aches and pains, help you find full-body balance, and keep you calm. Most important to this blog, it may also help you sleep. Consider trying some of the above sleep-specific CBD products if you feel like it’s time for a change. Especially our new Sound Asleep Gummies!
