THC For Sleep

Under modern scientific standards, researchers have just begun to uncover what cannabis may be helpful for, but one of the most intensely studied areas is THC for sleep. It should be noted that there are currently no Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved THC sleep solutions. However, studies have provided some intriguing evidence. As one recent review summarized, THC may help you fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up less often during the night, at least in the short term and when taken occasionally. Evidence has also reported that THC could reduce the time spent in REM sleep (the stage where you dream) and increase slow-wave sleep (the deep, restful sleep stage). However, the type of strain you choose and your consumption method will affect your experience, among other factors.

Is there a specific supplement or cannabinoid that works best for sleep? You might notice that most of the products we've created to promote sleep contain a blend of hemp-derived compounds in particular ratios. Yes, they include THC, but they also may contain CBD and CBN, as well as beneficial botanicals, like soothing lavender. This is because all cannabinoids work in our endocannabinoid system through similar channels, but always in slightly different ways. When we consume a spectrum of phytocannabinoids and terpenes, experts theorize that they synergize to deliver greater benefits than they may in isolation. This phenomenon is known as the Entourage Effect and is promoted through our specially curated formulations. As an example, Delta-9 THC by itself may be efficacious for sleep-related purposes, but with a little CBD, there are additional effects for full-body relaxation or soothing of daily stressors. Additionally, people have long suggested Indica-dominant strains of cannabis for sleep. Indicas are frequently described as sleepier and more relaxing than their sativa counterparts, which is why we've chosen Grand Daddy Purple and Northern Lights strains in our sleep-focused indica Live Rosin Gummies. These strains boast a terpene profile high in myrcene, suited for nighttime and evening use.

While there is no "dosage" of THC prescribed for better sleep, the research suggests that low to moderate serving sizes are likely best. Increase the amount of this cannabinoid, and the psychoactive effects become more pronounced, which for many people is still a pleasant experience but might not be as restful as they had intended. But what does low to moderate translate to? We've specifically formulated our THC gummies for sleep (and other sleep-oriented options) to fall within this general range. That means our Delta-8 oil tinctures can be delivered in precise 5 mg servings up to a more moderate serving with our Relief Delta-8 THC Gummies and Live Rosin Delta-9-THC Gummies, each with 25 mg servings. Plus, for those who require a bit more THC to get to sleep, we have Rest Delta-8, CBN, and CBD Capsules, which have a 50 mg serving. But it is always important to remember that everyone's tolerance to THC is different. The serving size of THC that you need to get your intended effect could be completely different from the next person. This is because the strength of THC's effects (and your tolerance level) depends on the product type, individual physiology, your personal experience with THC, and what other cannabinoids and terpenes the product contains. If this is your first experience with THC or your first time with one of our products, we always recommend starting with a small serving size before thinking about increasing. Remember that if you are experiencing chronic sleep issues or have a sleep disorder, consult your doctor. Our products are not intended to prevent, cure, or treat any disease.
