CBD Gummies and Sleep

Share if you care

Many adults use CBD products when trying to relax for a restful night of sleep due to CBD’s calming properties and other relaxing ingredients.** CBD gummies are among the most popular of all CBD products, thanks to gummies’ mess-free convenience, portability, and delicious flavor.

In this article, we’ll examine how CBD works, in particular for relaxation, and the different types of CBD oil that you can find in a CBD gummy.** We’ll also look at what CBD gummies are and explore the different kinds of CBD gummies available, including CBD gummies for sleep and for other uses.** Lastly, we’ll show you what to look for when you shop for CBD sleep gummies, so that you choose a gummy product that is safe and satisfactory.

Let’s begin our CBD gummy lesson with a basic, but pertinent question: What is CBD?

Know Your Gummies: What Is CBD?

CBD, or cannabidiol, is a chemical compound found in the cannabis plant. As all of our products are made from the low-THC form of cannabis called hemp, our focus in this article will be on hemp-derived CBD.

CBD is one of a group of hemp compounds, called cannabinoids. Besides CBD, the hemp plant produces over a hundred different cannabinoids, including THC (less than 0.3% THC, by law), CBN, CBG, and more. Unlike THC, CBD doesn’t get you high. Instead, CBD interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS), which helps to maintain homeostasis, or balance.** This interaction between CBD and various receptors in the ECS produces a wealth of health and wellness benefits.**

Full-Spectrum CBD vs Broad-Spectrum CBD vs CBD Isolate

One term you’re likely to encounter when researching CBD or CBD products, such as gummies, is spectrum. Knowing which type of CBD your product contains can help you understand the effects you can expect when you use it.

Full spectrum CBD gummies are gummies that contain the “full spectrum” of hemp compounds, including all cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids, and health-friendly fatty acids. Broad-spectrum CBD is the same hemp-derived CBD oil, only the detectable amounts of THC have been filtered out (along with a few other hemp compounds in the process). Both CBD types allow the user to experience the Entourage Effect.** This is the phenomenon by which CBD and other hemp compounds, when taken together, actually bolster one another’s effects—giving you a deeper CBD experience.**

When shopping for CBD, you may also find CBD gummies and other products that contain a type of CBD called CBD isolate. CBD isolate is CBD only, with all other hemp compounds filtered out, leaving you with a product that’s 99% pure CBD. CBD isolate does not produce the Entourage Effect, which is why we don’t use this spectrum in our CBD gummies.  

What Are CBD Gummies?

CBD gummies are chewy CBD supplements that come in a variety of CBD formulations. Many adults choose to take CBD in gummy form because CBD gummies are mess-free, easily portable, and discrete. CBD gummies also generally taste much better than CBD oil tinctures or CBD pills. 

Please note that CBD gummies are not the same thing as regular gummies. CBD gummies are a health supplement and should be treated as such.**

How Do CBD Gummies Work for Sleep?

Among CBD’s health and wellness benefits is its calming properties.** When you take CBD sleep gummies, you not only get to enjoy those calming effects, but also you can enjoy the relaxation properties of other ingredients, including melatonin, passion flower, CBN, magnesium, and more—depending on which CBD sleep gummy formula you choose.**

At CBDfx, we have two popular organic THC and CBD gummies designed for sleep.**

Our CBD Gummies for Sleep contain 50mg of organic CBD and 5mg melatonin per serving, plus passion flower, lemon balm, chamomile, magnesium, and a curated blend of sleep terpenes.** These tasty CBD gummies are formulated to help you get to sleep quickly and sleep soundly through the night.**

Lemon Dream Indica Delta-9 THC Gummies

Our organic Lemon Dream Delta-9 Gummies contain added THC, taking them right up to the legal limit for THC in hemp products. With 25mg CBD and 5mg THC per serving, our Lemon Dream Gummies also contain 3mg melatonin per serving. These potent THC-infused gummies add a little extra bliss to your good night’s rest.**

How to Find the Best CBD Gummies

When you’re shopping for CBD gummies or any CBD products, it’s important to keep a few criteria in mind. 

First, make sure you only purchase CBD gummies containing CBD oil derived from organic hemp plants. Hemp is a powerful bioaccumulator, meaning that it sucks up pretty much everything from the soil that surrounds it. So, if the hemp used in your product comes from a farm that uses pesticides and other potentially harmful chemicals, those toxins will wind up in the CBD oil and, ultimately, in your gummies! So, always insist on organic CBD gummies.

You also want to make sure that the CBD brand you choose uses clean carbon dioxide to extract the CBD oil from the hemp plant. CO2 doesn’t leave behind a chemical residue in the CBD oil, as some solvents used by cheaper CBD brands do. Carbon dioxide ensures clean CBD extraction, and it also is more effective in extracting the CBD. So, you can potentially get more potent CBD gummies when you go with gummies containing CO2-extracted CBD.**

Lastly, every reputable CBD brand will back their gummies and other products with a Certificate of Analysis. A COA is an independent, third-party-generated lab report that tells you how much CBD, THC, and other hemp compounds are in your CBD gummies, and alerts you to the presence of any of the aforementioned toxins. At CBDfx, we back all of our CBD products with a Certificate of Analysis. We want your CBD gummy experience to be safe and satisfying every time!

Final Thoughts on CBD Gummies & Sleep
