Why Use CBN to Catch Some ZZZ’s?

With the holidays upon us, getting a good night’s sleep can sometimes be easier said than done. For nights like that, having a hemp-derived product specifically designed to promote sleep can make all the difference.

That is why CBD American Shaman is proud to offer some of the most delicious and high quality CBN gummies on the market.

What is CBN?

Cannabinol, or CBN for short, is one of the many minor cannabinoids found within the hemp plant. This particular cannabinoid has become a popular niche for its sleep-promoting properties. According to Psychology Today, “CBN occurs naturally in the cannabis plant as the plant ages. That’s because over time—and when heated or exposed to oxygen—the cannabinoid THC converts to CBN.”

The popularity CBN has seen has caused the scientific community to place a spotlight on this cannabinoid. Modern research has uncovered a plethora of unique properties possessed by CBN. Some of these properties include:

  • Anti-inflammatory
  • Neuroprotective properties
  • Anti-convulsing properties

However you look at it, CBN has a wealth of opportunities to offer the scientific and medical communities. However, its most popular property, sleep promotion, has caught the attention of individuals from all walks of life looking to add something to their nighttime routine. But does CBN help individuals sleep? Let’s see what the science says:

How does CBN Promote Sleep?

Now that we have a good understanding of what CBN is, let’s explore how it promotes sleep.

In a study published by the American Journal of Endocannabinoid Medicine, researchers explored the use of CBN as a sleep aid. The preliminary study consisted of 35 participants who took 5mg of CBN and were observed to determine their sleep quality, duration, and other factors. Their research found that CBN “was directly associated with both improved objective and perceived sleep quality and duration in a sample of patients taking medical cannabis.”

In another study published by the American Psychological Association, researchers observed the use of CBN in individuals who experienced sleep disturbance. According to their findings, “The present study provides evidence to support the use of 20 mg CBN alone for the improvement of some sleep difficulties, including nighttime awakenings and overall sleep disturbance.”

While most studies are still considered preliminary, they have shown remarkable promise for this incredible minor cannabinoid. Want to try CBN for yourself? Take a look below to find out where to get high quality CBN products that are sure to make both you and your wallet happy.
