Best Sleep Solutions: What to look for and avoid? 

Are you tired of tossing and turning at night? If the answer is yes, you are not alone. A third of Americans have trouble sleeping, yet with so many sleep products on the market, you might feel overwhelmed. What should you look for, what should you avoid? We’re here to help. Let’s explore some key factors in searching for the best sleep solutions for you. 

LOOK for natural solutions. From exercise and meditation to herbal teas and cannabis sleep gummies, pursue natural solutions whenever possible, even more so if you have a family history of addiction or take prescription drugs. 

AVOID unnecessary risk. Prescription sleep, pain and anxiety medications come with potential risks like addiction and overdose. The risk factors multiply if you drink alcohol or take more than one type of medication. Melatonin, a popular non-prescription supplement, also has potential risks and side effects, and the American College of Physicians said there is “not enough strong evidence on the effectiveness or safety of melatonin supplementation for chronic insomnia to recommend its use.” 

LOOK for CBN. This cannabinoid, essentially an oxidation byproduct of THC, is widely considered an effective natural compound for inducing and sustaining sleep. Preliminary research suggests that a 5mg dose of CBN may provide the same sedative effects as 10mg of diazepam (Valium), and CBN may also reduce pain and inflammation. CBN is a key ingredient when it comes to the best gummies for insomnia. 

AVOID too much THC. While it can help initiate sleep, THC in higher doses can mess with your REM cycles, leaving you less rested and recharged as you could be. 

LOOK for CBD. The premier cannabinoid for sleep is CBN, but studies suggest that CBD can provide additional help, essentially when paired with CBN. For this reason, THC sleep gummies and CBD sleep aids might be nice, but the ideal formula pairs a healthy dose of CBN and CBD with a more moderate dose of THC. 

AVOID screen time before bed. Limit screen time for one hour before trying to sleep. There are several ways that digital screens can affect sleep, including over stimulating the brain and suppressing melatonin production, so avoid doomscrolling in bed whenever possible. 

LOOK for the right product. Our triple-tested FX Sleep Marionberry Plum Gummies are the ideal supplement for those seeking an all-natural cannabinoid solution to their sleep issues. These delicious gummies feature a 3:2:1 formula of CBN, CBD and delta-9 THC derived from federally compliant hemp, which means they’re available online and at retail in most states.
