Do you struggle with falling asleep or staying asleep? Everyday stresses can quickly consume our bodies and take a huge toll on our ability to sleep well. While this is common, nighttime restlessness can have a huge effect on productivity, health, and happiness. Waiting to fall asleep while your mind and body are desperate for rest can be a very troublesome and frustrating feeling. Whether you are struggling with insomnia, or are just bothered by frequent sleep disturbances, hemp oil may be a solution to your sleep woes.
Many people are hesitant to try this remedy because of preconceived notions and doubts about safety and effectiveness. Read further to understand the truth about hemp and its ability to ease your sleep troubles and aid your well-being.
Sleep disorders range from mild restlessness to chronic insomnia. Constant tossing and turning can be attributed to a variety of factors: Everyday stress, death of a loved one, too many life changes, surrounding-induced troubles, ongoing medication, alcohol, caffeine, health issues, etc. Science shows that an increase in cortisol levels causes frequent nighttime awakenings. These levels are normally high in the mornings. However, in people suffering from sleep disorders, it peaks at night.
The benefits of hemp have always been debated. Because of this, research in this field has increased phenomenally over the last decade. Some initial studies conducted about hemp oil resulted in high doses being associated with better sleep. More specifically, a study concluded that consuming 300-600 mg of hemp oil helps reduce cortisol levels. From this evidence, we can assume that it acts as a possible sedative. In general, it was found that taking higher doses of hemp oil was effective in tackling troubled sleep. Low dose, on the other hand, is known to increase wakefulness.
It has been proven that hemp oil improves quality of sleep, helps you go to sleep faster, aids deep and restful sleep, and keeps a check on factors that inhibit good sleep. Secondly, it helps move the body from REM sleep to NREM sleep, which is important for feeling refreshed in the morning.
Sleep disorders that disrupt REM cycles can be countered effectively with hemp oil; some examples that can be managed with the help of hemp include Parkinson’s Disease and PTSD.
How hemp oil impacts a person depends greatly on dosage and quality. While lower doses stimulate the mind, higher doses will act as sedatives. Research has found that about 160/mg per day helped the research participants sleep best, without waking up frequently throughout the night. In all, hemp helps in aiding the quality of sleep--even if sleeplessness is not the primary concern.
It is important to note that if used with caution, hemp helps decrease the amount of time required to fall asleep and improves insomnia.
If consumption is within the prescribed limits, it is great for insomniacs. However, chronic use may lead to dependency.
So, we recommend using your product responsively and with caution.
While some people may associate snoring with deep sleep, it is quite the opposite. As many know, snoring not only affects the quality of sleep for the snorer, but can also negatively impact others in the household. In some severe cases, snoring can disrupt breathing and limit oxygen supply to the brain, which is a much more serious issue.
Additionally, endocannabinoids have been found to act as a cushion against the symptoms associated with obstructive sleep apnea.
This condition interferes with breathing patterns while one is asleep, so protecting the brain from this symptom can bring huge relief.
A recent poll by Gallup has found that nearly 11% of Americans use hemp-based products to aid sleep. While there is ongoing debate about the safety of hemp oil, we try to educate that these products cause nearly negligible side effects if used with caution. Overuse may cause serious issues, but that is the case with all medications. There may be instances of nausea or vomiting episodes in the initial phases, but the body will soon adjust.
Most users that have tried hemp oil report only short-lived side effects, and have expressed that the benefits far outweigh short term symptoms. Similarly, traditional medication is associated with some serious side effects, so the choice is for you to make. Choosing an honest brand with quality products is the key to seeing positive results.
It is also recommended to start with low quantities and increase progressively--rather than plunging right into high quantities. Staying informed about side effects is the next best thing that someone can do to figure out which product and dosage will work best for their body.
