Nearly 40 million adults in the US suffer from some type of significant sleep disorder and it is assumed that an additional 20 million people annually have experienced sporadic sleep problems.
Cannabis to the rescue! Cannabinoids, as well as terpenes and other synergistic natural products, not only positively impact sleep but can also mitigate virtually every problem associated with a lack of sleep.
Sleep deprivation has been linked to elevated blood pressure and higher cholesterol, as well as to an increase in the risks for every other cause of heart disease. The importance of sleep can’t be overstated. Inadequate sleep for even just one night can trigger events that begin to depress the immune system.
Today on the Hempy Hour we talk about the double edged sword of sleep disorders. Do I have a health condition that causes a sleep disorder or do I have a sleep disorder that puts me at risk for a health condition?...Whatever your sleep challenges are we are talking about how cannabis/hemp may handle both scenarios.
Your tax dollars have pumped the NIH with over $184m during FY2019 alone into researching cannabinoids and their therapeutic properties, amongst that research everything from the munchies to cancer. Sleep related research has shown that cannabinoids, like CBD, CBN and CBG hold the greatest potential for developing safe and effective natural sleep aids but also for developing analgesic products that can bring the precursors to sleep disturbances into homeostatic balance.
One Love! Thank you for your support
