The experts at Medical News Today acknowledge that short-term, high doses of CBD may encourage a more optimal sleep experience for most consumers. However, The Mayo Clinic reports that CBD content isn’t always reliably displayed. Their results showed that more than a quarter of the products advertised online contained less CBD than the product labels suggested.
Clinical researchers found that 25 mg was an effective dose to curb mild anxiety, but to promote better sleep a different dosage was required. Sleep experts suggest consuming 1-6 mg of CBD for every 100 lbs of body weight to optimize sleep. Me Fuimaono-Poe, MSN, FNP, and the medical director for the Malie Cannabis Clinic, recommends “starting with 25 milligrams and increasing as needed.” However, more research is needed to determine a reliable method for CBD dosing.
The packaging for Sunmed CBD Full Spectrum Nighttime Vegan Gummies recommends a dosage of one gummy each night but fails to identify the CBD content. The total cannabinoid per serving is listed as 25 mg, but Sunmed does not identify or quantify the cannabinoids present in each gummy. The only option to confirm the actual CBD content in Sunmed CBD products is to locate the laboratory results. Harvard Health Publishing states this can be challenging and
time-consuming for consumers and increases the risk of incorrect dosage.
Sunmed CBD Full Spectrum Nighttime Tincture Blueberry states that it includes valerian root and lavender essential oils, but doesn’t detail its remaining ingredients. The brand’s website indicates they created a “proprietary formula” that is “rich in cannabinoids” but does not display the full ingredient list or the actual CBD content.
Partnered Reserve’s Sleep Tincture comes in a 30 ml bottle that packs in 66 mg of CBD. The ingredient list also includes 2 mg of melatonin and 10 mg CBN to aid in anxiety relief and optimize sleep. The CBD content is prominently visible on the bottle itself and is also easy to access on the brand’s website.
Partnered Process CBD also offers gummies in packs of 30. Each gummy contains 25 mg of CBD and 5mg of CBN, among other simple ingredients that are clearly listed.
