CBN SLEEP RELIEF
Recent studies claim that CBN is possibly the most potent cannabinoid when it comes to relaxation. Research evidence suggests that 5mg of pure CBN can produce the same relaxing effects as 10mg of Valium without the side effects.
Although scientists are still on the early stages of analyzing CBN, the market’s already abuzz with the promise of a new way to reap the effects of hemp.
Possible Benefits of CBN
CBN is a potent sedative which results that rival pharmaceutical giants such as Valium and other diazepam-based medicine. Studies so far have shown that CBN has many potential benefits.
- Sedative: Early evidence of its potency date as far back as 1995 when preliminary tests in lab mice revealed that CBN could prolong deep sleep time, especially when combined with auxiliary cannabinoids.
- Appetite stimulant: While CBD is known for its appetite suppression effect, CBN appears to be working oppositely, according to tests run on lab mice.
- Antibacterial: Early research has shown that CBN is potent at fighting harmful bacteria, such as MRSA, an infection that is known for its resilience against antibiotics.
Although CBN is mainly regarded as a sedative that can improve mood, many other potential benefits are being studied.
CBN dosing
CBN is a potent sedative, you should always start on the low side and increase from there. The optimal dosage is one dropper of CBN oil about an hour before going to sleep. If that’s not enough, up the dosage by one dropper and adjust accordingly. CBN can be taken via a tincture, an edible, or in capsule form.
Some say the fastest way to feel the effects would be a dropper of CBN under the tongue since the active ingredient will enter the bloodstream immediately. Edibles and capsules are also acceptable, although CBN will have to pass through the liver and the digestive system before the user feels any effects.

CBN Research so far
Research on CBN is on its early stages, but early signs are encouraging. A 2008 study revealed that cannabinol has significant antibacterial effects. Perhaps the most eye-catching research was conducted by Steep Hill Labs.
What are the side effects of CBN
Unlike CBD, which is entirely non-psychoactive, CBN is mildly intoxicant (1/10th of THC). It would take an enormous dosage of CBN to feel the slightest amount of psychoactive effect.
Like all cannabinoids, CBN does have some side effects, especially to inexperienced users. Some of them are:
- Tiredness
- Drowsiness
- Dizziness
- Loss of appetite.
Although those effects are mostly mild, they can be easily reversed by cutting back on the dosage. Besides, the benefits of getting a good night’s sleep far outweigh the side effects, especially compared to pharmaceutical alternatives.
