Sleep Support for Women During Menopause: CBD & CBN Gummies

Share:

For many women navigating menopause, restful sleep becomes elusive. Between hormonal fluctuations, increased anxiety, and the physical changes happening in your body, getting quality rest can feel like an uphill battle. That's why we were touched to receive this review from one of our customers:

"Wonderful gummies that really work! As a menopausal woman I take other meds for sleep but if I've had a particularly anxiety-ridden day, these gummies are helpful to have.... alone or to add to your sleep med regime. No matter what kind of day I've had, one of these will send me to sleep and I don't wake up in the middle of the night." - Natasha B. Verified Buyer

Her experience highlights something we've heard from many women: the need for natural, effective sleep support that works with your existing routine.

Why Menopause Disrupts Sleep

During menopause, declining estrogen and progesterone levels affect more than just your reproductive system. These hormonal changes can disrupt your body's natural sleep-wake cycle, increase anxiety, and make it harder to achieve deep, restorative sleep. Research shows that there's a complex interplay between the endocannabinoid system and the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, and an intricate crosstalk between the ECS and steroid hormone production and secretion, suggesting why many women find cannabinoid-based sleep aids helpful during this transition.

How CBD and CBN Support Better Sleep

Our Sleep Gummies combine CBD and CBN – two natural compounds that work with your body's own sleep regulation system to promote relaxation and rest. Your body naturally produces compounds that help regulate your sleep-wake cycle, with levels that rise and fall throughout the day. Research shows these natural sleep compounds are highest when you wake up and lowest just before bedtime, indicating your body has its own built-in system for managing sleep. CBD and CBN work by supporting this natural system, helping to enhance your body's ability to relax and transition into restful sleep.

CBD helps by potentially reducing anxiety and promoting mental calmness. Studies suggest it may support the body's natural ability to manage stress and create conditions more conducive to sleep.

CBN is often called the "sleepy cannabinoid." Research suggests CBN may have sedative properties, and studies indicate that CBN can help support more restful sleep by potentially reducing sleep disturbances throughout the night.

Together, these cannabinoids work alongside our carefully selected botanicals – magnesium, chamomile, and valerian root – to create a comprehensive approach to sleep support that's gentle yet effective.

A Natural Addition to Your Sleep Routine

What we love about our customer's review is how she describes using our gummies both independently and as part of her existing sleep routine. This flexibility is exactly what we designed them for – to be a natural tool in your sleep wellness toolkit.

Whether you're dealing with the occasional restless night or looking for consistent support during your menopause journey, our melatonin-free formula offers a plant-based approach that works with your body's natural processes.

Every woman's experience with menopause is unique, and finding the right combination of support is deeply personal. If you're struggling with sleep during this transition, consider giving our Sleep Gummies a try. Like our reviewer discovered, sometimes the right natural support can make all the difference in getting the restful sleep you deserve.
