The best-known active ingredient of cannabis, tetrahydrocannabinol ( THC ), is known for its soporific effect – although this is not always necessarily the case.
The effect of the other cannabinoid most famous cannabidiol (CBD), in your sleep are the opinions of more divided.
This is, say the scientists, because the effect depends on the dose.
CBD and sleep
Ask ten patients how non-psychoactive cannabinoid CBD affects their sleep and the chance is that you get different stories.
Although there are few studies on this effect, shows a preliminary investigation cannabidiol has a significant effect on the sleep cycle, depending on the dose used.
These are five ways that CBD affects sleep.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-psychoactive dose-based cannabinoid that can have different effects on your sleep.
1. High dose of sedative CBD
Anyone who hopes to make up for sleep can better use high doses of CBD, research shows.
In 2013, a study was published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology that examined the effect of different doses of cannabidiol and placebo on rats.
Rodents were injected with the cannabinoid at doses of 2.5, 10 and 40 milligrams per kilogram of body weight.
However, it is worth mentioning that humans and rodents treating different CBDs and the effect of this dose for humans may be different from the results that rats experienced with them.
Rats with doses of 10 and 40 milligrams slept longer through the drug.
In the 40 mg group, however, it took longer before they ended up in REM sleep.
REM sleep (rapid eye movement) is the dream phase just before you wake up.
Some scientists believe that emotional memories are being treated at this stage.
In the 10 mg group, paradoxical sleep time was shortened.
For paradoxical sleep, a lighter sleep phase, a deeper non-REM sleep phase occurs.
This non-REM phase also became slightly longer in the 40mg group, but not too significant.
From this, we can conclude that the higher dose of CBD is more effective for sleeping more deeply.
2. Low dose of CBD gives energy
When higher doses of CBD oil are soothing, lower doses of cannabidiol provide energy.
A study earlier in 1977 showed that rodents who received a dose of 20 mg CBD remained shorter in the deep sleep phase.
According to the researchers, this suggests that CBD stimulates alertness.
However, this study also showed that the animals had an inverse effect at 40 mg, they stayed in deep sleep longer.
Vigilance has also decreased.
After receiving a high dose for 15 consecutive days, the test animals developed a tolerance for the drug.
3. CBD counteracts calming THC
According to another study, CBD can also counteract the soothing effect of tetrahydrocannabinol ( THC ).
For example, in 2014, when the results of this clinical study on the effect of CBD and THC on eight young adults were published in the Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology.
Small amounts of CBD stimulate alertness and inhibit the calming effect of THC.
In the double-blind placebo controlled trial, participants took 15 mg of THC, 5 mg of THC and CBD or a combination of 15 mg of THC and CBD in an oral spray before bed.
At the highest dose, the THC / CBD combination appeared to stimulate alertness rather than subside.
In the lower combination dose, phase 3 sleep has been shortened, the first phase of deep sleep.
This may indicate that CBD inhibits the sedative / narcotic effects of THC and stimulates alertness in people at these doses.
The 15 mg dose of THC did not have a negative effect on the sleep cycle.
4. High dose of CBD against insomnia
According to a 1981 study published in the Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, high doses of CBD help fight insomnia .
A 160 mg dose of CBD was, according to the publication, a more effective sedative than a placebo.
CBD to sleep? The more, the better.
This experiment had 15 participants, each receiving 40, 60 and 160 mg of CBD.
They also received a placebo and 5 mg of Nitrazepam sleeping aid, spread over a five-week period.
The 160 mg dose of CBD had a very positive effect on sleep and was associated with fewer sleep interruptions.
However, after such high doses of CBD, the participants managed to make fewer dreams.
5. Terpenen
Eating a mango can affect the effect of your THC extract or CBD.
Many of these studies have focused solely on isolated CBD extracts that are injected directly into the patient or administered orally.
However, a cannabis strain rich in CBD can have a different effect on sleep than a CBD isolate.
In the cannabis plant, in addition to cannabinoids such as CBD and THC, other substances can also affect sleep.
Many of these substances are aromatic chemicals, terpenes.
These give each plant a unique smell and taste, but also send off its medicinal effect.
Myrcene (also common in mangoes) and linalool (lavender) are two of the most dormant terpenes .
The release of taking these terpenes by e-liquid or simply eating a mango can also influence the effect of your THC or a CBD extract.
The presence of these substances in the CBD oil can contribute to the extent to which it induces sleep – or not.
This phenomenon, where a combination of these substances is more effective than an isolate is known as the surrounding effect.
The presence of THC in such an extract can further stimulate drowsiness caused by terpenes.

Meladol for sleep (combination of CBD oil, melatonin and vitamin B9
Cibdol’s Meladol provides a better night’s sleep with the hormone melatonin and CBD.
Meladol, Cibdol’s unique liposomal liquid formula generates a deep permeability of the active ingredient CBD into the tissue for a more structured and peaceful sleep.
Unlike pharmaceutical sleeping pills, Meladol contains natural ingredients for symptoms such as stress and insomnia.
Cibdol – Meladol: a strong liposomal formula to promote a quieter night’s rest
Sleep plays an incredibly important role in the successful development of humans.
Physical and mental functions depend on a healthy sleep cycle.
While sleep has been widely studied, the cycle of human sleep is influenced by many factors that can be problematic for many people.
Chronic sleep disorders can be a serious problem and, in some cases, can lead to extreme fatigue or memory loss.
Since we recognize the importance of a good night’s sleep for human functioning, Cibdol has created a new supplement to CBD – Meladol.
Meladol contains the active ingredient CBD and the natural hormone melatonin, and is therefore a completely natural way of promoting sleep.
WHAT IS MELATONIN ?
Melatonin has a variety of human health functions, including sleep-wake rhythm.
People produce the hormone melatonin naturally in the pineal gland.
The body’s biological clock influences the sleep-wake rhythm and determines the amount of melatonin produced by the body.
Melatonin levels rise naturally in the afternoon and decrease in the morning.
This ensures a healthy and normal night rest.
However, due to the blue light of the electronics screens, the production of melatonin is disrupted, making it difficult to sleep peacefully.
By taking melatonin supplements, you can ensure a longer and better sleep, regardless of blue light and other factors such as stress.
Meladol contains melatonin to slow down the sleep time, you fall asleep faster.
CBD AND LIPOSOMES
Meladol’s liposomal formula ensures that as much CBD as possible reaches cells and tissues, allowing you to achieve more effective results.
Liposomes are protective “bubbles” that carry the active ingredients along the membranes to the areas that need them.
CBD AND STRESS
A common cause of insomnia in people is stress.
Nowadays, you have to deal with an infinite number of internal and external stressors in your life. This makes it difficult for your body and mind to relax.
CBD (oil) has caused sedative effects, in which symptoms of physical and mental stress are avoided.
Although CBD does not always lead to sleep alone, it contributes to a firmer and calmer sleep and better REM sleep.
A lack of sleep weakens the body’s natural protection and can cause inflammation.
In this case, the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory functions of CBD can counteract an unhealthy sleep pattern.
WHAT’S MELADOL?
Meladol is an oral supplement in a convenient dropper bottle.
The product is a liposomal liquid that allows you, as a user, to accurately measure the maximum dosage of CBD and melatonin.
