Sleep
Sleep is a physiological, reversible and cyclical condition, which is characterized by an activity and response to stimuli at a less intense level than wakefulness. Genetics has a major role in the quality of sleep of every individual, in combination with the individual’s activity throughout the day. Sleep takes up close to a third of a person’s life and is vital for bodily and mental health.
It seems that THC, in combination with CBD and different terpenes, can improve sleep. Researchers have come to the conclusion that CBD cannabinoid has therapeutic potential for treating insomnia oversleeping and THC can reduce the time of sleep and improve its quality.
Terpenes play quite a major role in the effects of cannabis, including its capacity to impact sleep. Studies have shown that terpenes can improve the effects of various cannabinoids, as well as directly influence the body in a number of ways. Terpenes are small and aromatic molecules in cannabis that provide its taste and smell.
Studies have shown that Indica strains are more effective in improving sleep. Individuals who suffer from sleep disorders and consume cannabis of the Indica type, experience a number of improvements including a major decline in disturbances during sleep , reduced probability that their sleep pattern will be disrupted and that they’ll wake up in the early hours, as well as improved sleep quality, without impacting sleep duration.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR YOU
Since your risk for sleep disorders is Slight, you are advised to consume cannabis in food. The impact is felt after a longer period of time compared to smoking or vaping, but its effects are more potent and they sometimes induce longer and more satisfactory sleep. Cannabinoids such as THC and CBD cause drowsiness and help treat insomnia. Science shows that terpenes influence sleep and wakefulness. For example, Myrcene is a terpene with sedative effects. Myrcene maintains a synergistic interaction with THC by allowing the THC to be absorbed at a higher rate by CB receptors. It has also been found that the terpenes caryophyllene and linalool may induce sleep. It is known that the less fresh cannabis is, the more it induces sleep. When THC matures, it changes its existing compounds and transforms some of them to a cannabinoid known as CBN. This cannabinoid was found to have a stronger psychoactive effect and is therefore five times more sleep-inducing than THC.
Most sleep disorders are related to a lack of CBD. In these cases, you should add CBD throughout the day. The quality of your sleep will improve by consuming THC at night.
For falling a sleep faster – consume THC. THC cannabinoid has been proven highly effective for inducing sleep.
With its potent sedative qualities, it can help you fall asleep faster. For a longer sleep – consume CBD. Due to CBD activity in your brain, it’s an ideal solution if you want to enjoy a long sleep. CBD uniquely works with the body’s endocannabinoid system by helping you sleep longer.
