• CBD Tincture and Sleep

    Posted by Mary Beth Skylis on February 5, 2020 at 6:00 am

    My Dad (diagnosed in 2013) has always slept lightly and for less time than average. So it didn’t seem surprising that his sleep would suffer after being diagnosed with Parkinsons. But I’ve wondered if a CBD tincture that’s designed for deep sleep could help him rest more peacefully. Have any of you used a CBD tincture that’s designed for sleep? Did you see benefits? How regularly did you use it?

    anyone has tried adjusting their CBD dosage or timing to see if that made a difference with sleep? I’ve noticed some people say evening works better, but others prefer taking it earlier in the day. Curious to hear what changes have worked (or not worked) for you all since then.

    I used to take a CBD tincture but it didn’t seem to help. I then tried a CDB-THC gummy that is 10mg of each. I take 1/4 of a gummy with my bedtime Crexont and have been averaging 7 hours per sleep per night.

    My husband had difficulty as well. He did use a cod/thc combo for a bit that definitely helped. I’d check magnesium levels as well. Finding a good magnesium supplement can help as well. The Huberman lab podcast has a great episode on sleep and I don’t see why it couldn’t work for a Parkinson’s patient as well. Best wishes.

    I’ve had better luck with sleep since I started using a CBD tincture regularly. I also ordered a few accessories from http://www.smokeday.com/ that make it easier to take it in the evenings. For me, a small amount before bed helps calm my body down without making me feel groggy in the morning. It took some experimenting with dose and timing, but it’s made a noticeable difference.

    My wife found a honey infused with 28 mg CBD. Dose is 1 teaspoon before bed but I take about a half and usually sleep 6 or 7 hours now.
