According to Scientists, CBD interacts with multiple receptors, proteins and other chemicals in the brain.Specific Neurotransmitters, hormones and other cells throughout the brain and body are positively affected by CBD. As these interactions occur, CBD influences many of our bodily functions including sleep/wake cycle, that's how CBD affects sleep.

CBD has been shown to decrease anxiety and give a "calming effect" for many people. This reduction in anxiety and other possible effects in turn help many people go to sleep and get better quality sleep. Research also shows CBD may increase sleep duration and reduce insomnia.
