The American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommends getting a minimum of seven hours of sleep per night. But data shows that approximately one in three adults don’t get enough sleep. Many have trouble falling asleep, staying asleep, or both. While there are prescription medications available to treat insomnia and sleep disorders, many cannabis consumers find that marijuana is helpful to get a good night’s rest. There are countless cannabis strains available to try, but not all are suited for use before bedtime. Typically, strains that are higher in THC tend to be more beneficial for those suffering from insomnia and other sleep disturbances. But for those who may be sensitive to THC, strains higher in CBD may be a better choice. The terpene profile is also helpful to look at when choosing a strain to help with sleep, as some have properties that can also help insomnia. Myrcene, for example, is a great terpene for those looking to ease sleep issues. Here are three popular strain choices for help getting to sleep and staying asleep.
