It is thought that 1/3 of American adults, if not more, get less than the 8 hours of sleep that both doctors and scientists recommend every night. If you're one of them, you know first hand how detrimental that can be to your daily life. If it isn't cutting into your productivity, its affecting your mood and relationships. There are lots of treatments out there that work for some, however what about those of us who have found little to no luck with run-of-the-mill treatment?
Melatonin is a chemical that occurs naturally within the human body, and is one of the reasons we, as humans, get that drowsy feeling when it's time for bed. However, melatonin production can decrease with age, and a lack of melatonin is one of the common culprits behind insomnia. (Fun fact: Serotonin and Melatonin are actually "related". People who don't produce as much serotonin often have decreased melatonin production levels!)
Studies have shown that people who are having trouble sleeping, or staying asleep at night, may find luck with CBD due to it's relaxing properties. Melatonin is a common suggestion in order to help aid those who may find that their sleep cycle is disrupted, whether it be due to a lack of naturally occurring melatonin in their system or due to a high-stress environment. Of course, being that these two substances both show potential in helping someone sleep, it makes sense to pair them together.
