Over the past couple years, CBD has taken over the wellness industries with various products from edibles and drops to oils, topicals and beyond.
Now, let’s welcome a new cannabis-derived compound that is soon to become just as popular. This new product is beneficial in its own ability to help with a good night’s sleep and help regulate the immune system.
Welcome, Cannabinol (CBN) aka C21H26O2.
What is CBN?
CBN is a cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant that can be used effectively as a sleep aid or sedative. CBN is the result of when THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is heated and exposed to oxygen (co2) or degraded due to age, heat or light.
“CBN and CBD are both cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant, but they have different chemical structures” explains Dr. Elizabeth Ardillio, Direction of Medical Education at Green Thumb Industries.
Benefits of CBN
Similar to using CBD products, CBN has benefits that include:
- improved sleep quality
- pain relief
- seizures
- anti-inflammatory
- antibacterial
- neuroprotectant
- appetite stimulation
All the details
After consuming CBN, the average consumer can expect to feel the effects within 30-180 minutes. It is important to remember to not take another dose of CBN because you are not feeling any effects right away. Understanding how these products work is important to remain healthy and safe.
CBN does have mild psychoactive effects unlike CBD products, but it will not feel like a high you would receive from THC products. Dr. Elizabeth Ardillio says, “If you’ve never consumed cannabis before or it’s been a while, you are more likely to feel a sense of euphoria”. Once you become comfortable and begin to build a tolerance, you can increase the amount of THC.
Currently, CBN is legal under the 2018 Farm Bill. This means that you can only purchase CBN products in states where recreational marijuana use is legal or where a licensed medical professional can provide you with a prescription.
