Calm Nights with CBD Gummies

CBD Gummies are one of the most popular products to come from the recent CBD craze. CBD gummies for sleep are a tasty, chewy candy that contains cannabidiol (CBD), an essential oil that is found in hemp and marijuana. CBD extracts the benefits of cannabis without the THC, allowing consumers to receive medical benefits but not suffer from psychoactive effects. The calming properties of these gummies make them a great way to unwind after a long day or use them as a sleep aid.

Gummy bears have been around for decades and were chosen by many because they resemble small children’s toys more than anything else, so it makes sense that this edible product would be marketed to kids who have ailments such as ADHD and trouble sleeping. These CBD gummies are the perfect medicine to help children wind down and get a good night’s rest or focus during the day without interfering with their development and growth.

CBD Gummies vs. Edibles

There has been an increased interest in edible products lately, due in part to natural products such as CBD gummies, but also because edibles provide longer-lasting effects than smoking or vaporizing cannabis. Cannabidiol (CBD) is not water-soluble so it must be extracted from cannabis flowers using a method such as CO2 extraction before turning it into the oil. Once the liquid form of CBD is ready, it can be added to almost any food source including butter and oils which can then be used for cooking. This process is the foundation of creating edible products.

There are many benefits to CBD gummies over orally consumed edibles. A lot of edibles come in baked goods, which can dry out your mouth and not taste very good either. CBD gummies on the other hand are soft, chewy, fruity candies that don’t require any work or baking skills whatsoever so they are extremely easy to make at home. All you need is a batch of regular flavored gelatin mix and some store-bought fruit juice.  The only thing you have to do is add cannabidiol (CBD) oil which can be done by melting it with coconut oil until it’s liquefied then adding it into the mixture before pouring it into a candy mold and waiting for it to set.
