Why CBD Gummies?

  • Ease and Precision: Each gummy contains a measured dose, so you know exactly how much you're getting—no messy oils, no guessing.

  • Dual Absorption: Chewing and holding under the tongue means both buccal and digestive uptake, leading to more reliable effects⎯—including stress reduction and relaxation.

  • Popular Outcomes: In a UK self-report study, 48% of people using CBD for sleep said they fell asleep faster, and 40% slept better overall.

What the Research Shows on Anxiety & Sleep

  • Anxiety Relief: Clinical studies support CBD’s potential to treat social anxiety, generalised anxiety, and PTSD-like conditions.

  • Stress & Relaxation: A growing body of user feedback and media reports highlights improved stress response and calmer moods—helpful for both bedtime and high-pressure days.

  • Sleep Support: Many users experience faster falling asleep and deeper rest. But controlled studies are sparse, and results may vary individually.

  • Limited Instant Impact: Gummies may take up to 2.5 hours to kick in, so it's best to take them well before bedtime or known stress points.
