Best CBN Gummies

If you’ve been having trouble sleeping, you aren’t alone. Nearly 15% of adults in the U.S. report difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep most days.1 Whether it’s due to stress, life circumstances, insomnia, shift work, or any other cause, sleep deprivation can have a profound effect on your day-to-day life.2 3

For this reason, many people seek solutions to help them achieve restful, consistent sleep. One option that’s recently started to grow in popularity is CBN gummies. CBN, or cannabinol, is often referred to as “the sleepy cannabinoid.”4 But does it really live up to the hype?

In our guide to the best CBN gummies, we cover the research, efficacy, safety, and other details behind these products to help you determine if they’re right for you.

Over the past two decades, Innerbody Research has helped tens of millions of readers make more informed decisions involving staying healthy and living healthier lifestyles.

For our guide to the best CBN gummies, we spent over 75 hours reading through dozens of scientific papers, studies, and reviews to learn how this minor cannabinoid works, if it’s safe, what it may help, who it’s for, and more. Our team also researched the competitive landscape to see which companies and their products stood out among the rest. We then purchased the most promising CBN gummies and tried them ourselves to bring you hands-on details that only actual customers could know.

Additionally, like all health-related content on this website, this review was thoroughly vetted by one or more members of our Medical Review Board for accuracy. As more about CBN is discovered, we’ll update this page accordingly.

As with any supplemental product, we examined CBN gummies using criteria that we felt were most important to consumers seeking information. In this case, these included the product’s safety, effectiveness, cost, convenience, and — since these are gummies — their taste.

Let’s review how each product fared.

Safety

Winner: Slumber Deep Zzzs

All four of our top picks for CBN gummies have manufacturers that go to great lengths to ensure customer safety. Each product is third-party safety tested, and the companies allow customers to easily find and read through their certificates of analysis (CoAs). However, Slumber Deep Zzzs eked out a victory in this category by being the only one of the bunch to check off all the boxes in our safety checklist, detailed in the chart below.

We feel it’s worth pointing out that only our picks from Slumber and Green Roads are free from most potential allergens. Also, while none of our choices are certified organic, three of the four are at least made with some organic ingredients. Overall, though, each one of our picks takes commendable steps to make sure consumers remain safe.

For more information on the safety of CBN itself, see the section titled “Is CBN safe?” later on in this guide.

Effectiveness

Winner: Slumber Deep Zzzs

Similar to safety, all of our top picks should be generally effective. But Slumber Deep Zzzs earned the top spot in this category due to being the only one of the bunch to be investigated in a sleep study. While the results of Slumber’s study aren’t published in any journals, the company notes that after 21 days of taking Deep Zzzs gummies:

• 71% of participants agreed the product improved their sleep quality and patterns
• 82% agreed the product helped them stay asleep
• 80% stated it was easier to fall back asleep after waking
• 71% said they felt more refreshed in the morning
• Participants had, on average, 72 more minutes of sleep per night

Though we’d prefer to see studies published in scientific journals and conducted independently, often this type of research on specific products wouldn’t exist if the manufacturer didn’t make it happen themselves. And since CBN research on humans — and in general — is rather difficult to come by, we do appreciate Slumber’s efforts here.

Concerning the published research on CBN, those investigating the substance for sleep have shown mixed results, but some more recent studies have been positive. A 2023 human study found that CBN reduced instances of sleep disturbance, while a 2024 study on rats resulted in longer total sleep time and less overnight wakefulness.4 5

Research on CBN combined with other active ingredients is even more limited, but one study found that CBN mixed with either CBD, THC, or melatonin all improved subjects’ sleep quality and duration. The authors note that no combination performed statistically better than 5mg of melatonin alone,6 but if you’re looking to avoid melatonin, this data does suggest that the other CBN combinations appear to work just as well.

On the topic of CBN and ingredient combinations, our top picks contain the following active ingredients:

• Slumber Deep Zzzs: CBN, CBD, THC
• Koi Complete Nighttime Rest: CBN, CBD, THC
• Charlotte’s Web Stay Asleep Gummy: CBN
• Green Roads Sleepy Zs: CBN, CBD, melatonin

Based on what the aforementioned research suggests, all of our CBN gummy picks have the potential to be effective in helping you sleep.

For more information on how CBN works and what else it might be able to do, we cover that under the “How does CBN work?” section.

Cost

Winner: Koi Complete Nighttime Rest

If you’ve ever purchased hemp or cannabis products, then you’re probably all too aware of how pricey they can be. Koi Complete Nighttime Rest won our pick for cost due to its low up-front cost and price per serving, but Charlotte’s Web comes in a close second.

Choosing Koi as the winner could be a bit confusing if you check the price for that product versus our pick from Charlotte’s Web — the latter is about $10 cheaper. However, Charlotte’s Web fails to explicitly mention that every Stay Asleep Gummy dose is two gummies. This means that the 30-count bottle you’d be spending $29 on only gets you 15 servings. In contrast, Koi’s Complete Nighttime Rest requires you to take one gummy per serving, meaning you get 30 servings per $39 bottle. Let’s break down the cost per serving between the two:

• Koi Complete Nighttime Rest: $39 total, or $1.33 per serving
• Charlotte’s Web Stay Asleep Gummy (30-count): $29 total, or $1.93 per serving

So, despite a lower up-front cost, Charlotte’s Web Stay Asleep Gummy (30-count) actually costs you more over time than Koi Complete Nighttime Rest.

The biggest drawback with Koi, however, is that there’s no subscription option available — and no subscription discount. If you subscribe to Charlotte’s Web and buy the 30-count, that drops the price down to about $21, or $1.40 per serving. That puts it pretty close to Koi, but you’ll still need to purchase two bottles of the 30-count Charlotte’s Web Stay Asleep Gummies per month to cover you for the same amount of time as one purchase of Koi.

The only way to get an equivalent number of servings per container from Charlotte’s Web is to purchase the 60-count option for $45 or $31.49 with a subscription. Only with that subscription does it finally manage to beat Koi’s up-front and per-serving costs.

Our other two picks, Slumber Deep Zzzs and Green Roads Sleepy Zs, are quite a bit more expensive — they come in at $60 and $50, respectively, for a one-time purchase, but subscriptions can greatly soften the cost burden. Nonetheless, those high one-time purchase prices prevented either of them from winning this criterion.

Convenience

Winner: Charlotte’s Web Stay Asleep Gummy

Though all of our top picks are relatively convenient, Charlotte’s Web takes the crown in this category by having the most uncomplicated guarantee of the bunch and the most subscription shipping intervals.

Here’s how our picks compare for convenience:

As you can see, only Charlotte’s Web has no additional requirements that you’re supposed to meet before the company gives you a refund. As its policy states, “If you are not satisfied with any of these products, simply return the unused portion of the product.” In contrast, Green Roads only guarantees unopened products, Koi requires you to have used no more than half of the product, and Slumber needs you to try the product for at least two weeks beforehand — and the company may actually have you try other doses first before finally giving you your money back.

In terms of subscription shipping intervals, Charlotte’s Web offers the most options, but Green Roads comes pretty close. Slumber’s intervals, while not as flexible, are fairly standard for a subscription program. Koi, on the other hand, is the only one of our picks that doesn’t offer a subscription option at all. Not only does this eliminate the potential for additional savings, but it reduces the overall convenience of the product.

However, when it comes to actually taking the products, all of our picks are equally convenient due to being gummies. If you have a hard time chewing gummies, though, Slumber may be the ideal pick for you because they’re particularly soft (similar to Jell-O in texture) and actually melt in your mouth.

Taste

Winner: Green Roads Sleepy Zs

Edible cannabis products tend to be on the bitter side, and since not everyone is a big fan of the earthy flavor that often accompanies them, the taste of our top picks is something we felt was well worth considering. Overall, they all manage to mask a majority of any unpleasant bitterness, but Green Roads Sleepy Zs do the best job.

According to our testers, Green Road Sleepy Zs taste more like you’re eating a small cube of blackberry jam than a supplemental gummy. Slumber Deep Zzzs came in a close second for taste, but they have a strong “skunk-like” odor that can taint the initial flavor experience. (Here, we also acknowledge that taste preferences vary; some cannabinoid gummy buyers enjoy that skunky aroma.) Our picks from Koi and Charlotte’s Web taste pretty good to us, as well, but the other two products stood out to our testers.

The chart below offers a quick comparison of several major details of our top CBN gummy choices, including pricing, subscriptions, flavors, guarantee policies, and more.

Note: Except for the cost per serving, the prices in the chart are rounded up to the nearest dollar.

CBN is the initialism for “cannabinol,” a non-psychoactive cannabinoid.7 Cannabinoids are the biologically active compounds derived primarily from the Cannabis sativa plant. Unlike CBD, for example, CBN isn’t made by the plant; rather, it’s a product of THC degradation.8 This means that CBN concentrations are highest in aged cannabis products.9

Most early research on cannabinoids was focused on the “major cannabinoids” or the “big four,” which include:9

• THC (tetrahydrocannabinol)
• CBD (cannabidiol)
• CBG (cannabigerol)
• CBC (cannabichromene)

However, cannabis plants can produce more than 150 other compounds known as “minor cannabinoids,” which have only recently started to garner attention from the scientific community.9 CBN falls under this category. From neuroprotection and anti-inflammatory effects to antimicrobial activity, pain relief, better sleep, and more, this “minor” cannabinoid seemingly has the potential to provide major benefits.4 7

Of course, it’s worth mentioning that the current research on CBN has been mainly done using animal or cell models or is simply based on the compound's chemical structure and what that suggests it can do. So a significant amount of high-quality human research is needed before anyone can fully confirm or deny these benefits. For now, the existing data is promising. We cover it in more detail under the “How does CBN work?” section later on.

Is CBN legal?

At the time of this writing, yes, CBN is generally legal to purchase and use in the United States — as long as it’s derived from hemp and has a THC concentration that is less than 0.3% on a dry weight basis.10

However, the legality of CBN products varies depending on the state you reside in due to stricter laws regarding hemp or cannabis. For example, Slumber Deep Zzzs can’t be shipped to Idaho or West Virginia, and Koi Complete Nighttime Rest can’t be sent to California or Oregon. Our other top picks — Charlotte’s Web and Green Roads — don’t note any shipping restrictions on their CBN products.

Like other cannabinoids, cannabinol (CBN) should be safe for healthy adults ages 25 and up who aren’t currently pregnant or breastfeeding.

CBN is most often promoted as a way to help people sleep better throughout the night,5 but recent research suggests that it may also relieve muscle pain or inflammation.7 11 With 14.5% of U.S. adults reporting trouble sleeping,1 20.9% experiencing chronic pain,12 and 34.63% dealing with systemic inflammation, a good portion of people may find some benefit from trying CBN.13

Who should look elsewhere?

While CBN may be a viable option for a large population of people, there are still some who may wish to — or need to — look elsewhere for their concerns. This includes but isn’t limited to:14

• Those who are pregnant or breastfeeding
• People under the age of 25
• Individuals taking opioids, NSAIDs, benzodiazepines, or anticholinergic medications15
• Those with a family or personal history of psychotic disorders (e.g., schizophrenia)
• People with liver conditions
• Residents of some states (depending on the manufacturer or the ingredients, some CBN products can’t be sent to certain states)

If you’re interested in learning about some potential CBN alternatives, we detail a few options — like ashwagandha supplements — under the “Alternatives to CBN gummies” section later in this guide.

Since CBN research is very much still in its infancy, it’s difficult to make a blanket yes or no statement regarding its safety. However, like many other cannabinoids, CBN should be generally safe for healthy adults aged 25 and older who aren’t pregnant or breastfeeding.14 But even if you meet the criteria completely, you should always ask your doctor first before starting any new supplements.

Also, as we mentioned in the previous section, there are some populations who should avoid CBN, such as:14

• Those taking NSAIDs, opioids, benzodiazepines, or anticholinergic medications (CBN could interact with them)15
• People with a family or personal history of psychotic disorders (CBN might exacerbate symptoms)
• Individuals with liver conditions (CBN may elevate certain liver enzymes)

Now, it’s worth noting that these warnings are for cannabinoids as a whole, not solely CBN. But, again, since research on CBN in humans — and in general — is so sparse, it’s better to play it safe. As more high-quality studies are conducted and the scientific community’s knowledge of CBN and its safety grows, we’ll update this guide accordingly.

Based on the studies that do exist, CBN doesn’t appear to cause any significant adverse effects. Multiple studies and reviews state that CBN has a “good safety” profile and that there’s “no suggestion of systematic effects” concerning it.16 17 In fact, researchers from one 1973 study encouraged its healthy, human male volunteers to “receive the largest amount of [intravenous] CBN they could ‘comfortably tolerate,’” yet no subjects dropped out and they ultimately reported the experience to be “mild and enjoyable.”17 18

In a 2023 human study examining the safety and effectiveness of CBN with and without CBD for sleep, the authors report that there “were no deaths or [adverse effects] leading to study discontinuation in any treatment group.”5 The occurrence of nonserious side effects was similar to that of the placebo group and included symptoms like drowsiness (6.8% of participants), headache (4.8%), sleep difficulties (4.8%), and dysgeusia — an altered sense of taste (3.4%).5

Finally, a 2023 proof-of-concept study document explains how some of the older studies on CBN from the 1970s and 1980s used daily oral doses of up to 1,200mg for around a month at a time. While this research didn’t examine factors like sleep, sedation, or next-day effects on cognitive function, there “were no notable safety concerns, aberrations, or toxicity concerns from these studies.”19 Of course, over a gram of CBN daily is quite a lot, and we recommend only taking the amount of CBN the product manufacturer — and your doctor — says you should.

To put it simply, CBN is a cannabinoid — an active component of the cannabis plant — that affects certain receptors in the body.20

These receptors are usually broken down into two types:21 22

• Cannabinoid 1 receptor (CB1): primarily located in the brain and nervous system, but can also be found throughout the body
• Cannabinoid 2 receptor (CB2): mainly found in the body’s peripheral and immune tissues, as well as the gastrointestinal system, but has also been discovered to a lesser extent in the brain23

CB1 and CB2 receptors are part of the body’s endocannabinoid system, which controls and regulates a wide range of functions — memory and learning, sleep, body temperature, processing emotions, pain response, and more. And different cannabinoids affect these receptors in different ways.20

According to researchers,24 CBN has a “higher affinity” for CB2 receptors than CB1 receptors, which is why it isn’t psychoactive.25 In contrast, THC affects CB1 receptors more intensely — stimulating the CB1 receptors in the brain is what leads to the “high” feeling from THC.9 20

CB2 receptors play a role in regulating eye pressure, gut motility, immune functioning, and intestinal inflammation, among other things.20 26 Researchers are also investigating the CB2 receptor as a “therapeutic target” for conditions like neuropathic pain and Alzheimer’s disease.23

On the other hand, as explained by Dr. Peter Grinspoon, MD, an instructor at Harvard Medical School, CB1 receptors “act like traffic cops to control the levels and activity of most of the other neurotransmitters.” By being in control of the other neurotransmitters in your brain, CB1 receptors are able to modulate or adjust things like your hunger, alertness, and body temperature as necessary.20

Having less of an effect on CB1 receptors doesn’t mean CBN has no effect. On the contrary, the fact that CBN may improve various aspects of sleep suggests that it does have some effect — it’s just not as strong as one caused by some other cannabinoids.4 5

The potential benefits of CBN

As mentioned earlier in this guide, there hasn’t been all that much recent research dedicated to CBN, and most of the existing studies are older or have mainly been done on animal or cell models. This means that there are currently no confirmed benefits of CBN, but there is definitely some promising data out there that’s worth going over. Below, we break down what existing studies (both old and new) suggest CBN may be able to do.

Best CBN gummy for most people

Slumber is a company that, according to its website, was founded with the mission of helping people get a good night’s sleep. Despite how it started out, the company currently offers gummies, tinctures, and topicals aimed at supporting a wide range of goals outside of just better sleep. However, the star product at Slumber is still its Deep Zzzs gummies — it’s the very first product you see when you visit the website.

Deep Zzzs are made using full-spectrum hemp extract. This means that, unlike Charlotte’s Web Stay Asleep Gummies, which use a CBN isolate, Deep Zzzs contain all of the naturally occurring components of the cannabis plant, including THC.35

While more research is needed, some experts believe that full-spectrum extracts benefit from what’s known as the “entourage effect.”36 Basically, it’s hypothesized that using the whole cannabis plant — and all of its components — brings about more benefits than just using an isolated part. More research is needed, but as noted in a 2023 review, advocates suggest it could be why “many patients experience an overall better effect from full-spectrum products.”37

Our picks from Slumber and Koi are the only two of the bunch to use full-spectrum extracts. Green Roads uses broad-spectrum, which is similar to full-spectrum but without nearly as much THC.35 And Charlotte’s Web, as mentioned, uses a CBN isolate, which is just pure CBN with no other cannabis plant components.

Another of Slumber’s qualities that bode well for its potential effectiveness is that it was investigated in a sleep study of over 500 participants that resulted in positive outcomes. Participants took Deep Zzzs for 21 days and then logged their sleep quality and satisfaction. Over 70% of participants reported feeling more refreshed in the morning, 82% agreed the product helped them sleep, and 80% said it was easier to fall back asleep when they did wake up.

In our experience with Slumber Deep Zzzs, our tester with insomnia found that these gummies did help them fall asleep faster and wake up less frequently during the night.

Taste-wise, Deep Zzzs have a pleasant lemon-raspberry flavor that covers up a good portion of the typical hemp earthiness, but they do have a fairly strong “skunky” odor that takes some getting used to. We’re unsure if this smell is typical of Deep Zzzs or if it’s just our batch, but it’s still something to be mindful of.

Pricing and satisfaction guarantee

Slumber Deep Zzzs are, unfortunately, the most expensive of our top picks if you choose to buy them as one-time purchases. However, subscriptions take a decent amount of money off your purchase and make Deep Zzzs comparable in price to our other choices. Here’s how the details pan out:

• One-time purchase: $60 ($2.00 per serving)
• Subscription (30% off): $42 ($1.40 per serving)

Additionally, Slumber subscriptions include free shipping; normally, you’d have to spend over $75 to reach the free-shipping threshold.

If you aren’t a fan of your Deep Zzzs, Slumber has a 30-day satisfaction guarantee, similar to our other picks. However, this guarantee applies only to your first purchase of a product, and the company requires customers to try the product for at least two weeks before initiating a refund. The guarantee policy also notes that “after consultation from our CBN Experts, it may also be recommended to increase the dosage by 5-10 mg.” This means that customers may be required to try the product for even longer (or they’ll just have to wait longer) before a refund is given. In contrast, Charlotte’s Web has a straightforward guarantee that simply requires you to return any unused portion of your product — and that’s it.

Best budget CBN gummy

Koi is a brand that specializes in everything from hemp products to mushrooms, kratom, and more. Unlike Slumber, which was founded with the focus of helping people sleep better, Koi aims to support overall wellness. Of course, part of improving your well-being includes getting a good night’s sleep — and that’s where Koi Complete Nighttime Rest comes into play.

Like Slumber Deep Zzzs, Complete Nighttime Rest is a full-spectrum product; it contains CBN, CBD, and THC.35 This means it may also benefit from the entourage effect we discussed under the section dedicated to Deep Zzzs. Since it’s suggested that the entourage effect may help full-spectrum hemp products to perform better, either Deep Zzzs or Complete Nighttime Rest may be best for those with particular difficulty falling asleep.36 37

These gummies are the only ones of our top picks that come in different flavors. Currently, they’re available in Orange Cream and Black Cherry. Our testing team purchased the Black Cherry variety and found them to be tasty enough; they have a bit of a tart flavor that blends rather well with the earthiness of the hemp.

One of our testers did have a mildly negative reaction to this product; it seemed to have interacted with one of their medications and caused a bit of a blood pressure drop. This is why it’s very important to make sure you speak with a doctor before starting a new supplement — you never know what could react poorly with a medication or condition. It’s worth mentioning that none of our other testers had a bad reaction to this product, and it should be generally safe for most healthy adults (who aren’t pregnant or breastfeeding).

Pricing and guarantee

Despite not having a subscription plan, Koi Complete Nighttime Rest is our pick for the best CBN gummy for those on a budget. For one-time purchases, it has the lowest price per serving of our top picks, and it’s the only option of the group to offer a savings program (Koi Cares) for military personnel, medical professionals, law enforcement, and those in need. This program gives eligible customers 25% off each purchase. Koi is also the only company in this guide to allow customers to pay in four interest-free installments. With all these details in mind, you can see why we chose Koi as the best option for people on a budget.

Here’s how the pricing works out (both flavors cost the same):

• One-time purchase: $39.99 ($1.33 per serving)
• With Koi Cares 25% off discount: $29.99 ($1.00 per serving)
• Paying in installments: $10 every two weeks ($1.33 per serving)

Like our other picks, Koi offers a 30-day guarantee. Similar to Slumber, however, some conditions need to be met. Your returned product must be at least 50% (or half) full and pass an inspection for a refund to be provided.

Best CBN isolate gummy

Charlotte’s Web is a wellness brand that sells mainly hemp products. The company focuses largely on doing good for the environment and for individuals in need of support. Currently, Charlotte’s Web only offers one CBN product, Stay Asleep, and it’s our pick for the best CBN isolate gummy.

If you would like to — or need to — avoid THC entirely, then isolate extract products are a good option. While you may typically hear “isolate” in reference to CBD products, it simply means that the item only contains the named cannabinoid.35 In this case, it’s CBN.

Each serving of Stay Asleep is two gummies, while our other picks only require you to take one. This means that every bottle of Stay Asleep is basically cut in half (i.e., the bottle may say “30 gummies,” but it only has 15 servings). You could technically only take one gummy, but that may not always be enough to promote the sleep you need, especially since isolate products don’t benefit from the potential entourage effect. (And research suggests that 20mg of CBN isolate, the dose in two Stay Asleep gummies, is the ideal amount for sleep.)5

When it comes to actually eating the gummies, these are the chewiest of our picks, which is worth keeping in mind if you have difficulty chewing due to something like TMJ concerns. Stay Asleep gummies do have a nice huckleberry flavor, but they are a bit on the bitter side.

Pricing and guarantee details

Out of our top picks, Charlotte’s Web has the most complicated pricing due to having three different size options available. The chart below breaks down the details.

Additionally, while the guarantee policy is the same length as our other picks — 30 days — Charlotte’s Web has the most straightforward policy of any company in this guide. All you need to do is contact customer service and then send back any remaining product you have within 30 days of delivery. Unlike our other picks, there aren’t any other requirements that need to be met.

Best CBN gummy with added melatonin

Green Roads, similar to Koi, is a company with offerings that go beyond just hemp products. Whether you’re looking for cannabinoids, mushroom-based nootropics, kava kava, or even something to help your pet, Green Roads just may have it. The product we’re focusing on today, however, is the company’s Sleepy Zs gummies.

Unlike our other top picks, the CBN in Green Roads Sleepy Zs plays more of a supporting role than a main part, but it’s still a worthwhile inclusion that may promote less overnight wakefulness.4 5 Sleepy Zs are made using broad-spectrum extracts, which are similar to full-spectrum but are “nearly THC-free.”35

The THC content is low enough that it isn’t mentioned on the Sleepy Zs product label, but there’s still the risk that it could show up on a drug test, so those who really need to avoid THC should probably stick to isolate products like Charlotte’s Web Stay Asleep Gummies. Also, broad-spectrum products may benefit somewhat from the entourage effect, but not as strongly as full-spectrum ones.

Out of the four picks in this guide, our tester with insomnia had the best results with Slumber Deep Zzzs, but Green Roads Sleepy Zs were a close second. Really, all of our testers found that each of the products helped to promote better sleep, but for insomnia specifically, Slumber’s and Green Roads’ products stood out. It’s worth mentioning that only Green Roads’ occasionally caused a bit of a brief “hangover” feeling the next morning, likely due to the melatonin content. It did fade away relatively quickly, though.

Taste-wise, Sleepy Zs were our testers’ favorite. Though the label on the jar says “mixed berry,” the website describes the flavor as “blackberry” — and our testers were inclined to believe the latter was the true flavor. Out of our top picks, the fruity flavor of these gummies does the best job of masking the bitter earthiness of hemp.

Pricing information and guarantee details

Green Roads, similar to Charlotte’s Web, offers a couple of different size options for its Sleepy Zs gummies. Currently, there are two to choose from: a 30-count and a 10-count. The 10-count is more like a sample pack, but it could also be a good option for travel. Here’s how the pricing works out:

In terms of the company’s “guarantee” policy, it doesn’t feel like much of a guarantee. The 30-day policy only covers “new and unopened products.” If you can’t even try the product first, it doesn’t feel like the guarantee is worth very much to customers.

Depending on your reason for investigating CBN gummies, there may be more than one alternative out there that could help you just as much — if not more. So, in this section, we’ll give a quick overview of three other types of products that may interest you.

CBD products

While nearly all of our top CBN gummy picks contain some CBD, you might benefit more from a product that focuses solely on this cannabinoid instead. Like CBN, CBD may be able to help you get a better night’s sleep, among other things. This popular, non-psychoactive cannabinoid has demonstrated the ability to help those with insomnia fall asleep and stay asleep,38 39 which may be partially due to CBD’s seemingly positive effects on pain and anxiety.40 41

If you’re interested in learning more about CBD for these concerns, you can read our guide to the best CBD for sleep or our guide to the best CBD for anxiety.

Ashwagandha supplements

If cannabis products don’t sound like the solution for your needs, a botanical like ashwagandha may be a good alternative. This plant is best known for its ability to relieve anxiety,42 but it may also be able to help you get better sleep,43 improve cognitive function,44 and more. Ashwagandha owes these potential benefits to its withanolide content.45 Similar to cannabinoids in cannabis or hemp products, withanolides are the active component in ashwagandha.

For more information on ashwagandha and our top supplement recommendations, check out our full guide on the topic.

Amanita muscaria gummies

Though they’ve just recently entered the mainstream, Amanita muscaria mushroom gummies — similar to cannabis products — may be able to help with a wide range of concerns. In particular, one of the substances found in Amanita muscaria, muscimol, has shown potential as an anxiolytic, a sleep aid,46 an anti-inflammatory,47 and a way to lessen neuropathic pain.48 Studies have mainly been in animals, so more human research is needed, but the current data is promising.
