Because this CBN oil is water soluble it is easily and quickly absorbed when placed under the tongue producing rapid and long-lasting results. Known to help with sleep issues, research suggests potential health benefits of this product include anti inflammatory properties, antibacterial properties and helping to promote relaxation.

• Hemp plant derived, non synthetic

• Each batch is tested by a 3rd party lab and results are available at Active CBD oil test result page.

What's the Difference: CBN vs CBD Oil?

Both CBN and CBD are a hemp extract of the cannabis sativa plant with many potential benefits. The cannabis sativa plant has many cannabinoids, over 100 compounds, many of which we haven't researched as yet. CBD and THC are considered to be major cannabinoids where CBN is considered to be a minor cannabinoid based on relative amounts found in the plant.

While cannabidiol (CBD) has been most popular and received more research in the recent past, cannabinol (CBN) is not far behind. Both compounds interact with the endocannabinoid system (ECS) but have different effects. The CBD compound has no psychoactive effects like THC; however, CBN is a breakdown product of THC and has some psychoactive properties although it's only 25% the strength of THC. It initially became popular as a way to identify aged cannabis plant - the higher the CBN, the older the plant. And then we realized that CBN has some unique properties of its own!

What are Effects of CBN?

CBN has many health benefits, some that are similar to CBD and others that are unique to cannabinol.

• CBN is best known for its sedating properties. The most current research shows that CBN, when combined with CBD and CBC, is as effective as melatonin as a sleep aid without the morning grogginess.

• Anti inflammatory properties: Much like CBD, CBN has been shown to have anti inflammatory properties by reducing the histamine response known to cause chronic and acute inflammation. While most of these studies have been in animal models we are hopeful that they translate to humans as well.

• Pain relief: CBN, particularly when combined with THC and other cannabinoids, has been shown to have peripheral analgesics properties similar to that of capsaicin and may be used to alleviate chronic and topical pain. In a 2019 study using a rat model, CBD and CBN used in conjunction were effective in relieving myofascial pain associated with TMJ disorders and fibromyalgia. For people who suffer from these disorders this combination could be invaluable as treatment.

• Neuroprotective Properties: Recent studies have shown cannabinol delays symptom onset without affecting survival in ALS patients as well as decreasing ocular hypertension(intraocular pressure) found in glaucoma.

• Bone Health: Our skeletal system also responds to endogenous as well as exogenous cannabinoids such as CBN to assist with bone formation, reduction in bone loss and improved healing.

• Antibacterial properties: Perhaps most exciting are the antibacterial properties of CBN products and various cannabinoids that are currently being researched. Some cannabinoids have been shown to be highly effective against Staph infections, in particular antibiotic resistant Staph or MRSA. This is truly amazing and an area of research that could have far-reaching impact on healthcare worldwide.

These are only a few of the most prominent known effects of CBN and research is still in the early stages. As we conduct more research we find more health benefits related to the cannabis plant.
