There are over 100 cannabinoids in hemp and cannabis plants. Delta-9 THC, known for producing the “high” that comes along with marijuana use, and CBD, which has been recognized in recent years for its multitude of possible health benefits, are the two cannabinoids that receive the most mainstream attention. However, there are many cannabinoids which are naturally found in smaller amounts that carry their own potentially positive effects. For instance, CBN, or cannabinol, has been shown to treat symptoms of certain conditions, such as insomnia. In fact, the scientific evidence that has been gathered in recent years indicates that CBN may be an effective sleep aid! Learn more about the potential health benefits of CBN below!
What is CBN?
CBN is one of the compounds that are found naturally in hemp plants called cannabinoids. When delta-9 THC is exposed to heat, light, or air, it produces CBN. Since CBN only appears in relatively small amounts, scientists use an oxidation technique to manufacture larger amounts of CBN by converting delta-9 THC. Similar to how CBD acts on the body's endocannabinoid system (ECS), CBN also does. CBN binds to CB2 receptors, which are essential to the central nervous system. The benefits of CBN are thought to stem from these interactions.
What Are the Benefits of CBN?
There are many potential CBN health benefits. CBN has been shown to possess inherent anti-inflammatory qualities, which makes it a potentially useful pain reliever. Some research has also indicated that it may be able to lessen persistent pain. Because of its calming qualities, a lot of scientists think CBN might possibly be used as a sleep aid. For this reason, it is advised that clients avoid using CBN when they are seeking for uplifting benefits, such as an energy boost. CBN is not a psychoactive cannabinoid, which means that it does not get users "high," unlike delta-9 THC. Alternatively, CBN can be used to treat conditions like glaucoma, sleeplessness, and chronic discomfort. These are just a few of the many potential wellness benefits of CBN.
