About TruCBN™

What is TruCBN™?

TruCBN™ is a specialty cannabinol (CBN) ingredient developed by FloraWorks. CBN is a natural compound found in cannabis and hemp plants. Unlike THC, CBN is non-psychoactive and is renowned for its potential to enhance sleep quality. CBN interacts with the endocannabinoid system in the body, which plays a crucial role in regulating various physiological processes, including sleep. What makes FloraWorks TruCBN™ different is that it is an ultra-pure form that has been clinically validated to improve sleep and has had rigorous safety studies done.

How effective is TruCBN™ at improving sleep?

TruCBN™ has been shown to significantly improve sleep quality with at least or greater impact than melatonin in a clinical trial. A double-blind, placebo-controlled study tested TruCBN for overall effectiveness at improving sleep, optimal dose, and comparability to melatonin.  This study included over 1,000 participants experiencing minor sleep difficulties and found significant improvements in sleep duration and quality compared to placebo. 50mg of TruCBN™ was found to have the highest improvement in sleep quality vs. 25mg and 100mg, 50mg being the sweet spot with no marked improvement beyond that with a higher dosage. The study also found that 50mg of CBN surpassed the effectiveness of melatonin. Users reported falling asleep faster, experiencing more profound and restful sleep while waking up, and feeling refreshed without the grogginess associated with traditional sleep medications​​.

What ingredients are in TruCBN™ softgels?

Our TruCBN™ softgels keep things simple and pure. Each softgel contains our TruCBN, medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) oil derived from coconut, gelatin, and glycerin. No fillers, preservatives or other chemicals. The MCT oil acts as a carrier to improve the absorption of TruCBN™ in the body. This combination ensures that you receive a consistent and effective dose of TruCBN™.

Is TruCBN™ safe to use?

Yes—TruCBN™ was shown to have no toxicity in our safety studies and our clinical study and showed no adverse side effects. But, as with any dietary supplement, we recommend you consult with a healthcare professional before starting TruCBN™—especially if you are pregnant, nursing, taking other medications or have underlying health conditions. This will ensure that TruCBN™ is a suitable option for your specific health needs.

Will TruCBN™ make me feel high?

No, TruCBN™ will not make you feel high. Unlike THC, which is the psychoactive component of cannabis, CBN is non-psychoactive. This means it does not produce the euphoric "high" associated with marijuana use. TruCBN™ is formulated to be THC-free, focusing solely on the sleep-enhancing properties of CBN. This makes it a safe option for individuals looking to improve their sleep without the mind-altering effects of THC.

How should I take TruCBN™ softgels?

For optimal results, it is recommended to take one TruCBN™ softgel approximately 45 minutes before bed. This allows enough time for the CBN to be absorbed and start working within your body. It is best to take the softgel with a glass of water. Consistent use at the same time each night can help regulate your sleep patterns and improve overall sleep quality. It is important to follow the dosage instructions provided on the product label or by your healthcare provider.

Are there any side effects of using TruCBN™?

TruCBN™ is generally well-tolerated by most users, with clinical trials showing no significant differences in the frequency of reported side effects compared to a placebo. In a comprehensive study participants did not experience significant side effects. As always, if you experience any severe or persistent side effects, it is important to discontinue use and consult with a healthcare professional.

Can I take TruCBN™ at the same time as other sleep aids, including melatonin?

Yes, you can take TruCBN™ alongside other sleep aids such as melatonin. Many users find that combining CBN with melatonin can enhance the overall effectiveness in improving sleep quality. While TruCBN™ works through its interaction with the endocannabinoid system, melatonin regulates the sleep-wake cycle. Together, they can provide a synergistic effect, promoting deeper and more restful sleep.

What is the best CBN dosage for sleep?

The optimal CBN dosage for sleep can vary based on individual needs and tolerance levels. Clinical studies have shown that a dose of 50mg of CBN (the dosage contained in one TruCBN™ softgel) can significantly improve sleep quality, comparable to the effects of melatonin.

What is a cannabinoid?

Cannabinoids are a group of naturally occurring compounds found in cannabis and hemp plants. They interact with the body's endocannabinoid system (ECS), which is involved in regulating a range of functions such as sleep, immune response, pain, and mood. The most well-known cannabinoids are THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol), but there are many others, including CBN (cannabinol). Each cannabinoid has unique effects, with some providing therapeutic benefits without the psychoactive effects associated with THC.

How Does TruCBN™ compare?

Is TruCBN™ like CBD?

While TruCBN™ (cannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol) are both cannabinoids derived from the cannabis and hemp plant, CBN has grown in popularity as a sleep aid and TruCBN™ is clinically validated to improve sleep quality—unlike CBD which has not been shown to improve sleep.

CBN vs CBD: How do they compare?

CBN (cannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol) both interact with the endocannabinoid system but offer different benefits. CBN, particularly TruCBN™, has been clinically proven to improve sleep significantly, making it ideal for those with sleep disturbances. The recent study on TruCBN™ revealed that it effectively enhances sleep quality at various doses, outperforming a placebo and even showing better results than melatonin. CBD, on the other hand, is widely used for its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and anti-anxiety properties. While CBD can contribute to overall well-being and address various health issues, CBN is specifically targeted towards promoting better sleep and relaxation.

How does TruCBN™compare to melatonin?

TruCBN™ and melatonin are both popular sleep aids, but they offer different benefits and work through distinct mechanisms. Melatonin is a hormone naturally produced by the pineal gland in the brain to help regulate the sleep-wake cycle. While it can be effective in aiding sleep onset, particularly for issues like jet lag or shift work, some of its users report negative various side effects. The so-called "melatonin hangover" is a cluster of side effects such as grogginess, headaches and nausea that can affect daytime performance and alertness.In contrast, TruCBN™ is a specialized supplement containing cannabinol (CBN), a non-psychoactive cannabinoid from the cannabis plant. A recent placebo-controlled clinical trial demonstrated that TruCBN™ significantly improves sleep quality and duration. The study included over 1,000 participants and found that those taking 25mg and 50mg doses of TruCBN™ experienced substantial improvements in sleep compared to a placebo. Notably, the 50mg dose of TruCBN™ was particularly effective, even surpassing melatonin in enhancing sleep quality for many participants​​.One of the key advantages of TruCBN™ is its ability to provide deeper and more restful sleep without the grogginess and other side effects commonly associated with melatonin and other alternative sleep medications. This makes TruCBN™ an excellent option for people seeking a natural sleep aid that does not compromise daytime alertness​​.

CBG vs CBN: how do they compare?

CBG (cannabigerol) and CBN (cannabinol) are both cannabinoids derived from the cannabis plant, but they offer distinct benefits and uses. CBG is known for its potential anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and neuroprotective properties, making it beneficial for overall health and wellness. In contrast, CBN is primarily recognized for its sleep benefits, making it highly effective for improving sleep quality. CBN interacts with the body's endocannabinoid system to promote relaxation and deeper sleep, offering a natural alternative to traditional sleep aids. While both cannabinoids have therapeutic benefits, CBN is particularly valued for its ability to enhance sleep and support restful nights.

How do CBN softgels compare to CBN gummies for sleep?

CBN softgels and CBN gummies both offer benefits for sleep, but there are differences in their formulations and how they are absorbed by the body. Softgels typically provide a more consistent and quicker release of CBN due to their liquid form, which can be beneficial for those needing faster sleep onset. Gummies, on the other hand, may have added flavors and ingredients, making them more appealing but possibly slower to absorb due to digestion. Ultimately, the choice between softgels and gummies may depend on personal preference and specific sleep needs. Currently we offer TruCBN™ softgels and are working on a gummy offering for the future.
