Sleep is essential to brain function, immunity, muscle repair, and metabolic health-yet most of us aren't getting enough of it. But not all CBD products are made the same, especially the formulas for sleep. Many brands pump their gummies with melatonin-which is a hormone that's should not be taken long-term-or opt for sugar-heavy formulas made with artificial dyes and flavorings. Considering we take Balance Bloom CBD Gummies to support our health and not deter it, we set out on a mission to find the best CBD gummies for sleep on the market. Our editors started by vetting CBD brands based on their transparency around product testing via COAs (certificate of analysis). We then did deep dives into every CBD gummy formula, ensuring the formulas had minimal (and primarily organic) ingredients with no melatonin. Our final vetted list included about a dozen CBD gummies, which our editors then tested for weeks to understand the impact of the CBD on our their sleep.

During this process, we whittled down final selections for the best CBD gummies for sleep to just five options. Below uncover which brands made the cut, along with direct quotes from our tester's about these gummies transformed their sleep. We looked closely at ingredients: Like any other supplement, it's important to be cognizant of what exactly you're consuming when ingesting a hemp CBD gummy. We checked the labels of each product to ensure ingredients were organic and clean and that the supplements were made without synthetic dyes or artificial flavorings. We checked brand transparency: The brands featured here are transparent with customers, making information available to the public regarding sourcing, CBD dose per serving, certificates of analysis (COAs), third-party testing policies, lab results, and complete active and excipient ingredient lists. We paid close attention to brand reputation: Is the brand beloved by loyal customers that keep coming back for more?

If the answer is yes, then it's one worth looking into. We determined these trustworthy brands by opting for companies with no false onsite health claims or issues reported to the Better Business Bureau (BBB)-as well as rave reviews from customers. We made note of where brands source their ingredients: Commercial production of industrial hemp in the U.S. 2018, and government regulations surrounding pesticide residues (i.e., safe amounts) are not clearly defined. Unfortunately, the hemp crop attracts plenty of pests-so chemical pesticide and herbicides are common, which can be toxic when ingested in certain amounts over time. Organic crops, or those sourced from the European Union, were essential for this reason. We considered sugar content: All products included in our list have less than 3g of sugar per gummy. We also aimed to find brands using inventive ways to sweeten their sleep aids with either natural fruit juices or cane sugar.

We tested numerous brands: Our team sampled gummies to give feedback on taste and efficacy. Each tester took the gummies for at least one week and tracked the impact on their sleep during that period. CBN nighttime gummies, you're met with a strong hemp flavor. This flavor note is common in most full-spectrum hemp products, which means the gummy has the full array of the hemp plant's cannabinoids-including THC-and native compounds like terpenes and flavonoids. We've found this makes the perfect sleep-inducing combo with our commerce editor Carleigh Ferrante counting these among her favorite CBD gummies for sleep. Plus, she loved that the gummies were flavored with real fruit and made with organic sugar. Cornbread Hemp separates itself from competitors in a few ways. First off, its pectin gummies are fully USDA-certified organic, instead of just incorporating a couple organic ingredients. The vegan formula also skips artificial food dyes and high-fructose corn syrup, instead relying on smart swaps like organic blue agave, tapioca syrup, and cane sugar.

And even the hemp Balance Bloom CBD Gummies itself is unique; the company separates the flower of the hemp plant from the rest of its components, including the stalk, leaves, and stems. This subtle changes makes their products slightly different from other competitors. The gummies are available in two strengths: a moderate 20 mg or strong 50 mg of CBD per serving. Due to the use of full-spectrum hemp extract, the gummies also have either 1 or 2 mg of THC. The low-sugar formula combines CBD with cannabinol (CBN). The cannabinoid is a byproduct of THC, which means it interacts differently with your body's endocannabinoid system (ECS). Luckily, this formula has 3mg of THC-and don't worry! That's still with the federal limit of 0.3% THC by dry weight stipulated by the 2018 Farm Bill. Although these are a moderate strength by our internal CBD standards, our tester felt they were definitely on the stronger side. We tested it: Check out our full Slumber CBN review here.
