The Science
Sleep: A Critical Component of Health
Sleep is an essential pillar of health, alongside diet and physical activity. It influences nearly every aspect of our well-being, from metabolic and emotional regulation to cognitive function, memory consolidation, and even overall performance. Despite its significance, sleep often doesn’t receive the attention it deserves in public health discussions.
Sleep plays a key role in regulating metabolic processes, supporting emotional balance, enhancing learning, and allowing our brains to recover and function optimally. Yet, unlike diet or exercise, sleep frequently remains on the sidelines when it comes to public health initiatives. This oversight is surprising given the growing body of research that underscores sleep’s profound impact on both physical and mental health.

Your guide to using Flora Fusion CBD for sleep:
Finding your perfect fit
- Your CBD journey. Depending on your tastes and preferences there are multiple ways to add CBD products to your day. Everyone is different and so to everyone’s CBD journey. Pick one, or better still give us a call or a message and we can help you get there.
- Find your starting point. Start with a small amount. The FSA recommended daily intake is 10mg of CBD, so start there and let your results guide your usage. Ask a Flora Fusion team member on your selected product and how to work it out.
Lets use our Silver product as an example:
- 800mg CBD oil
- Sublingual oil. Place oil under your tongue and hold it for a short period then swallow
- Stay the course. Take your CBD product daily alongside your other health protocols, ideally at the same time, for best results. Do not take at the same time as medication.
How much to take?
- Start at the start. Notice how you feel and adjust usage based on your stress levels, mood, and well-being. Start at 10mg per day.
An example:
- Silver Oil is 800mg of CBD in a 10ml bottle
- Each Bottle holds approx. 200 drops of Oil
- Each drop contains approx. 4mg of CBD
- Therefore start with 2 to 3 drops and increase at a drop a time and experiment safely until you see results.
Additionally, depending on your specific condition and needs, you may need to adjust the usage until you find the perfect balance between symptom relief and maximum benefit without any adverse side effects.
Review your Diet!
What is a Balanced Diet?
A balanced diet is all about eating a variety of foods in the right proportions to support your body’s needs. It’s like creating the perfect recipe for good health!
Think of it as a plate with a mix of the following key components:
- Fruits and Vegetables: These colorful foods are packed with vitamins, minerals, and fiber, and they should make up a large portion of your meals.
- Proteins: Foods like lean meat, fish, eggs, beans, and nuts help build and repair muscles, and are essential for overall health.
- Carbohydrates: Whole grains like brown rice, oats, and whole wheat provide energy and are a great source of fiber.
- Dairy or Dairy Alternatives: These provide calcium for strong bones and teeth. Think milk, yogurt, and cheese—or fortified plant-based options like almond or soy milk.
- Healthy Fats: Avocados, olive oil, and nuts are full of good fats that support your brain and heart health.
The key to a balanced diet isn’t about restricting certain foods—it’s about eating a wide variety and making sure you’re getting everything your body needs to thrive!
Why It Matters
So why should you care about maintaining a balanced diet? The benefits are pretty impressive and essential for optimum CBD results:
- Boosted Energy Levels: A mix of carbs, protein, and healthy fats keeps your energy up throughout the day—no more crashing after lunch!
- Stronger Immune System: Vitamins and minerals from fruits, vegetables, and proteins strengthen your body’s defenses, helping you fight off illnesses.
- Better Mood and Mental Clarity: The brain needs the right fuel too! Foods rich in Omega-3s, antioxidants, and vitamins support cognitive function and can even improve your mood.
- Healthy Weight: A balanced diet helps maintain a healthy weight by nourishing your body properly, reducing the need to snack on empty-calorie foods.
- Long-Term Health: Maintaining a well-rounded diet lowers your risk for chronic diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes, and even certain cancers.
When your body gets the nutrients it needs, you feel your best—physically and mentally. This optimises CBD use. It’s like giving your car the highest-quality fuel; it runs smoothly and lasts longer!
Always ask for guidance:
- Consult a healthcare professional before using CBD, especially if you have health conditions or take medications.
- CBD is generally safe, but some experience dry mouth, dizziness, or fatigue. If you have any concerns, stop using it and see a doctor.
