How CBD can help people with SAD cope with the change in seasons and the change to our lives
October 2020: As daylight reduces over the next few months following the Autumn clock change, sleep problems can escalate for people affected by Seasonal Affective Disorder[i]. At a time when many are already suffering high levels of anxiety, the benefits of CBD to help reduce anxiety and support better sleep are being investigated by an increasing number of UK consumers. Life Spark CBD, the East Sussex based, e-retailer of one of the only fully Organic CBD products in the UK, and just a handful to offer Zero THC[ii] products, has seen orders rise 300% this year compared to 2019.
CBD is commonly used to address anxiety, and for people who suffer through the misery of insomnia, studies suggest that CBD may help with both falling asleep and staying asleep. CBD may also offer an option for treating different types of chronic pain[iii].
Amy Burgess, Director of Life Spark CBD says: “CBD is becoming a mainstream product. Unfortunately, the CBD market is unregulated allowing the entry of rogue suppliers. Quality matters when investing in your health. We’ve noticed with the rise in COVID infections in the UK our sales soared – as people’s anxieties have heightened, they are turning to organic Life Spark CBD as a natural remedy.”
“It is vital that as more people try CBD for the first time, they know how what to look for and how to take it. The quality and potency of available CBD products on the market varies significantly and labelling can be deceiving.
“We import our 100% Organically Grown, THC free CBD from the US which has led the world in the development of CBD and where millions of people benefit.”
Unlike most other CBD retailers, Life Spark provides customers with very clear guidance and assistance in reaching the optimum dose for the individual’s needs – whether that’s pain management, stress, anxiety or sleep disorders.
