  • Fucking up your REM is definitely not associated with better sleep quality. I've smoked for 10 years and when I finally snapped out of it and stopped my sleep quality skyrocketed. Not smoking this shit is the best you can do to yourself.
  • Did they control for strain? Doesn't look like it, even sativa vs indica makes a difference in any of these studies, let alone the canaboids.

    They are missing an important variable and all results should be taken with necessary salt dosages.

  • This all depends on how one defines "sleep quality."

    Alcoholics will tell you they slept great.

    Sleep is what, the polar opposite of conscious activity ? That sort of negates the concept of "doing something" to get better sleep.

    The best sleep you are ever going to get is to lay down in quiet room with no light, noise, or other distractions, including mental ones, and simply do nothing.

    Where you find that quiet room ... I have no idea.

    Joking aside, I use federal/state legal hemp at times to achieve hyperfocus. A substance that provides hyperfocus is not something I would reach for to provide better sleep.
