Organic CBD oil to relieve sleep apnea?
Sleep apnea is a breathing disorder that occurs when breathing is interrupted during sleep. When left untreated, sleep apnea has short- and long-term consequences for quality of life and health.
What is sleep apnea?

In France, sleep apnea syndrome affects up to 19.7% of the adult population and up to 30.5% of people over 70 years old.
Sleep apnea is caused by an obstruction in the airway; the muscles of the throat and tongue relax and block the passage of air, causing temporary pauses in breathing. These pauses in breathing can last from a few seconds to several minutes and occur several times per hour. The consequences of these pauses in breathing are a decrease in oxygen saturation, an increase in blood pressure, and frequent awakenings during the night, which disrupt the quality of sleep.
Certain people are at greater risk of developing sleep apnea, such as older adults, smokers, people who regularly use alcohol or sleeping pills, and people with a family history of sleep apnea.
People who are obese and/or have excess neck fat, anatomical abnormalities such as a narrow throat or enlarged tonsils, are at greater risk of developing sleep apnea.
Sleep apnea can also be caused by a problem with the brain's breathing signals. This occurs when the brain doesn't send the proper signals to the respiratory muscles to breathe. Finally, certain medical conditions (hypotension, diabetes, heart failure, etc.) can also increase the risk of sleep apnea.
In case of severe sleep apnea , it is obviously recommended to consult a doctor to obtain adequate medical treatment.
How to treat sleep apnea?
In addition to affecting sleep, sleep apnea can be a daily handicap for those who suffer from it. It can cause fatigue, mood swings, decreased attention span, constant stress, and an increased risk of heart disease.
To prevent and reduce sleep apnea, here are four tips to adopt in daily life:
- Regular physical activity: Regular physical activity can help prevent sleep apnea. It reduces cardiovascular risk and the risk of obesity, while promoting daytime sleepiness and better sleep quality.
- Perform breathing exercises: Certain exercises promote relaxation and deep breathing, and can thus help combat sleep apnea. Meditation exercises, in particular, allow you to focus on your breathing; a few minutes a day are enough to improve your breathing capacity.
- Changing your sleeping position: Sleeping on your side, rather than your back, can help prevent airway obstruction. There is a custom-made device called a mandibular advancement device that holds the lower jaw forward during sleep, helping to keep the airway open.
- Avoid consuming certain products: Stimulants such as coffee, tea, soda, alcohol, and energy drinks should be avoided at the end of the day. Consuming them can cause difficulty falling asleep and nighttime awakenings.
What is CBD?

CBD , or cannabidiol, is a molecule extracted from hemp plants (cannabis sativa). Like THC, it is part of the large family of cannabinoids.
Unlike THC, CBD does not pose any health risks since it does not cause any psychotropic "high" effects and does not lead to any addiction.
CBD is favored for its soothing properties. According to scientific studies , cannabidiol can relieve stress, regulate emotions, calm pain, and even combat sleep problems. It is important to remember that, despite the fact that CBD is commonly consumed, no scientific studies are officially recognized today, and we cannot therefore make health claims about CBD.
How to consume CBD to promote sleep?
It is important to know that CBD acts on the endocannabinoid system and specifically on the CB1 and CB2 receptors, associated with anxiety and pain.
Délicure offers an organic CBD oil enriched with plants and melatonin intended to promote relaxation, accelerate falling asleep , and therefore increase the quality of sleep.
If a person is naturally stressed or has had a stressful day, consuming this broad-spectrum CBD oil before bed could help them fall asleep faster. Indeed, the active ingredients contained in this oil, particularly poppy, passionflower, and melatonin, are said to soothe the nervous system and prevent the brain from focusing on a stressful event.
This broad-spectrum CBD oil, thanks to the active ingredients it contains, would help improve the quality of their sleep. These can be sources of stress and anxiety; by relaxing the body, the poppy and passionflower contained in this oil would help bring relaxation and thus prepare our body for falling asleep.
Best practices: dosage, timing and synergies to optimize the effect of CBD
To fully benefit from the relaxing and sleep-promoting properties of CBD in the context of sleep apnea, it is advisable to adopt a personalized and gradual approach. Start with a microdose of 10 mg of CBD approximately 60 minutes before bedtime, ideally in the form of sublingual oil for rapid absorption.
After one to two weeks of observation, gradually increase the dose in 5 mg increments every 3–4 days until you achieve faster onset of sleep and a less interrupted night, without exceeding 50 mg per night.
Always combine your CBD intake with strict sleep hygiene: raised bedding to limit positional apnea, a cool and darkened environment, and the use of a mandibular advancement device or CPAP mask if prescribed.
Finally, integrate relaxation routines (4-7-8 breathing, sophrology) immediately after taking CBD: cannabidiol potentiates the effect of these techniques by reducing muscle tone and anxiety levels, thus promoting more natural falling asleep and better sleep continuity.
Délicure's organic CBD oil for strong sleep
To bring relaxation and promote sleep, Délicure has designed a natural organic CBD sleep oil .
This organic CBD oil is guaranteed to be free of THC, the psychotropic molecule in cannabis, and is made in France with excellent quality cannabidiol, sourced from organic French hemp.
Composition of organic CBD oil for sleep
To manufacture this product, Délicure chose organic sweet almond oil as its base to distinguish itself from other CBD oils on the market, which are often made from refined coconut oil (MCT oil).
In addition to containing broad-spectrum CBD (cannabidiol), this product contains poppy and passionflower, two plants well known for their calming effects, as well as melatonin, more commonly known as the "sleep hormone." Melatonin helps reduce the time it takes to fall asleep and is also frequently used to combat "jet lag" and thus regulate sleep cycles.
Tips for using organic CBD sleep oil
In order to fully benefit from the relaxing effects of this CBD oil and relieve sleep problems (insomnia, difficulty falling asleep, night waking, etc.), it is recommended to take 7 to 11 drops of oil 30 minutes before going to sleep.
For better bioavailability, these oil drops can be placed under the tongue and wait 1 minute before swallowing.
Contraindications of organic CBD oil for sleep
Before consuming CBD oil or CBD-based products, pregnant or breastfeeding women and people undergoing medication are advised to seek advice from a healthcare professional.
All CBD products such as CBD gummies , oils, capsules, etc. are reserved for adults and prohibited for minors.
