On trial: Prospect Farms' Dream Tincture
The tester: Danielle St. Pierre, a chronic insomniac
The brief: According to the CDC, one in three adults don't get enough sleep. If you're anything like me, not only do you fit right into this grim statistic, but you've also tried all of the sleep remedies out there to try to get a better night's rest. From melatonin tablets to calming herbal teas to relaxation apps, I've basically made myself a guinea pig for testing out sleep aids that — thus far — have not made a dent in improving my restless cycles. Not getting proper sleep can be quietly debilitating.
But then I tried this miraculous CBD-based Dream Tincture from Prospect Farms, and my fervent quest for a more restful slumber, at last, came to a gentle lull.
Based in Prospect, Maine, Prospect Farms was built on a 400-year old dairy farm that has provided for its local community for generations. Thanks to centuries of raising healthy animals, the vitamin-rich soil and natural local spring-fed water supply have created an ideal environment for the farm's most recent application: Growing hemp products. As the brand states, "The hemp seeds, the soil, the plants, the harvest, and the formulations — it all happens right here on our farm in Prospect, Maine. Nothing imported, nothing synthetic, and never a corner cut."
With the mission of providing natural, organically grown CBD wellness products designed to help people and pets live well naturally, Prospect Farms makes tinctures and topicals thoughtfully organized into functional categories of intended use for morning, daytime, and nighttime.
Stumbling upon Prospect Farms' outstanding line of tinctures, salves, and pet products has been a game changer for my own personal wellness. The best representation of the farm's values, in my opinion, is their nighttime Dream Tincture.
Developed to help promote better sleep habits and improve the quality of sleep in adults, Dream is a calming blend of natural ingredients, including whole-plant cannabinoids and terpenes that promote a better night’s sleep. Dream is made with a thoughtful, functional ingredient list that includes myrcene and linalol — all-natural sedatives and stress relievers — antioxidant-loaded, cold-pressed olive oil, supremely fragrant, and stress-relieving Bulgarian lavender, and full-spectrum CBD.
The first night I tried the Dream Tincture, I started with a full dropper (1 milliliter) of the tincture placed under my tongue for about an hour before bedtime, which delivered a CBD dose of 25 milligrams. I didn't notice any drastic side effects, but I did notice that my mind wasn't barking at me to check my emails, scroll through Instagram, or reread a piece that I had edited earlier that day. In short, I felt calm. Dare I say ... I felt ... ready to gently fall asleep?
After over 3 months of consistent use of the Dream Tincture every night before bed, I can fully attest to its calming and grounding benefits. Taking a dropper of Dream sublingually an hour before bed or added to a cup of herbal tea has become deeply engrained in my bedtime routine, and I've found that the depth and quality of my sleep have improved significantly.
At $70 for 750 milligrams of CBD, this is a worthwhile investment for any adult struggling with erratic sleep patterns.
Closing Argument: A lot of us struggle with getting a good night's sleep. If you feel as though you've tried just about everything out there without seeing any positive change, I urge you to give Prospect Farms' Dream Tincture a shot. There's no counting sheep on this farm.
