SAN MATEO, Calif., Sept. 03, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Plus Products Inc. (CSE: PLUS) (OTCQX: PLPRF) (the “Company” or “PLUS”), a cannabis and hemp branded products company in the U.S., today announced the launch of its new PLUS SLEEP brand into the California adult-use market.

Highlights

• 4 key ingredients to promote a well-rounded night of sleep: THC, CBN, CBD, and just a touch of melatonin.
• All-natural colors and flavors, with only 0.7g of sugar and 5 calories per gummy.
• 2 formulations to offer multiple potential solutions to a wide range of consumers: Sleep Cloudberry, with 5mg of THC, 1mg of CBN, and 1mg of CBD, along with CBNRelief Lychee, with 1mg of THC, 2mg of CBN, and 3mg of CBD.

PLUS’s new SLEEP gummies are scientifically formulated with a precise blend of cannabinoids and melatonin intended to help consumers fall asleep quickly and enjoy a full, restful night’s sleep.

Recent research on the interaction between cannabis, the endocannabinoid system, and the body’s natural circadian rhythm¹ drove PLUS’s formulations of the two new SLEEP products. “Each cannabinoid was selected for how it promotes better sleep, but together they have the potential to be greater than the sum of their parts. This is often referred to as the entourage effect.² We also included a physiologic dose of melatonin to support our bodies’ circadian rhythm, so these gummies actually work in concert with our natural systems,” stated Dr. Ari Mackler, Chief Scientific Officer. 

“We’re excited to help the 71% of cannabis sleep aid users who are not satisfied with their current remedies³,” stated Jake Heimark, CEO and Co-Founder. “Almost 50 million people in the US suffer from insomnia.⁴ It’s no surprise  we hear all the time that one of the top things people look for when they walk into a licensed retailer is something to help them sleep.”
