While there is scientific evidence to suggest that CBD may have potential benefits for anxiety and insomnia, the marketing of these products often exaggerates or misrepresents the findings of studies. This can blur the line between science and pseudoscience. It is important for consumers to be wary of exaggerated marketing claims and to consult with a healthcare professional before using CBD products for anxiety or insomnia.
