Description
Slumber – Full Spectrum 3:1 CBD:CBN Tincture
Slumber has created a dual action full spectrum CBD and CBN 3:1 tincture. It is designed to combine various cannabinoids and terpenes for an “entourage effect.” Slumber tintures are designed to promote deep and restful sleep. Their hemp-derived CBN is powered by nature to help you maximize relaxation and tranquility at night, for a better day tomorrow.
CBN: A unique rare and minor cannabinoid
Most cannabis plants only produce between 3-5% of CBN, making it very rare. As the French saying goes, “Tout ce qui est rare est cher” (means “All that is rare is expensive”). To most people’s surprise, CBN is up to 20 times the cost to produce vs. CBD! As such, it could be considered as the new gold of the cannabinoids!
What is a rare cannabinoid?
Rare or “minor” cannabinoids yield a limited amount in a single plant, generally between 0.01% to 10%. Conversely, popular or “major” cannabinoids include THC and CBD.
What is a minor cannabinoid?
According to the scientific discoveries so far, the cannabis plant (a general term for many different species, among which the well known hemp and marijuana) contains more than 110 different cannabinoids and 120 different terpenes.
Minor cannabinoids are defined as any and all cannabinoids from the cannabis plant other than Δ 9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ 9-THC). 1.
According to the definition stricto senso, CBD could be considered as a minor cannabinoid. But with the recent development and growth of CBD research, the cannabis industry most commonly refers to CBD as a major cannabinoid, given the high level amounts that can be found in some strains nowadays.
Apart from CBD, the up-and-coming minor cannabinoids in the spotlight are: CBG, CBC, CBN.
Initial research is very promising, showing many potential, yet different, benefits from each of these different minor cannabinoids.
The main and distinct difference between the known minor cannabinoids and Δ 9 THC is Δ 9 THC has a distinct psychotropic effect. Many may suggest that a lack of the “high effect” in these minor cannabinoids is a major added value for cannabis researchers and product users.
The future of minor cannabinoids
According to Visual Capitalist 3, the future of minor cannabinoids is very promising due to their potential in pain relieving properties and other various medical applications.
However, we are only at the beginning of the discovery of the incredible potential of minor cannabinoids. A great part of unknown still remains and further research is needed to explore even deeper these incredible natural compounds.
Why is CBN so unique?
According to research, CBN has shown to have this particular sedative and “sleepy” effect hasn’t been in other non-psychotropic cannabinoids studied thus far.
Furthermore, it seems that CBN is building a reputation to help in treating various skin conditions such as: dermatitis and various bacterial infections. It has also been hypothesized, CBN may even be able to fight infections such as MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus). Another notable study, has also shown benefits of treating glaucoma in a non human research experiment(4).
The future of CBN appears to be very promising…

Quicksilver Scientific – LipoCalm
Each 2 mL of Liposomal LipoCalm delivers 350 mg of a proprietary blend of Gamma-aminobutyric acid (as PharmaGABA®), Liquid SkullcapHerbextract (Scutellaria lateriflora), Liquid Passion Flower extract (Passiflora incarnata), and Blue Chamomile Flower oil. A serving size is 4 pumps. Each bottle contains 25 servings.
The elegant centerpiece of this formula is GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), the premier ‘calm and connect, rest and repair’ neurotransmitter. We use a naturally sourced GABA produced via fermentation by Lactobacillushilgardii, found in kimchi, a traditional Korean salted fermented dish. Added in are botanicals and essential oils that also support GABA.
GABA inhibits or slows down nerve impulses, and supplementation has been found to increase calming alpha-wave patterns during challenging mental tasks. Naturally sourced GABA has been shown to promote relaxation and reduce the time to fall asleep as well as increase the time spent in deep sleep.
The three botanicals Skullcap, Passion Flower, and Egyptian Blue Chamomile oil are widely used in European and American traditional herbal medicine to allay tension, soothe the restless mind, and support relaxation.
Because traditional oral formulations of botanicals may have low bioavailability, Christopher Shade, Ph.D., developed our liposomal LipoCalm®. Liposomal delivery systems protect molecules from breakdown while enabling more rapid uptake. In addition to exceptional absorption rates, these tiny liposomal and nanoemulsified particles increase diffusion across mucus membranes, enhance lymphatic circulation of nutrients and support cellular delivery. The phosphatidylcholine in liposomes offers a critical building block to lipid-rich brain cells.
Quicksilver Delivery Systems® utilizes modern science to unleash the curative power of nature. With the world’s most advanced phospholipid delivery systems, Quicksilver Scientific supplements can help to nourish your cells with phosphatidylcholine as they deliver their core effective ingredients faster and more efficiently.

Quicksilver Scientific – Liposomal Melatonin
By supporting deep restorative sleep, melatonin promotes the nightly repair, regeneration, and detoxification that occur when we sleep.
Sleep is regulated by exposure to light or to darkness. Light suppresses production of melatonin, while darkness stimulates it, leading us to feel pleasantly sleepy at night.
Sunlight, artificial indoor lighting, emotional stress, and the glow of city lights, computer, television, and phone screens, can all suppress the natural production of melatonin. Production of melatonin may also decrease with age.
Supplemental melatonin can assist in restoring normal, healthy sleep patterns. By supporting deep restorative sleep, melatonin promotes the nightly repair, regeneration, and detoxification that occur when we sleep. Melatonin is a potent neuroprotective molecule and radical scavenger that may support immune, cardiovascular, and bone health.
Because as little as 15% of a dose of melatonin is actually absorbed by the body when swallowed, Dr. Christopher Shade, PhD, developed our liposomal melatonin liquid, for enhanced uptake and nearly instantaneous effect. Liposomal melatonin may optimize cellular uptake and effectiveness and can be easily adjusted to a lower or higher dose to meet each individual’s needs.
Quicksilver Delivery Systems® utilizes modern science to unleash the curative power of nature. With the world’s most advanced phospholipid delivery systems, Quicksilver Scientific supplements can help to nourish your cells with phosphatidylcholine as they deliver their core effective ingredients faster and more efficiently.
