The condition

Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative condition with cognitive decline, often accompanied by agitation, anxiety, disrupted sleep and loss of appetite. Care combines pharmacological treatment, cognitive stimulation and support for caregivers.

What research suggests

CBD has drawn attention for antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties studied in models of neurodegeneration. Clinical interest also focuses on behavioral symptoms: agitation, sleep disturbance and appetite, where cannabinoids have been associated with support in small studies and case series.

How it is used as support

  • Full Spectrum or Broad Spectrum oils at low starting doses, titrated gradually.
  • CBD + CBN formulas for the evening routine when sleep is the main concern.
  • Always within the plan defined by the neurologist or geriatrician, with caregiver monitoring.
