Cannabis Innovator Lehua Brands Expands Popular Live ORO Line of Wellness Products with Sleep Aid Option

California-Based Cannabis House of Brands Releases Infused Beverage to Promote Restful Nights

KING CITY, California—September 19, 2024—Lehua Brands, a California-licensed manufacturer of award-winning cannabis products, announced a product line expansion of its Live ORO wellness shots that provide high-quality, healthier and function-based options for consumers in California and Canada. Live ORO is a line of wellness products that speaks to the healthy-minded audience; specifically athletes who want the benefits of cannabis, mostly without smoking.

Live ORO sleep aid combines CBN, THC, melatonin and magnesium so it targets multiple pathways to enhance relaxation, reduce anxiety and improve sleep quality. This combination offers a holistic approach by addressing not just the ability to fall asleep, but also the quality of deep, restorative sleep. Other products focus on a single ingredient or function, but Lehua’s formulation delivers a balanced and comprehensive solution without being habit-forming.

Live ORO features pomegranate and black cherry flavors in a controllable dose. Each Live ORO beverage is vegan and gluten-free, with zero sugar, zero calories and zero carbs. Black cherry and pomegranate were specifically chosen because they are both fruits that contain compounds that may support sleep, though their effects and mechanisms are somewhat different. With one in five Americans struggling to fall asleep every night and about 30% of Americans showing symptoms of insomnia, Lehua encourages consumers to try an all-natural alternative to prescription options.

“At Lehua, we believe in the power of plants over pills. And we also believe that every great day begins with a good night’s sleep. Our Live ORO cannabis-infused wellness products are developed to enhance your life by combining the effects of cannabis with carefully selected natural ingredients and CBN,” CEO Sierra Elaina said. “It's a well balanced sleep aid with a lower dose of THC that provides an early onset, and it’s healthy. It’s a functional sleeping aid for a higher state of well-being.”

Black cherries—especially tart cherries—are rich in melatonin, a hormone that regulates the sleep-wake cycle. They also have anti-inflammatory properties due to their antioxidant content that includes anthocyanins. Studies suggest that tart cherry juice can help improve sleep in individuals with insomnia or poor sleep patterns, increasing total sleep time and efficiency.

Meanwhile, pomegranates are rich in antioxidants like polyphenols, which may help reduce inflammation and oxidative stress. Inflammation can contribute to sleep disorders and reducing it may indirectly support better sleep. Lehua recognizes that some consumers are melatonin resistant—and the compound is not in compliance in some markets—so a Live ORO version with valerian root is expected to launch next month.

Live ORO sleep aid is currently available in dispensaries in California through Lehua’s distribution partner, Lowell Farms. Lehua products are also available in 115+ California licensed retailers and over 200 + licensed retailers in Ontario, Canada.
