How Much CBD Should You Take? CBD Dosing Guide

Navigating the world of CBD can often seem overwhelming, especially when determining the right dosage for your specific needs. CBD has become a staple for many for its proposed health benefits like anxiety relief, pain alleviation, and improving sleep quality. While many are interested in harnessing these benefits, the question remains: How do I dose CBD?

When determining the optimal CBD dose, there are several things to consider. 

• Your body weight
• The concentration of CBD in your product
• The condition you're treating

A general guide for beginners would be to start with 20-30mg and see how you react and if this helps your condition. From there you can increase by 10mg until you reach your optimal dose. As a bonus, all of our oils come equipped with a graduated pipette so that you can accurately measure the correct dose every time.

CBD dose for anxiety

Recommended: low to medium dose

Anxiety comes in varying intensities and forms. Whether it's social anxiety, generalised anxiety disorder, or occasional episodes of stress, finding relief is important. Starting with a daily dose of around 30mg of CBD — approximately 1 pipette’s worth of 1000mg CBD oil — can provide relief. However, it's crucial to understand that the effectiveness of CBD for anxiety will vary depending on personal factors. Some might require a slight uptick in dosage, while others might find relief with even less. Consistent monitoring and slight adjustments can guide you to your optimal dose.

CBD dose for sleep

Recommended: medium to high dose

Difficulty sleeping affects many of us these days. With phone screens and constant stimulus, a good night's sleep has become somewhat of a luxury. CBD has emerged as a natural solution to these nocturnal challenges. When considering CBD to help with sleep, it's recommended to opt for a higher dosage, in the ballpark of 50mg. Integrate this into your nighttime routine by taking your dose 15-20 minutes before you plan to sleep, allowing the CBD to usher you into a peaceful rest.

CBD dose for pain

Recommended: high dose

Pain, whether chronic or sporadic, can negatively affect daily life. From nagging backaches resulting from long hours at the desk to arthritis and joint pain, CBD offers a natural remedy. Specific muscular discomfort benefits from the direct application of our recovery creams. Three pumps of this cream provide 30mg of CBD which is a good place to start. But when dealing with severe or chronic pain, initiating with a high dose of about 50mg is advisable. From there, adjust according to your relief level, always bearing in mind the factors addressed above and the nature of your pain.  If your pain is less specific and is more of a general chronic pain, then our oils are a great way to deliver relief throughout the day. We would recommend our 2000mg oil for these types of conditions. For example, chronic back pain is likely to require a higher dosage for lasting relief.

CBD oil

CBD oil is praised for its speedy action, making it ideal for those looking for swift relief. With an onset time of about 15 minutes, it is versatile and integrates easily into various routines. Just place the oil under the tongue for 60 seconds before swallowing.

CBD gummies

Convenience and precision are the hallmarks of CBD gummies. Our gummies come in 10mg and 25mg doses and offer an easy way to get a consistent dose. With the added bonus of a sweet treat, gummies are a go-to for many CBD enthusiasts.

Incorporating CBD requires a mix of knowledge and a dash of personal experimentation. It's important to always listen to your body and seek advice from a professional if unsure.
