How Much CBD Should I Take?

You've heard about all the health benefits of CBD, but how much CBD should I take to feel something?

CBD is one over 120 active compound in hemp. These active compounds, known as cannabinoids, affect your body in different ways. 

CBD Oil Dosage - Full Spectrum vs Isolate

To know how much CBD you should take, it's important to first know what type of CBD: full spectrum or isolate.

Full Spectrum, also known as full spectrum hemp extract or whole plant oil, contains high levels of CBD along with all the compounds found within the plant. This includes other cannabinoids, terpenes, essential oils and other phytonutrients. 

CBD Isolate on the other hand, just contains CBD. Research suggest that CBD Isolate is only effective when taken in high concentration. The report also indicates that CBD oil is more effective when taken everyday, at a lower dosage, in a full spectrum oil form where all the cannabinoids and terpenes work together to create the Entourage Effect. Since isolate is just CBD they don't contain any other cannabinoids or terpenes and therefore are less effective.

The CBD Entourage Effect

Full Spectrum oil also produces what is know as the “entourage effect”. This means that when all the cannabinoids and terpenes are working together, they increase their therapeutic properties, something that CBD isolates doesn’t do.

How Much CBD Should I Take?

According to a study published in the journal, Current Drug Safety, you would need to take 20,000mg of CBD oil in a very short amount of time before it would become toxic.

With that being said, we recommend to start small and if needed work your way up. The reason, everyone is different so it's a matter of trial and error to figure out what the perfect amount is for you.

Here are your CBD Dosage suggestions:

Weigh Group Mild Effect Moderate Effect Strong Effect
Less than 130 lbs. 11mg or less 12mg to 14mg 15mg to 17mg
130 to 230 lbs. 18mg or less 19mg to 23mg 24mg to 27mg
Over 230 lbs. 23mg or less 24mg to 30mg 31mg to 45mg

 

For light CBD effects: less than 130 lbs take 11mg of CBD or less. If you weigh between 130 to 230 lbs we recommend 18mg of less and over 230 lbs about 23mg.

For moderate CBD effect: less than 130 lbs, take 12mg to 14mg. From 130 lbs to 230 lbs take between 19mg to 23mg and for over 230 lbs take up to 30mg.

For strong CBD effect: less than 130 lbs, take 17mg or less. From 130 lbs to 230 lbs take between 24mg to 27mg and for over 230 lbs take up to 45mg.

Looking for CBD Oil?

We believe that Full Spectrum CBD oil works better than Isolate or Broad Spectrum. CBD Oil should be all natural, vegan, with no additives, safe and extracted directly from nature.
