Taking CBD in oil form is one of the most effective ways of consuming cannabidiol.
In a bottle, it's very convenient to take and easy to measure out thanks to its dosing pipette. What's more, by placing the drops under the tongue, the CBD rapidly comes into contact with the endocannabinoid receptors, ensuring rapid, optimal efficacy.
There are three types of CBD oils:
Full-spectrum CBD oils contain all the cannabinoids available in hemp. As these substances reinforce each other, their effectiveness is greatly enhanced when combined. This is known as the entourage effect.
As you can see from the curve above, the choice of CBD oil has a major impact on the effects of CBD and its duration of action.
As you can see from the blue curve, an isolate containing only CBD has a limited effect over time, producing a bell-shaped curve. After reaching its maximum effect, CBD activity fades until it disappears.
On the contrary, the effects of full-spectrum CBD on the red curve are maintained over time. Even if the optimal dosage is exceeded, the effects remain at their high level. [1]
That said, it doesn't mean you should take CBD without moderation. We always advise you to start with the lowest possible dose of CBD before increasing it if necessary. In fact, it's very important to know how your body reacts before gradually increasing the dose. It's very important to know how your body reacts before gradually increasing the dose.
Like all active substances, its effect on your body is conditioned by many factors. To findthe perfect amount of CBD oil for you, you need to consider:
We mention medications and alcohol you might have taken at the same time to cover all aspects of CBD dosing. However, we would remind you that it is strongly inadvisable to consume CBD if you have or will ingest alcohol. Likewise, if you are undergoing treatment, please consult your doctor before taking CBD.
Generally speaking, the dose to be taken ranges from 1 mg to 6 mg per 5 kg. For example, an 80 kg person would need to take between 16 and 96 mg, depending on the intensity of the pain.
If this is the first time you've tried CBD oil as a painkiller, it's best to start small (between 16 and 30 mg for an 80 kg person) and then increase as needed.
In all cases, the maximum not to be exceeded is 1500 mg/day.
Step 1 Determine the minimum dose based on the various factors to be taken into account
Step 2 Calculate the correct dosage using the information below. The type of oil is not taken into account in the basic dosage, only the concentration:
2.5% CBD oil: 1.25 mg CBD per drop.
5% CBD oil: 2.5 mg CBD per drop.
10% CBD oil: 5 mg CBD per drop.
20% CBD oil: 10 mg CBD per drop.
30% CBD oil: 15 mg CBD per drop.
> Step 4 Patience 😉
Finding the right dosage takes time to achieve the desired effects.. While some effects can be felt immediately (pain, depression), others require "accumulation" (particularly for epilepsy relief).
To go further, if you want to know the doses that are prescribed for serious pathologies, here are the recommended dosage ranges according to the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science:
- Chronic pain 2.5-20 mg CBD (with or without THC), preferably in oil.
- Majorsleep disorders : 40 mg to 160 mg CBD / day
- Movement problems due to Huntington's disease: 10 mg CBD per kg body weight / day
- Multiple sclerosis (MS) symptoms: 2.5 to 120 milligrams per day of a THC / CBD combination for 2 to 15 weeks. Patients typically use eight sprays over three hours, with a maximum of 48 sprays over a 24-hour period.
- Schizophrenia: 40 to 280 mg of oral CBD per day.
- Glaucoma: a single sublingual dose of CBD of 20 to 40 mg (> 40 mg may increase ocular pressure).
- Epilepsy: 200-300 mg CBD (orally) per day.
These CBD dosage suggestions are based on various scientific research, publications, expert opinion and user feedback. [2]. Nevertheless, the information listed and referenced is for informational purposes only and does not provide professional, medical or legal advice.
