How many drops is the right amount of CBD oil? That’s the question on many people’s minds when they take their first steps into the world of CBD products. The amount of CBD oil drops you take can change your experience – and it’s unique to everyone! That doesn’t mean there aren’t helpful guidelines to set you on the path to finding your perfect dose. If you’ve been wondering how to start, here’s our beginner’s guide
How to Take CBD Oil
There are several different ways, and it’s worth trying a few to see which works best for you and gives you the best experience. Thanks to the versatility of a good oil, you can take it in the form of capsules, edibles, or vapes and even apply it to your skin.
However, the most straightforward – and in many ways the most potent – method is placing a few drops under your tongue for around 30 seconds, then swallowing. We recommend this as a starting point for beginners.
One of the benefits of taking CBD oil under the tongue is how quickly you’ll feel the effects – it usually takes around half an hour. Compare that to ingesting it (as in a capsule or edible), where it has to be processed by your digestive system, which can take an hour or more. Always make sure that your oil is safe for consumption before you start – some are for topical use only.
Drop By Drop: A Guide to Determining Dosage
When it comes to your CBD oil dosage, the golden rule is always “start low and go slow.” The recommended starting dose is just 0.5ml, taken up to three times per day. The best time to take it for the first time is usually before bed.
Once you’ve tried it a few times, you can slowly increase the number of drops you take until you reach your desired experience. Always check the instructions on the packaging; don’t try to “eyeball” it. There are measurements on our pipettes to help you track your dosage precisely.
The concentration of the ingredients varies from product to product, so it’s best to follow this process whenever you start with something new. A consultation with your doctor before you take any cannabis products is always a good idea, especially if you are taking any chronic medication. Taking CBD should enhance your life, not put your health at risk.
