Contrary to what popular belief says, CBD (or any other cannabis products) can be consumed in moderation.
There are four different ways to use cannabis.
Oils, Tinctures, and Tinctures CBD oil droplets and tinctures are respectively oil- and alcohol-based liquid extracts. They can be taken orally. These are smokeless, non-toxic ways to get CBD. You can see results in 15 minutes.
Edibles Ready to Eat Food and Drink Items infused in CBD oil. CBD edibles can be found in gummies, tea, and coffee. CBD gummy provide a convenient way to consume your daily CBD. Chocolates and gummies can be consumed straight from their packs. Drinks such as tea and coffee may need to be steeped at least 3 minutes before being consumed.
DIY CBD Edibles can be made by adding CBD oil to baked goods, brownies, and bread.
Capsules, which are non-food CBD edibles, are used as traditional medicine. Capsules offer convenience and a steady dosage.
Topicals products (such as CBD creams, creams, or salves) are used externally on the skin. These products are ideal for the management of local pain and inflammation like joint pain, soreness, etc.
You can choose from a variety of CBD products to suit your lifestyle. This makes CBD easy to adopt.
Dosage Works Differently for Different Products
Dosage refers to a person’s intake of a medicine or drug at a particular time. You can use the concept of dosage to describe four types of CBD products.
Tinctures & Oils
Edibles & Capsules
Interestingly, oils and Tinctures work on one principle while capsules and edibles work on another.
Dosage in Tinctures and Oil Drops
Oil drops or tinctures come packaged in a glass jar with a built-in dropper. This dropper displays quantity markings. If industry standards were maintained, the minimum serving size of each product would have to be 1mL.
For CBD oils and tinctures to be able to calculate the dosage, we must focus on the product’s strength. The CBD’s intensity is measured in strength. How strong a CBD extract can be?
Oils and tinctures allow you to alter the dosage of each ingredient at your leisure.
Dosage in Edibles and Capsules
Capsules and edibles come pre-set in dosage. It means that each capsule and edible in the same package has the same dose. The CBD is divided equally among all the servings.
We can have 15 gummies that contain 300mg of CBD. Each gummy has 20mg (300/15). You can consume 2 gummies per day if your daily CBD intake is 40mg.
A pack of 30 capsules containing 1500mg CBD will yield 50mg each (1500/30). This is a stronger and higher dosage that would need to be taken.
Your Reason to Use CBD
As mentioned earlier, CBD is safe for anyone who is not already sick. CBD can help with a multitude of medical conditions. But it can also be used as a wellness aid.
Understanding your reasons for using CBD is essential to determine the best type of CBD oil and product to use. This allows you to easily decide on the right dosage and frequency for a product.
Different CBD products provide different types of relief. CBD oil drops are more effective than edibles or capsules for treating chronic pain, insomnia, and anxiety.
CBD isolates are a good choice to use for a health supplement or to target mild medical conditions. Broad- and full-spectrum extractions are a better option if you have severe medical conditions.
