Start Low. Go Slow. Listen to Your Body.
Every body is different—so there’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to CBD. The right dose depends on your weight, body chemistry, metabolism, and what you’re trying to treat. Here’s a simple guide to help you get started with confidence:
General Dosage Recommendations
| Goal | Starting Dose | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Daily Wellness | 5–10 mg CBD or equivalent | Take 1-3 times a day for general support |
| Stress & Anxiety | 10–20 mg | Use 30–60 minutes before or during stressful times |
| Sleep Support | 15–30 mg (CBD or CBN) | Take 30–60 minutes before bed |
| Pain Relief | 15–50 mg | May need higher dose for chronic pain; start low and increase as needed |
| Severe Conditions | 25–100+ mg | Work up slowly; consider splitting into 2–3 doses per day |

How to Dose by Dropper
For our OG Blend CBD Oil, Everyday Blend CBD Oil & THC-Free CBD Oil:
- 1000 mg bottle (30ml) = ~33 mg per full dropper
- 500 mg bottle (15ml) = ~16.6 mg per full dropper
- For other CBD Oil varieties, take the total mg per bottle, and divide it by the ml in the bottle to find out how much mg per full dropper.
Tip: Start with 2–3 drops or ¼ dropper and increase slowly over time until you notice relief. Sometimes you don’t “feel” a change, it’s more like noticing the “absence of…”. Absence of pain, absence of irritation, absense of sadness, etc.
Topical Products
Topicals (like salves and rollers) don’t enter the bloodstream—they work locally on muscles, joints, or skin. Apply a pea-sized amount directly to the area of discomfort and reapply as needed.
Edibles (Gummies, Teas, Drink Mixes)
Effects may take longer to kick in (30–90 minutes), but last longer than tinctures. Start with a half or even a quarter of a gummy depending on strength (especially if THC is included) and wait before taking more.
A Few Final Tips
- Be consistent: Natural remedies work best when taken regularly.
- Track your progress: Journal how you feel each day to find your ideal dose.
- Don’t be afraid to adjust: You know your body best.
