Dosage: How Much Should You Take?
Posted by CBD LION on on Mar/Tue/2020
Dosage
The main goal of taking CBD is to achieve the goldilocks zone.The goldilocks zone is the point where you have the correct amount of CBD in your system, not too little and not too much. One of the most difficult things is figuring out what it takes to get to that point.Your body, age, gender all can affect this point so there is no one size fits all for determining how much CBD you need.
So where do you start?
At CBD LION we strive to give you the tools to make calculating your dose amount simple.It does require trial and error and we recommend getting a journal to take notes about how much you take and the effects you experience.
Tinctures are one of the easiest and most popular products used to figure out the goldilocks zone.All of our droppers have measurements on it with the amount per mL on the label.
| Tincture Strength | Amount Per 0.5ml | Amount Per mL | Amount Per Drop |
| 250mg 15mL | 8.35mg | 16.7mg | 0.835mg |
| 500mg 30mL | 8.35mg | 16.7mg | 0.835mg |
| 500mg 15mL | 16.7mg | 33.4mg | 1.67mg |
| 1000mg 30mL | 16.7mg | 33.4mg | 1.67mg |
| 1000mg 60mL | 8.35mg | 16.7mg | 0.835mg |
| 2000mg 30mL | 33.4mg | 66.7mg | 3.34mg |
| 2000mg 60mL | 8.35mg | 16.7mg | 0.835mg |
| 4000mg 60mL | 8.35mg | 16.7mg | 0.835mg |
| 4000mg 120mL | 16.7mg | 33.4mg | 1.67mg |
| 5000mg 30mL | 83.35mg | 166.7mg | 8.34mg |
| 8000mg 120mL | 8.35mg | 16.7mg | 0.835mg |
| 10000mg 60mL | 83.35mg | 166.7mg | 8.34mg |
| 20000mg 120mL | 83.35mg | 166.7mg | 8.34mg |
Lotion
Our lotion offers an easy to measure amount similar to the tincture.Each pump is an exact measurement and can give you a consistent measurable amount.
300mg Lotion, 1 pump = 3mg of CBD
900mg Lotion, 1 pump = 9mg of CBD
Gummies
Our gummy line is incredibly easy to figure out the amount of CBD taken as each gummy contains 25mg of CBD.Don’t let the high amount intimidate as the gummies can be cut further down.A gummy cut in half will represent about 12.5mg of CBD.Keep in mind that edibles onset time and lasting effects can be heavily effected by the contents or lack there of in the stomach.
CBD Patch and Sports Tape
Our patch and sports tape is one of our newest products and due to some ingenious thinking on our product development team, the back side of the tape is pre marked in increments of 10mg of CBD.
Bath Bomb
Our bath bombs all contain a flat amount of 100mg of CBD so each bath will have a consistent amount of CBD in it.
Vape
Our vape products are the start where it becomes a little bit more difficult to calculate theamount of CBD received due to variation in the inhalation process.We came up with a range per product but this all varies on length and intensity of the draw.
150mg Vape Cart 0.75-2.25mg of CBD Per Draw
420mg Vape Cart 1.05-3.15mg of CBD Per Draw
500mg Pure Distillate Pen1.00-3.00mg of CBD Per Draw
CBD Shatter 8-12mg of CBD Per Dab (This can vary greatly due to the wide variance of dab sizes)
Roll-On
Due to the hard nature of measuring an application of the roll on, we are unable to give specific numbers regarding the application.With this product we encourage trial and error to gain a baseline.
Calculating Your Goldilocks zone
With the above information you can establish a base line on the amount of CBD you are taking and begin the process of adding more or less.We always recommend starting low and working your way up to the desired effect.Remember CBD takes time to accumulate in the body and it is important to stay consistent with the usage of the product for maximum efficacy.
