Whether you’re experienced in taking CBD or you’re new to taking CBD, understanding the dosage and how CBD works can be somewhat confusing. CBD is not the same as taking an opioid or over-the-counter medicine for your ailments. When it comes to taking CBD, there is not a “one dosage fits all” remedy. There are many factors to consider: The severity of the ailment, the purity & concentration of CBD, individual’s weight, individual’s sensitivity/body chemistry, and so on. The number of drops and the MG strength best for you also depends on the severity of your ailment. CBD Body Blends recommends starting low in drops and gradually building from there to reach your desired dose. It is a much slower process than taking a pill, of course, but getting to your desired dosage is key to experiencing the relief you desire. We will try and put this simply: If you’re new to taking CBD, we recommend starting with 300mg and taking 10 drops, then increasing usage from there based on your individual needs. The information and formula below will help you figure out the amount of CBD per dosage so you understand how to calculate your own needs.

Figuring out how much CBD to take is based on the MG strength and the size of the bottle. There is no set dosage. You do not have to take 1-6 drops per 10lbs of body weight. You can take a total of three drops or five drops, 10 drops or 30 drops. The example below will give you an idea of how much CBD you’re taking and will help you figure out your desired dosage.

For example: A 30ml bottle is equivalent to 300 drops. If your MG strength is 300mg, that’s 300mg in the entire bottle not per drop/dosage. 1 drop in 300mg is equivalent to 1mg of CBD in a 30ml bottle (300 drops). We recommend you start low – so you start with 10 drops, which is 10mg of CBD per dosage. If your MG strength is 900mg, 1 drop is now equivalent to 3mg of CBD per drop based on the MG strength in a 30ml bottle (300 drops) and if you take 10 drops, your dosage now comes out to 30mg of CBD per dosage. If your MG strength is 1,800mg, 1 drop is now equivalent to 6mg of CBD per drop based on the MG strength in a 30ml bottle (300 drops) and if you take 10 drops, your dosage now comes out to 60mg of CBD per dosage.

Equation is MG strength divided by number of drops (300 in a 30ml bottle) = amount of CBD (in MG) per drop. Total drops taken = amount of CBD in MG per dosage.
