Step 1: Calculating the Ideal CBD Dose Based on Your Weight
[YOUR WEIGHT IN KG] x [DESIRED STRENGTH (0.2, 0.7, 1.3 mg)] = [YOUR DOSE IN MG CBD]
Low = 0.2 mg | Medium = 0.7 mg | High = 1.3 mg
Ex;
If you are a 60-kg male seeking a medium-strength dose of CBD, you can calculate your ideal dosage by multiplying your weight (60 kilogram) by the recommended dose per kilogram for medium strength (0.7 mg). This would give you a starting dose of approximately 42 mg of CBD per day.
[60] x [0.7 mg] = 42 mg CBD
Step 2: Identify the potency of your CBD oil
[CBD IN MG] ÷ [BOTTLE SIZE IN ML] = [CBD IN MG/ML]
When determining the potency of your CBD oil, consider the size of the bottle and the amount of CBD listed on the label.
Ex;
A CBD oil product has 2000 mg of CBD in a 30 ml bottle, the potency is 20 mg CBD per mL of liquid.
[2000 mg] ÷ [30 ml] = [67 mg/ml CBD].
Step 3: Convert the Dose into Drops
[CBD POTENCY PER ML] ÷ [30 DROPS] = [MG/DROP]
[TARGET DOSE OF CBD] ÷ [POTENCY OF CBD OIL PER DROP] = DOSE OF CBD OIL IN DROPS
To calculate the dose per drop, divide the dose per ml by 30 (assuming most droppers dispense 30 drops per ml of oil).
Ex;
Using our previous example of a 2000 mg CBD oil in a 30 ml bottle. Because this oil had a potency of 67 mg per ml, we can calculate the CBD dose per drop by dividing this number by 30. You can use all this information to find the number of drops needed to reach the target dose.
[67 mg/ml] ÷ [30 drops] = 2.2 mg/drop
[42 mg] ÷ [2.2 mg/drop] = 19 Drops of CBD Oil
Step 4: Find the right CBD dosage for your body
Everyone responds to CBD oil differently, so you need to assess how it affects you individually.
For example, using dose calculated in the previous steps. The 60-kg male adjust it until he find the right amount for him. If he did not find relief with 42 mg, try increasing the dose to the next strength tier. If he found relief but experienced side effects, try decreasing the dose slightly.
This process is ongoing and you will need to continually reassess and adjust the dose to suit your needs.
