CBD oil is one of the most popular ways to consume cannabidiol. They are precise, consistent, and transportable, making them a favorite.  Consume your CBD oil by measuring out the exact milligram amount with the included, pre-calibrated dropper by squeezing the top and sucking up the oil from the bottle. Holding the dropper above an open mouth, press the top and disperse the oil under your tongue. Hold the oil for 60-90 seconds before swallowing.  In addition to consuming CBD oil directly, you can also add these potent drops into meals and drinks you love.

CBD capsules are one of the most discreet and travel-friendly ways to consume cannabidiol on the go. Each capsule contains a pre-measured amount of CBD, which takes the guesswork out of the experience.  CBD capsules are incredibly simple to consume. Simply place a capsule (one serving) into your mouth, and swallow whole with a glass of water or another hydrating beverage.  CBD capsules are available in different potencies including 15mg, 25mg, and 40mg.

While many CBD products are designed for oral consumption, CBD topicals are meant to be applied on the outside of the body only.  In order to use CBD topicals, apply with clean hands a product of your choosing onto a localized area of the body. Gently massage your CBD topical in to encourage maximum absorption.  Topicals are ideal for soothing sore muscles and aching joints, or for nourishing dry, damaged skin.

CBD Gummies are by far the most delicious option! Available in a variety of formulations and flavors, we offer up to 1500mg of cannabidiol per bottle (25mg of CBD per gummy).  Consuming gummies is a piece of cake. Simply take 1-2 gummies (or the recommended serving size) out of the bottle, place them in your mouth, chew, and swallow. CBD gummies are used the same way a sweet treat is eaten. However, unlike a delicious bag of cookies, you won't want to eat more than the recommended serving size.

Consuming CBD should not be taken lightly. It is vital to speak with your medical professional or doctor before deciding if CBD is right for you. Self-medication is never recommended, and we always advocate for transparent communication with your medical professional prior to trying our products.

A general starting point begins with an extremely low dose for those just venturing out on their journey with Delta 8 THC. Starting low and working your way up as needed can help you find what works for you without risking side effects. Remember: start low and go slow.

5 – 15mg is just low enough to ease your body into taking Delta 8 THC yet strong enough to understand how it will affect you. This dosage range has little to no risk of undesirable effects.

A standard dose can range from 10 – 50mg for a consistent D8 consumer with a medium tolerance. Consuming Delta 8 regularly will build your tolerance up, which means the more often you take Delta 8, the more likely you will need to increase the dose to feel your desired effects.  The average single dose is closer to 15mg to 45mg. If your tolerance has built up past this point, you might want to try slightly higher doses. Or, stop using Delta 8 for some time before starting again. This will decrease your body’s tolerance to feel the same effects at the same dose you are used to.

For advanced consumers, the dose can range anywhere from 20 – 150mg. This level is only recommended for those that are very familiar with their reaction to Delta 8 THC. If regular dosing amounts are not strong enough, this level might work better for you.  Remember to always gradually increase your Delta 8 THC dosage. If you’re used to taking 30mg, for example, but you find your tolerance going up, increase the amount by 10mg at a time. Don’t jump too far ahead, or you risk negative effects such as lethargy or nervousness.

Depending on your method of consumption, the dosing frequency will vary. For example, an edible might take a few hours to metabolize. If you take one dose and don’t feel anything after a few minutes and decide to take more, you have increased your dosage. This might take you past your well-tolerated limit. By the time the D8 kicks in, you will be feeling its effects more strongly than you expected.  The frequency also changes depending on your reason for taking Delta 8. If you take Delta 8 to help you sleep, for instance, you would only take it at night before bed. If you are seeking relief from discomfort, then you would want to take Delta 8 more often.  Dosing frequency depends on the amount of time it takes for the effects of the Delta 8 THC work and then wear off:

• Inhaled: 30 – 90 seconds to kick in. Effects last 3 – 4 hours. 
• Topicals: 1 – 15 minutes to kick in. Effects last 2 – 4 hours. 
• Oral Ingestion: 45 minutes – 1 hour to kick in. Effects last 6 – 8 hours. 
• Sublingual: 15 – 30 minutes to kick in. Effects last 4 – 6 hours.

You should not take another dose of Delta 8 until you are sure the effects have worn off. To be sure, you may want to start with only one dose every day (24 hours) until you know how it affects you.  

To start, you should know that Delta 8 (D8) dosage is calculated using your body weight. When calculating your dose, we must consider:  

• The amount of D8 
• Product type 
• Your weight 
• Age 
• Tolerance 
• When you last ate
• Medication 
• Reason for taking Delta 8 

Sometimes these factors can be hard to determine. Metabolism and tolerance level, for instance, may be a mystery to you until you take Delta 8 THC.  Start with a "low and slow" approach until you learn your preferences.  For a starting dose, aim low. A single dose can be anywhere from 10 – 150mg, depending on your tolerance level and the D8 form you choose.
