CBD Tinctures

Our endocannabinoid system (ECS) consists primarily of cannabinoid receptors. These receptors play a vital role in the chemica reactions that govern our mood, memory, pain, appetite, and more. The two main ECS receptors are CB1 and CB2. They can be found throughout our bodies, from the brain, to the nervous system, to our peripheral organs and tissues.Cannabinoids (such as CBD) naturally bond with these receptors, activating a chemical reaction that alters the way our body functions. For example, when a CBD molecule binds to a CB2 receptor, a cellular response is triggered, increasing homeostasis and cellular performance.

Metabolism

Our age and weight plays a big factor when it comes to the speed of someones metabolism. As we get older our metabolism slows down significantly. Therefore you will not need as high of a milligram as someone who is in their 20’s. Your activity level can also effect the amount of CBD you will need to take in a day. Someone who is more active may want to increase the frequency of CBD use. Some of our customers take it upon rising and bed time. Some take it there to four times daily if working a lot.

Pain Levels

Different pain levels and sources require different amounts of CBD. For example, a patient who is suffering from extreme pain is going to use a higher dose than someone who is using CBD for something more minor.Average dosage that works for most adults weighing up to 125 pounds is 20-50mg/day. Dosage for someone larger should be done at your own judgement, as we all have different pain tolerance levels. When you start feeling a little hit of relief, start increasing dosage and/or milligrams until you find maximum relief of pain and/or anxiety.
