Please note that for some people it takes a while to recognize the first effects. It can take up to 4 weeks of regular application so your body gets used to the cannabinoids.

The possible dosage for beginners

• Start with a CBD 5% oil
• One hour before going to bed apply your first 1-2 pumps
• Celebrate it -you just had your first CBD experience
• The following day keep going with 1-2 pumps in the morning and 1-2 pumps in the evening
• Repeat it for at least one week
• It might not be necessary but in case you don't feel any effects, increase it to 3 pumps and so on

Observe your body carefully and possibly write down all the changes you have noticed in the evening. After some time you will certainly have found your perfect amount and the right oil.

Is it possible to overdose?

Cannabidiol (CBD) is particularly popular because there aren't major side effects. Also, it is hardly possible to get an overdose. However, please be careful anyway since everybody reacts differently. If taken too much, you may experience slight drowsiness or mild diarrhoea. 

A general guideline for safe application is 10 to 70mg per day. Please find the amount of CBD applied with one pump regarding the different strengths in the table.
