What is CBD?

CBD is short for ‘cannabidiol’ which is a naturally occurring chemical compound found in the cannabis sativa plant.

 

How much CBD should I consume?

The dosage of CBD recommended changes with each and every person. Always start with a small amount to determine how much is a suitable amount for you. It’s recommended that you determine your CBD dosage by taking 1-6MG of CBD for every 10 pounds of body weight and based on other factors such as pain and stress. If you have severe pain, you may need a higher dosage than someone with mild pain.

We always recommend discussing the use of CBD with your pharmacist or physician before use.
