You got yourself a new bottle of CBD and you’re wondering, “What’s the Best Way to Take CBD Oil”? Well ingesting CBD Oil can be a complicated thing. CBD oil can be ingested in a number of ways:

Sublingually
Topically
Ingested with food and sometimes drinks

The answer to this question is simple. It is whatever you prefer. But if the question is “What is the most effective way to take CBD oil. Then the answer would most likely be as a sublingual drop.

Most CBD oil is made with the intention of being ingested sublingually. Sublingual means under the tongue, but it gets a bit more complicated than just tossing a little bit of CBD oil under you tongue.

Now that we have decided to try using CBD oil under the tongue, we must ask ourselves what How to take a sublingual oil under the tongue or “How to dose our sublingual CBD oil properly?”. You must make sure you are taking the right amount, or it will not be effective at all. Similarly, if you take too much you might get a little sleepy. Well… how do we know what the right amount is? The answer is that you need to self-titrate. What that means is you are going to have to do a little bit of experimenting to figure out the dose. Basically, you are going to have to start small and build your way up.

How to Dose CBD Oil:

Look at the bottle, how many milligrams of CBD are in the entire bottle?
Look at the bottle again, how many milliliters of oil are in the bottle
This bottle is a 30 ml bottle and has 600mg of CBD in it
Figure out how many mg is in each ml of the oil. This is done by dividing the amount of mg by the amount of ml.
1. For the above bottle of CBD oil:
  1. There are 20 mg of CBD per ml
  2. 600mg/30ml= 20mg per ml
2. Typically, the droppers used for CBD oil bottles tend to have measurements. But if they don’t then typically a dropper full of oil equals one ml.
  1. This is not the case for every bottle of CBD oil, and you must check this to be sure.
3. Always start with a low dose.
  1. Measure how much you take. If you did half a dropper full of the above bottle then you would be taking 10 mg.
4. Leave the dose under your tongue for 2 minutes and swallow. In 20 minutes, you should start to feel the effects.
5. If you don’t feel the effects in 20 minutes that just means you need a higher dose. So, add more, but keep track of how much.
