When it comes to CBD dosages, there is no one-size-fits-all answer. Everybody and every body is different, and so the dosage that works for you may not work for someone else. That's why it's important to start small and increase your dosage gradually until you find the level that works best for you. In this blog post, we'll discuss how to determine the proper dosages for our 1CaB softgels, based on what we've learned as a company releasing holistic plant medicine for the masses since 2016.

Determine What Dose Makes the Most Sense for YOU

When starting out with CBD, it is important to start with a low dose and increase gradually as needed. This will allow you to see how your body reacts to the CBD and determine what the optimal dose is for you. It is also important to keep in mind that everyone’s body is different and that the amount of CBD that works for one person may not work for another.

FYI, each 1CaB softgel contains .5 mL of formulation. However each of our specific formulations is delicately counterbalanced to offset the CBD. We truly believe that to achieve the desired healing effects, MORE than CBD is required. Following are the amounts of CBD, alongside the other cannabinoids, that are in each formulation. 

Equanimity = 25 mg CBD and 2.5 mg CBN

Happy Belly = 30 mg CBG and 15 mg CBD and .35 mL CBC

Vital Recovery = 25 mg CBD and 25mg CBG and :5 mg CBN and .35 mg CBC

From there, you can titrate as needed.

Use Our Recommended Dosages as a Guide

Each one of our formulations is geared towards a different purpose. Our prize-winning Equanimity has been designed for a perfect night's sleep. Happy Belly is a holistic feast for your gut microbiome, aiding not only in soothing digestion but also in creating calm for people who carry stress in their gut. And Vital Recovery is our plant medicine vitality/immunity booster.

However, we've discovered that our loyal consumers have created their own uses for each formulation, with corresponding doses. For instance, some use Equanimity to calm them down during the day, so one gelcap is usually enough for that. Depending on whether you want to soothe your system before or after you eat, one Happy Belly before or after one's meal makes the difference. Vital Recovery is the loosest of the 1CaB formulations — since we all can use a pick-me-up, we often recommend taking a softgel as needed. We invite all 1CaB users to reach out and share the experiences we're having with our formulations and how they're using them. You may be holding the keys to someone else's healing; that's why at Medicine Box we like to ay, "WE Are the Entourage Effect." 

Use as Needed 

Once you have found the optimal dose of CBD for your needs, you can use it as needed. For some people, this may mean taking it on a daily basis, while others may only need to take it occasionally for relief from specific symptoms. 

We've designed the 1CaB Healing Suite of Botanical Formulations to speak to each other and heighten each other's effects. At some point, you'll probably use them all throughout your day at different intervals, for different purposes. We invite you to follow us on Facebook or Instagram to learn more about how to use our products and when to use them.

Talk to Your Doctor

Before starting any new supplement, it is always a good idea to speak with your doctor first. This is especially important if you are taking any medications, as CBD and the other herbs and mushrooms in our formulations can interact with certain prescription drugs. Your doctor can help you determine if CBD is right for you and what the best dosage would be.

As you can see, there is no one-size-fits-all answer when it comes to CBD dosages. It is important to start with a low dose and increase gradually as needed, keeping in mind that everyone’s body is different. Our 1CaB More than CBD softgels contain 25 mg of CBD each, along with other cannabinoids, mushrooms and herbs that work synergistically to provide healing effects. You can use them as needed, depending on your individual needs. We invite you to try our softgels today and discover the benefits of holistic plant medicine!
