CBD, or cannabidiol, is a natural compound found in the hemp plant. Unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), another well-known compound from cannabis, CBD is non-psychoactive, meaning it won’t get you "high." Instead, it’s praised for its potential therapeutic benefits, including reducing anxiety, alleviating pain, and improving sleep.

Before diving into dosages, it’s important to understand the different types of CBD oil available:

Full-Spectrum CBD: Contains all cannabinoids, including trace amounts of THC (less than 0.3%), terpenes, and other beneficial compounds. Many believe in the "entourage effect," where these compounds work synergistically for enhanced benefits.

Broad-Spectrum CBD: Similar to full-spectrum but without the THC. It still offers the entourage effect without any THC concerns.

CBD Isolate: Pure CBD, with all other compounds removed. Ideal for those who want to avoid THC entirely or prefer CBD in its purest form.

As a beginner, it’s essential to start with a product that suits your needs and preferences. If you’re comfortable with a small amount of THC and want the full range of hemp’s benefits, full-spectrum CBD is for you. If you prefer no THC, opt for broad-spectrum or CBD isolate.

Determining the right dose can be a bit of trial and error, as it varies depending on factors like body weight, metabolism, and the condition you’re addressing. Here are some general guidelines to get you started:

Start Low and Go Slow: Begin with a low dose, typically 10-20mg of CBD per day. That's 3-6 drops of Phyte Club 10% CBD Oil. This allows you to see how your body responds without overdoing it. 

Observe and Adjust:  Pay attention to how you feel after taking CBD. If you don’t notice any effects, add 2-3 drops to your daily dose every 5 days or so until you find the amount that works for you. Don't be afraid to add drops to your dose!

Consider Your Goals: For general wellness or mild symptoms, a lower dose might suffice. For more severe issues, higher doses might be necessary, but always build up gradually.

CBD oil can be taken either in the morning, at night, or both, depending on the desired benefits. For instance, individuals experiencing sleep difficulties may find it beneficial to take drops in the evening. Conversely, those seeking relief from daytime symptoms might prefer to take CBD oil in the morning.

Week 1: Start with 20mg of CBD once a day. (6 drops of 10% Oil)

Week 2: If no significant effects are noticed, add 3 drops per day.

Week 3: Continue increasing by 3 drops each week until you achieve the desired effects.

Sublingual Method: Place the desired dose under your tongue and hold it there for 60 seconds before swallowing. This method allows for quicker absorption into the bloodstream, and a higher bioavailability than ingestion. 

Incorporate into Food or Drinks: Add CBD oil to your morning smoothie, coffee, or salad dressing. This is a convenient option if you prefer not to take it directly.

Consistency is Key: Take CBD at the same time each day to maintain a steady level in your system.

Keep a Journal: Track your doses and effects to find your optimal dosage more easily.

Consult a Professional: If you have any health conditions or take other medications, it’s wise to contact Phyte Club before starting CBD. Phyte Club is owned and operated by a Medical Doctor, which means we are able to offer comprehensive advice on what product will work best for you.

Starting your CBD journey can feel daunting, but with the right information and a bit of patience, you’ll find what works best for you. Remember to choose high-quality CBD oil, start with a low dose, and adjust gradually. Before long, you may discover the benefits that so many others have experienced with this natural, versatile remedy.
