The dosage of CBD must be dictated by the desired effect
CBD indirectly influences the CB1 and CB2 receptors of the endocannabinoid system which regulates physiological functions such as the sensation of pain, inflammation, the response to stress and anxiety or even mood.
Cannabidiol also interacts with non-cannabinoid receptors in our body, such as the serotonin receptor 5-HT1A, which is involved in mood, as well as the vanilloid receptor TRPV1, which influences the brain's perception of pain.
It is these interactions that should dictate the appropriate dosage for your CBD e-liquid:
- Low dosages (≤100 mg/10ml): perfect for daily use, they allow you to feel slight relaxation and neutralize minor pains;
- Intermediate dosages (250-300 mg/10ml): suitable for brief vaping sessions, they provide more marked relief against stress, muscle or joint pain, insomnia and migraine;
- High dosages (500 mg/10ml): they produce intense effects and are reserved for experienced users, particularly in the context of smoking cessation or the fight against omnipresent stress;
- Very high dosages (>600 mg/10ml): mainly used as boosters, they must be diluted before use to avoid excessive concentration.
CBD e-liquid dosage: how to adapt your equipment?
The effectiveness of CBD e-liquids also depends on the material used. Here are our tips for equipping yourself according to the rules of the art:
- Vape power: low power (less than 30 watts) is recommended to prevent degradation of CBD e-liquids;
- Type of vape : indirect inhalation (MTL) with resistances of approximately 1 ohm is recommended to optimize the tasting of CBD e-liquids and better control your consumption;
- Dedicated equipment: use a device exclusively reserved for CBD e-liquids to avoid interactions with nicotine or other substances.
CBD e-liquid: precautions and advice for use
As with all vaporized or ingested products, certain common sense rules must apply for a safe and peaceful experience.
For daily or regular consumption, opt for a low dosage, around 100 mg/10ml, especially if you are starting. If used more frequently, choose intermediate to high dosages (depending on your experience) for more marked effects.
