CBD, or cannabidiol, has become incredibly popular in recent years. It's touted as a cure-all wellness product that can help with everything from anxiety to chronic pain. CBD cocktails like Jeng are a tasty way to consume CBD. But how much CBD should you actually take to feel the benefits? Let's break it down.

Is CBD Safe?

The first question many people have is - is CBD even safe? The short answer is yes! Here's why:

• CBD is a natural compound found in hemp and cannabis plants. It's not synthetic or artificial.
• Numerous studies have shown that CBD is generally well tolerated and considered safe for most people. Side effects are rare and mild.
• CBD is non-intoxicating, meaning it doesn't cause the "high" feeling associated with THC, the psychoactive compound in cannabis.
• The World Health Organization has stated that CBD exhibits no effects indicative of abuse or dependence potential.
• CBD is legal in many places, as long as it's derived from hemp containing less than 0.3% THC.

So rest assured, CBD is considered a safe, non-toxic substance for human consumption according to current research. As with any new product, it's always a good idea to consult your doctor if you have any concerns.

How Much CBD is Safe?

When it comes to CBD dosage, more does not necessarily mean better effects. The optimal dosage of CBD depends on a lot of factors, including your body weight, reason for use, genetics, and more.

Here are some CBD dosage guidelines to give you an idea of safe starting amounts:

• For general wellness benefits - 10-20mg per day
• For mild symptoms - 20-40mg per day
• For moderate symptoms - 40-60mg per day
• For severe symptoms - 60-80mg per day

To put these numbers into perspective, a single serving of a CBD cocktail like Jeng contains 11mg of CBD.

It's best to start low and increase slowly over time until you find the dosage that works for you. Always follow product instructions and talk to your doctor for medical advice.

How to Take CBD

One of the great things about CBD is that there are tons of options for how to take it. CBD cocktails are an easy, tasty way to get your CBD fix. But there are also other popular methods:

CBD Oils and Tinctures

CBD oils and tinctures are made by extracting CBD from hemp into a carrier oil, like coconut or hemp seed oil. You take them using a dropper, placing drops under your tongue and holding for 30-90 seconds before swallowing. Oils and tinctures allow for easy measurement of dosage.
CBD Edibles

CBD edibles include things like gummies, chocolates, baked goods, and candies infused with CBD oil. They are one of the most popular ways to take CBD because they are discreet and tasty. Dosages for edibles are pre-measured.

CBD Capsules

CBD capsules contain a precise CBD dosage in an easy pill form. They provide consistent, pre-measured doses and are easy to add to any daily supplement regimen.

CBD Topicals

CBD topical products like creams, balms, and lotions are designed to be absorbed through the skin for localized effects. They are great for soothing skin or easing stiff, achy joints and muscles when applied directly to problem areas.

Vaping CBD

Inhaling CBD vape oils with a vaporizer allows CBD to enter the bloodstream quickly for faster effects. However, vaping comes with potential respiratory risks.

CBD Beverages

In addition to cocktails, CBD is showing up in all kinds of beverages, like coffees, teas, sodas, and more. They are a convenient way to sip CBD throughout the day.

The method you choose comes down to your preferences and needs. You may even want to combine multiple methods to get the maximum benefits.

What About Drug Interactions?

Before taking CBD, it's important to consider potential drug interactions if you take any medications. Some possible interactions to be aware of include:

 

• Blood thinners - CBD may increase blood thinning and require reduced medication dosage.
• Benzodiazepines for anxiety - CBD may increase sedation effects.
• Immunosuppressants - CBD could increase immunosuppressant amount in bloodstream.
• Anticonvulsants for epilepsy - CBD could affect liver metabolism of some anticonvulsant meds.
• Cardiac medications - CBD may lower blood pressure.
• Antidepressants - CBD may enhance serotonin effects.
• Sedatives and opioids - CBD may increase sedation.
• Antibiotics - CBD could impact drug metabolism.

If you take any medications, discuss CBD use with your doctor and monitor side effects closely. They may need to adjust medication dosages if necessary.

Other CBD Questions

Here are answers to some other common CBD questions:

How long does it take for CBD to work?

CBD effects are usually felt within 15-30 minutes of ingestion and peak at around 2-3 hours. Effects can last up to 4-6 hours.

What does CBD feel like?

CBD is more about what you don't feel. You may notice the lifting of brain fog, relaxation of muscles, absence of pain, or improvement in mood. Many report a subtle sense of calm and focus.

Can you take too much CBD?

Taking extremely high doses of CBD may cause some mild side effects like drowsiness, nausea, diarrhea, and changes in appetite or mood. Very high doses may be less effective than moderate doses.

Does CBD show up on a drug test?

Pure CBD isolates should not cause a positive drug test. However, full spectrum CBD products contain trace amounts of THC that could potentially show up.

Can I give CBD to my pet?

While more research is still needed, current evidence suggests CBD can safely benefit dogs and cats. Always use pet-specific products and follow dosing guidelines.
