Using a scale for CBD crystals
The CBD crystalsshould be consumed in small quantities. Indeed, a dose of CBD powder is measured in milligrams. It is therefore not possible to judge with the naked eye and it is essential to weigh the crystals. Therefore, when you want to consume cannabidiol crystals, an accurate scale must be used.
How to measure CBD crystals?
The dosage of CBD crystals depends on the strength of the effects you are looking for, your weight and metabolism, your age and cannabidiol consumption habits. Thus, it is best to start with small amounts to get your body used to it and increase gradually.
In addition, it is recommended to start with a dose between 5 mg and 25 mg per day. The average dose of 10 mg is generally recommended. It is advisable to spread the consumption of CBD crystals throughout the day in order to spread the effects over 3 or 4 doses. For example, a final consumption of 10 mg corresponds to 4 doses of 2.5 mg.
You need to listen to your body to know the right dosage for you. Wait a few hours after your first consumption of CBD concentrate and observe the effects you feel. If they do not appear after 3 to 4 hours, you can increase the dose very slightly.
As soon as you start to feel the effects, you have reached a sufficient dosage. Stay at this dose of CBD crystals for about a week and listen to your body during this time.
If you feel the need, you can increase the dose of CBD crystals slightly after this adaptation period. But the changes in quantity must be subtle, do not rush! It is recommended to increase the dose of CBDcrystals in increments of 2 to 3 milligrams.
For example, you can change from taking 4 doses of 2.5 mg per day in the first week to 4 doses of 2.7 mg per day in the second week. It is important to observe the effects on your body in order to adjust the dose and achieve the desired effects.
What dose of crystals for my weight?
This is the amount of CBDcrystals recommended, depending on your weight and the strength of the effects you are looking for:

- strong effects: 18 to 30+ mg
Daily amount if you weigh between 30 and 45 kg :

Maximum amount of CBD crystals
The CBDcrystals do not contain THC and are not a toxic substance, so it is impossible to overdose. In the event that you overdose on CBDcrystals, you can be much more relaxed than desired and even feel tired. But once you have reached your maximum threshold, you will not be able to feel any further effects.
Even if it is not harmful to your body, there is no need to consume cannabidiol in large quantities, as it is a waste of product and therefore money.
