At this dose, your bottle should last approximately 50 days.
The 500mg Discovery Oil is perfect for those embarking on their CBD journey; it’s a great way of exploring the benefits of CBD starting at a low dose. Whilst we provide personalised recommended doses for our higher-strength oils, the 500mg oil is designed to be simple and will help you get started.
The 500mg Discovery Oil should last you around three weeks using the advice in step 2. Following on from the Discovery Oil we recommend choosing a higher-strength, this means taking less oil at each dose making it more easily and efficiently absorbed, plus your bottle will last you longer.

Dosage calculator questions
Why use a dosage calculator?
You are unique, both in your genetic make-up and how you respond to CBD. Getting your CBD dose right for your individual needs can make all the difference to bringing relief and ease to unwanted symptoms, whilst ensuring you're not spending more than you need to.
How do I use the dosage calculator?
Our calculator makes it nice and easy to find your personalised recommended dose, simply enter your body weight, symptom severity, and CBD potency to view your results. We also show you guidance on building to your recommended dosage incrementally and gradually.
How do I know which potency oil to use?
If you're new to CBD we'd suggest choosing 1000mg to discover your personalised recommended dose. Whilst we recommend a lower potency oil to get started it's worth noting that even those new to CBD can use a stronger oil like 2000mg or 3000mg, it just means you take a fewer mls of oil each day to achieve the same dose. The calculator shows this nicely, try changing the potency to see this.
You'll notice we do things a little differently with our 500mg Discovery Oil as it is all about discovering CBD so you'll find general guidance for everyone using this.
New to CBD?
We recommend our 500mg Discovery Oil for those embarking on their CBD journey or curious about whether CBD will work for them; it’s a great way of exploring the benefits of CBD starting at a low dose yet still providing the desired effects of this natural product. Whilst we provide personalised recommended doses for our higher-strength oils, the 500mg oil is designed for simplicity to get you started. Using the dosage calculator you’ll see the guidance for everyone using the Discovery Oil.
Used CBD before?
If you've used CBD before or you're following on from the 500mg Discovery Oil we recommend selecting a higher-strength oil. Even those new to CBD can choose an oil with a stronger potency, it simply means you take a fewer mls of oil each day to achieve the same dose; for example 2ml of our 500mg oil is equivalent to 0.5ml of the 2000mg. A smaller quantity of oil is more effectively absorbed, you may also find it easier to take and the bottle will last longer.
Try adjusting the dosage calculator to see the how much oil is recommended for each strength of oil and how long the different potency bottles would last you.
Graduated pipette for easy dosing
All our oils come with a graduated pipette for super easy dosing. With markings from 0.1ml to 1ml, each and every dose can be measured accurately.

Q&A on CBD dosage
What's the best CBD dosage?
Determining the best CBD dose depends on various factors, including individual factors such as body weight, metabolism, tolerance, and the specific condition being addressed. There is no one-size-fits-all dose for CBD.
It is generally recommended to start with a low dose and gradually increase until the desired effects are achieved. A typical starting dose for adults is around 20 mg of CBD per day. However, some people may find relief with lower doses, while others may require higher doses.
It's important to note that CBD affects individuals differently, and it may take some trial and error to find the optimal dose for your specific needs. Additionally, it's crucial to follow the dosage instructions provided by the manufacturer of the specific CBD product you are using. Different products may have different concentrations and potency, so it's important to read and follow the recommended dosage guidelines.
Monitoring your response to CBD and adjusting the dose accordingly can help you find the best CBD dose that works effectively for you. It's advisable to start low, be patient, and gradually increase the dose as needed while paying attention to how your body responds.
Our dosage calculator helps you to find your best CBD dose and shows you how to build up to this dose incrementally over time. It's easy to use and you'll have your results immediately.
What's the best CBD dose to start?
The best starting dose for CBD can vary depending on individual factors such as body weight, metabolism, sensitivity to CBD, and the specific condition being addressed. It's generally recommended to start with a low dose and gradually increase as needed.
For most adults, a typical starting dose is around 20 mg of CBD per day. This dose can be divided into smaller servings throughout the day. Starting with a lower dose allows you to assess your body's response and gauge the effects of CBD on your system.
It's important to note that CBD affects individuals differently, and what works for one person may not work the same way for another. Some individuals may find relief with lower doses, while others may require higher doses to achieve the desired effects.
