CBG Dosage: How Much CBG Should You Take? 

There isn’t a one size fits all amount of CBG to take for symptoms or relief. Depending on your own chemical makeup and the quality of the product, everybody will be affected differently.

It’s always recommended to start low and slow and work your way up to the dosage that works best for you. Each brand or manufacturer should have a label with the percentage of how much CBG is in the product. For example, with Medical Mike’s 600mg Full Spectrum CBG oil, our label reads, “600mg of CBG per bottle; 10mg CBG /.5 ml per serving (half dropper).”

For those seeking a extra strength CBG oil, Medical Mikes offers a 1:1 ratio full spectrum CBG:CBD oil with a total of 2000mg.

Always look for the product's recommended dose and start with the lowest dose. Gradually introducing the product will help your system get used to the compound and help avoid potential side effects.

Factors That Affect How Much CBG You Should Take

If you are wondering how much CBG you should take, consider these important factors. Again, everybody is different. How you may feel after taking CBG could be completely different than someone else. That’s why it’s important to start slow and build your way up. 

• Potency

• Severity of your condition 
• Experience using CBG

• Overall health
   

Recommended CBG Dosage for Different Daily Functions

CBG is a fairly new product on the market. We want users to feel safe using CBG because of the benefits it offers. 

Here are a few recommended CBG dosages for different daily functions. 

How Much CBG to Take to Help Exercise Recovery?

Whether you are getting back in the gym for the first time in months or going 5 times in one week, your muscles are going to be sore. Exercise increases the tension of your muscles to help build them up. Recovery helps relieve that tension and is just as important. 

Athletes can use CBG extract to support muscle recovery. CBD is well-known for its potential anti-inflammation properties but research shows that CBG may be more effective. 

Users should take 2.5 to 25mg of CBG post-workout to help your body recover from exercise. 

How Much CBG to Take When You’re Stressed?

Everyone deals with stress. Whether you are a line cook at dinner rush or a college student trying to make a deadline you know the feeling. Feeling stressed is never fun. And while there is no single fix to eliminate stress, CBG might be able to help. 

Studies show that CBG binds with endocannabinoid system receptors that alleviate anxiety. If you are feeling stressed, CBG can help calm your nerves. 

Taking 2 - 5mg a few times a day can help calm your nerves throughout the day. It’s important to remember that CBG extract won’t eliminate stress right away. It takes time to work but after an hour or so your body should feel more calm and relaxed. 

How Much CBG to Take Before Bed?

If you are tossing and turning and having trouble falling asleep at night, CBG might be able to help. We recommend taking 10 - 20mg of CBG an hour before you are going to bed to help your body unwind. 

By taking CBG an hour before bedtime, you give your body time to feel the effects. After an hour if you feel 10 - 20mg is not getting you the desired effects, feel free to take a little more. 

Sleep is essential for recovery. If you want to feel or perform at your best, you need a good night's sleep. 

Can You Take Too Much CBG?

Everything is good in moderation. Although CBG is a natural compound, if you take too much you may suffer from side effects. That’s why we recommend to start with a low dose and build your way up, once you know how it affects you. 

A few cbg side effects that you may notice are dry mouth, drowsiness, and increased appetite to name a few. Make sure to read the manufacturing label for the recommended dose before consuming CBG. 

Find a Dosage That’s Right for You 

As a newer cannabinoid, CBG isn’t widely available on the market just yet. However, a few brands – like Medical Mike’s – have generated high-quality CBG products sourced from New York organic hemp farms. If you've tried our full spectrum CBD oils then you've already encountered CBG, possibly without even knowing it. 

Regardless of the products you’ve tried, remember that dosing new products is essential to getting the result you want. The dosage you need for CBG varies based on your lifestyle, genetic makeup, product, and more. Experiment with the dosage to help find the one that works perfectly for you and your situation. 

CBG has shown little to no side effects and is proven to be well-tolerated by most people. As with any cannabis product, it’s important to show a trusted brand that provides third- party lab testing. Check out our CBG products at Medical Mikes and find your perfect dose from a reliable brand!
