Can you take too much CBD (cannabidiol)? is a question that often comes up. You may, or may not, know that smoking too much marijuana can cause you to “white-out”. When you “white out” you are left feeling or being sick, quiet and pretty rubbish. As cannabidiol and marijuana come from the cannabis plant you might be concerned that CBD could make you “white-out”.

Can you whitey on CBD?
Cannabidiol does not contain the psychoactive part of the plant, THC. THC is what leaves users feeling “high” and giving them the potential to “white-out”.
For CBD oil to become anywhere near toxic you need about 2000mg of it in quick succession. That’s a pretty high number. This is because cannabidiol is generally tolerated by humans.
If you’ve got a CBD e-liquid or a pack o gummies, you might find yourself easily slamming them. Even though CBD won’t become lethal you don’t want to go overboard.
For one, CBD isn’t cheap. If you’re slamming the cannabidiol e-juice because you are enjoying vaping then consider getting a basic e-liquid from Vape and Juice. If you’re enjoying the gummies because you are peckish then get a pack of Haribo!
Possible side effects of cannabidiol
When you decide to take the cannabinoid it is advised to speak with a physician to hear their views and consider your medical background. Using cannabidiol in high doses or for a long period of time can potentially cause the following:
- Lightheadedness
- Dry mouth (particularly with vaping)
- Sedation
If you experience any negative side effects from cannabidiol then it is advised that you stop taking it. While you can’t take too much CBD you might have a personal reaction so it is best to cease use.
How should I take it?
How you take CBD is a personal choice. You might vape e-liquid or dry herb flowers. Other ways include eating it in foods such as CBD brownies or cakes or dropping it on your tongue using tincture drops.
How much should I take
While you can’t take too much CBD you should consider how much to take. As a beginner, we advise starting on a lower dose and working your way up to a sweet spot. Everyone has different tolerances to the cannabinoid so go with how it makes you feel, not how much your mate takes.
