First off it's More Than Getting High
People are looking towards cannabis to treat mental illnesses, such as anxiety, depression and insomnia. But how does one function in society while taking cannabis. With microdosing you won’t be affected by the high as much, so being able to take a daily dose and still function in society is still an option.

What is macrodosing?
Simply put, it’s intaking very small amounts of marijuana in order to still feel perceptible sensations. This can be done in many ways but the preferred method is taking the cannabis orally via marijuana tincture or by making cannabis butter and putting that into capsules.

Finding The Right Stain
An important aspect of microdosing is choosing the right stain of marijuana. While some strains will make you sleepy some can wake you up and give you the energy to make it through your day. Choosing a Sativa strain is great for someone that wants relief of depression or anxiety while an indica strain will help you with your everyday pain and mellow you out.
Personally I use sativa marijuana plants that help me thought the days. A few good strains to try out are, Lovin' Cup, Sour Diesel and Jack Herer. If you are looking more for a pain relief and to mellow out I would recommend trying an indica strain. I few indica strains I like are Granddaddy Purple, Bubba Kush and Northern Lights.

Sublingual Uptake V.S Infused Oils
Two common ways of microdosing are using a tincture sublingually like RSO (Rick Simpson Oil) or infuse an oil based product like butter, coconut oil and even olive oil then taking via capsule. Many people like to take their cannabis sublingually, matter of fact it the preferred method of treatment for many cancer patients. All though taking cannabis sublingually is not for everyone hence the reason we mention using an oil based infusion. I prefer using oil based infusions from my day to day life because of the simplicity and the fact I don't like the warm feeling when taking the RSO under my tongue.

Correct Dosing
Now that we have covered what microdosing is, finding the right strain and what options you have for consumption lets talk about choosing the correct dose. Well to simply put it there is no easy answer for this. The reason why is we are all different shapes and sizes with different brain chemistry makeups. Just like when trying anything new its important to start out small and work your way up. Don't forget this is microdosing, were not looking to get high but instead feel uplifted though out our day or just control daily aches and pains. I would recommend if using RSO oil to start by putting a small amount on your finger thats the size of a grain of rice. Like I said try a small dose first. If you don't feel like that was enough after 2 hours or so then go ahead and try a little more. Its best to try this on a day off from work just incase you accidentally take to much. For dosing with an infused oil I would suggest starting out with half a double zero capsule wait a couple hours and once again if you need more at that point than repeat the same dose and wait again. Continue experimenting around until you find a dose that relaxes you but does not get you stoned.
