1/4 "serving size" (if you will) isn't homeopathic, ~~and aligns pretty closely with the recommended dose of the only FDA approved CBD medication~~ (see edit below):
> Increase in weekly increments of 5 mg/kg/day (2.5 mg/kg twice daily).
Edit: I'm dumb and mixing mg and mg/kg. This would be 400mg/day for an average adult. Still not homeopathic.

Though the ~~recommended dose~~ (again, see edit below) for various activities does vary wildly:
> post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD): 1.5 mg
> difficulty sleeping: 300 mg
Edit: Turns out that's just the dosage that was administered during one of the studies, not necessarily the recommended treatment dosage.
> Despite these early findings and data from two case reports in which CBD improved sleep quality in a single pediatric patient with PTSD and four patients with Parkinson’s disease, we identified only one randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, study with sleep as the primary outcome measure. In this trial, 27 healthy volunteers received either oral CBD (300 mg dissolved in corn oil) or placebo. CBD did not alter any sleep measures (e.g., self-rated sleep quality or polysomnography examinations) relative to placebo.

We really need better studies of this stuff...
- dragonwriter 2y agoAre you mixing mg/kg with straight mg? You know the average patient weighs substantially more than 1kg, right?
- itishappy 2y agoYes. Damnit. Edited.
- ryaneager 2y agoNo, it doesn’t. That says 5 mg per kilogram of bodyweight per day. He’s having 1.25 mg total per day.
