This Cannabis Micro-Tolerance Guide helps you understand why THC sensitivity changes and what you can do to manage it. Some people feel strong effects from very small doses, while others require more to reach the same experience. Sensitivity shifts over time due to frequency, product type, metabolism, and stress levels. This guide explains how to adjust your sessions to maintain balance and comfort.
What Is THC Micro-Tolerance?
Micro-tolerance refers to how sensitive you are to THC at low doses. Two milligrams may feel intense for one person but barely noticeable for another. The Cannabis Micro-Tolerance Guide shows how to track your reactions and find your ideal range.
Why Sensitivity Changes
Your body’s endocannabinoid system adapts to THC exposure. As a result, frequent use can raise your tolerance. Breaks, stress, hydration, and diet can lower it. Because these factors shift day to day, your response may vary more than you expect. <!– IMAGE 2 –>

How to Reset Your Tolerance
A short tolerance break—often two to five days—can restore sensitivity for many people. During your break, focus on hydration, healthy meals, and good sleep. These habits support your endocannabinoid system. When you resume consumption, start with a much lower dose than before.
How to Find Your Ideal Dose
Start with the smallest amount possible. For edibles, this may mean cutting a piece into tiny portions. For inhalation, take one small puff and wait at least ten minutes. Increase slowly only if needed. This method helps you avoid uncomfortable highs while maximizing flavor and enjoyment.
Track Your Responses
A simple journal helps you observe patterns. Note the dose, product type, terpene profile, and effects. Over time, you’ll see what supports your comfort and what feels too strong.
