daily dose

Everyday prescribed amount

A daily dose is the amount of medication, vitamins, or other substance taken each day: Take your daily dose with food.

The phrase extends to regular portions of anything consumed habitually—news, exercise, humor: my daily dose of coffee, your daily dose of inspiration.

The implication is that the thing is beneficial or at least necessary, like medicine.
