Terpenes:
Caryophyllene:
Caryophyllene is a spicy-scented, bicyclic sesquiterpene found in many plants like black pepper, cloves, and cannabis, and is unique for its ability to bind to the CB2 cannabinoid receptor, not the CB1 receptor. This interaction grants it therapeutic potential for anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, neuroprotective, and pain-relieving effects, impacting immune and nervous systems without producing the psychotropic effects of THC. Also known as a dietary cannabinoid, caryophyllene is approved as a natural flavoring by the FDA and is used in aromatherapy, food, and medicinal products.
Limonene:
Limonene is a naturally occurring chemical found in citrus fruit rinds, known for its pleasant lemon-like scent and flavor. It’s widely used in food flavorings, air fresheners, and cleaning products as a solvent and fragrance. While potentially offering health benefits like reducing inflammation and acting as an antioxidant, it can also cause skin and eye irritation, and it may interact with certain medications metabolized by the liver.
Humulene: Humulene (alpha-humulene) is a terpene found in hops, cannabis, and other plants like sage and ginseng, known for its earthy, woody aroma and potential anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties. It is also a contributor to the bitter flavor of beer and has shown promise in wound healing by promoting new blood vessel formation and potentially suppressing appetite. However, further research is needed to confirm its full therapeutic potential and to assess potential side effects like skin irritation or upset stomach from high concentrations.
