Description
Directions & Safety
Warnings & Disclaimer
Beta-caryophyllene (BCP) is a naturally occurring terpene found in various plants, including black pepper, cloves, rosemary, hops, and cannabis. It is distinguished by its earthy, spicy, and woody aroma. What makes BCP particularly interesting is its ability to interact with the body’s endocannabinoid system by binding to CB2 receptors, which are primarily located in the immune system. This interaction gives BCP its anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, making it a valuable component in both medicinal and culinary applications. Unlike many other terpenes, BCP does not produce psychoactive effects, making it a promising candidate for therapeutic use in reducing pain, inflammation, and anxiety.
