Cannabis for Inflammation
Caryophyllene is a breakthrough anti-inflammatory compound — the only terpene that directly activates CB2 cannabinoid receptors. Combined with humulene, it showed anti-inflammatory effects comparable to dexamethasone (a powerful corticosteroid) in preclinical studies.

The Science
Caryophyllene is a CB2 agonist comparable to dexamethasone. Humulene inhibits COX-2. Myrcene blocks COX pathways. Pinene inhibits NF-kB. Bisabolol suppresses TNF-alpha and IL-6.
Supporting Research
Beta-caryophyllene is a dietary cannabinoid
Gertsch, J. et al.
PNAS (2008)
BCP selectively activates CB2 receptors for inflammation reduction without psychoactive effects.

Fernandes, E.S. et al.
Eur J Pharmacol (2007)
Both reduced COX-2 and iNOS expression; effects comparable to dexamethasone.
