Terpene’s Series: Beta-Caryophyllene

Have you ever heard of a terpene doing the job of a cannabinoid?

Beta-Caryophyllene has the ability to play the role of a cannabinoid through being capable of activating CB2 receptor sites within the endocannabinoid system. Activating the CB2 receptors reduces inflammation, which lessens pain and reduces damaging consequences caused by chronic inflammation.
