This blog explores terpenes as natural compounds that may help combat chronic inflammation. It highlights β-caryophyllene (BCP), found in black pepper, hops, and cannabis, for its unique ability to bind with CB2 receptors, offering anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effects without psychoactive impact. Other terpenes like limonene, linalool, myrcene, and pinene are also discussed for their role in reducing inflammation and supporting overall wellness.
