Linalool and Myrcene are the prominent terpenes in this tincture and offer significant sedation benefits:
Body Relaxation: Linalool makes the immune system more resilient to the destructive effects of stress. Stress causes a shift in the distribution of white blood cells in the body (i.e., the cells of the immune system); the percent of lymphocytes decrease, and neutrophils increase.
Stress Reduction: Provides anesthetic-like effects that help reduce stress and prevent pain and inflammation. This terpene’s antimicrobial properties therapeutic use for the body is in fighting cell-damaging bacteria. These anti-mutagen effects are consistent with those of other terpenes, along with their anti-convulsant, anti-epileptic properties. One way is through blocking the receptors for the primary excitatory brain chemical, glutamate.
Anti-Inflammatory and Antioxidant: Limonene terpenes help reduce inflammation and provide anti-oxidant benefits interacting with endocannabinoid receptors to reduce inflammatory responses. Reduces inflammation by interacting with receptors in the body’s endocannabinoid system.
How It Works: Myrcene’s ability to help cannabinoids and terpenes get through the Blood-Brain Barrier and into the bloodstream more efficiently. Faster uptake = faster onset of effects. Eliminates stress and tension that contribute to allow more blood flow. More blood flow means wider distribution of the tincture. Myrcene works through several distinctive mechanisms:Enzyme Inhibition: Blocks the liver enzyme CYP2B1, which is responsible for aflatoxin’s DNA-damaging effects.
Multiple Therapeutic Effects: Offers a range of benefits, including anti-mutagen, anti-oxidant, anti-microbial, anxiolytic, and analgesic properties.
