Humulene is no stranger to modern biomedical research, including studies on black pepper, hops, and ginseng. Humulene also plays a role in pharmacokinetics—the study of how the body absorbs, distributes, metabolizes, and excretes drugs—showing potential to be distributed rapidly throughout the body via both oral and topical absorption of an oil derived from the tropical plant black sage (Cordia verbenacea). Oil from this plant has also shown anti-inflammatory, antifungal, and antibacterial properties. This is the go-to terpene for Arthritic Pain.

Limonene has immense potential therapeutic benefits, such as promising evidence for limonene’s anti-tumor effects. In studies, limonene inhibited the growth of skin and mammary tumors. These studies were followed up with a Phase I human clinical trial which found that limonene was very effective at reducing cancer tumor growth for nearly a year. Later studies found that daily limonene supplementation for 2-6 weeks silenced a protein that promotes breast cancer tumor growth. Additional reports have revealed benefits of limonene in laboratory models of lung cancer and brain cancer by causing tumor cell death. This terpene can't be beat when it comes to treating Cancer and Depression.

Why would so many different plants produce Linalool? Its anti-microbial properties are protective for the plant and represent a potential therapeutic use in people. Whether it was used as an early antibiotic is unknown, but linalool (often in the form of lavender or peanut stems and leaves) has been used in traditional medicine practices for its sedative and anti-epileptic properties. Linalool also 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. Linalool prevents this shift, and in doing so, prevents the stress-induced changes. Linalool is indispensible when it comes to treating Anxiety & Seizure Disorders.
