Cineole also known as
eucalyptol is an essential oil found in rosemary, eucalyptus and
cannabis. It is a monoterpene naturally found that is safe in low
concentrations. Cineole contributes to an “Entourage
Effect” to support other medicinal values of marijuana.
Cineole helps the
blood-brain barrier to allow other cannabinoids to penetrate more
readily into the bloodstream.(Source)
This allows it to aid in topical applications for pain and
inflammation.(Source)
It has also shown to help with circulation.(Source)
Cineole affects the GABA
receptors of the brain creating a balance in mood.(Source)
Cineole is known to have a spicy,
camphor scent that is refreshing like rosemary. It is generally found
more in sativa
strains being known to give energy and an uplifting effect.
Strains like Super
Silver Haze, ChemDawg,
and Bubba
Kush are known to be high in eucalyptol.
