Terpene Spotlight: Bisabolol ~ The Healing Terpene
Bisabolol (also known as a-bisabolol or levomenol) is one of many aromatic, healing terpenes found in cannabis. It has a sweet, floral smell and is found in highest concentrations in chamomile and the bark of Brazil’s candeia tree. It has been used in cosmetics for centuries for its skin-soothing abilities. Scientists now know that it also has anti-irritant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-microbial properties.
The health and beauty industries primarily use it in topical formulas like skin cream, shampoo and lotions. It promotes healing, reduces irritation, fights bacteria and even helps prevent sun damage.
It also facilitates the absorption of other compounds, making it an important participant in the synergy between cannabinoids and terpenes.
It can be found in strains like Harle-Tsu, Headband and AC-DC.
