Beta-Myrcene

Beta-Myrcene is a naturally occurring compound. Beta-Myrcene is likely to induce sedative effects, calming. It potentially can aid in the easing of symptoms caused by chronic pain and inflammation. It can be used as a sleep aid and muscle relaxant. It is also found in hops. Produces the “mango effect”, an increase in the saturation level of the body’s CB1 receptors within the brain. The British Journal of Pharmacology along with the Swiss Federal Research Station for Agroecology and Agriculture conducted studies that suggest it acts as a sedative-analgesic and antioxidant.
