Terpene Tuesday: Phytol

I bet you all thought we would run out of terpenes for #TerpeneTuesday but we haven't yet...so Happy #TerpeneTuesday lil buddhas!!! So lets talk about #Phytol. Phytol is a terpene that results from the degradation of chlorophyll. Aside from its presence in cannabis, phytol can also be found in green tea and when consumed, can help reduce pain and relieve inflammation. Phytol inhibits the enzyme that degrades the neurotransmitter GABA (contributes to motor control, vision, and many other cortical functions. It also regulates anxiety) , which may partially account for its relaxing effect. THIS is (one of) the terpenes that helps your mind and body into low gear. . . . #buddhabox #curatedcannabis #terpenefunfacts #weednerd #CannabisCommunity #stonerculture #litlife #terpenes #themoreyouknow #weedfunfacts #yoGABA #weed #cannabis #ganja
