"Ōdinus" C#5

Humulene Aroma: earthy Also found in: coriander, ginger, sage, clove, l, spearmint and ginseng, and found in high concentrations in hops (humulus lupulus) Medicinal properties: anti inflammatory, anti carcinogenic, analgesic, antibacterial and antiviral Humulene is closely related to BCP from a molecular point of view (its original name is actually alpha-caryophyllene), and actually might perform better when in the presence of BCP – further supporting the entourage effect theory. Its aroma is often described as earthy and woody, sometimes associated with the “hoppy” aroma of beer. It is found in high concentrations in hops (humulus lupulus), from which its name is derived. Additionally the hops plant is a close cousin of the cannabis plant as both are part of the cannabaceae family, so the fact that they both produce humulene, beta-caryophyllene, and myrcene is of little surprise. Humulene is considered to be a strong anti-inflammatory and analgesic agent, suggesting potential benefits for both local and systemic pain (especially inflammatory pain). It also showed anticancer activity in preliminary research, and there are some anecdotal reports of appetite suppression and weight loss, which could greatly affect obesity and metabolic conditions. Cannabis strains with notably high levels of humulene include GSC (fka Girl Scout Cookies), Headband, White Widow, Pink Kush, Bubba Kush, Super Lemon Haze, Sour Diesel, and Skywalker OG
