Copaiba Oil

Overview

Copaiba Oil

Copaiba oil comes from a tree native to the amazon particularly the Copaifera genus. It has been used for centuries by the indigenous people of the amazon to treat a variety of issues. 

Known to reduce pain, inflammation, boost respiratory health, and as a powerful anti-bacterial/fungal agent copaiba oil weighs in on its medicinal benefits.

Copaiba oil has one of the highest concentrations of Betacarophyllene which is present in CBD that helps restore homeostasis to the body. 

CBD has about 30% BCP while Copaiba boasts up to 55% making it a much more efficient and richer source of that all important BCP necessary to heal the body. It works directly on the CB2 receptors of body which are responsible for regulating the endocrine system and maintaining balanced internal system.

Source

I brought this batch of copaiba oil back with me from Peru. I make sure that anything I provide is natural and sustainably harvested. There are no preservatives nor pollutants in my products. 

The difference in copaiba oil and copaiba oleoresin lies in the distillation process, the essential oil is extracted through distillation and results in having a concentrated form of the oil. In some cases this may be useful, however, in my experience I have found that the constituents that are actually removed in the extraction process leads to the balance and vitality of the medicine itself. 

Therefore, I chose to present the oleoresin with all of its constituents intact to keep the balance of the purity of the medicinal qualities of the oil itself. It is another one of those must-haves in my traveling medicine bag. Ive used it to treat my eczema and other skin issues with great success.
