Botanical Name: Copaifera reticulata, officinalis, coriacea, and langsdorffii
Copaiba, similar to Black Pepper, can help soothe anxious feelings and, when taken internally, supports a healthy immune and cardiovascular system.
Copaiba essential oil is derived from the resin of the copaiba tree which can grow upwards of more than 100 feet and can be found in tropical South America. Copaiba oil is widely used in cosmetic products including soaps, creams, lotions, and perfumes. Since the 16th century, copaiba essential oil has been utilized in traditional health practices by the natives of north and northeastern Brazil. Similar to Black Pepper essential oil, Copaiba can help soothe anxious feelings and it can be applied to the skin to promote a clear, smooth complexion.
Taken internally, Copaiba essential oil supports the health of the cardiovascular, immune, digestive, nervous, and respiratory systems. Although Copaiba does not contain psychoactive cannabinoids, the main component caryophyllene may be neuroprotective and have cardiovascular and immune benefits. It’s also a powerful antioxidant that promotes immune health.
“There is evidence to suggest that topical application of Copaiba may have biological activity in supporting health at the cellular level and in tissue remodeling.” Dr. David Hill

When Copaiba was first introduced, I have never heard of it before - when Dr. Hill went more and more in depth about this beautiful oil, I quickly realized how special it really is. It is affordable and a simple MUST HAVE in every home!
Did you know that Copaiba contains cannabinoids? There is so much hype out there about CBD oil but really when it comes to the effectiveness, it is more of a hit or miss.
Here is the reason why I think Copaiba is the better choice.
Copaiba contains cannabinoids but it does not contain psychoactive cannabinoids. The main cannabinoid component is beta-caryophyllene (BCP) which studies show can be neuroprotective and have cardiovascular and immune benefits. Copaiba is also a powerful antioxidant that promotes immune health. BCP is great because it does not interact with CB1 receptors. That means it won’t make us have a ‘drug high.’ It’s a cannabinoid that has influential effects on CB2 receptors and a host of promising therapeutic benefits. CB2 receptors help with your endocrine system and immune system.
Endocannabinoid System: Endocannabinoids and the receptors that they communicate with to induce physiological responses are found all throughout the body. Your brain, vital organs, immune cells, and even connective tissue contain endocannabinoid receptors, which are tasked with maintaining the stability of our body’s internal processes while dealing with fluctuations in the external environment. Immune response, inflammatory response, memory, and even appetite are influenced by these receptors. They are a vital link between the brain and the rest of the body, coordinating communication by different cell types.4 The CB2 receptor helps with calming and relaxing too but mostly through their ability to regulate inflammation.
Copaiba consists of more than just Caryophyllene. Unlike CBD oil, which is an isolate, you get the benefits of Copaiba as a WHOLE. The other part of Copaiba consists of chemicals such as copaene, bergamotene, and humulene. Research shows these chemical constituents have ability to boost immunity and support healthy inflammatory responses. The beautiful chemical make up of this oil is the reason, why so many people have such great success in addressing a myriad of symptoms. It is not a magic oil, but pretty close in my eyes. Just as Dr. Hill says, there is nothing out there in this World that will fix everything at all levels all the time. But at least we do have the power of essential oils in our back pockets to support our health needs.
