Every region of the world has a “cure-all”. Locals use it for everything. In Brazil, they tap a huge, 100-foot tall, “Diesel tree” to extract the Amazon’s cure-all. It’s called Copaiba and it is possibly the single most powerful anti-inflammatory in all of nature or medicine. Which is crazy because it has very little smell or taste. I have been using it in veggie capsules instead of ibuprofen because it has been shown to block pain and inflammation signals, and you don’t get the side effects that pills cause like ulcers or intestinal bleeding. I added it to a capsule with Frank for one of Wendy’s headaches. I combine it with fennel in a capsule for her monthly cramps (it’s always something with her).
Why do I care? Well, inflammation is part of the body’s immune response. Infection or tissue damage triggers the inflammation. Then local cells sound the alarm and an entirely different set of cells come charging in to fight the infection or rebuild damaged tissue. In the short term this is good, but long term it’s bad.
Chronic inflammation is the seed of…
1) Rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, asthma, and multiple sclerosis.
2) The 3 most deadly diseases – heart disease, cancer, and COPD.
3) Chronic pain disorders also have an inflammatory component… Arthritis, Fibromyalgia, Lupus, Crohn’s, and Multiple Sclerosis are just a few
What Makes Copaiba So Special?
Chemically, Copaiba is very high in B-Caryophyllene, an FDA-approved food additive, which is also in other oils like Clove but in Copaiba – it is by far the highest of any known essential oil. B-Caryophyllene is a Sesquiterpene. Sesquiterpenes have been shown to increase the health of cells and increase oxygen in the carrying ability of our blood. They cross the blood-brain barrier and have properties like hemoglobin in that they can carry oxygen molecules throughout the body and into the cells themselves.
Medical Uses of Copaiba? A diuretic, a laxative, and a stimulant, it is good for congestion, and mucus buildup, and is anticarcinogenic (cancer fighter). Like other oils, Copaiba has the ability to bring the body into homeostasis – so if you do not need a laxative or stimulant effect – don’t worry – you won’t get that action.
It is also great for, respiratory problems (bronchitis, sinusitis), skin disorders, urinary tract, bladder, and kidney problems like cystitis and infection) sore throats, stomach ulcers, tonsillitis, tumors, herpes, gonorrhea, pain and insect bites. Add to that a ton of strong research about it killing bacteria, parasites, and certain types of cancer.
