Cannanda Issues Health Warning Regarding the Use of Copaiba Essential Oil as a Beta-Caryophyllene Supplement
As beta-caryophyllene (BCP) gains mainstream popularity for its health benefits, Cannanda, the global leader in BCP-based products, warns consumers of the hidden dangers of ingesting copaiba essential oilโand offers a safer, clinically-formulated alternative with its clean, food-grade Cannanda CB2 oils.

TORONTO, ON โ June 1, 2025ย โ With growing interest in natural remedies for chronic pain, inflammation, anxiety, and sleep issues, beta-caryophyllene (BCP) has rapidly gained recognition as a powerful compound in the wellness community. Consumers searching for effective, natural alternatives are increasingly turning to BCP-based solutions. But as demand rises, so do misconceptionsโespecially around the use of copaiba essential oil as a BCP supplement.
Cannanda, the worldโs leading brand for beta-caryophyllene products and creators of the top-selling CB2 oil line, is issuing an educational alert to consumers: not all BCP products are created equal, and copaiba essential oil is not a safe way to supplement with BCP.
The Rise of BCP: Why Everyoneโs Talking About Beta-Caryophyllene
-
BCP is a terpene found in many plants, most notably black pepper, cloves, and hemp.
-
Itโs the first known dietary cannabinoid to directly activate the CB2 receptorโwithout any psychoactive effects or binding to CB1 receptors like THC.
-
Activating the CB2 receptor is linked to:
-
Reduced inflammation
-
Pain relief
-
Better immune response
-
Improved mood and sleep
-
Enhanced healing and recovery
-
-
BCP is gaining popularity as a natural solution for arthritis, fibromyalgia, stress, and chronic pain.
Copaiba Essential Oil: The Risky Shortcut
Despite its growing popularity in wellness circles, copaiba essential oil is not a safe way to get your daily dose of BCP. While it does contain beta-caryophyllene, Cannanda warns against its internal or even topical use for several reasons:
โ ๏ธ Contains hepatotoxic compounds
-
Copaiba oil contains diterpenes, a class of compounds that can be toxic to the liver (hepatotoxic) when ingested or absorbed through the skin.
-
Essential oils are not safe for consumption, and copaiba oils can vary significantly in quality and composition.
โ ๏ธ Not designed for daily use
-
Essential oils are highly concentrated plant extracts meant for aromatherapy or external useโnot internal or daily therapeutic use.
-
Misuse can lead to toxicity, especially when applied to the skin, which acts like a sponge and allows rapid absorption into the bloodstream.

Your Skin Is a SpongeโHereโs Why That Matters

-
Joint pain and inflammation
-
