CBD Oil vs Doterra's Copaiba
Copaiba oil is extracted from the resin of copaiba trees found in the Amazon rainforest.
Copaiba oil's main chemical component is beta-caryophyllene, a chemical similar to cannabinoids found in cannabis (in CBD oil) that may protect nerve cells and have benefits for the cardiovascular and immune systems. However, while caryophyllene is responsible for some of the bioactive properties of Copaiba oil, many of the other properties of the oil are thanks to the diterpenes uniquely found in Copaiba oil.
If you are wondering how effective is Copiaba as compared to CBD, based on scientific research it is extremely effective. Copaiba also come in convenient softgels that can be taken very easily and has the same components as the oil.
