What is Alpha-Bisabolol?

Alpha-bisabolol, also known as bisabolol, is a natural terpene that is commonly found in a variety of plants, including chamomile, candeia tree, and Hemp. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid that has a sweet, floral scent and is commonly used in the cosmetic and skincare industry for its numerous benefits. Alpha-bisabolol terpene is not limited to simply skin care, however, it plays a major role in the overall adaptogenic ability of cannabis. This adaptogenic synergy allows dogs and cats to handle psychological and emotional stress in a natural way.

Terpenes like alpha-bisabolol are one of thousands of aromatic compounds that research has discovered in the plant world. They are not simply providing scent, but also when combined with the full spectrum extracts used in our products they create the effect known as the entourage effect. This means that the whole plant extract provides more therapeutic benefits than its individual parts. Bisabolol terpenes are found in many plants, but frequently in cannabis or hemp extracts. The ensemble effect that combines the medicinal compounds from cannabinoids and terpenes, like alpha-bisabolol terpene effects, allows for a stronger calming benefit for dogs and cats.
