Hey everyone, Sid here. I was digging into some plant chemistry today and wanted to talk about humulene. If you’ve ever caught a whiff of something deeply earthy, woody, and faintly hoppy, you’re likely smelling this terpene. It makes sense, too, since humulene is also found in hops, sage, and ginseng. When it comes to how it interacts with us, humulene is commonly associated with appetite suppression. It’s also often discussed for potential anti-inflammatory properties, especially alongside caryophyllene, according to a paper by Russo, E.B. (2011) in the British Journal of Pharmacology. If you want to seek it out, strains like White Widow, Girl Scout Cookies, and Headband are often high in it. What are your thoughts on humulene? I'm not a doctor — this isn't medical advice, just what's commonly reported. Talk to a healthcare provider about what's right for you.
