Rosemary oil is at least 35% 1,8 cineole (eucalyptol) that is a GABA agonist. More than any other essential oil I've taken, Rosemary Oil gets me feeling seriously drunk....
The eucalyptol terpene known for its antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties.
The concentration of1,8-cineole (also known as eucalyptol) in rosemary oil typically ranges between 38% and 55%
so I have to be careful. AI says:
The main active terpenes in rosemary oil (often comprising over 30 individual components) are1,8-cineole (eucalyptol),-pinene, and camphor.1,8-Cineole (eucalyptol) is a natural monoterpene thatacts as a positive modulator of the GABAergic system, contributing to anti-anxiety, antidepressant, and anti-seizure effects. It often acts onreceptors to reduce neuronal excitability, but its role in seizures can be complex. It also exhibits anti-inflammatory and TRPM8 agonist properties.Key Aspects of 1,8-Cineole and GABA/Neurological Function:
- GABAergic Modulation: 1,8-cineole can modulate the GABAergic system, which is crucial for reducing anxiety and managing epilepsy.
- Anxiolytic/Antidepressant: Studies indicate that 1,8-cineole has anxiolytic (anti-anxiety) and antidepressant-like effects, partly mediated by the
receptor.
