Benefits & Ingredients
TERPENES
Terpenes are aromatic oils found in many plants. These oils contribute to the plant’s aroma and are thought to play a role in plant based health and protection.
The primary terpenes in Dragon are Menthol and Camphor. These naturally occurring compounds are well known for their analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties and have been used in medicine for centuries.
Menthol is known for its cooling sensation on the skin. It has pain-relieving properties based on its ability to block specific ion channels responsible for perceiving pain. It is particularly effective in alleviating muscle pain, joint pain, and inflammation-related discomfort.
Camphor also interacts with the body’s temperature receptors but instead of producing a cooling effect, it produces a warming effect. It too is known for its pain-relieving properties and combining these two terpenes enhances overall relief.
In addition to camphor and menthol, our formulation includes other beneficial terpenes such as humulene, pinene, myrcene, and nerolidol, each chosen to encourage a synergistic or entourage effect. This theory suggests that the combined effects of the active ingredients with additional plant-based compounds may enhance the overall wellness experience. This is a topic of ongoing research and there is more to be discovered about the expanded therapeutic benefits of plant-derived terpenes.
FULL SPECTRUM PLANT-BASED COMPOUNDS
The use of plants for therapeutic purposes dates back to ancient civilizations that recognized the value of natural elements. Our approach is inspired by this long-standing appreciation, coupled with a modern understanding and technology to extract the best nature has to offer.
Our products feature a spectrum of plant-based compounds in different formulas and concentrations to meet a variety of muscle and joint discomforts. By isolating the therapeutic properties of each ingredient and then combining them in the right formulations, you’re sure to find a solution that’s right for you.
Ongoing research continues to uncover the full potential of these rich, therapeutic compounds.
ENTOURAGE EFFECT
The term Entourage Effect refers to the synergistic relationship the plant’s compounds have with each other. In other words, when all of the plant-based ingredients work in harmony, the result produces a greater therapeutic effect than either would alone. Plants have been used for centuries for pain relief and complement one another when blended together.
