1. Product Introduction: Olivetol is a natural polyphenolic compound found in lichens or produced by certain insects. It is a naturally occurring compound initially developed through the degradation of usnic acid (also known as D-cerosol acid and pentanoic acid) extracted from lichen plants, primarily used for laboratory development and chemical production. Olivetol exhibits various biological activities. This organic compound belongs to the resorcinol family and has a structure similar to the well-known cannabinoid CBD (cannabidiol). Olivetol plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of cannabinoids, making it an essential component of CBD production. During specific enzymatic reactions in cannabis plants, they produce cannabinoids. Olivetol acts as a precursor in this process, aiding in the synthesis of various cannabinoids, including CBD. This remarkable compound is a vital part of other cannabinoid conversions, adding complexity and diversity to the chemistry of cannabis plants.
2. Features:
(1) High Purity: Through refined production processes, high-purity olivetol can be obtained. High purity means better bioavailability and fewer adverse reactions.
(2) Safety: Olive oil alcohol has been proven to be safe for human use.
(3) Stability: Olivetol has good stability and maintains its activity and efficacy under different environmental and storage conditions.
3. Applications: Although less famous than its cannabinoid relatives, olivetol has potential uses. Preliminary studies suggest that olivetol may alleviate pain and discomfort. Additionally, olivetol has shown promise as a possible natural alternative to combat microbial infections.
