Ingredients

What is Hemp Extract?

Hemp extract is a concentrated form of the hemp plant. While it is related to the cannabis plant, it is not the same. Hemp has a high level of cannabidiol compounds (CBD) like cannabis, but low levels of psychoactive tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).  

In Unstoppable products, we use hemp oil that contains only aerial parts of the hemp plant (the parts that are completely exposed to air, including the leaves, flowers, and stems). This is because the aerial parts have the highest concentration of beneficial nutrients, cannabinoids, and terpenes.

Benefits of Hemp Extract

Most of hemp extract’s benefits come from its concentration of cannabidiol compounds, or CBD:

• Relieves pain. Studies show that hemp extract may reduce inflammation and pain in the joints with little to no side effects.
• Reduces anxiety and depression. Hemp extract mimics the effects of serotonin in the brain by binding to the receptors that regulate mood, sleep, and appetite. Studies show that this may lead to reduced rates of depression and anxiety.
• Improves skin quality. Hemp extract has positive effects on the skin, especially for inflammatory conditions like acne.
• Reduces seizures. One of hemp extracts earliest and most researched benefits is its ability to reduce seizuresin those with epilepsy.

What is Hemp Extract Used For?

Hemp extract has become a popular natural medicinal for a range of health conditions, including pain, inflammation, anxiety, depression, and skin conditions.

We use aerial hemp extract in both our CBD tinctures: AM Tincture: Focus + Endurance 1000MG CBD and PM Tincture: Rest + Recovery 1000MG CBD. In these formulations, the hemp extract provides pain relief and balances the nervous system. 

What is MCT Oil?

MCT oil is a dietary supplement popular among athletes for its ability to increase energy and control appetite. It is found most commonly in coconut oils, but can also be found in palm and other dietary sources. 

MCT stands for medium-chain triglyceride. These medium-length chains of fatty acids are more easily digested than the long chains of fatty acids found in foods like fatty fish, olive oil, nuts, and avocados. MCT oil can therefore be used as quickly, readily available fuel for the body. 

While MCT oil is often made from coconut oil, it’s not the same. Coconut oil contains other types of fatty acid chains and doesn’t have the same range of benefits as pure MCT oil. 

Benefits of MCT Oil

MCT oil has a wide range of potential benefits for any athlete or active individual. 

• Boosts energy. MCTs are digested quickly by the body, and can enter the cells as energy without having to be broken down by bile. This provides a reliable boost of energy and fuel, especially before a workout. MCTs can also pass through the blood-brain barrier and offer a quick source of energy for your brain cells.
• Promotes weight loss. MCT oil has great potential as a weight loss aid. Along with containing 10% fewer caloriesthan long-chain triglyceride fats, studies also show a few other reasons why MCT oil may help promote weight loss and encourage healthy weight management. First, MCT oil helps you feel fuller faster. It releases two hormones – peptide YY and leptin – which control your satiety and appetite. Studies show that those who consume MCT oil at breakfast tend to eat less food later in the day, compared to those who take coconut oil or no oils. Those who use MCT oil also notice a reduction in their weight and waist circumference, which suggests that MCT oil encourages weight loss.
• Increases fat metabolism. MCT oil may also encourage fat metabolism. MCTs are broken down into ketones by the liver, which can then be burned instead of sugar for energy. MCT oil is often used by those on a ketogenic diet, to keep the body in the fat-burning state of ketosis.
• Reduces lactic acid build-up. After a workout, lactic acid builds up in your muscles. This is what causes that dreaded muscle soreness that negatively impacts your ability to keep training at a high level. Studies show that those who take MCT oil before working out had lower lactate levels and reduced soreness.
• Helps manage diabetes. MCT oil helps your body burn more fat, which in turn can help manage blood sugar levelsfor those with diabetes. Studies show that people with diabetes who took MCT oil daily had weight loss, reduced waist circumference, and reduced insulin resistance.
• Reduces the risk of heart disease. The risk of heart disease is closely linked to obesity. Since MCT oil supports healthy weight management, it can also support your heart health. Studies show that taking MCT oil also reduces LDL “bad” cholesterol levels up to 12.5% while increasing the production of HDL, the “good” cholesterol that protects the heart. Other studies suggest that MCT oil supports the heart by keeping inflammation levels at bay. 

What is MCT Oil Used For?

MCT oil is most commonly used by athletes and active individuals who want to increase their energy and improve their performance. It is also used by those who are following a ketogenic diet to support the body’s fat-burning processes. It is also popular among people who are managing diabetes, heart disease, or Alzheimer’s disease. 

We include MCT oil in Unstoppable’s AM Tincture: Focus + Endurance 1000MG CBD and PM Tincture: Rest + Recovery 1000MG CBD to help support your recovery, energy, and performance.

What is Terpinolene?

Terpinolene is one of the cannabis plant’s 200 terpenes. Terpenes are natural chemical compounds that have protective effects and fragrant aromas. The unique combination of terpenes in a cannabis plant is what gives each strain its different flavors and medicinal benefits.

Terpinolene is found in many cannabis strains, but usually in small amounts. Unlike other terpenes that have a distinct flavor profile, terpinolene is multidimensional. You’ll notice floral, pine, herbaceous, and citrus notes. It is also found in plants like nutmeg, cumin, apples, tea tree, and lilac.

Benefits of Terpinolene

Terpinolene is said to have a fresh aroma and uplifting effect on the mind. Here are a few of its potential benefits: 

• Calms and uplifts the mind. Some studies suggest that terpinolene can help calm the nervous system to reduce issues like restlessness, insomnia, and anxiety.
• Supports the immune system. Studies show that terpinolene has antimicrobial and antifungal effects. This is why it is a popular ingredient in many soaps and cleansing products. Within the body, this terpene may support the immune system and the fight against microbes. 

What is Terpinolene Used For?

Because terpinolene has such an uplifting and fresh profile, it is often used in soaps, perfumes, and other personal care products. 

You’ll find terpinolene in both our AM Tincture: Focus + Endurance 1000MG CBD and PM Tincture: Rest + Recovery 1000MG CBD. In these tinctures, terpinolene helps calms the nervous system and supports whole body health.

What is Pinene?

Pinene is an aromatic terpene found in pine trees, rosemary, basil, orange peels, and cannabis plants. Terpenes are natural chemical compounds that give plants their unique flavors, scents, colors, and range of effects. Even within the cannabis species, different compositions of terpenes will give each plant a unique flavor.

Studies show that the pinene terpene offers a vibrant pine-like aroma and has powerful anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effects, among other benefits.

Benefits of Pinene

Terpenes like pinene are fragrant oils that give plants protective and adaptive properties. Now, research shows that they can help humans thrive, too. Here are some of the potential benefits of pinene:

• Reduces inflammation and pain.The cannabis plant contains many compounds that have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and pinene is one of them. Studies show that pinene has a particularly powerful anti-inflammatory effect on chondrocytes, or cartilage cells. Here, pinene inhibits the compounds that cause inflammation to help manage painful conditions like osteoarthritis.
• Opens the airways. Pinene’s clarifying and invigorating scent is a natural way to reduce congestion and open the airways. While it has been studied as a remedy for issues like asthma and allergic rhinitis, its effects may also help athletes improve their lung capacity and oxygenation.
• Relieves anxiety. Pinene and other terpenes have been studied for their potential to support brain health. The research suggests that pinene may help reduce anxiety and support more balanced moods.

What is Pinene Used For?

Pinene is commonly used to relieve pain and reduce inflammation. We use pinene in Unstoppable’s AM Tincture: Focus + Endurance 1000MG CBD for its invigorating and calming effects. Pinene helps to boost energy, reduce inflammation and pain, and encourage focus throughout the day.

What is Eucalyptol?

Eucalyptol, also called cineole, is a terpene most commonly found in eucalyptus trees. But, this compound is also found in the cannabis plant, bay leaves, tea tree, and sage. 
Terpenes are natural chemical compounds that give plants their unique flavors, aromas, and medicinal effects. The eucalyptol terpene has an unmistakable minty, cooling fragrance that has been used in aromatherapy, personal care products, and supplements.

Benefits of Eucalyptol

Eucalyptol is cooling, clearing, and calming. Its range of medicinal benefits have made it a popular ingredient for self-care and natural medicinal products. 

• Relieves pain and inflammation.Like many terpenes, eucalyptol is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. As a result, it may offer natural pain relief. Studies show that eucalyptol can successfully relieve inflammatory pain (like arthritis) as well as postoperative pain.
• Improves cognitive function. Eucalyptol can increase mental acuity and cognition. One study showed that dementia patients who took eucalyptol showed improved signs of brain function and scored better on the Dementia Behavior Disturbance Scale.
• Supports respiratory health. Eucalyptol has long been used as a natural remedy for sinus infections and allergies due to its congestion-clearing and antimicrobial properties. Some studies suggest that it can also help improve asthma. For the athlete, eucalyptol may improve performance by clearing the airways for deeper breathing.
• Helps manage chronic disease. Studies show that eucalyptol can play a supportive role for those who are managing chronic diseases like heart disease and dementia. Researchers believe this is due to eucalyptol’s anti-inflammatory and restorative properties.

What is Eucalyptol Used For?

Eucalyptol is a commonly used ingredient in wellness products, from soaps and bath salts to pain relief creams and supplements. 

Eucalyptol is an ingredient in Unstoppable’s AM Tincture: Focus + Endurance 1000MG CBD for its ability to relieve inflammation and stimulate the brain.

What is Wild Orange Essential Oil?

Essential oils are the concentrated volatile oils that are extracted from a plant. Wild orange essential oil comes from the extract of the rind of the wild sweet orange (Citrus sinensis). Orange oil has a bright and refreshing scent that makes it one of the most versatile essential oils available. 

Benefits of Wild Orange Essential Oil

Wild orange essential oil is a versatile oil with many benefits and potential uses. Here are some of the most common reasons people choose to use wild orange essential oil in their daily lives: 

• Relieves pain.While some essential oils may help increase circulation or clear inflammation to relieve pain, orange essential oil changes our perception of pain. Researchers believe orange essential oil eases stress and the pain response so we experience our pain as less severe.
• Enhances exercise performance.Orange essential oil may help you be a better athlete. In one study, athletes who inhaled orange essential oil had faster running times and increased lung capacity. 
• Improves mood and relieves anxiety.Orange oil (and many other citrus essential oils) is known for calming anxiety and lifting depression. To test this benefit, researchers looked at the effect this oil had on children stressed by having to go to the dentist. Children who were given orange oil aromatherapy before their visit had remarkably lower heart rates and stress hormone levels than the children who did not. Orange essential oil helps adults overcome anxiety, too. One study showed that women in labor who inhaled orange essential oil reported less anxiety than those who did not.
• Has antimicrobial properties.Citrus oils are well-known for their antimicrobial properties. Studies show that orange essential oil can stop bacterial and fungal growth, even in resistant strains.

What is Wild Orange Essential Oil Used For?

Wild orange essential oil is often used in aromatherapy to enhance mood and alleviate stress or depression. It is also commonly used in natural cleaning and personal care products.

Like a freshly squeezed glass of orange juice perks you up in the morning, our AM Tincture with wild orange essential oil helps boost your mood and energy so you’re ready to take on the day.

What is Peppermint Essential Oil?

Peppermint is more than a flavorful herb. It is a powerful natural medicinal, especially when used in its concentrated form – peppermint essential oil. 

Peppermint essential oil is extracted from peppermint leaves and has a potent minty, cooling aroma. It gets its flavor from two key compounds: menthol and menthone.

Benefits of Peppermint Essential Oil

Beyond smelling great, peppermint oil has a long list of potential health benefits. Here are a few of the ways peppermint essential oil can help you: 

• Relieves pain and tension. Peppermint oil is well-known for easing stress headaches and eye strain. Research shows that it can also relieve other types of pain. The menthol in peppermint essential oil increases circulation and has a natural analgesic effect, which makes it effective in relieving muscle pain and tension. 
  
• Improves attention and memory. Studies show that taking or inhaling peppermint essential oil has a positive effect on your brain. It can enhance your ability to store memories and improves your overall focus and attention.  
  
• Benefits the digestive system. Peppermint has been used for centuries to ease gastrointestinal disorders like IBS, nausea, abdominal pain, and constipation. Researchers believe this is because peppermint oil relaxes the smooth muscle of the GI tract and has natural anti-inflammatory properties. Peppermint essential oil may also support a healthy and diverse gut microbiome. 

What is Peppermint Essential Oil Used For?

Peppermint essential oil is one of the most widely used essential oils. Many people keep it in their natural medicine cabinets to ease upset stomachs, nausea, headaches, sinus congestion, and toothaches. It can also be applied to the skin to relieve itching and muscle aches, or in oral rinses for fresh breath.

Peppermint oil can also be diffused into the air as aromatherapy to relieve stress and tension, or fight brain fog and awaken the mind. Peppermint oil is an ingredient in Unstoppable Sports Recovery Gel to enhance pain relief and cool inflammation.

Peppermint’s ability to enhance focus is one of the key reasons we include peppermint essential oil in our AM Tincture: Focus + Endurance 1000MG CBD.

What is Pulegone?

Cannabis contains hundreds of different plant compounds, including 200 different types of terpenes. Terpenes are natural chemical compounds that give certain plants like cannabis, herbs, and citrus their varied flavors, scents, colors, and range of effects. Even within the cannabis species, different compositions of terpenes will give each plant a unique flavor. 

Pulegone is one of the therapeutic terpenes found in the cannabis plant and other herbs like peppermint, rosemary, and catnip. 

Benefits of Pulegone

Pulegone is believed to have positive therapeutic effects on the mind and body and is mostly known for its relaxing and sedative effects. Both scientific research and anecdotal evidence suggest pulegone may have the following benefits:

• Relieves pain. Pulegone has been shown to act as a natural analgesic, similar to menthol. It reduces pain and inflammation, especially for conditions like rheumatoid arthritis.
• Promotes relaxation. Pulegone may be effective in promoting a general sense of relaxation, while reducing anxiety and depression.

What is Pulegone Used For?

Pulegone and other terpenes are most commonly used to enhance aroma, flavor, and therapeutic effects. 

You’ll find this ingredient in our AM Tincture: Focus + Endurance 1000MG CBD. We chose to include pulegone because it encourages the relaxed, focused state you need to take on the day.

What is Myrcene?

Myrcene is a specific type of terpene – natural chemicals that give plants their unique fragrance, taste, and health properties. It is one of the most common terpenes found in the cannabis plant and gives it a spicy, peppery smell. Along with cannabis, myrcene is also found in plants like thyme, mango, lemongrass, and hops. Myrcene is best known for its calming effects.

Benefits of Myrcene

Like other terpenes, myrcene has several potential health benefits that stem from its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

• Promotes relaxation and sleep.
  Plants that contain myrcene (like cannabis and lemongrass) have been used by traditional medical systems as natural sleep aids for centuries. This compound is part of what makes certain CBD products helpful for anxiety and insomnia.
• Relaxes the muscles.
  In addition to relaxing the mind, myrcene may also help relax tight muscles. Studies show that it can act as a muscle relaxant in high doses, and may help ease tightness and tension even at lower doses.
• Relieves pain and inflammation. 
  Myrcene may play an important role in pain relief. Some studies show that myrcene increases the body’s natural production of opioid chemicals. Other studies show that this terpene has strong anti-inflammatory properties, which also help to reduce pain and soreness. 

What is Myrcene Used For?

Myrcene is mainly used in supplements for its calming effects and can help to encourage healthy sleep patterns and reduce anxiety. For these reasons, we include it in our PM Tincture: Rest + Recovery 1000MG CBD formula to help you enjoy more restorative, restful sleep.

What is Linalool?

Linalool is a common terpene found in flowers and herbs, like cannabis. It has an intense lavender-like aroma and gives cannabis its floral, spicy, woody scent. Linalool is also found in citrus plants, mint, basil, coriander, cinnamon, and several other plant varieties.

Benefits of Linalool

Terpenes like linalool are protective plant compounds that give a plant its unique smell and taste. Since they are usually antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory, they also offer many health benefits.

• Relieves anxiety. 
  Linalool is well-known for having a calming effect. Studies show that it can significantly reduce anxiety and stress levels, as well as promote sleep. This is likely due to linalool’s ability to lower the stress hormone cortisol and increase “feel-good” serotonin. This terpene may be particularly helpful for those who struggle with insomnia due to nighttime anxiety or racing thoughts.
• Reduces inflammation and pain. 
  Linalool has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects that help to relieve pain. Researchshows that using linalool also helps alleviate pain by increasing the body’s adenosine levels, which blocks pain signals from entering the brain. In one study, patients who were undergoing surgery were given a vaporized form of linalool. Afterward, this group used 50% less morphine to relieve pain after their operations than the control group who were not exposed to linalool. 

What is Linalool Used For?

Linalool’s aromatic smell and flavor make it a choice ingredient in many foods and personal care products. As does its ability to calm the mind. Unstoppable’sPM Tincture: Rest + Recovery 1000MG CBD contains linalool to promote relaxation and restful sleep so your body can heal.

What is Lavender Essential Oil?

Lavender essential oil is one of the most popular essential oils used in aromatherapy. It is distilled from the lavender plant, Lavandula angustifolia, which has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, detoxifying, and analgesic properties.

Along with being a popular choice for aromatherapy, lavender essential oil is also used topically and orally. It can be found in a wide range of supplements, fragrances, and personal care products.

Benefits of Lavender Essential Oil

Lavender is well known for its ability to calm the mind and promote relaxation. But it has many other potential uses as well:

• Reduces inflammation.
  Lavender essential oil has potent anti-inflammatory effects. Studies show that this essential oil slows or stops the inflammatory process by reducing proinflammatory cytokines and histamine. On the skin, this effect helps reduce symptoms like itching or infections; in the rest of the body, it may play a role in pain relief and gastrointestinal health.
• Relieves pain.
  Studies suggest that lavender essential oil is an effective complementary remedy for chronic pain, post-operative pain, internal pain, headaches, and other painful conditions.
• Calms anxiety.
  Lavender is perhaps best known for being a stress-relieving oil and mild sedative. Along with centuries worth of anecdotal evidence, research proves that lavender effectively reduces feelings of anxiety and high stress – even in tense situations.
• Improves the skin. 
  Lavender’s antimicrobial and antifungal properties make it an effective natural remedy for skin conditions like acne, eczema, uneven skin tone, and wrinkles. It is also known to speed up wound healing and prevent infection. 

What is Lavender Essential Oil Used For?

Lavender is a versatile essential oil. Its benefits make it a useful potential therapy for pain, mood disorders, skin conditions, and to promote general wellbeing. 

Including lavender essential in our PM Tincture: Rest + Recovery 1000MG CBD gives this tincture an enhanced restorative effect. Lavender essential oil promotes a deep sense of relaxation, while also addressing pain or inflammation while you sleep.

What is Chamomile Extract

Chamomile extract is distilled from the flowers of the chamomile plant, a relative of daisies. There are two different types of chamomile: Roman chamomile (Chamaemelum nobile) and German chamomile (Chamomilla recutita). While the two varieties look similar, their chemical compositions vary slightly. Researchers find that German chamomile contains more of the active ingredient chamazulene, which gives this chamomile oil or extract a blue hue.

Benefits of Chamomile Extract 

 Just like chamomile tea, chamomile extract is used for its calming and gentle sedative effects.

• Promotes restful sleep. 
  Chamomile’s biggest claim to fame is as a natural sleep aid. Home remedies for insomnia and troubled sleep often contain either dried chamomile tea, chamomile essential oil, or chamomile extract. Studies support this claim, showing that those who take chamomile extract experience better sleep quality than those who do not.
• Calms anxiety and depression. 
  Essential oils like lavender and chamomile are known to help relieve tension. Now, research shows that it has a significant impact on chronic stress and generalized anxiety disorder, as well. Along with feeling more relaxed, chamomile oil can help reduce your levels of the stress hormone cortisol. Other studies show that chamomile also helps regulate emotions and reduce feelings of depression.
• Supports the digestive system. 
  Chamomile relaxes the digestive tract as well as the mind. Studies show that chamomile extract can be used to reduce smooth muscle spasms in the gastrointestinal tract to relieve discomfort in conditions like IBS. This effect may also help the nervous system stay in the relaxed “rest and digest” (or parasympathetic) mode. 

What is Chamomile Extract Used For?

Chamomile is most commonly used to alleviate the symptoms of anxiety, insomnia, and stomach upset. 

Unstoppable’s PM Tincture: Rest + Recovery 1000MG CBD is designed to help you get a good night’s sleep while your body restores itself. We include chamomile extract to ease any leftover tension from the day and lull the mind and body into a peaceful sleep.

What is Sandalwood Essential Oil?

Sandalwood essential oil is a beloved essential oil used around the world. Sandalwood essential oil comes from the sandalwood tree, Santalum album. It is revered as one of the most precious trees in the world and has been used in alternative medicine and religious ceremonies for centuries. 

Benefits of Sandalwood Essential Oil

While you can often find sandalwood flavoring many soaps, candles, and incense, it also has an impressive range of health benefits. 

• Has anti-inflammatory properties. 
  Sandalwood has been used in traditional medical systems for centuries to treat conditions like the common cold, digestive upset, liver and gallbladder issues, urinary tract infections, skin infections, and more. Research shows that this could be because sandalwood has powerful anti-inflammatory effects. Compounds in sandalwood (santalols) act like NSAID medications by blocking inflammatory markers like cytokines.
• Relieves anxiety. 
  Sandalwood has a calming effect on the mind and may help to relieve stress and anxiety. In one study, women who inhaled sandalwood before a biopsy procedure reported feeling less anxious than before they were given the aromatherapy. Another study looked at more objective measures of anxiety – blood pressure and cortisol levels. In this trial, researchers found that people who inhaled sandalwood essential oil had lower blood pressure and reduced cortisol levels compared to those who were not exposed to sandalwood.
• Promotes mental clarity. 
  There’s a reason many religious ceremonies use sandalwood incense or oil – it is thought to clear the mind for meditation, prayer, and other rituals. Research confirms this idea, showing that the main chemical compound in sandalwood (alpha-santalol) does increase focus and improves mood. 

What is Sandalwood Essential Oil Used For?

Sandalwood’s earthy fragrance is one of the most popular scents used for healing in aromatherapy and traditional medical systems (like Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine). Sandalwood also has a deep spiritual significance in several religions around the world.

In medicine, sandalwood is mostly used to treat infections, respiratory conditions, inflammation, stress, high blood pressure, and anxiety.

Sandalwood oil gives Unstoppable’s PM Tincture: Rest + Recovery 1000MG CBD a calming and grounding effect. 

What is Roman Chamomile Flower Oil?

Roman chamomile oil was one of the first essential oils used in aromatherapy, dating back at least 2000 years.

What is German Chamomile Flower Oil

German chamomile oil is derived from chamomile flowers. It is also known as Blue Chamomile, due to its deep blue colorwhich comes from a higher concentration of the active ingredient chamazulene.
