Terpinolene

Table II.37: Terpinolene (ii.111151-152)
WHAT IS IT?

Terpinolene is a monoterpene-type compound primarily found in the essential oils of turmeric leaf. Turmeric's rhizome has some in it as well.

Other plants that contain terpinolene include fennel, lavender, lime, longleaf pine, marigold, mint, parsley, tarragon, tea tree, and valerian. Terpinolene-containing herbs and foods could help improve the appearance of cellulite and thinning hair, reduce stress, and get rid of acne.

POTENTIAL HEALTH BENEFITS
Anti-fungal
  • Believed to help kill antifungal organisms.
  • As a major component of turmeric leaf oil, terpinolene helps inhibit production of aflatoxin, a cancer-causing substance generated by Aspergillus flavus fungus. This could help prevent liver cancer.
  • Terpinolene is a potent larvicidal substance, and is toxic to several mosquito species.
Also referred to as a monoterpenoid. (ii.7)
