Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2

Copaiba oil has been traditionally used in South American folk medicine, particularly in Brazil, for its purported anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, including the support of joint health and the relief of joint discomfort. The oil is derived from the resin of Copaifera species trees. Historical records show its use for a variety of inflammatory conditions, which would include those affecting the joints, such as arthritis and rheumatism. The traditional use is largely attributed to the presence of beta-caryophyllene and other sesquiterpenes, compounds known for their anti-inflammatory effects in vitro and in animal studies.

However, robust scientific validation for copaiba oil specifically supporting human joint health is limited. While some laboratory and animal studies suggest anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effects, clinical trials in humans are scarce. Therefore, although there is a longstanding tradition supporting its use for joint discomfort, the evidence from modern human research is insufficient to strongly validate these claims. In summary, the use of copaiba oil for joint support is justified primarily by traditional practices, with a low to moderate evidence rating based on the current scientific literature.
