Terpenes

Terpenes are aromatic oils produced in the same glands as cannabinoids like THC and CBD, and they are crucial in distinguishing the effects of different cannabis strains.

Terpenes are natural aromatic compounds that give plants their unique scents—like linalool, which gives lavender its calming aroma, or limonene, which adds a citrusy note to oranges. Some terpenes not only help protect the plant but also offer protective benefits to humans when ingested.

The most commonly encountered terpenes in cannabis include Limonene, Humulene, Pinene, Linalool, Caryophyllene, and Myrcene. Refer to this resource to identify which terpenes might help you achieve the effects you are looking for.

Cannabinoids and terpenes each have their own distinct therapeutic properties, and when they are consumed together, they can amplify each other’s effects.

This synergy is what is known as the “Entourage Effect,” making the combination more effective than when the compounds are used in isolation.
