TERPENES
What are Terpenes?
Terpenes are a large and diverse class of aromatic organic compounds. Each cannabis strain has a unique composition of terpenes that give the flower its unique fragrance and flavor. Terpene production in plants is an adaptation to repel herbivores and attract pollinators. Scientists have shown that terpenes interact synergistically with cannabinoids in what is known as the “entourage effect” enhancing the medicinal benefit.

Synergies with natural terpenoidsCannabinol activity has shown to be potentiated by the concurrent administration of natural terpenoids. For example, its antibacterial activity seems to synergize with Pinene, a terpenoid found in pine resin while its sedative properties are potentiated by the terpenoids Nerolidol and Myrcene. Nerolidol is a common terpenoid found not only in Cannabis but also in many other different plants like lemon balm, ginger, tea tree, lavender or jasmine flowers. Myrcene on the other hand, is a natural component of cannabis, bay, cardamom, parsley, hops and some types of thyme. Moreover CBN’s anticancer activity seems to be enhanced by the co-administration of limonene, a terpenoid found in Lemons.33
