Terpenes

Cannabis terpenes are aromatic oils secreted by the resin glands of the plant with aromatic molecules that help give plants a particular taste or smell. They’re the reason why lavender imparts its signature soothing aroma and why certain marijuana strains have a citrusy, floral, or even woody flavor and scent. These are the same glands that create cannabinoids, the active ingredients in cannabis

The power of terpenes goes beyond affecting just the nose and tongue, however. While it has always been assumed that cannabinoids were the power behind marijuana’s effects, terpenes play a large role, as well. Terpenes can bind with the same receptors as cannabinoids to create various effects. This makes understanding terpenes a particularly useful bit of cannabis information, as it means that consumers can better customize their high or cannabis health benefits by knowing what terpenes they’re ingesting.

Given that marijuana terpenes differ from one strain to the next, this (in combination with cannabinoids) is why one strain can be wildly stimulating while another may cause intense drowsiness and relaxation. Researchers believe that the combination of cannabinoids and terpenes may be responsible for the entourage effect. The phenomenon in which its ingredients work differently (and often better) when consumed together rather than individually

Marijuana terpenes not only differ from one strain to the next, but they may also differ between harvests of the same strain. Each terpene demonstrates individual characteristics that influence the effects of the plant in which it’s found. While there are dozens of terpenes in marijuana, much of the knowledge and research has focused on the most common ones.

Myrcene

The most common terpene found in cannabis, myrcene imparts an earthy essence. It’s the terpene responsible for marijuana’s sedative “couch-lock” effects. It’s also known for its anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.

Linalool

Linalool has a floral fragrance, with benefits that include anti-inflammatory, anti-anxiety, and analgesic properties. They are also studies investigating the use of linalool in neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease.

Terpinolene

Terpinolene relaxes with its gently sweet floral fragrance, but it also imparts herbal and woody notes. This terpene is an excellent sedative, as well as being antibacterial and having antioxidant properties.

Limonene

Famous for its citrusy flavor and scent, limonene is also found in fruit rinds, as well as in peppermint, juniper, and rosemary. It has anti-anxiety, anti-depressant, and anti-tumor properties, as well as being an anti-inflammatory and analgesic.

Pinene

As may be guessed by its name, pinene is most commonly found in pine needles and imparts a definitive pine aroma. Pinene can be used to lessen some of the effects of THC. It also has analgesic, anti-anxiety, anti-inflammatory, and anti-tumor effects, as well as being excellent at treating asthma.
