The entourage effect describes the synergistic interaction of cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids in cannabis, enhancing their respective effects. It emphasizes full-spectrum cannabis over isolated compounds like THC and CBD. Alongside THC and CBD, cannabis features over 100 cannabinoids that provide varied therapeutic benefits. Cannabinoids interact differently with the endocannabinoid system, affecting mood and balance. Terpenes, which give strains unique aromas, also play a crucial role in modulating cannabinoid effects. Together, these factors contribute to a richer and more functional cannabis experience.
The entourage effect refers to the synergistic interaction between various cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids in the cannabis plant, creating a more layered and effective experience.
Cannabis contains over 100 cannabinoids, with THC and CBD being the most notable. Minor cannabinoids like CBG, CBN, and THCV offer unique effects and therapeutic benefits.
THC primarily binds to CB1 receptors, causing a euphoric effect, while CBD helps modulate non-cannabinoid receptors to promote balance in the body's response to stress.
Terpenes are aromatic compounds that not only define a strain's smell but also modulate the effects of cannabinoids, enhancing the overall experience.
