Briefly

The article emphasizes the significance of terpenes in cannabis, highlighting their role beyond THC and CBD as crucial compounds that contribute to flavors, aromas, and the overall experience. Terpenes like linalool, associated with calming lavender scents, and limonene, providing refreshing citrus notes, interact with cannabinoids to create the "entourage effect." This phenomenon enhances the effects of cannabis, where terpenes modulate THC and CBD effects, leading to different therapeutic benefits such as reducing anxiety or promoting energy and focus. Understanding terpenes can enrich the consumer's cannabis experience.
Linalool, derived from lavender, offers calming properties, reducing anxiety and enhancing sleep. It balances THC's effects, providing a smoother high.
Limonene, abundant in citrus fruits, provides uplifting effects, promoting a sense of energy and focus, contrasting nicely with the calming nature of linalool.
