Testing Hemp Terpenes for Health – 411 on Hemp Terpenes

Mixing terpenes with cannabinoids allows the two different compounds to complement each other. Hemp terpenes and cannabinoids together interact with the endocannabinoid system receptors to relax, to invigorate, to ease pain and anxiety, and much more.

When combined with cannabinoids and other plants, terpenes act differently. While recognizing the high presence of terpenes in the intensity of the hemp plant’s odor, its concentration depends on the hemp strain and even how it is cultivated.

Hemp terpenes also provide an “entourage effect” which allows the terpenes to work together with cannabinoids even in the growing process to produce the maximum cannabinoid and flavonoid content.  Testing hemp terpenes for health shows how they are synthesized in the secretory cells inside glandular trichomes within the plant.  This means that they are naturally enhanced with light exposure.

Testing Hemp Terpenes for Health – Tic for Tac OR Terpene for Benefits

Our exploration today is to look at terpenes and how they also translate to health and wellness. Savors of a particular flower come primarily from the terpenes that fill the little crystal globes on the hemp flower. But terpenes are good for health and specifically accentuate the health benefit which the hemp buds already are known for. Health benefits also come from the profile of cannabinoids found in the flower.

Terpenes that are particularly effective for insomnia are as follows:

• Myrcene – the fruity, aging mangoes, bay leaves, and lemongrass terpene
• Linalool – The floral terpene
• Trans-nerolidol – The Little-Known terpene

Hemp Terpenes that are particularly effective for pain are as follows:

• Caryophyllene – The spicy terpene & the “honorary cannabinoid” (it interacts directly with the ECS CB2 receptors.)
• Bisabolol – The chamomile floral terpene.
• Humulene – The spicy hoppy terpene.

Terpenes that are particularly effective for fatigue & depression are:

• Pinene – The fresh pine, earthy terpene
• Limonene – The citrusy terpene

The terpenes that are particularly effective for anxiety are:

• Caryophyllene – The spicy terpene & the “honorary cannabinoid” (it interacts directly with the ECS CB2 receptors.) Temporarily dampens anxiety signaling.
• Limonene – The citrusy terpene
• Phytol – The green tea terpene

Testing Hemp Terpenes for Health –Flowers and Their Terpenes

Hemp flowers all have a great many compounds which are more effective when they all work together. You will have a more healthful experience when you smoke or vape or infuse edibles if you always use a full spectrum product and the hemp flower is naturally a full spectrum.

SLEEP look at these flowers:

• Legendary OG
• Bubba Kush
• Cherry Blossom
• CBG-Infused Special Sauce

PAIN look at these flowers:

• OG Kush
• Frosted Lime
• Crawford CBG

FATIGUE & DEPRESSION look at these flowers:

• Elektra
• Sour Space Candy
• Lemon Drop

ANXIETY look at these flowers:

• Abacus

Hemp terpenes for health may be a new concept for you but it has been scientifically proven through numerous studies. The savors of the terpene only accentuate the benefits of the flower’s health impact. Take linalool, for example. It is also found in lavender and we think of that as a calming and relaxing scent. If you smoke or vape the hemp flower to dose, then these savors make your experience not only better but more effective.

“Terpene Health” Last Words

When two different hemp plants have identical cannabinoid structures but different terpenes, the user will have two very different experiences. Terpenes have a significant impact on how hemp interacts with the Endocannabinoid System. The amount of terpenes in the hemp flower has to do with temperature, humidity, and light during the time of growth.
