Terpenes are natural compounds that create the interesting smell you notice from plants, including cannabis. Cannabis contains an abundant amount of terpenes. These terpenes are what give marijuana its unique smell. Just about every plant or fruit you encounter has terpenes. Terpenes protect plants from animals and germs but release a scent that will repel other animals. When you have particular symptoms like inflammation and nausea that you want to use cannabis to treat, the terpenes that cannabis contains matter.
How Terpenes Work in Cannabis
It is critical to know that there are more than 100 terpenes found in the cannabis plant. Each one is its own strain. These strains have many health and medical benefits from terpenes. The terpenes determine the smell and flavor of each strain of cannabis. Each strain of cannabis has a different taste. The terpenes help the body absorb chemicals. They work in combination with cannabinoids to improve absorption in the body.
