Welcome to the Magical World of Terpenes and Their Benefits

benefits of terpenes

Terpenes are aromatic compounds found in many plants and herbs, such as rosemary and lavender. Apart from giving these plants their unique scents, terpenes play a vital role in the plant’s life and offer some health benefits to humans. This article will explore the health benefits of terpenes.

Most terpenes are bioactive, meaning they can affect our bodies. However, the effect can vary depending on the concentration of the terpene and how it is used. Because they produce strong fragrances, terpenes form the basis of many essential oils. Inhaling the scents from some plants and essential oils can affect a person’s mood and stress levels. Many believe that terpenes can enhance or even alter the effects of using cannabis.

Jack Herer

Jack Herer was a passionate Cannabis/Hemp activist and author. The cannabis strain, Jack Herer, also known as Bedrocan, has won numerous Cannabis Cups. This strain is rich in terpenes, which contribute to its unique properties and potential health benefits.

The terpenes found in Jack Herer, like Terpinolene, Caryophyllene, and Ocimene, have shown promising health benefits. Terpinolene has antifungal and antibacterial properties. Caryophyllene can bind to CB2 receptors, just like CBD does, but it does not induce a “high” – instead, it offers anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties. Ocimene, on the other hand, exhibits potential antiviral activity and may also assist in treating symptoms of diabetes.
