Products with natural terpenes taste better and have more helpful properties
Terpenes are natural compounds found inside many different plants. These compounds help to create the floral scent of each plant. Terpenes have many different health benefits to humans. As people began to understand and study cannabis, they discovered that some natural terpenes can actually help in healing. Some terpenes are made to make a plant smell more attractive to bees. These plants have a natural aroma that is fragrant and inviting. Some terpenes in plants are created to protect the plant from infection and damage. Terpenes are bioactive, meaning they greatly affect the body. Cannabinoids are similar to terpenes, but different parts of the plant. Terpenes are used in a number of essential oils and aromatherapy. There are several different types of terpenes like limonene, pinene, myrcene, and linalool. One of my favorite natural terpenes is limonene. Limonene is one of the most easily recognized terpenes because of the citrus smell. Studies have shown that limonene can work as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory medication. Limonene interacts with immune cells in our body to help protect against a number of diseases and ailments. I always look for products with natural terpenes when I go to the dispensary. Products with natural terpenes taste better and have more helpful properties. Some of my favorite strains with limonene are OG kush, Blue dream, and Lemon Kush. Anytime I can find one of these three favorites, I make them part of my purchase at the cannabis dispensary. The product with natural terpenes can be a bit more expensive, but they are far more flavorful and offer a variety of health benefits.
