What are cannabis terpenes?

Here’s a brief overview of some of the terpenes you may find in our plants as well as some of the associated effects:

Beta-caryophyllene. A major ingredient in cloves, rosemary, and hops, beta-caryophyllene could be beneficial for managing symptoms of anxiety and depression.

Beta-pinene. If you’ve strolled through a coniferous forest, you know the smell of beta-pinene, which could also have potentially both anti-depressant and anti-cancer properties.

Humulene. This terpene is found in ginseng, which has long been used in folk medicine for energizing effects.

Limonene. One of the most commonly found terpenes, limonene has distinct citrus notes and may potentially have anti-cancer properties. In mice, it’s been shown to have anti-anxiety properties.

Linalool. Lovers of lavender as aromatherapy may want to seek out cannabis with linalool, which may help alleviate stress.

Myrcene. Found in mangoes, myrcene has antifungal and antibacterial properties and could also have sedating effects.
