Terpenes — What Does the Research Actually Say?
Terpenes give cannabis its aroma, but there's growing evidence they also influence effects beyond just smell. Linalool (lavender-like) and beta-caryophyllene (spicy) have the most clinical backing so far. Most claims are still ahead of the data.
What's your experience with terpene-forward products?
- Do you shop by terpene profile?
- Have you noticed the same terpene affecting you consistently?
- Which terpene claims do you find most believable vs. overblown?
