TERPENES:
Harnessing the Power of Plants to Enrich the Human Experience
While nearly all plants produce terpenes, the ones you're probably most familiar with are found in citrus, aromatic herbs, and other kinds of plants. The particular combination of terpenes are what give a plant its signature aroma, color, and flavor. (Close your eyes and think of the fresh, warm scent of grapefruit zest, or the sharp pine hit of rosemary.) But they do more than that. In nature, terpenes protect plants from disease and predators, shield them against the elements, and may even play a role in plant-to-plant communication. For humans and animals, the positive effects of a terpene-filled experience in nature can be both sensory and physiological. From flavor to function, when we consciously and properly harness terpenes, we can use them to greatly improve our enjoyment and quality of life. Follow us on a quick journey to learn more about terpenes, their benefits and applications, our standards, and how to integrate wholesale terpenoids into a fuller, more rewarding user experience.
What Are Terpenes?
Terpenes are hydrocarbons produced by plants, animals, and even fungus. Somewhere around 20,000 known terpenes are on the planet. Biologically, they function as pheromones, hormones, vitamins, and immune defense. In plants, these aromatic molecules are found in essential oils, and they combine to create each plant species' unmistakable scent and flavor experience. But that's not all they do. Terpenes can also have a therapeutic effect on humans and animals when inhaled, ingested, or applied topically.
What Are Terpenes Used For?
As terpene isolates or in blends, a few examples of how to use terpenes include enhancing and flavoring food and beverages, and adding aroma and effects to natural medicines, cosmetics, and household products. Botanical and hemp-derived terpenes are also used to add flavor and effects to distillate, topicals, and edibles, and to enhance the flavor and effects of concentrate and flower.
Benefits of Terpenes
Chances are, you've already experienced the therapeutic benefits of terpenes in nature. Think of the sense of uplifting calm you feel while walking through a pine forest. It's due in part to the fact that terpenes comprise the majority of the forest atmosphere. What you may not realize is that the benefits of inhaling the molecules go beyond relaxation.
Studies have shown these same forest terpenes to have long-ranging anti-inflammatory effects. Our team of researchers and scientists are at the forefront of discovery and innovation when it comes to safely and effectively harnessing this natural health and wellness powerhouse. In fact, our Scientific Advisory Board was founded in part by Dr. Ethan Russo, whose work has advanced our understanding of the entourage effect of terpenes as it relates to cannabinoids.
The Entourage Effect
Terpenes are known for contributing to a phenomenon of amplified therapeutic benefit called "the entourage effect." Simply put, when terpenes are combined with another phytochemical (or advantageous plant chemical), the benefit of each element is enhanced. This can be consciously used to optimize the benefit of individual terpenes or of other medicinal herbs, plants and flowers.
