Terpenes are remarkable compounds that plants use to attract pollinators, repel pests, repair cell damage, and manage other crucial functions. They are powerful plant healers. In addition to performing specific actions, each terpene has a distinct aroma and taste. Like cannabinoids, terpenes activate receptors in the human endocannabinoid system (ECS), a network of neurotransmitters that stretches from head to toe. The ECS system is important because it balances the immune system, regulates brain signaling, maintains body temperature, heart rate, and breathing rate, and plays a role in digestion, mood, and memory.

If you diffuse a rose or lavender essential oil, terpene molecules in the air create a floral aroma. Essential oils have a mix of terpenes with other concentrated plant compounds. As is the case with powerful medicine, the correct dose is beneficial, but an overdose can be harmful. This general rule is particularly true with essential oils. People tend to think, “it’s just plants,” without realizing the remarkable impact of plant molecules on the body. While terpenes are safe to eat, and some are FDA-approved as food additives, a few can be toxic in high quantities. CBD is carefully crafted with a healthy level of targeted terpenes. Most essential oils are best used by diffusers and should not be consumed . Some can cause a rash on the skin or be poisonous if swallowed, so users should carefully investigate each oil before use. Some are so potent they need to be diluted to be safe to use. Popular essential oils that must be diluted include: Bay Cinnamon bark or leaf Clove bud Citronella Cumin Lemongrass Lemon verbena Oregano Thyme Not Just Plants, Plant Molecules Next time you catch the scent of fresh orange, pine, or garden flowers, take a deep breath. Those are terpenes, and they are good for you. Cannabis and the industrial hemp plant have a remarkably high concentration and variety of terpenes. Full-spectrum CBD harnesses the power of these plant molecules, individually and together, in an entourage.
