Choosing Cannabis-Derived Terpenes Based on Their Effects
A 2024 study from Johns Hopkins confirms the importance of cannabis-derived terpenes – and their instrumental role in the effects of various cannabis products.
Researchers discovered that the terpene limonene effectively mitigates anxiety when taken with vaporized THC. Of the participants studied, half took 30 milligrams of THC, and the other half took the same dose mixed with limonene. Most in the first group began to feel anxious and paranoid (since, as you may know, 30 milligrams is a pretty sky-high dose and not recommended for beginner cannabis users).
On the other hand, participants who vaped THC and limonene reported substantially lower rates of anxiety and paranoia. They also tended to experience more relaxation.[4]
Clearly, terpenes show great promise, and we hope that more research will tell us more about this marvelous type of compound in the coming years.
In the meantime, we understand that cannabis-derived terpenes provide wide-ranging aromas and effects. So, which type of terpene will you look for next? It depends on your intentions.
Limonene to Reduce Stress & Boost Your Mood
As the recent study shows, the cannabis-derived terpene limonene has potentially positive effects on mood. It’s known to reduce stress while providing a natural lift in energy, wonderful for propelling you through the day’s activities.
Like the study’s participants, you may be able to consume higher doses of THC when they’re paired with limonene, thanks to its soothing effects.
Its scent is equally invigorating. Found in many citrus fruits, you’ll recognize limonene in your favorite lemon or orange-smelling strains.
Myrcene for Soothing Benefits
Myrcene is the single most abundant cannabis-derived terpene, found in cannabis plants of all varieties. It creates the earthy, warm, herbal smell that we all associate with marijuana.
This cannabis-derived terpene is also largely responsible for how chilled out you might feel after smoking or ingesting different forms of cannabis. It provides full-bodied relaxation and head-to-toe soothing. You’ve probably already been enjoying its effects.
Linalool for Anti-Anxiety & Relaxation
Hoping to let your stress melt away and calm your mind? Look out for cannabis products that contain high quantities of linalool.
Folks in the cannabis community prize linalool for its ability to cause calm and reduce anxiety. It’s the perfect complement to potent cannabis products because it can help your experience remain grounded, sweet, and soothing.
Linalool is the main terpene in lavender plants; as a cannabis-derived terpene, it smells just like a garden of lavender.
Pinene for Alertness
Pinene carries the aroma of another natural landscape: pine forests. It has the charming scent of fir and pine.
With anti-inflammatory properties and the ability to promote alertness, pinene can provide a balanced, somewhat invigorating high. We would indulge in it about half an hour before taking a vigorous walk in nature – or if you’re looking to perk up in the morning before a full day of chores around the house.
This terpene is the fusion of alpha-pinene and beta-pinene, present in pine trees, basil, and rosemary, as well as many cannabis plants.
Caryophyllene to Eliminate Inflammation
Though this cannabis-derived terpene can be less familiar than others, you may recognize its signature black peppery scent. It has notes of clove and other warming spices.
Scientists have discovered that caryophyllene binds to CB2 receptors, making it the only cannabis-derived terpene that acts like a cannabinoid (at least until more research potentially uncovers others). It reduces inflammation, helping you have a restful and beneficial high.[5]
As soon as you realize how directly cannabis-derived terpenes influence the effects of various products, you’re already prepared to choose your next ones with more care. It’s worth looking past the simple indica, sativa, or hybrid label to uncover what you really need for the experience you’re seeking.
