Full spectrum cannabis products contain a wide range of cannabinoids, terpenes, and other beneficial compounds naturally found in the cannabis plant. It is in contrast to products made from isolated cannabinoids or synthetic compounds.
The cannabis plant contains more than 100 different cannabinoids, the most well-known being delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). However, there are numerous other cannabinoids present in varying amounts, such as cannabigerol (CBG), cannabinol (CBN), and cannabichromene (CBC), among others. Each cannabinoid interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system in different ways, potentially offering various therapeutic effects.
In addition to cannabinoids, cannabis also contains aromatic compounds called terpenes, which give the plant its distinctive smells and flavors. Terpenes not only contribute to the overall sensory experience but may also have therapeutic properties of their own. Examples of common cannabis terpenes include myrcene, limonene, and linalool.
Our extraction methods preserve the plant’s natural cannabinoid and terpene profile. This means that the products contain a diverse range of cannabinoids, including THC and CBD, as well as other less abundant cannabinoids and terpenes.
Full Spectrum cannabis various compounds work synergistically to produce an “entourage effect.” The entourage effect suggests that the combination of cannabinoids and terpenes, rather than isolated compounds alone, may provide enhanced therapeutic benefits. The interaction between different cannabinoids and terpenes modulate the effects of THC, reducing its psychoactive properties while enhancing its potential medicinal value.
