Entourage Effect
⬡Anti-inflammatory synergy with caryophyllene; may suppress appetite — unlike most cannabis compounds
The entourage effect refers to the synergistic interaction between cannabinoids, terpenes, and other phytochemicals in the cannabis plant. Whole-plant extracts and full-spectrum products preserve this synergy; isolated distillates do not.
Vaporization Temperature
Humulene vaporizes at 106°C (223°F). To preserve this terpene when vaping, keep your device below this temperature — most terpenes degrade and produce harsh byproducts when overheated.
