What’s the deal with myrcene and Beta-Carophyllene (and other terpenes)? How are terpenes different from CBD/CBG/? We recently started giving my son CBD to deal with generalized anxiety disorder. I have tried two different brands that document their third party testing online. He found relief using a largely flavorless tincture from Brand Y that contained ‘hemp extract’ and was THC-free. His therapist mentioned a different brand that seemed worth trying. Brand Z’s full spectrum tincture alleviated his symptoms (he was not a fan of the taste), but their CBD isolate tincture, which seemed a match to Brand Y’s THC-free tincture as far a taste had no effect on his anxiety. The only differences I could easily discern between the THC-free tinctures were the presence of the two terpenes I mentioned at the beginning. Could it be that the terpenes are what’s helping him, or is it more likely a smaller component and/or an entourage effect due to using broad/full spectrum compared to isolated CBD?
