These terpenes have been shown to act as neurological agents, and are capable of being used in the treatment of a wide variety of neurological conditions. Terpenes can be used to treat neurological disorders such as Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and other conditions as shown:

The following are 4 primary differences between terpenes and flavonoids. This information is derived from Edition 2 of The Big Book of Terps.
Terpenes could be the next weapon in the fight against Aspergillus infections in cannabis. This is especially important information considering that cultivation operations are often plagued by infections of Aspergillus, and now there is the threat of potentially over-reaching regulation looming to curb the problem. Fortunately, the answer to the Aspergillus conundrum might lie within […]
This one terpene meme has it all: Anticancer Terpenes, Allelopathic Terpenes, Insecticidal Terpenes, Insects that Produce or Use Terpenes, Neurological Terpenes, Boiling Points, Flash Points, and a Terpene Classes Chart. These images are developed from The Big Book of Terps and #TerpTalk.
There are 7 primary ways to manipulate the terpene content of cannabis. These methods involve manipulation of terpene content prior to drying and curing, whereafter only preservation is possible. These brief descriptions are based on a supplemental chapter in The Big Book of Terps titled “Manipulating Cannabis for Phytochemical Content,” which begins at page 556.
Allelopathic terpenes are those produced by a plant that affect the germination, growth, propagation, and survival of cohabitant plants. In effect, these are the terpenes of plant chemical warfare. Terpenes and terpenoids have been shown to act as allelopathic agents in many different plants, and in some cases these isoprenoid compounds can affect plants of […]
This image shows insects that biologically produce terpenes, and/or those that use terpenes from other sources. Some insects use terpenes as a method of communication, some use them defensively, while other insects have developed highly specialized ways of making use of terpenes and terpenoids.
