Here at Highkind Cannabis Co® we are extremely proud to have pioneered the first range of terpene infused CBD crystals. Terpene infused CBD crystals are very high quality, CBD concentrates enhanced and flavoured by fully cannabis terpene profiles. Terpenes are the molecules that give all strains of cannabis, as well as fruits like Lemons, oranges and mangoes their amazing loud aroma and flavour. Beyond there extremely pleasant taste, terpenes are beginning to show they are quite effective medicinally alone, and that there has been too much attention placed on CBD and THC over the years. Most have been overlooking these little aromatic molecules. I mean who even knows what a “terpene” is ??? Not many actually, but…that’s starting to change.
When Cannabidiol (CBD) or Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is filtered/distilled and purified up to 99% pure, in this state, it is totally void of any terpenes. The average hemp enthusiast, upon seeing a cannabinoid extract of this potency is going to think WOW! , “PURE 99% CBD” that must be AMAZING !!! The reality once tested is quite different. Purified 99% CBD/THC is very boring. Tasteless! Odourless! Completely lacking the medicinal terpenes that are ever so important in the highly desired “entourage” effect we all seek when medicating with our favourite plant extracts. Some studies even suggest a 50% CBD extract with terpenes is more effective than 99% CBD alone.
CBD Crystals UK – F.A.Q
Q.What is the “Entourage” effect?
A. The Entourage effect was a phrase first coined by the legendary cannabinoid researcher Raphael Mechoulam and his team of cannabis scientists. It was used to describe the synergistic relationship cannabinoids, terpenoids and flavonoids had with one another. Terpenes have shown to block some cannabinoid receptor sites while promoting cannabinoid binding to others. As a result, terpenes are believed to directly affect how CBD is absorbed and utilised in our endocannabinoid systems CB1 and CB2 receptors, enhancing bioavailability and also the biological half-life. So it’s simple, CBD without terpenes is not so effective. This is when the idea for our CBD terp crystal was born.
Q. What exactly is in your Terpene infused CBD crystals?
A. Our Terpene infused CBD crystals are a premium blend of a high purity CBD concentrate and terpene profiles designed to mimic the effects and flavour of the strain they are based on. That is it. Cannabidiol (CBD) + terpenes, and the effects are quite amazing. These products also contain zero THC and are 100% non-psychoactive.
