What Are Terpenoids?
Nature's Medicine "Terpenoids"
Terpenoids come from terpenes. Living plants contain terpenes. When they die they convert their terpenes to terpenoids that become gifts.
Each strain of cannabis will carry its own assortment of terpenoids that have identifiable traits of color, smell, and individual experiences.
In the past people looked for the THC levels to make a cannabis strain selection. We are here to educate patients so they have more rounded experiences and understand some of the remarkable gifts of the plant known as cannabis or marijuana.
At truBLISS it is not about the high.
It is about the experience.
