The Entourage Effect - Everything You Need To Know

Celebrities always seem to be surrounded by an entourage - that group of people who individually bring something to the group and even more so collectively working as a team.

The entourage effect in cannabis is very similar to this scenario in that each of the compounds in the cannabis/hemp plant has special abilities alone but by working together with the other compounds produce even greater effects.

This article will explain what exactly the entourage effect is, why you need to know about it, and the types of products, whether it be our broad-spectrum CBD tincture or our CBD gummies, that will provide the full entourage effect.

What is the Entourage Effect?

The entourage effect is the scientific theory that the molecular compounds in cannabis work together by boosting each other's properties and in turn the potency of cannabis.

It was first suggested in 1998 by chemist Professor Raphael Mouchoulum and Shimon Ben-Shabat who posited that compounds in the human body had a synergistic effect on one another.

They showed how a variety of “inactive” metabolites and related molecules increased the activity of our primary endocannabinoids anandamide and 2AG.

In cannabis, this translates to the over 500 compounds present (namely cannabinoids and terpenes) that work together helping to boost each other's potency.

Cannabinoids and Terpenes working together?

Terpenes have long been used in natural folk medicine to treat various illnesses. We just know them better by the plant they are in such as lavender, tea, thyme, sage, citrus fruits, etc.

Not only do CBD tinctures provide the aromatic smells and taste of the cannabis plant but work together with its cannabinoids for greater effects.

It is believed that the very presence of certain terpenes has a direct effect on the potency and the specific effects of different cannabinoids.

Is Full Spectrum the best way to capitalize on the Entourage Effect?

Yes. Full-spectrum CBD would be the best way to utilize the full entourage effect as full-spectrum is cannabis oil in its most natural state containing all of its compounds.

It seems the more compounds the better.

Conclusion

The entourage effect is the theory that all the compounds in the cannabis plant work synergistically together boosting each other's potency.

The entourage effect was first witnessed in the human body by observing the greater potency of endogenous cannabinoids when other molecules were present. This then led to researchers looking at phytocannabinoids in cannabis which exert similar effects.

To experience the entourage effect in its entirety you should look for full-spectrum CBD oil which would contain all of its natural compounds. The next best thing would be a broad-spectrum oil which would contain everything bar THC.

Early research is promising but to be definitive we require more clinical double-blind human trials to fully determine the theory of the entourage effect.
