Approximately 500 chemical compounds have been identified in it: some exclusive to the plant, cannabinoids; others with a lot of presence in the plant kingdom, such as terpenes and flavonoids. Used medicinally for millennia, it is not until the 90s when it begins to be elucidated how these components act in the human organism. Clinical trials and observational studies have shown its usefulness in reducing pain, anxiety, and stress or alleviating symptoms and promoting well-being in neurological conditions, cancer, among many other diseases and pathologies.

But marijuana isn't the only plant that contains terpenes. In fact, terpenes also produce fragrant oils for several other different flowers and medicinal plants, as well as fruits, vegetables, and numerous herbs and spices. These same oils are even used extensively in perfumery and alternative medicines like aromatherapy.
