The entourage effect is a proposed mechanism by which cannabis compounds other than tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) act synergistically with it to modulate the overall psychoactive effects of the plant.

Origin of Entourage Effect

The entourage effect is a term popularized by Dr. Ethan Russo. The theories in his 2011 paper, Taming THC: potential cannabis synergy and phytocannabinoid-terpenoid entourage effects, radically changed the way the cannabis industry viewed terpenes and minor cannabinoids.
