Sticky tricky terpenes - a quick phytochemical overview
I've been producing medicinal plant lessons on the quick. This is the second in a series, and made especially quick based on materials I've used for teaching over many years and some new points recently clarified from continued learning. It's an overview, and it's not even a little bit about cannabis because terpenes are nearly ubiquitous in the plant kingdom, and we might like to know the other sources too! This turned out to be an approximately 45-minute overview stepping up in scale across the most recognized groups of terpenes, from small and aromatic to more complex in size and significance. This hits aromatics, medicinal actions, plant physiology (in a simplistic how and why sense), and endocrine-related actions plus the nutritional significance of one type of terpenes in common food plants.

1 年I just went and bought your $10 audio course on phytochemistry and after I paid it told me to download SoundCloud for my Android phone. It only gives access to an outdated app that no longer exists. How else can I access the recordings?
