Camphene terpene
An earthy warrior with a camphor punch. Camphene shows remarkable potential for cardiovascular health by helping lower cholesterol and triglycerides.
Evidence confidence
Camphene chemistry data is stronger than effect prediction. Aroma, formula, and boiling-point references are compound-level signals; effect claims remain dose-, cultivar-, and person-dependent.
Scientific transparency
Terpene effects are research-informed and experience-reported associations, not guaranteed medical claims. Concentrations and outcomes vary by genetics, grow environment, harvest timing, curing, storage, device temperature, route, dose, tolerance, and lab method.
Evidence ladder
Formula, compound identity, boiling-point references, and botanical occurrence.
Aroma families, common cannabis appearances, and likely terpene synergies.
Mood, symptom, and mechanism language; dose and cannabinoid ratio can change outcomes.
Vape it right for Camphene
Camphene boils at 318°F (159°C). Set your device just above that to actually extract it — anything hotter and this terpene starts to break down.
Full terpene expression, light head high, best aroma fidelity.
Terpene + THC together — the sweet spot most sessions actually want.
Cannabinoids maxed, Camphene mostly cooked off — pick this only for body effect.
Device dial vs. actual bowl temperature can differ by 15–30°F. Start low and step up.
Reported effects and mechanism
Reduces plasma cholesterol and triglycerides by modulating lipid metabolism. Strong antioxidant that protects cells from oxidative damage. Treat these as association signals, not guaranteed therapeutic outcomes.
Common sources
Camphene is also found in Camphor, Cypress, Valerian, Nutmeg. These botanical overlaps help explain why cannabis aroma can resemble herbs, fruits, flowers, spices, or woods.
Research notes
Studies show significant reductions in cholesterol and triglycerides, suggesting potential as cardiovascular therapeutic.

How DeePuff treats terpene claims
Strains listing Camphene
View allSources and evidence
Compound identity, formula, volatility, and botanical occurrence are stronger claims than predicted human effects.
Terpene effect language should be treated as research-informed association, not guaranteed clinical outcome.
Boiling points are compound references; real vapor delivery depends on device, airflow, matrix, and degradation.
Whole-plant effects may involve cannabinoids, terpenes, dose, tolerance, route, and setting.
Concentrated terpenes and high-heat degradation products require caution; DeePuff avoids guaranteed medical claims.
Medical claims require caution; user-reported relief is not a substitute for clinician guidance.
