Researchers are increasingly focused on how flavonoids contribute to the entourage effect, where multiple plant compounds work synergistically to enhance medicinal benefits for conditions ranging from anxiety to chronic pain. This deeper understanding of flavonoids could revolutionize strain selection and cannabis medicine customization for patients seeking targeted symptom relief.
