The powerful (but not miraculous) Rick Simpson Oil (RSO)
What Is RSO / FECO? A Powerful Cannabis Extract—With Important Caveats
Rick Simpson Oil (RSO), also known as Full Extract Cannabis Oil (FECO), is a highly concentrated cannabis extract made using the whole plant. Unlike many refined products that isolate specific compounds, RSO/FECO is valued for preserving the plant’s full spectrum of cannabinoids, terpenes, waxes, and other naturally occurring components. The result is a thick, dark oil with a strong aroma and an equally strong reputation.
Many people are drawn to RSO because of its potency and versatility. It’s often used in very small amounts and can be consumed in different ways depending on personal preference. Over the years, RSO has developed a devoted following, particularly among individuals looking for robust, full-spectrum cannabis experiences.
Why People Are Interested in RSO
Consumers commonly report using RSO as part of their personal wellness routines, including during challenging times such as managing discomfort, poor appetite, sleep disruption, or general fatigue. You will also hear it discussed in conversations around supporting quality of life during difficult treatments like chemotherapy or radiation.
That said, it’s important to be clear and responsible.
