Getting a good night's sleep is essential for overall health and well-being, yet many adults struggle to unwind after a long day. As interest in cannabis continues to grow, many people ask whether RSO/FECO (Rick Simpson Oil / Full-Extract Cannabis Oil) may be a better option for nighttime use than other cannabis products.
Unlike THC distillates that primarily contain isolated cannabinoids, RSO/FECO is a full-spectrum cannabis extract that preserves a broader range of naturally occurring cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids, and other plant compounds. New to RSO? Start with our guide: What Is RSO?

Many consumers prefer full-spectrum cannabis products in the evening because of their complete cannabinoid and terpene profile. Research into cannabis and sleep is ongoing, and individual experiences vary. RSO/FECO should not be viewed as a guaranteed treatment for sleep problems.
