FAQ & Facts
About Fairwinds F.E.C.O.
What is FECO?
FECO stands for Full Extract Cannabis Oil. Our FECO is a special formula made from two types of cannabis extract. A cannabis oil extract, and a cannabis juice/water extract. Cannabinoids and terpenes are delivered by our DOH cannabis oil extracted in-house, standardized to different ratios of CBD and THC. This ultra-pure cannabis oil is then blended with our juice/water extract to provide different beneficial compounds: polysaccharides, flavonoids, alkaloids, and other water-soluble constituents. The water extract contains similar constituents to cannabis juice, known for its beneficial effects. The two types of extracts together complete the entourage effect of the whole cannabis plant, to deliver a more full spectrum oil than RSO or any other type of single phase extraction.
What is the entourage effect?
The entourage effect refers to the synergistic interaction between various compounds found in the cannabis plant, including cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids, and other phytochemicals. When these compounds are combined, they can work together to enhance the overall effects of the cannabis product, potentially providing a more balanced and comprehensive experience compared to isolated compounds.
In our FECO, the combination of oil and water extracts ensures that a wide range of these compounds are present, aiming to harness the full potential of the cannabis plant. By delivering both oil-soluble and water-soluble compounds FECO is designed to provide a more holistic and complete representation of the plant's natural profile.
What is the source of your cannabis oil?
FECO uses DOH approved CBD and THC oils, extracted in-house. The oil is free of pesticides, heavy metals, mycotoxins, and residual solvents. The CBD and THC oils are blended in multiple ratios and then mixed with our cannabis juice/water extract, to deliver a complete full spectrum product.
How does FECO compare to RSO?
FECO (Full Extract Cannabis Oil) offers a more comprehensive spectrum of cannabis compounds compared to other extracts like RSO (Rick Simpson Oil). RSO typically focuses on oil-soluble cannabinoids and terpenes, and attempts to include other constituents by using ethanol as an extraction solvent. This approach does create a more full spectrum product compared to hydrocarbon, CO2, and distillate, as it captures some components that are more water soluble, like tannins and chlorophyll, giving it a dark green, brown, or black color. FECO goes a step further by incorporating both oil and water-juice extracts from the cannabis plant, which captures many more water-soluble components than ethanol extract. Some of those components do not dissolve in ethanol and they have proven biological activity.
Our dual-extraction method allows FECO to capture not only the cannabinoids and terpenes found in traditional oil extracts like RSO but also water-soluble compounds such as polysaccharides, flavonoids, and alkaloids. These additional compounds contribute to a more complete entourage effect, potentially enhancing the overall benefits by delivering a wider range of the plant's natural components.
