This type of concentration is a full plant extract that includes terpenes, flavonoids, and all other minor compounds in the plant, optimizing the possible entourage effects of the chosen strain.There is no mixing of terpenes from different strains in Cresco Labs RSO product lines because they are strain specific. As a route of intake, smoking cannabis is not the best option. This is mostly due to the presence of carcinogenic compounds (chemicals known to cause cancer) in smoke, which naturally present in all kinds of smoke as combustion byproducts. Ingestion, rather than smoking, would allow a patient to avoid the possibly harmful or irritating effects of smoke. RSO could also be used as a topical therapy. Rick Simpson proudly says in his documentary “Run From The Cure” that he believes he treated his skin cancer by utilizing his RSO to topically treat himself (To be clear, his claims have yet to be confirmed by mainstream scientific research). Patients can easily remove their dose from the RSO container and take the prescribed amount of cannabis concentrate.
