Because navigating the world of cannabis shouldn’t feel like studying for a chemistry exam.
Welcome to the world of cannabis extracts — where every acronym sounds like a new government agency, and every bottle promises a different kind of enlightenment.
FECO? CBD? THC? CBN? WTF?
Take a deep breath, darling. NEKED has your back (and your endocannabinoid system). Whether you're a first-time user or a plant-powered pro, this is your no-BS, high-vibe guide to the world of cannabis oils — written in plain English with just the right amount of cheek.
Let’s Start With the Basics: What Even Is Cannabis Oil?
Cannabis oils are potent, concentrated extracts made from the flower of the cannabis plant. Depending on the process (and the intent), oils can contain:
CBD (non-intoxicating, healing, calming)
THC (psychoactive, euphoric, pain-killing)
FECO (supercharged, full-spectrum extract used for serious healing)
Or a combo of the above — plus bonus cannabinoids like CBN, CBG, and a gorgeous cocktail of terpenes.
In short? It’s liquid plant power. And choosing the right one can make a world of difference to your body, mind, mood, and maybe even your dog. (Yes, we’ll get there.)
CBD: Calm Without the Chaos
Think of CBD as the cool older sibling who doesn’t cause drama but gets stuff done.
CBD (Cannabidiol) won’t get you high — but it will:✓ Take the edge off anxiety✓ Help you sleep better✓ Ease inflammation and chronic pain✓ Improve mood and focus✓ Reduce seizures (in medical cases)✓ Help your aunt stop yelling at the cat
Best for: beginners, busy professionals, anxious insomniacs, pets, and people who want the benefits of cannabis without the buzz.
THC: The Party Starter With Purpose
THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) is the famous one. The reason cannabis became infamous. It’s the psychoactive compound that gets you high — but also:
✓ Helps with chronic and neuropathic pain✓ Stimulates appetite✓ Supports creative thinking✓ Relieves nausea (especially during chemo)✓ Pairs perfectly with bubble baths and Bob Marley
Best for: experienced users, pain management, creative souls, and anyone who wants to feel elevated (without drinking a bottle of wine).
Pro tip: Start low. Go slow. And always buy from a source that knows what they’re doing. (Hi. That’s us.)
FECO: Full Extract Cannabis Oil (aka the Heavy Hitter)
FECO isn’t for the faint of heart — or the casual dabbler. It’s a full-spectrum, super-concentrated oil extracted using ethanol. That means you get all the plant’s powerful compounds — cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids — in one dark, sticky, punchy little drop.
People use FECO for:✓ Cancer recovery✓ Chronic pain and autoimmune issues✓ MS, Parkinson’s, and epilepsy✓ Severe insomnia✓ Long-term inflammation✓ Deep therapeutic healing
It’s not recreational. It’s revolutionary.
Best for: serious medical needs, trauma recovery, or anyone working closely with a cannabis consultant or natural health professional.
So… Which One’s for Me?
Here’s the NEKED rule of thumb:
Your Need | Your Match |
Everyday stress, sleep, mood | CBD |
Aches, creative boost, weekend wind-down | THC |
Chronic conditions, serious healing | FECO |
Your dog with separation anxiety | Pet friendly CBD (Yes, really.) |
Still not sure? Ask us. We love questions, consultations, and converting cannabis confusion into clarity.
What Makes NEKED Oils Different?
At NEKED Cannabis Café, we only stock the oils we’d give our own families (and pets). That means:
Lab-tested, clean, safe extraction methods
No additives, no nasties, no "mid"
Full-spectrum and broad-spectrum options
Education-first service with Cheeba-trained staff
Support for first-time users and long-term medical clients
And unlike most places, we don’t just hand you a bottle and send you on your way. We explain how to use it, when to use it, what to expect, and how to track your results.
What About Functional Mushrooms?
We’re glad you asked. While not cannabis, we also offer functional mushroom blends (like lion’s mane, reishi, and cordyceps) to support mood, cognition, energy, and immunity.
Because wellness isn’t one plant. It’s a whole damn garden.
