RICK SIMPSON OIL
One of the products we offer is Rick Simpson Oil, or RSO. Rick Simpson was an engineer in a Canadian Hospital when he suffered a head injury which resulted in dizzy spells, and other symptoms which could not be alleviated with the medications his doctors prescribed.
After hearing about the benefits of using cannabis as a medical treatment, Rick started using cannabis, and noticed significant improvement in his symptoms.
Upon being diagnosed with skin cancer, and after doing more research, he decided to treat his skin cancer topically, by applying concentrated cannabils oil to his cancerous spots, and treating the spot for several days.
Upon removing the bandages he saw the cancerous growths had disappeared. Although his physician refused to acknowledge cannabis as a treatment alternative, Simpson was now a true believer in the medicinal powers of cannabis.
From then on out, he began growing his own cannabis and using the plants to create his own specialized form of cannabis concentrate, now known as Rick Simpson Oil, or RSO. It became his mission and goal to distribute cannabis oil to those who needed it. He helped treat thousands of patients with RSO, but his journey was not without its challenges.
Simpson’s doctor refused to acknowledge the benefits, and he faced legal issues in his native Canada. His home was raided, and he had over 2,600 plants cut down and confiscated by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, but Simpson persevered and continued to distribute cannabis oil.
If you feel RSO is something that may benefit you, here is a recommended dosage schedule. The goal is to consume 60 grams of RSO over a 90 day period:
Week 1: Start with three doses every day
- Each dose should be about the size of half a grain of rice and should be administered once every eight hours (in the morning, noon, and night). The first dose will be about ¼ of a drop of RSO.
Weeks 2 through 5: Double your dose every four days
- The average person will take between three and five weeks to reach the full dosage of one gram of RSO per day.
Weeks 5 through 12: Take one gram of RSO daily until you’ve consumed the full 60 grams.
- Eventually, the patient will be taking about 8-9 rice-sized drops of RSO every eight hours.
The taste of the RSO may be slightly bitter or unpleasant, so patients may prefer to ingest the oil by swallowing it directly or mixing it with other foods, such as bananas, to help mask the taste.
Note: Do not try to dab RSO, as it is made with high-proof solvent and could be adverse to one’s health.
Side effects mostly include sleepiness, which is a natural part of the healing process. Increasing the dose gradually will help minimize the psychoactive effects and keep your tolerance to a functional level. Daytime sleepiness should fade within three to four weeks.
After a 12-week regimen of RSO, the patient may want to continue the treatment but it should be at a significantly reduced rate. About one to two grams of RSO per month is enough for a regular maintenance dose.
Rick Simpson Oil should not be considered a cure-all for medical conditions, but many patients have experienced significant relief from their medical symptoms and conditions with the use of RSO.
