RSO Oil: Benefits, Uses, Dosage & Where to Buy in 2025

 What is RSO Oil? RSO oil, also known as Rick Simpson Oil, is a potent cannabis extract made famous by Canadian medical marijuana activist Rick Simpson. Unlike other cannabis concentrates that are often consumed for recreational purposes, RSO was specifically created with the intent of delivering strong therapeutic benefits. The oil is a full-extract cannabis oil (FECO) , meaning it contains the full spectrum of cannabinoids, terpenes, and plant compounds extracted from the cannabis plant. Its dark, thick consistency and high THC concentration distinguish it from CBD oils or lighter cannabis tinctures. The History of RSO Oil Rick Simpson developed RSO in the early 2000s after being diagnosed with skin cancer. He claimed that applying the oil topically on cancerous spots led to healing.

Legalization wipes nearly half a million non-felony cannabis-related arrest records clean

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker announced Thursday the forgiveness and expungement of about 500,000 criminal cannabis cases. Pritzker said he issued pardons for 9,210 low-level cannabis convictions, while Illinois State Police have wiped clean more than 492,000 non-felony cannabis-related arrest records.   The actions by Pritzker and state police is mandated by the Illinois law that legalized the licensed sale of marijuana starting in 2020. The intent of the law is to reduce the impact of the war on drugs on minorities, who were disproportionately arrested and locked up for cannabis crimes. “We will never be able to fully remedy the depth of that damage,” Pritzker said. “But we can govern with the courage to admit the mistakes of our past and the decency to set a better path forward.” The law requires 47,000 cannabis-related arrest records created between 2013 and 2019 be expunged by Friday. With the expungement of all 492,129 cannabis arrest records, state police official...

America's First Ban on Marijuana

The Criminalization of Marijuana in America Where did America go wrong with our policies regarding the use of marijuana? What driving forces are responsible for the stigmatization surrounding and policies forbidding the use of an herb that grows naturally from the earth's soil and can be utilized in so many ways that are beneficial to our health, our economy and, in turn, our society and the very world we reside in?
