Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) in Carroll County, Iowa: The Complete Guide by OilWell Cannabis
If you’re reading this from Carroll County — whether you’re tending crops outside Carroll, working a shift at one of the local manufacturing plants, or caring for family in Manning — you’ve probably heard whispers about Rick Simpson Oil. Maybe a neighbor mentioned it at the co-op. Maybe a fellow veteran at the Carroll County Veterans Affairs office brought it up. Maybe you’re sitting in a waiting room at St. Anthony Regional Hospital, searching for options after hearing words like “incurable” or “chronic pain.”
We get it. Out here in western Iowa, where the nearest major cancer center is a two-hour drive to Des Moines and the closest VA hospital is even farther, people don’t have the luxury of waiting for solutions to come to them. They have to find their own answers — often after conventional medicine has run out of options. That’s exactly why we created this guide specifically for Carroll County residents, and why we’re making our complete RSO formulas available to you, no matter which corner of the county you call home.
Rick Simpson wasn’t a doctor. He was a power plant engineer in Nova Scotia who got hurt on the job, was failed by the medical system, and started making concentrated cannabis oil in his backyard. What he created — crude, unstandardized, but powerful — sparked a global movement. But here’s what nobody tells you: traditional RSO was never designed for safety, precision, or modern life. It was made with naphtha (lighter fluid), fully decarboxylated (always psychoactive), and never tested in a lab. Simpson gave it away for free to cancer patients because he believed medicine shouldn’t be gatekept. We respect the hell out of that mission. But we also believe people in Carroll County deserve something better: a product that honors Simpson’s vision while solving the problems his method created.
That’s why we built OilWell RSO differently. We publish our exact formulas (every cannabinoid, every milligram). We ship nationwide and internationally, directly to your door in Carroll County. We preserve THCa in its raw, non-psychoactive form so you can choose whether to stay functional for farm work or activate full potency for nighttime relief. And we test every batch for pesticides, heavy metals, and residual solvents — because nobody in Carroll County should have to guess what’s in their medicine.
Our story didn’t start in a boardroom or a lab. It started with a dog named Bentley, a man named Colin, and the kind of desperation that drives people in rural Iowa to try anything when the system fails them. We’ll get to that story in a minute. But first, let’s talk about what RSO actually is, what the science says, and why Carroll County residents are searching for it right now.
What Carroll County Needs to Know About Rick Simpson Oil
Who Was Rick Simpson (And Why His Story Matters to Carroll County)
Rick Simpson was born in 1949 in Nova Scotia, Canada. He wasn’t a doctor or scientist — he was a maintenance worker, a tradesman like many folks in Carroll County who work with their hands and know what it means to get hurt on the job. In 1997, while working at a hospital in Moncton, Simpson fell from scaffolding and suffered a serious head injury. The aftermath included persistent tinnitus, dizziness, and post-concussion symptoms that conventional medicine couldn’t fix. The medications made things worse. When he asked his doctor about cannabis, the doctor refused to even discuss it .
Sound familiar? If you’ve ever been to a pain clinic in Carroll County and been handed a prescription for opioids without a real conversation about alternatives, you know exactly how Simpson felt. If you’ve watched a family member cycle through medications that didn’t work while the medical system moved on, you understand the frustration. Simpson’s story resonates across the miles and decades because it mirrors what rural Iowans face every day: a healthcare system that sometimes fails people with chronic pain, cancer, or PTSD, leaving them to find their own solutions.
Simpson’s interest deepened in 2003 when he claimed three bumps on his arm were diagnosed as basal cell carcinoma. Rather than pursue conventional treatment, he applied concentrated cannabis oil directly to the lesions and claimed they disappeared in four days. No independent medical verification exists, no biopsy confirmation was published — but that personal experience became the origin story of RSO .
Important context: We present Simpson’s account as his personal testimony, not medical evidence. It cannot be evaluated as clinical proof, but it is historically significant as the catalyst for a global movement. For Carroll County residents facing desperate situations, that story carries weight — and it should. But you also deserve to know what the science actually says, which we’ll cover later.
The 60-Gram Protocol: What Simpson Recommended
Simpson’s treatment plan was simple in concept but extreme in execution: consume 60 grams of oil over 90 days. He believed this was the minimum necessary for serious conditions like cancer. The dosing schedule escalated quickly:
- Week 1: Half a grain of rice-sized dose (10-15mg) three times daily
- Weeks 2-5: Double every four days until reaching 1 gram per day
- Weeks 5-12: Maintain 1 gram daily in three divided doses
At peak dosing, patients consumed roughly 600-900mg of delta-9 THC daily — far exceeding anything studied in controlled clinical settings. The FDA-approved synthetic THC drug dronabinol is typically dosed at 2.5 to 20mg per day .
Important context for evaluating this protocol:
- No controlled trials have validated the 60-gram/90-day regimen
- Traditional RSO used crude, unstandardized material with unknown potency
- The THC exposure carries real risks: severe intoxication, anxiety, tachycardia, cannabis use disorder
- Patients with active cancer are medically complex; using unregulated oil as primary treatment can cause harm beyond the oil itself
Carroll County residents need to understand these risks clearly. We know you’re tough — Iowa farmers and factory workers are among the toughest people in America. But tough doesn’t mean invulnerable, and 600mg of THC daily can floor anyone. That’s why our modern approach is radically different.
Traditional RSO Was Never Lab-Tested
Here’s what traditional RSO actually was:
- Source material: Single-strain indica cannabis, no standardization
- Extraction solvent: Naphtha (lighter fluid) or 99% isopropyl alcohol — neither food-grade
- Process: Dissolved in a bucket, filtered through cheesecloth, evaporated in a rice cooker
- Appearance: Nearly black, tar-like, with possible solvent-residual smell
- Cannabinoids: 60-90% THC, fully decarboxylated, minor cannabinoids at random ratios
- Terpenes: Essentially zero (destroyed by heat and solvent)
- Testing: None. No COA, no contaminant screening
The residual solvent risk is serious. Naphtha may contain benzene and toluene — known carcinogens. Without lab testing (which didn’t exist in Simpson’s day), there was no way to verify purity. Modern extraction uses food-grade ethanol or CO₂ specifically to solve this problem.
This matters for Carroll County because we know many folks here are DIY-minded. If someone’s uncle is making “RSO” in his barn near Breda, using solvents from the hardware store, that’s not medicine — that’s a safety hazard. Our open-source formula gives you a safer alternative.
How OilWell Cannabis Began: From McAllen to Montrose to Carroll County
OilWell Cannabis was founded by Colin Valencia in Houston, Texas. Colin grew up in McAllen, Texas — right across the river from Reynosa, Mexico, in one of the most economically challenged and dangerous border regions in North America. He learned early what it means to hustle in tough conditions, to lose friends to violence, and to work outside conventional systems. By sixteen, he had to leave home for good. The violence he witnessed, the friends killed or imprisoned — these experiences shaped a man who understands suffering and refuses to accept that people should be left without options .
Despite those dangers, Colin didn’t fall into darker paths. He focused on cannabis, seeing it as safer and more beneficial than harder substances. He learned the plant intimately in the pre-legalization world, then transitioned to legitimate business as laws changed. Later, he became a formally trained software engineer and did custom development work for Baylor College of Medicine — one of the most prestigious medical institutions in the Texas Medical Center. That combination of deep cannabis knowledge and medical-grade technical precision defines everything OilWell makes .
Bentley’s Story: The Real Reason We Exist
The company’s origin story begins with a dog named Bentley. Bentley was more than a pet — he was family. When Bentley fell seriously ill, veterinarians delivered the verdict no owner wants to hear: euthanasia was the only humane option. Bentley was paralyzed in his back legs. They said pain medications would destroy his internal organs, causing more suffering. The choice was painful prolonged decline or immediate mercy killing.
Sound extreme? If you’ve ever sat in a vet’s office in Carroll County, maybe in Carroll or Manning, and heard those same words about a beloved hunting dog or family companion, you know that gut-punch feeling.
Colin refused to give up. A rescue worker named Jessica asked a question that changed everything: “You’ve moved how many tons of weed and you’ve never heard of CBD?” Colin had cannabis experience, but it was recreational. He’d never explored therapeutic applications. Jessica’s question exposed a blind spot that became a mission.
Colin created CBD golden paste — a specialized formula for pets. Determined to save Bentley, he mixed cannabinoids with turmeric, coconut oil, and black pepper. It wasn’t a cure, but it was hope. That hope delivered something veterinary medicine said was impossible: Bentley got up. He walked over to Colin and brought him his ball. From paralyzed and facing euthanasia to fetching his ball. This was not placebo effect — dogs don’t respond to placebo. This was cannabinoid medicine doing what pharmaceuticals could not .
Bentley lived another ten years, passing naturally at age twenty. During those years, Colin developed specialized formulas for every age-related condition Bentley faced:
- Neurodegeneration → CBG’s neuroprotective properties and THCa’s PPARγ agonism for brain cell protection
- Dementia → CBC’s role in neurogenesis
- Glaucoma → THC’s CB1 agonism for intraocular pressure
- Crippling arthritis → Multi-pathway anti-inflammatory using CBD, CBG, THCa, and beta-caryophyllene
Single cannabinoids weren’t enough. Bentley’s evolving conditions required multi-cannabinoid synergy. Pharmaceutical precision mattered — Bentley’s life depended on formula accuracy, not guesswork .
Practical takeaway for Carroll County: If you’re caring for an aging parent with dementia in Glidden, or a veteran with PTSD in Lake City, or a spouse with rheumatoid arthritis in Carroll, you understand that one-size-fits-all medicine fails complex patients. Bentley’s story is why our RSO contains seven cannabinoids — because real conditions require real complexity.
Colin’s Battle: From Xanax Addiction to Freedom
Colin also knows pharmaceutical dependence personally. He struggled with PTSD and benzodiazepine addiction after his experiences. When he decided to break free from Xanax, he did it cold turkey — notoriously difficult and dangerous — using the cannabinoid knowledge he developed keeping Bentley alive.
The Peace Gummies formula that became an OilWell product was created during midnight experiments while fighting through benzo withdrawal. To ensure quick relief, we also offer the Peace Gummies formula in a vape form, which Colin personally uses to manage his insomnia and severe PTSD. This is not theoretical knowledge. Colin lived what RSO patients live: desperation for relief, failed pharmaceuticals, the discovery that cannabinoids work when pills do not .
For Carroll County veterans who’ve been through the VA system and found themselves on a carousel of medications that don’t work, Colin’s story isn’t just relatable — it’s proof that someone from a tough background, who faced the same institutional failures, built something better.
ABC13 Houston: Seven Features, Four Years, One Voice
Between September 2019 and April 2023, ABC13 Houston featured Colin and OilWell Cannabis in seven comprehensive news segments. Five different reporters sought us out across business, law, medicine, community health, and politics. No other Houston cannabis operator matches that frequency or breadth .
When ABC13 needed to explain Delta-8 legality to Texas, they called Colin. When President Biden announced marijuana pardons and they needed someone who’d personally lived with a cannabis conviction to put it in context, they called Colin. When they wanted to tell the story of a growing cannabis industry on 4/20, it was Colin’s hemp field and voice that anchored the report.
This matters for Carroll County because mainstream media validation from a major-market ABC affiliate establishes credibility that transcends geography. When you’re in Carroll County, Iowa, evaluating whether to trust a company from Houston, Texas, knowing that ABC13 — America’s fourth-largest city’s number-one news source — repeatedly selected Colin as their cannabis expert tells you something about integrity and expertise.
The through-line from these features:
- Consistency across four years of changing laws
- Breadth of expertise from product chemistry to criminal justice reform
- Community action ($35,000 in free product for COVID vaccination)
- Personal stakes (Colin’s own cannabis conviction history)
- Evolution from “local wholesaler” to industry authority
These features cannot be purchased — they can only be earned .
The OilWell RSO Philosophy: Four Principles That Matter to Carroll County
OilWell’s RSO is not traditional Rick Simpson Oil. It’s informed by the tradition but deliberately different in ways that solve real problems for people in places like Carroll County:
1. Accessibility Over Gatekeeping
No medical card required. Iowa’s medical cannabis program is one of the most restrictive in the nation — only about 10,000 Texans actively use it despite 30 million residents, and Iowa’s program is even more limited. You need a qualifying condition, a doctor’s recommendation, and you’re locked into a single state-licensed dispensary system.
We don’t require any of that. If you’re 21 or older in Carroll County, you can order our RSO directly. We ship to Carroll, Manning, Glidden, Lake City, and every rural route in between. We deliver same-day in Houston, but for Carroll County residents, we ship via USPS Priority Mail (2-3 business days) with tracking and discreet packaging. No medical bureaucracy. No waiting lists. No gatekeeping.
2. Patient-Controlled Potency
You decide whether to get high. Traditional RSO was always fully psychoactive — Simpson evaporated it in a rice cooker, converting all THCa to THC. That meant patients had no choice: you were impaired, whether you needed to drive to the co-op, operate machinery, or just function during the day.
Our sublingual formula contains 1,500mg of THCa in its raw, non-psychoactive form. You have three options:
-
Raw (no heat): All 1,500mg stays as THCa. Zero impairment. You can work your fields, drive into Carroll for supplies, or attend your kid’s baseball game in Lake City without psychoactive effects. The THCa evidence suggests anti-inflammatory activity via COX-2 inhibition — relevant for arthritis, chronic pain, and inflammation from agricultural work [12].
-
Fully activated (home decarboxylation): Heat the oil at 260°F for 45-60 minutes. This converts 1,500mg THCa into approximately 1,315mg delta-9 THC. Combined with the existing 90mg delta-9 THC and 6,000mg delta-8 THC, you achieve psychoactive potency comparable to traditional illegal RSO — 100% legally, because you control the activation.
-
Vape (instant activation): Our vape cartridge vaporizes at 400-450°F, converting THCa to delta-9 THC with each puff. This is the fastest relief option — onset in 1-2 minutes for breakthrough pain, panic attacks, or acute nausea.
This is the most significant legal cannabis access innovation in history. You purchase a Farm Bill-compliant product in Carroll County, Iowa, and you decide whether to activate it. The legal distinction is clear: THCa is not delta-9 THC at point of sale. The chemistry is real, not a loophole.
3. Open-Source Formulas
If you can’t afford it, make it yourself. Simpson gave his oil away for free and taught people how to make it. We adapted that ethos for the modern cannabinoid marketplace: we sell a professionally manufactured, lab-tested product for those who want it, and we publish the complete recipe for those who want to make their own.
We know $129.99 for the sublingual oil or $49.99 for the vape cartridge may be steep for some Carroll County families, especially those facing medical bills or on fixed incomes. That’s why we list every cannabinoid amount, every percentage, every ingredient. If you have access to cannabinoid distillates and can mix them safely, you can replicate our formula. We don’t hide behind proprietary blends. We give you the knowledge Simpson championed, updated for modern safety standards.
4. Evidence-Informed, Not Evidence-Overstating
Simpson operated without access to peer-reviewed literature. We have that access, and we use it to distinguish between what’s well-supported, what’s emerging, and what’s overstated.
The GENERAL KNOWLEDGE section of this document (which we’ll get to) evaluates every cannabinoid and terpene using a formal evidence hierarchy. We’re not here to sell snake oil. We’re here to give Carroll County residents the best possible version of the information so you can decide if it’s right or wrong for you.
Farm Bill Compliance: Why Our RSO Is Legal in Carroll County
The 2018 Farm Bill legalized hemp-derived products containing less than 0.3% delta-9 THC by dry weight. Our sublingual oil contains only 90mg of delta-9 THC in the entire 30mL bottle — 3mg per mL — well under the federal threshold. All cannabinoids are hemp-derived. This makes our product legal under federal law and in Iowa.
Important legal notice for Carroll County residents: THCa converts to delta-9 THC when heated. You are responsible for understanding and complying with Iowa state law regarding cannabinoid products. We ship with full documentation, Certificates of Analysis (COAs), and receipts. International customers accept all customs and legal risk.
Iowa’s medical cannabis program remains extremely restrictive. Our product offers an alternative path: no medical card, no qualifying conditions, no state registry. Just age verification and responsible use.
Solvent-Free Production: What Carroll County Needs to Know About Safety
Traditional RSO used naphtha or isopropyl alcohol — neither food-grade. Naphtha contains benzene and toluene, known carcinogens. Without lab testing (which didn’t exist in Simpson’s era), there was no way to verify solvent removal.
Our production uses no solvents. We blend individual cannabinoid distillates and isolates at specific ratios in a controlled environment. The carrier is organic MCT oil — food-grade, neutral taste, no tar-like consistency or solvent smell.
Third-party lab testing covers:
- Cannabinoid potency (HPLC/UHPLC analysis, ±2% accuracy)
- Terpene profile
- Pesticides (400+ compound screening)
- Heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury — below FDA limits)
- Residual solvents (FDA Class 3 limits <5,000 ppm)
- Microbial contaminants (E. coli, Salmonella, Aspergillus)
COAs are available on request and through our website. For Carroll County residents, this transparency means you know exactly what you’re putting in your body — no guessing, no hoping, no praying the barn-made oil is clean.
The Science: What Works, What’s Hype, and What Carroll County Should Know
We evaluate every compound using a formal evidence hierarchy: human clinical evidence first, then systematic reviews, then institutional summaries, then preclinical literature. Here’s what that means for you:
CBD: The Most Evidence-Developed Compound
CBD has the strongest human evidence in our formula:
- Seizure disorders: FDA-approved Epidiolex for rare epilepsies [1][2]
- Anxiety: 2024 systematic review showed significant anxiolytic signal in 316 participants across 8 studies [3]
- Pain: 2024 review found promising but heterogeneous results; trial quality still limiting [4]
- Sleep: 2023 review found literature methodologically weak [5]
- Safety: 2023 review identified liver enzyme elevation risk, especially with high doses or polypharmacy [6]
Bottom line for Carroll County: CBD is credible for specific conditions, but broad “wellness” claims outrun the data. If you’re using it for chronic pain or anxiety, start low and monitor liver function if you’re on other medications.
CBG: Emerging But Not Proven
Mostly review and preclinical evidence. Shows pharmacological interest for neurologic disorders, inflammatory bowel disease, and antibacterial activity, but human trials are sparse [7][8]. It’s commercially interesting because it’s underexplored, not because it’s proven.
Delta-8 THC: Real Pharmacology, Real Risks
Delta-8 is psychoactive, less potent than delta-9, but pharmacologically similar [9]. A 2023 scoping review found the evidence base dominated by animal studies and public-health concerns rather than strong human trials [10]. Manufacturing quality concerns are significant [11].
Bottom line for Carroll County: Delta-8 is not “diet weed.” It’s a real cannabinoid with real effects and incomplete safety data. Use cautiously.
THCa: The Legal Game-Changer
THCa is the acidic precursor to THC. It’s non-psychoactive unless heated [12]. Animal studies suggest anti-inflammatory (COX-2 inhibition) and neuroprotective potential, but human evidence is limited. The key for Carroll County: you can legally purchase THCa-rich products and control activation yourself.
Delta-9 THC: Strongest Evidence, Strongest Risks
Institutionally best supported for chemotherapy nausea, HIV/AIDS appetite, and some MS/pain outcomes [1]. A 2022 systematic review found high-THC products may help chronic pain short-term but increase dizziness, sedation, and discontinuation [13]. A 2025 review linked high-concentration THC products to increased psychosis/schizophrenia and cannabis use disorder risk [15].
Bottom line for Carroll County: THC has legitimate uses but carries clear intoxication, psychiatric, and dose-related safety risks. Don’t underestimate it.
CBN: Overhyped for Sleep
Marketed heavily for sleep, but the evidence is weak. A 2021 review screened 99 human-study abstracts and found no clinical trials using validated sleep measures [16]. A 2024 sleep review concluded cannabinoid sleep research doesn’t match real-world use scale [17].
Bottom line for Carroll County: CBN’s reputation exceeds its evidence. We’re transparent about this — our formula includes 750mg (25mg per mL at recommended dose), but we don’t oversell the sleep claims.
CBC: Emerging, Intriguing, Preclinical
2024 review found CBC has distinct pharmacodynamics and potential for antinociceptive, antibacterial, and anti-seizure research, but human evidence is still emerging [18][19]. Over-the-counter products are being sold despite thin evidence [18].
Terpenes: Interesting But Unproven
The entourage effect is plausible but not clinically proven in humans [20][29]. Each terpene has preclinical activity:
- Limonene: antioxidant, anti-inflammatory (mostly non-cannabis literature) [21]
- Myrcene: anxiolytic in animals, no human proof [23]
- Caryophyllene: selective CB2 agonist, most interesting mechanistically [24]
- Pinene: neuroprotective preclinical, limited human data [25]
- Linalool: antidepressant mechanisms in animals [26]
- Humulene: anti-inflammatory, cannabimimetic in rodents [27]
- Terpinolene: least characterized, mostly in vitro/animal [28]
Bottom line for Carroll County: Terpenes contribute to aroma and may have bioactivity, but therapeutic claims should be cautious.

Condition-Specific Usage Context for Carroll County
Critical disclaimer: This is educational information, not medical advice. These products are not FDA-approved to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Consult your healthcare provider before use. Do not operate vehicles or machinery while impaired.
Chronic Pain (Agricultural Injuries, Factory Work, Arthritis)
Carroll County’s economy runs on agriculture and manufacturing. Back injuries from lifting, repetitive strain from equipment, arthritis from decades of physical labor — these are realities here.
- Daytime: 0.3-0.5mL raw sublingual (166-276mg total cannabinoids). This provides anti-inflammatory effects via CBD, CBG, THCa (COX-2 inhibition), and caryophyllene (CB2 activation) without psychoactive impairment. You can work safely.
- Nighttime: 0.5-1.0mL decarboxylated sublingual. Combines THC’s pain relief with CBN’s sleep support.
- Breakthrough: Vape as needed for rapid relief.
Cancer Support (During Chemo, For Appetite)
For Carroll County residents traveling to oncology centers in Des Moines or Omaha:
- Pre-chemo: 0.5-1.0mL sublingual 1 hour before treatment (276-553mg total cannabinoids). Delta-8 THC has antiemetic evidence; delta-9 THC addresses nausea and stimulates appetite [1][9][13].
- Breakthrough nausea: 2-3 vape puffs for immediate relief (1-2 minute onset).
- Post-chemo: 0.5mL sublingual every 6 hours as needed.
- Sleep: 1.0-2.0mL sublingual before bed delivers 25-50mg CBN, though sleep evidence for CBN remains weak [16][17].
Critical context: RSO is not a cancer cure. The preclinical literature shows cannabinoids can induce apoptosis and inhibit tumor growth in cell lines and animals, but no human clinical trial has proven RSO cures cancer . Do not delay proven treatments. Use RSO as complementary support, not replacement.
Sleep Disorders (Insomnia, PTSD-Related Sleep Disturbance)
Sleep issues plague rural America, especially veterans and those with chronic pain.
- Before bed: 1.0-2.0mL sublingual delivers 25-50mg CBN. While CBN sleep evidence is limited, the total cannabinoid profile (CBD, CBG, THC) may support sleep architecture.
Anxiety & PTSD (Especially Veterans)
Iowa has a high per-capita veteran population. Many in Carroll County served and returned with invisible wounds.
- Daytime: 0.3mL raw sublingual (166mg total cannabinoids). CBD and CBG address anxiety pathways without impairment [3][7][8]. Colin personally uses this approach for PTSD management.
- Nighttime: 1.0mL sublingual full formula for sleep.

The Science-Based Evidence: What Carroll County Should Know
We hold ourselves to the same standards we apply to Simpson’s claims. Here’s the honest evaluation:
What Simpson Got Right
He drew attention to cannabinoids as serious biomedical research when the world ignored them. He created conditions for the legal cannabis industry. The term “RSO” remains the most recognized name for full-spectrum cannabis extract. Those contributions are real .
What He Overstated
“Cannabis oil cures cancer” exceeds the evidence. Encouraging patients to use RSO instead of proven oncologic therapies carries genuine harm potential. Delayed or foregone treatment for treatable cancers is documented in alternative medicine literature .
For Carroll County cancer patients: Please coordinate with your oncology team at MercyOne in Carroll or your Des Moines specialists. RSO can complement treatment, not replace it.
Institutional Positions
- NCI: Acknowledges preclinical anticancer research but doesn’t endorse cannabis as cancer treatment
- FDA: Has not approved cannabis plant for cancer; only purified CBD (Epidiolex) and synthetic THC analogues (dronabinol/nabilone) for specific indications [1]
- Health Canada: Never approved RSO for cancer
- NCCIH: Strongest evidence is for rare epilepsies, chemo nausea, and HIV/AIDS appetite — not cancer cure [1]

Our products are made in Houston, not Carroll County. But our ethos — self-reliance, community support, and scientific integrity — aligns with Iowa values. We ship to your door. We publish our formulas. We test every batch. And we tell you the truth about what works and what doesn’t.
If you’re in Carroll County facing chronic pain, cancer treatment side effects, PTSD, or any condition that conventional medicine hasn’t solved, you have options. You can order our RSO today and have it within days. You can read our complete formula and make your own. You can call us at (832) 416-2816 and talk to real people who’ve lived what you’re living.
Final thought for Carroll County: Rick Simpson started with a man desperate to help his community. We started with a man desperate to save his dog. Both stories are about love, not profit. Both are about refusing to accept that people should suffer when alternatives exist. That’s why we’re here for Carroll County. That’s why we publish everything. And that’s why Bentley lived to twenty.
