Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) in Sac County: The Complete Guide by OilWell Cannabis
Why Sac County Residents Are Turning to RSO
In Sac County, where agriculture and small-town values shape daily life, more residents are discovering the potential benefits of Rick Simpson Oil (RSO). Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain from years of farm work, seeking natural alternatives for better sleep, or exploring options for managing stress and anxiety, RSO has become a topic of conversation in local health circles.
At OilWell Cannabis, we understand that Sac County residents value honesty, quality, and practical solutions. That’s why we’ve created this comprehensive guide – to help our neighbors make informed decisions about RSO, understand how it differs from traditional CBD products, and learn about safe, legal access to high-quality formulations.
Understanding RSO: From Rick Simpson to Modern Formulations
The Rick Simpson Story: A Pioneer’s Journey
Rick Simpson’s story began in 1949 in Nova Scotia, Canada. As a power engineer and maintenance worker, he never expected to become a cannabis advocate. His journey started with personal suffering – a workplace injury that left him with persistent tinnitus and post-concussion symptoms that conventional medicine couldn’t resolve.
Simpson discovered that cannabis provided more relief than the medications he was prescribed. When he asked his doctor about cannabis, the request was refused. This experience planted the seed for his later advocacy work. After learning about a 1974 NIH-funded study showing THC’s potential effects on tumors in mice, Simpson’s interest in concentrated cannabis oil grew.
The pivotal moment came in 2003 when Simpson reported that three bumps on his arm diagnosed as basal cell carcinoma disappeared after he applied concentrated cannabis oil. While this account lacks independent medical verification, it became the foundation for what we now know as Rick Simpson Oil (RSO).
How Traditional RSO Differed from Modern Products
Traditional RSO was made using a simple but potentially dangerous process:
- High-THC indica strains were used as source material
- Naphtha or isopropyl alcohol served as extraction solvents
- The process involved multiple steps of agitation, filtration, and evaporation
- The final product was a thick, nearly black oil with high THC content
- No standardization or lab testing was performed
While Simpson’s intentions were noble – he gave away his oil for free to cancer patients and others in need – the traditional process had significant limitations:
- Inconsistent potency from batch to batch
- Potential residual solvent contamination
- Lack of minor cannabinoids and terpenes
- No quality control or safety testing
OilWell Cannabis: Bringing Modern Science to RSO
Our Founder’s Story: From Border Towns to Cannabis Innovation
Colin Valencia, founder of OilWell Cannabis, grew up in McAllen, Texas – just across the river from Reynosa, Mexico. His childhood was marked by the challenges of border life, where he witnessed both the opportunities and dangers of the region. By sixteen, he had left home and found his way into the cannabis world, seeing it as a safer alternative to harder substances.
Colin’s journey took a significant turn when he became a software engineer and worked with Baylor College of Medicine. This combination of cannabis expertise and medical-grade technical precision would later define OilWell’s approach.
Bentley’s Miracle: The Origin of Our Mission
The company’s origin story begins with a dog named Bentley, who became paralyzed and was facing euthanasia. When conventional veterinary medicine offered no solutions, Colin turned to cannabis. He created a CBD golden paste that helped Bentley walk again – a moment that changed everything.
Bentley lived another ten years, and during that time, Colin developed specialized cannabis formulas for every condition Bentley faced:
- Neurodegeneration led to understanding CBG’s neuroprotective properties
- Dementia research focused on CBC’s role in neurogenesis
- Glaucoma studies explored THC’s effects on intraocular pressure
- Arthritis led to multi-pathway anti-inflammatory approaches
This experience taught Colin that single cannabinoids weren’t enough – complex conditions required multi-cannabinoid formulations.
From Personal Struggle to Professional Expertise
Colin’s personal health journey further shaped OilWell’s mission. He struggled with PTSD and benzodiazepine addiction, using his cannabinoid knowledge to quit Xanax cold turkey. The Peace Gummies formula that helped him through this experience is now one of our most popular products.
This personal experience with pharmaceutical dependence drives our commitment to providing alternatives that work when conventional medications fail.

Frequently Asked Questions from Sac County Residents
Q: Is RSO legal in Sac County?
A: Yes, our RSO products are legal under federal law and in Iowa. They contain less than 0.3% delta-9 THC and are made from hemp. Customers are responsible for understanding and complying with all local laws.
Q: Will RSO make me high?
A: It depends on how you use it. The raw product contains THCa, which is non-psychoactive. If you decarboxylate (heat) the product, THCa converts to THC, which can produce psychoactive effects. The vape cartridge automatically activates THCa when used.
Q: How is OilWell RSO different from CBD oil?
A: Our RSO contains seven cannabinoids (CBD, CBG, delta-8 THC, THCa, delta-9 THC, CBN, CBC) plus terpenes, while most CBD oils contain only CBD. This multi-cannabinoid approach may provide broader potential benefits.
Q: Can I use RSO for my specific condition?
A: While we can provide general information about how our products are used, we cannot make specific medical claims or recommendations. We always advise consulting with a healthcare provider about your individual health needs.
Q: How long does it take to feel the effects?
A: Sublingual oil typically takes 15-45 minutes to take effect and lasts 4-6 hours. The vape cartridge works within 1-2 minutes and lasts 2-4 hours.
Q: How should I store my RSO?
A: Store in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. The sublingual oil can be refrigerated for extended shelf life, but it’s not required.
Q: What if I have a drug test coming up?
A: While our raw product contains only trace amounts of delta-9 THC, decarboxylation converts THCa to THC, which may trigger a positive drug test. Delta-8 THC may also trigger positive results. If you’re subject to drug testing, we recommend caution and consulting with your employer or testing facility.
