This guide will help you understand:
✅ What traditional RSO is (and what it isn’t)
✅ How OilWell’s RSO formulas improve on the original
✅ The science behind each cannabinoid and terpene in our products
✅ How to use RSO safely and effectively in Wilson County
✅ Where to get lab-tested, legal, high-quality RSO in Tennessee
1. What Is Traditional Rick Simpson Oil (RSO)?
Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) is a highly concentrated cannabis extract popularized by Canadian activist Rick Simpson in the early 2000s. Simpson claimed that his homemade oil helped shrink his skin cancer after conventional treatments failed. While his story inspired millions, it’s important to separate personal testimony from medical evidence.
How Was Traditional RSO Made?
Simpson’s original method involved:
- Using high-THC indica strains (no standardization)
- Extracting with naphtha or isopropyl alcohol (toxic solvents)
- Evaporating the solvent in a rice cooker (destroying terpenes)
- Ending up with a thick, tar-like oil (60-90% THC, no lab testing)
Simpson’s 60-Gram, 90-Day Protocol
Simpson recommended a strict dosing schedule for cancer patients:
- Week 1: Tiny doses (10-15mg THC, 3x/day)
- Weeks 2-5: Gradually increase to 1 gram/day (600-900mg THC)
- Weeks 5-12: Maintain 1 gram/day until 60 grams total were consumed
- After 90 days: Switch to maintenance dosing (1-2g/month)
The Problems with Traditional RSO
While Simpson’s advocacy helped destigmatize cannabis, his method had serious limitations:
❌ No lab testing → Risk of residual solvents, pesticides, or mold
❌ No cannabinoid standardization → Every batch was different
❌ Extremely high THC doses (600-900mg/day) → Impairment, anxiety, and safety risks
❌ No terpenes → Lost in the high-heat extraction process
❌ No medical oversight → Simpson was not a doctor or scientist
Bottom line: Traditional RSO was crude, untested, and risky—but it sparked a movement that led to modern, safer alternatives.
2. How OilWell’s RSO Formulas Improve on the Original
At OilWell Cannabis, we respect Rick Simpson’s legacy but evolve his vision with:
✔ Seven cannabinoids (not just THC)
✔ Live terpenes (5% profile for better effects)
✔ Solvent-free production (no toxic residues)
✔ Lab-tested potency & purity (COAs available)
✔ Patient-controlled potency (THCa lets you choose psychoactive or non-psychoactive use)
✔ Two delivery formats (sublingual oil + vape cartridge)
Traditional RSO vs. OilWell’s Modern Formulated RSO
| Factor | Traditional RSO | OilWell RSO |
|---|---|---|
| Source Material | Single high-THC strain (uncontrolled) | Multi-cannabinoid blend (7 compounds) |
| Extraction Method | Naphtha/isopropyl alcohol (toxic solvents) | Food-grade ethanol/CO₂ (solvent-free) |
| Cannabinoid Profile | THC-dominant (60-90%) | CBD, CBG, Delta-8, THCa, Delta-9, CBN, CBC |
| Terpenes | None (destroyed by heat) | 5% live terpenes (7-terpene profile) |
| Lab Testing | None | Full-panel testing (potency, pesticides, heavy metals, solvents, microbes) |

3. The Science Behind OilWell’s RSO Formulas
Our RSO formulas contain seven cannabinoids and seven terpenes, each with unique benefits supported by research.
Cannabinoids in OilWell RSO
| Cannabinoid | Amount (30mL bottle) | Key Benefits | Evidence Level |
|---|---|---|---|
| CBD | 4,500mg | Anxiety, pain, inflammation, seizures | Strong (human trials) [1][2][3] |
| CBG | 3,000mg | Neuroprotection, gut health, antibacterial | Emerging (preclinical) [7][8] |
| Delta-8 THC | 6,000mg | Nausea relief, mild euphoria, pain | Moderate (pharmacology studies) [9][10][11] |
| THCa | 1,500mg | Anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective (non-psychoactive) | Emerging (preclinical) [12] |
| Delta-9 THC | 90mg | Pain relief, appetite stimulation, sleep | Strong (human trials) [1][13][14] |
| CBN | 750mg | Sleep support, sedative effects | Limited (mostly preclinical) [16][17] |
| CBC | 750mg | Anti-inflammatory, neurogenesis | Emerging (preclinical) [18][19] |
Total cannabinoids per bottle: 16,590mg (553mg/mL)
Terpenes in OilWell RSO (5% Profile)
| Terpene | Flavor/Aroma | Potential Benefits | Evidence Level |
|---|---|---|---|
| Limonene | Citrus, bright | Mood enhancement, stress relief | Moderate (preclinical) [20][21] |
| Myrcene | Earthy, musky | Sedation, muscle relaxation | Limited (mostly preclinical) [23] |
| Caryophyllene | Peppery, spicy | Anti-inflammatory, pain relief (CB2 agonist) | Moderate (preclinical) [24] |
| Pinene | Pine, fresh | Alertness, memory support | Limited (mostly preclinical) [25] |
| Linalool | Floral, lavender | Calming, anxiety relief | Limited (mostly preclinical) [25][26] |

Why This Combination Works Better Than Traditional RSO
- Multi-cannabinoid synergy → The entourage effect (cannabinoids + terpenes working together) may enhance benefits [20][29].
- THCa preservation → Lets you choose between non-psychoactive (raw) or psychoactive (decarbed) use.
- Lower THC risk → Only 90mg delta-9 THC (vs. 600-900mg in traditional RSO), reducing impairment risks.
- Terpenes for better effects → Traditional RSO had no terpenes—OilWell’s 5% profile improves flavor and potential benefits.
