Pesticides are supposed to protect your food from bugs. But they’re not supposed to poison you in the process. That’s why Med-X created a pesticide using only essential oils from clove, cottonseed, cedar, and cinnamon.

And you now have an opportunity to invest as they plan their way to the Nasdaq.

Not only are their products chemical-free, in some cases they’ve proven more effective than traditional pesticides. So effective, in fact, they’ve already landed e-commerce partnerships with companies like:

  • Walmart

  • Amazon

  • Kroger

  • And more

As a result, they’ve seen 200% sales growth in the last five years. 

Following rapid success in the US, Med-X is now on the path to scaling into 41 new global markets including Australia, New Zealand, Southeast Asia, and Africa. And since the $17B global pesticides market is projected to 3X in size by the end of the decade, there’s no better time to join them as an investor.

See how you can become an early Med-X shareholder before their planned listing under ‘MXRX’.

Whistleblowing Doctor Links Common Health Issues to Widespread “Grocery Scam” One of America’s top doctors is hoping you’ll read this before you set foot in another grocery store. Renowned cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. Steven Gundry has found an “invisible problem” affecting almost everything we eat.
