Castor oil, a common cure
From eons, Castor Oil has been used worldwide to treat a variety of health conditions. A common cure for many ailments, grandmothers would reach out for it whenever needed to naturally speed up the healing.
Castor Oil is produced by cold-pressing the castor seeds of the castor bean plant, it is then clarified by heating the oil. It has traces of dense, concentrated source of ricinoleic acid which has many healing abilities. This rare compound - Ricinoleic acid is not found in any other substances, thus making Castor oil unique. Castor oil also contains certain beneficial salts and esters that function primarily as skin-conditioning agents. They help stabilize the texture and consistency of products, which is why castor oil is used in so many cosmetics, hair and skin-care treatments.
