Made from castor seeds, castor oil is rich in triglycerides and ricinoleic acid, making it a potent medicinal oil with a variety of uses, both internal and external. For many, castor oil is a go-to remedy for various ailments. Here are seven benefits of castor oil that might convince you to incorporate it into your routine:
1.Constipation Castor oil taken orally can act as a stimulant to the intestines, potentially aiding in relieving constipation. However, it’s important to consult your doctor for appropriate dosage and usage.
2.Relieve Dry, Itchy Skin Castor oil is excellent for hydrating dry skin. According to Medical News Today, its humectant properties help draw moisture from the air. For a homemade lotion, mix 3/4 cup shea butter, 4 tablespoons of castor oil, and 5 to 10 drops of lavender, Roman chamomile, or carrot seed essential oil. Whip the mixture until smooth, then store it in jars for regular use.
3.Cleanse Your Face With its antimicrobial properties, castor oil can help prevent acne. It is also thick enough not to clog pores. For a facial cleanser, try these combinations: for oily skin, mix 1 part castor oil with 3 parts safflower or primrose oil; for combination skin, use 1 part castor oil with 4 parts argan oil; for dry skin, combine 1 part castor oil with 10 parts camellia oil.
