✅ Top Benefits of Castor Oil

🌿 1. Skin Health

• Deep moisturizer: Rich in ricinoleic acid (a fatty acid), it hydrates dry skin and locks in moisture.

• Anti-inflammatory: Reduces redness, swelling, and irritation (useful for dermatitis and sunburn).

• Antimicrobial: Helps prevent bacterial infections on wounds and acne-prone skin.

• Scar and stretch mark reduction: May improve skin elasticity and fade blemishes over time.

🌿 2. Hair and Scalp

• Promotes hair growth: Increases blood flow to hair follicles when massaged onto scalp.

• Strengthens strands: Prevents breakage and split ends.

• Fights dandruff: Antifungal and moisturizing properties relieve scalp dryness and flaking.

• Thickens eyebrows and eyelashes: Applied with a spoolie or cotton bud.

🌿 3. Constipation Relief

• Natural stimulant laxative: Taken orally (in small doses), it stimulates bowel movement by increasing muscle contractions in the intestines.

  • ⚠️ Use only under guidance — overuse can cause cramping and dehydration.

🌿 4. Joint and Muscle Pain Relief

• Applied topically or as a castor oil pack on joints or abdomen, it may reduce inflammation in arthritis or muscle pain.

🌿 5. Wound Healing

• Keeps wounds moist, reduces dryness and cracking, and may promote faster tissue regeneration.

🌿 6. Anti-Fungal & Antibacterial Uses

• Effective against fungal skin infections, athlete’s foot, or minor wounds due to undecylenic acid (a breakdown product of ricinoleic acid).

🌿 7. Menstrual Pain Relief

• Traditional use: warm castor oil packs placed on the lower abdomen to ease cramps.

🧴 How to Use

• Topical: Apply directly or mix with carrier oils (like coconut or olive oil).

• Hair: Use as a scalp massage oil or overnight hair mask.
