Against pain: Castor oil is a triglyceride and about 90% of the oil consists of ricinoleic acid, which has anti-inflammatory properties.

For the hair:Its fatty acids and vitamin E content help with hair development. When applied to hair and scalp, it stimulates hair growth, blood circulation and removes any bacteria, fungi and dandruff. Apply to the roots and leave on so they can receive necessary nutrients from the castor oil. Helps in the treatment of hair loss and split ends. The oil traps the moisture in the hair and prevents dryness of hair, eyelashes and eyebrows.

Use as a laxative: When taken orally, ricinoleic acid is released into the intestine and then acts as a laxative. Many women tend to complain about constipation after childbirth. Take castor oil before going to bed in the evening, and the acid will help with good bowel movement.
