Castor oil incredibly cleansing but it seems to be able to heal the body in various ways

Some of the older generation were often forced to take a tablespoon by their mothers in an attempt to keep them healthy and by all accounts still remember the ghastly incidents to this day. Not only is castor oil incredibly cleansing but it seems to be able to heal the body in various ways, whether it be a cellular disfunction or an external skin condition.

Someone recommended I read  The Oil That Heals by William A McGarey who talks of a guy called Edgar Cayce who could lie down on a couch and enter an altered state of consciousness and be able to tell what was going on in someone else’s body who happened to be 2000 miles away. Cayce died in 1945 but there have been many books written on the accuracy of his 14,306 ‘readings’ related to other’s health or lack thereof. It was reported that he that first suggested using a castor oil pack for a lady suffering with cancer of the upper bowel. The book is interesting and packed full of stories where castor oil has healed many illnesses from skin conditions to hearing problems to hernias.

Here’s a partial list in Cayce’s unique language of how castor oil affects the body:

• Increases eliminations
• Stimulates the liver
• Dissolves and removes adhesions
• Dissolves and removes lesions
• Relieves pain
• Releases colon impaction
• Reduces nervous system
• Stimulates the gall bladder
• Incoordinations reducing toxemia
• Reduces flatulence
• Increases lymphatic circulation
• Improves intestinal assimilation
• Balances eliminations
• Reduces inflammation
• Increases relaxation
• Dissolves lacteal duct circulation
• Reduces swelling
• Stimulates the caecum (yup, had to google that!)
• Reduces nausea
• Coordinates liver function
• Stimulates organs and glands

Phew! And that is just a partial list! Bottom line – castor oil rocks and for some unknown reason is able to being the body back into balance.  Here’s a list of the conditions it can help improve:

• Cancer
• Colitis
• Gallstones
• Hepatitis
• Hookworm
• Lymphitis
• Parkinsons
• Ringworm
• MS
• Hodgkin’s Disease
• Epilepsy
• Arthritis*
• Cerebal palsy
• Constipation
• Hernia
• Appendicitis

* I have applied one castor oil pack to my mum’s ankle which keeps giving way and she has already experienced less pain and swelling.

How To Take It

Castor oil can be taken by mouth, in an enema or as a pack.

By Mouth

Take 1-2 tablespoons as needed.

Enema

You’ll need an enema kit which is available to buy online. First, run boiling water down the enema tube to soften it. Then, ensuring the tap at the end of the tube is closed, pour 4 tablespoons of oil into the bucket letting it fill up the tube. Then add coffee as per theinstructions here. Insert the tube as per a usual enema only with this type, you don’t need to hold the solution in for 15 minutes. As soon as all of the solution is in, sit on the toilet and release. The castor oil helps to rid the intestinal tract of any toxic residue that a normal enema cannot get access to.

Castor oil pack

What you’ll need;

• cotton flannel cloth
• plastic sheet or bin bag
• electric heating pad or hot water bottle
• castor oil
• towel

Fold the cloth 2-3 times over creating a rectangular or square pad measuring approx 10 by 12 inches (for abdominal application.) Pour some castor oil over the flannel and apply to the area of the body that is needed. (I place mine in a glass oven dish and warm it gently before applying as it’s best not to put on directly cold.) Place the plastic over the flannel cloth, place the heating pad on top, followed by the towel (you can put the towel on top and then the heating pad if it’s too hot for you) and leave for at least an hour to one hour and a half. Once done, rub the castor oil into your body for a luxurious moisturising treatment!
