Product description

Castor oil is a thick, colorless to pale yellow vegetable oil derived from the seeds of the castor bean plant (Ricinus communis). While the seeds contain a potent toxin called ricin, the oil extraction process, typically involving cold-pressing and heat, deactivates the toxin, making the oil safe for use. Rich in ricinoleic acid, a unique fatty acid, castor oil has been used for thousands of years in medicinal, cosmetic, and industrial applications.
