Castor oil is an excellent treatment for the skin, hair and nails. You want to know more? Here we will explain what exactly its benefits are and why you should use it regularly.
What is castor oil?
Castor oil is extracted from the seeds of the ricinus communis plant. Since ancient times, it has been used medicinally, especially as a laxative. The oil dissolves in the intestines, strongly accelerating the metabolism.
But that is not its only use. It can also be applied externally to promote hair growth or as a natural moisturizer. And the best part is that, unlike many cosmetics, castor oil is not expensive. But for us to get down to business, let's look specifically at the benefits of castor oil.
1. Helps hair growth
If you have weak hair, castor oil can help. This substance stimulates hair growth because its application improves blood circulation.
Every two days, apply a little warm oil on your scalp. Leave on for half an hour or so, and then rinse with preferably cold water.
But castor oil not only serves to prevent hair loss, but to stimulate the growth of eyelashes. If your lashes are weak or very sparse, you can apply a few drops with a cotton swab to the roots of the hairs. Be careful not to get oil in your eyes, as it can irritate them.
There are people who also apply oil to sparsely populated areas of the eyebrows and experience good results.
2. Moisturizing by nature
Castor oil is a very effective natural moisturizer. It turns out that it contains high amounts of vitamin E and fatty acids. When applied, these components go deep into the skin. In this way, the production of collagen elastin is stimulated, which makes the skin almost hydrate itself.
Consequently, many signs of aging are delayed or disappear directly. For example, sagging skin, wrinkles, fine lines in the eyes, and blemishes. Notably, many people use castor oil to even out skin tone in blemishes.
In this case, you can apply the 100% pure oil, but it is easier for the skin to absorb it, if you dissolve it in another oil. The ideal ratio is 1: 1 in olive, coconut or peanut oil.
3. A weapon against acne
Due to its anti-inflammatory effects, castor oil is perfect for fighting acne and various inflammations. For example, it is often used to treat insect bites.
The way to use it varies depending on your skin type and it is advisable that you consult a dermatologist. If you have oily skin, your doctor will likely recommend applying it only once or twice a week. This is mainly because the pores could get clogged and make things worse.
4. Keeps your nails hydrated
Many people have brittle nails, which is a real headache. They are generally so weak that any shock, force or twist breaks them. But castor oil again is the solution.
The fatty acids and proteins it contains make the structure of the nails stronger and, in addition, it hydrates them, giving them elasticity.
The ideal application is mixing 4 tablespoons of castor oil with one of vitamin E oil. Then, apply the mixture with an enamel brush from the cuticle and allow it to absorb. Do the same every day to keep your nails hydrated and protected.
5. Forget about stretch marks
Stretch marks usually appear due to abrupt weight gain or loss. It turns out that the collagen fibers under the skin break, causing the lines that can bother us so much.
The fatty acids contained in castor oil will optimize blood circulation. Therefore, its application on the thighs, abdomen or lower back will gradually fade the stretch marks until they disappear.
Scars can also be erased with the help of this product. Stimulating circulation promotes cell regeneration. However, it is a slow process that requires patience, but with time, you will see results.

Since HSV-1&2 and HPV are highly communicable, problematic and prevalent, I wonder why there is no more emphasis on finding a natural cure or solution for these viruses which affect millions more people than other STDs, including AIDS. They keep promoting the propaganda of no cure for these ailments. I was exposed to genital herpes in 2016 and I suffered a lot of anxiety and depression while looking for methods to reverse this condition. After several failures, I found a natural holistic method from “Dr okosun” that helped me recover my health from HSV and also helped in boosting my immune system.These are alternative remedies the pharmaceutical department will not tell you about, I was healed within 4 weeks of using his herbs, and my new lab result said I tested negative for the virus for the last 7 years, these herbs work greatly without side effects. This is not a promo advert. I am trying to bring awareness to people about the possibility of getting rid of HSV-1 & 2 and HPV, Hiv, Cancer and a lot more permanently to those who would want to try it out instead of dying of depression.
