10 Uses For Castor Oil
Use For Castor Oil #2: Anti-Inflammatory
There are numerous conditions that can cause the tissues in our bodies to become inflamed. Depending on the nature of the inflammation, this can be very uncomfortable and also unsightly. It can also cause a loss of mobility, but it often very difficult to treat. There are various medications available, but one possible solution is castor oil.
Ricinoleic acid, found in castor oil, has anti-inflammatory properties. When applied directly on the skin, it can help to reduce inflammation, reducing other symptoms such as pain at the same time. More research needs to be carried out, although those with inflammation problems can try using it topically without any risk of harm.
