Castor Oil USP

Castor oil is often overlooked as a health and beauty treatment and is often only thought of as a remedy for constipation, but it has a long history of being used for many other healing and beauty enhancing treatments too. The oil is derived from theseeds of the Castor plant(Ricinus communis) or it also has another common name the seeds of the Palma Christi plant, also known as the palm of Christ and documentation of its use for medical purposes can be found as far back, as 1550 B. C., when the ancient Egyptians used it to treat eye irritation



Castor Oil USP
History of the Castor Seed:Ricinus Communis

Castor oil comes from the castor seed1, Ricinus communis, which has a very unusual chemical composition. Castor oil is a triglyceride, comprised of fatty acids, 90 percent of which is ricinoleic acid.


This unique fatty acid is found in lower concentrations in a few other seeds and oils (0.27 percent in cottonseed oil and 0.03 percent in soybean oil) and is thought to be responsible for castor oils unique healing properties. The castor seed plant is native to India.


Centuries ago, the plant was referred to as Palma Christe because the leaves were said to resemble the hand of Christ. This association likely arose out of peoples reverence for the plants healing abilities.


It was later adopted for medicinal use in Ancient Egypt, China, Persia, Africa, Greece, Rome, and eventually in 17thCentury Europe and the Americas. Castor oil is now widely used in industry. The stem of the plant is used in the textile industry, particularly in Russia, where castor oil is known as Kastorka.


The oil has a very consistent viscosity and wont freeze, which makes it ideal for lubricating equipment in severely cold climates. Modern non-medicinal uses for castor oil include:



  • Food additive and flavoring agent

  • Mold inhibitor

  • Ingredient in skin care products and cosmetics (lipstick, shampoo, soap, and others)

  • Used in the manufacturing of plastics, rubbers, synthetic resins, fibers, paints, varnishes, lubricants, sealants, dyes, and leather treatments; the lubricants company Castrol took its name from castor oil


The oil was first used as an aircraft lubricant in World War I. So, it has a number of handy industrial uses. But did you know that the castor seeds from which castor oil is made can be DEADLY?


Part of the Castor Seed HealsBut Another Part Kills!

The potent toxin ricin3is made from a protein in the castor seeds that, if ingested (orally, nasally, or injected), gets into the ribosomes of your cells where it prevents protein synthesis, which kills the cells. Ricin is made from the mash that is left over after processing castor seeds into oil.


Just 1 milligram of ricin is fatal if inhaled or ingested, and much less than that if injected. Eating just 5 to 10 castor seeds would be fatal.


Once poisoned, theres no antidote, which is why ricin has been used as a chemical warfare agent. Even though such a toxic component is also derived from this seed, castor oil isnt considered dangerous.


According to the International Journal of Toxicologys Final Report on Castor Oil4, you dont have to worry about castor oil being contaminated by ricin, because ricin does not partition into the castor oil. The oil has been added to cosmetic products for many years, without incident. For example, castor oil and hydrogenated castor oil were reportedly used in 769 and 202 cosmetic products, respectively, in 2002.


The U.S. FDA gives castor oil a thumbs up, deeming it generally regarded as safe and effective for use as a stimulant laxative.


The Joint Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)/World Health Organization (WHO) Expert Committee on Food Additives has established an acceptable daily castor oil intake of up to 0.7 mg/kg body weight. This amounts to, roughly, one tablespoon for adults and one teaspoon for children. Taking castor oil orally usually results in a purging of the digestive tract in about four to six hours.


According to the International Castor Oil Association5, studies in which people were dosed with castor oil at dietary concentrations as high as 10 percent for 90 days did not produce any ill effects.


In spite of the fact that U.S. FDA and the International Castor Oil Association have pronounced castor oil to be safe, if you are going to try it, as Ive mentioned previously, proceed with extreme caution because a number of negative side effects have been reported.
