Product Description
Castor Oil (Ricinus communis), used since Egyptian times as a folk remedy for a wide variety of ailments. Nature's Shield castor oil is certified organic and sustainable and is cold-press extracted, for preservation of its natural qualities.
If you suffer pain or constipation castor oil is an effective lubricant and laxative. It oils joints, clears the colon, softens growths and soothes inflamed skin. Nature’s Shield cold pressed castor seeds yield superior quality oil. They contain high doses of ricinoleic acid and a steroid precursor which heals ligaments.

It can be applied on skin, hair, nails and joints to heal dermatitis, cracks, degeneration and inflammation. A very light coat on your eyebrows and hair acts as a glossy serum and promotes hair growth.
