How to Easily Make a Castor Oil Pack
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 лис 2020
- Castor Oil Packs have been around for centuries and continue to be used today by alternative practitioners like myself - a Registered Holistic Nutritionist. I’ve used a Castor Oil Pack on many occasions but most recently to regain my menses after having lost it for 3 months due to an extreme amount of stress. But this isn’t the only reason why you would find benefits in using one. It also detoxifies organs like the liver, reduces inflammation in the digestive tract and can help manage arthritic pain. Note that those who are pregnant, breastfeeding or menstruating SHOULD NOT use a Castor Oil Pack as it could have negative effects on the body. In this video, I demonstrate how easy it is to create a Castor Oil Pack at home. WATCH THIS NEXT: • Heal Hemorrhoids Natur...

I've read the comments here and I just want to say you are a really decent carrying person to answer everyone, even though it has been many months since your video.
Awe thank you Shelle. If it weren’t for you all - I’d have no reason to keep posting videos and growing this channel. I appreciate you. 🥰
Wow! Super easy instructions. Right to the point. Thank you for this video!
My pleasure!
This was the most helpful video I have found. Thank you!
My absolute pleasure!
Great video, I realize you answer to everyone's question which is fantastic. Well done! ❤💯👏
Thank you for your kind words Lindy!
Thank you so much for this video, so super helpful 🙏
My pleasure! Glad you found it helpful.
❤ thank you for this valuable information.
My pleasure!!!!!
Perfect video! And actual tutorial on how to make a castor oil pack!
So happy it helped you!
I use castor oil pack at night. During the day I put castor oil on my feet with warm heavy socks. I also put it on my eyelids and around my eyes. My eyes are no longer burning.
Amazing! How does it affect your feet?
@@melcannourish it absorbs through the skin. Castor oil boosts immunity when applied topically by increasing T11 cells.
I also use herbal and oil enemas for detoxing.
Thank you for sharing this!
My pleasure!
Thx. I've been wanting to learn how to do this.
Amazing - best of luck!
I really appreciate this video
Thank you!
Going to try this because these things are so expensive on Amazon, thank you so much for the information!
You're Welcome!
Thank you for your video...... I want to try a castor oil pack for my right foot where I’m experiencing pain in my arch and around the pad of my big toe. I’m praying the Lord will use this natural method for healing!
Oh yes - try it. Sending you my best.
Great video. Straight-forward instructions. Thanks!
My pleasure!!!!!
You are a gem.
Awe thank you.
Great video! Subscribed.
Thank you Shari!!!!!!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELPFULL VIDEOS ❤ WHERE WE CAN BUY ORGANIC FENNEL AND THE OIL ?
My pleasure Sophie! You may find it at a health food store or you can try Amazon!
I saw a woman used plastic wrap and old tea towel if you don’t have these items 🙏🏻💕🙋🏻♀️🩷
Thank you for sharing.
I was suprised when you said dont use the castor oil pack while menestrating i wasnt aware of that and ì used it while i was on my menstrual and i got so weak, was loosing extra blood because of the fibroids and it was all in all a horrible experience. But im gonna do it again may god continue to bless you
I'm glad you won't do that again. Sometimes we need to experience things for ourselves to realize what is good for us. Best of luck to you and God bless you too.
Thank you so much!
My pleasure!
Thank you. ❤
Great 👍 information - Castor oil is fantastic 🧡
Thank you!
Thanks! I couldn’t see buying what is easy to make on my own
What part do u make ?
Thank you! Is there a best place for application for someone dealing with full body chronic pain due to several Auto-Immune issues? Thank you!
My recommendation is that you circulate the pack throughout your body. If there is truly no specific organ that you can isolate i.e. thyroid for Hashimoto Disease, then use it in various troubled areas of your body. In fact, you can purchase pack cloths in different sizes to fit different parts of your body. You can explore a good quality castor oil company that has various sizes and receive a 10% discount by clicking the link in my video description. Best of luck to you.
Thank you for this video!!! So helpful. But why can’t you do this breastfeeding?
Great question. There are a few reasons for this. It can cause diarrhea in the baby. Castor Oil Packs detox the body so you don’t want toxins to land in breast milk. Lastly - it could reduce breast milk but don’t believe enough studies are out there showing this. Even though you’re not ingesting the castor oil, the skin absorbs it and it does go through the body. Hope this helps.
great! thank you! however you should not use a heating pad. NO EMF! I suggest to use a water bottle instead...
Or lie in sun!
I suggest taking the castor oil as a laxative, every two years. Take four table spoons, and make sure you set aside 2 to 3 days at home to go to the loo. It is a very effective detoxifier as it works internally. Plus clears your elementary canal. This is done extensively in India and even parents do it evey three years for their kids. Please only have very light non spicy soup for meals during the three days, and only go out after the laxative effect of the castor oil is over.
Thank you for sharing!
every 2 years? you mean we can only use it as detoxifier once in 2 years?
@@kimv1987 Once every two to three years is enough. More often may be harsh on your system. The stuff is a very strong and effective laxative that deep cleans your insides. Please check with your dr.
@@melcannourishdo you put soaked pad directly on skin on on shirt as you begin treatment please?
@@dawn4562 I would put the saturated pad directly on skin - yes. Not on shirt. I recommend covering the saturated pad with plastic wrap or some form of protector so that the heat source you place on top of it won't get dirty. Hope this answers your question.
Thank you
Thanks for watching!
You’re amazing. Thank u!
You're so welcome!
Thanks❤
Thank you so much its easier
@@AshleyThandiwe My pleasure!
You say to put in refrigerator up to two weeks, so am I understanding that I can reuse that same one for up to two weeks? Would be nice to reuse with the cost of the oil.
Thank you for such a clear instructions
That is correct. Then after the 2 weeks you can hand wash and re-saturate with oil. Definitely helps keep costs down. :)
Would have been nice if you had shown the label of the Castor oil you use up close and also what is a tensor band for people who are new to your channel and new to Castro oil packs. I do like your channel and I'm a new subscriber. I would be grateful for any information you have On the questions I've posed
Hi Judy - the castor oil name and a link to a tensor band example can be found within the description of the video. Unfortunately-Amazon no longer carries Palma Christi Castor Oil but feel free to use another 100% pure, cold pressed version. Thank you for subscribing 🤗
And just listen. She said the name. Listen.
Does it work for inflammatory problems like varicose veins. And how long should it be tied to the concerned area of the body
It sure can. I would allow 30 minutes, twice per day, if you can. I've read that elevating your legs following the castor oil pack treatment may also be beneficial.
Wow! What a gem you are answering everybody’s questions. Currently fighting breast cancer for the 2nd time and naturally this go around. Just learning about castor oil and how it may help break up the tumor. What are your thoughts and experiences?
I haven’t to date had anyone in my experience use it for this purpose but I would encourage you to do your research. Feel free to report back your experience.
lolol up Barbara O,Neil on natural remedies you can heal your breast and it breaks up the tumours it works
I don’t know anyone personally but I have read that people have used it to break up tumors.
@@brandimichelleakin9940 I've heard this as well but I don't personally know anyone either. I'd love to find people who have benefited in this way. Although there's no clinical evidence - there could be people who have personally experienced this. Here's hoping they find this thread and comment. :)
I googled heavy metals in pesticides and there is good reason to believe our bodies can become contaminated with these causing tumours and other ailments. Castor Oil pack can help detox the heavy metals. If both my statements are true, its pretty rational to believe it will help you. I am using it for Endometriosis
Hi I just watched your video what's the brand name or your castor oil you use. I want to know pls. So I could but the right one. Thanks.
It's Palma Cristi. But any organic, cold pressed castor oil would work well.
Never use electric heat.... only hot water bottle
Thank You 🪻🌹🌻💐🤍
My pleasure!
Hi mam, iam applying cold pressed walnut oil for goitre...will that also help?
Hello Ramya! I don't have a lot of experience with it but do know people who have used it and have said it's beneficial. You can also try the castor oil pack for this. Hope this helps.
Am new to Castor Oil n your channel, pls show the brand of oil you are using n its uses n how to use it. Thnx
Welcome to my channel! You can find the brand within my description with a 10% discount code.
A friend has melanoma that has spread to her lymph system. She has a very inflamed lymph node in her hip that has actually led to infection in her leg. Is this something that might help give her relief?
Yes! She can rub the castor oil on the node and can place a thin towel on it and a heat source on top of that. Have her do this daily.
Hello Mel. Thank you for an easy and precise tutorial. Flannel is wool right? Can I use 100% cotton like a thin towel to saturate with the castor oil. Is their a specific benefit to using flannel.
Thank you
Hi! Flannel used to always be wool but nowadays it may be cotton mixed with silk or it can be wool mixed with other fibres. You would have to investigate the one you have on hand. Flannel is recommended because it absorbs well and transfers well to the skin but 100% cotton I've found to work well too provided you put a good amount of castor oil on it and keep adding oil to it as it begins to dry out. Hope this helps.
@@melcannourish
Thank you so much for replying❤.
I think I'll go and find some good flannel rather. Definitely the best option
@@zeem8308 My pleasure! Best of luck!
@@melcannourish Also from what I have read bamboo packs even though organic are a major no no as the process of making it into a nice soft flannel(cotton) like material uses harmful chemicals and therefore the oil will draw those chemicals into you. This is very annoying because most body and liver packs are now using the cheaper bamboo and some don't even tell you in the description. What I just ended up doing is ordering the cheapest bamboo liver pack I could find($10) and then I ordered real organic cotton towels. I will then put the oil on the cotton towels and use the bamboo pack to hold the towels in place against my body. Hopefully the oil won't seep through onto the bamboo at all. This is my plan anyway. I hope this has been helpful for people who have been in the same situation.
P.S. Or you could buy the Queen of the Thrones liver pack, which is probably the best on the market, but I'm from Oz and it is way to expensive not to mention the added delivery cost as well when converted over to our pitiful Aussie dollar and you're meant to throw them out every couple of months as well. Sheesh! Cheers
@@nixbondi Thank you for this! I love your work-around. It is a perfect option. I now use Queen of Thrones and offer a 10% discount within my link in description. Likely not enough of a discount for you. Thanks for sharing your insight.
Hello.... Nice video. Thank you.... Question.
If you do this on your feet can you sleep with it. Plus the plastic till the next morning? Or only few hours.
Hi Alida! Thanks for watching. If you are placing castor oil and plastic wrap on your feet for pain relief, you will need to place a heating pad on your feet as well. I would not suggest keeping the heat on overnight. One hour is enough. If you are placing the castor oil on your feet to smooth them out, then you don't need the heat and yes, you can keep the flannel and plastic on overnight. I hope this helps. :)
@@melcannourish thank you very much.
@@alidahenning1815 My pleasure!
What type of cloth should i use? Is a normal flannel material ok ?
You got it. Regular flannel is perfectly fine.
Can you show how to do eye pad
Hi Sandi - unfortunately - I have never tried a castor oil eye pad. Sorry.
We are doing the oil pack on the knee for bone on bone pain relief. Any recommendations on how often & for how long? We just did the first time on the knee.
I recommend once per day - preferably evening - for one hour if possible. Before bed.
I love that question this is my main problem. Thank you so much for the question and the answer. God bless you ...
Should flannel piece be doubled up/two layers? Castor oil room temperature?
I would double it up - yes. The castor oil should be kept at room temperature but once you store the cloth in your fridge, the cloth will be cold. That's ok. Your body heat will warm it up.
Has anyone done this with a face cyst? If so for how long did you put the heat on for?
I have not tried this Savannah but I would anticipate that as long as the heat isn't too hot, more like warm, you could leave it on for 30-60 minutes for full benefit. If you can't do that duration then do what you can but perhaps increase frequency.
What about the heating pad? On low for the hour I assume.
I’ve always done it on high because my heating pad isn’t that strong. Use your discretion. I don’t want you burning yourself. 🙏
Hello, thank you for sharing this lovely video. During watching it I was thinking wow I could use it for tummy ache During period. Please do you know what would happen if I did use a pack during my period?
Thank you again 💚
Hello! Thank you for watching my video Jo Anne! If you use it during your period you can run the risk of bleeding significantly more. My recommendation would be to use a heating pad to soothe the pain without the oil and then use the oil once your period is over. Hope this helps!
@@melcannourish Yes 💚 I'm so pleased I ask you and very much appreciate your reply 💚 I have something which causes heavy periods and so it's really beneficial to receive your advice! Thank you and best wishes to you 💚
@@joanneg665 Anytime!
If you do it around your Time it will cause you to bleed more an be weak
@@Elizabeth-ww1jd 100% correct.
Hi ! How many times do you reuse the flannel ?
As long as you store it in the fridge in a glass tupperware, tightly sealed, you can use it as many times as you wish and then wash it at the two week mark. If you see dark spots on them within this time, throw it out because it'll mean mold has grown on it.
I use castor oil in my hair .also use it at bed time to run my joint it work like magnet that the black castor oil.i make it my self sold for only $2000 Jamaican dollar
Good for you! Castor Oil is amazing especially for hair.
How much is that in US$
Hi Mel, thanks for video. When you place it in fridge and use it the next night does one need to add castor oil again or just use it as is cold from the fridge for about two weeks before changing?
Great question Cherie! If you feel the cloth is still fairly saturated, then you're good to use as is. But eventually within the two-week span you will likely feel it dry so that is when you'd add more castor oil. Hope this helps.
Hi Mel, I’ll Gammy on my husband Al’s N as I had been reading about Castro oil over the last few days looking for something to help with pain and sciatica sacroiliac, stenosis I guess that covers most of the S’. I am five-year recovery knee replacement. I have a stent and take blood pressure and blood thinner, etc.. I am a young GIR 81. Everything in a lower part of my body hurts. I do some stretching we walk most days unless appointments, I would say at least four days a week upward to 2 miles a day. I’m thinking how in the world my world did I ever not know this about castor oil why do people hide things like that but then of course we didn’t have iPads in the Internet. So after reading my stuff, am I good to go with this pack? I had a partial hysterectomy several years back, but I still have ovaries though they may be like tiny raisins. I do have a hormone patch 😂 to keep the flashes away.
if you’re still on in reading questions, I’ll check back because I’m going to save your video and pass it on.
One is always supposed to warm it before use, preferably not in the microwave. Some people place it in a glass jar, and then they put that glass jar in a pot of simmering water to warm it. One usually adds a bit of Castor Oil as needed with each use.
How many times do you do this
@@alsimpson1659 I just saw this message. I'm very sorry for the delay. Have you tried the castor oil pack yet?
i want to apply 50/50 dmso/aloe juice first, dry, then apply the pack. can i sleep in this overnight?
You can certainly do this but I wouldn’t sleep in it overnight because you require a heat pad and it’s not safe. Hope this helps.
If you have arthritis on your hips, would you need to wrap a flannel cloth all around or just on each hip?
On each hip is fine unless you’re experiencing referral pain to your lower back or other surrounding areas.
What if you don't have heating pad what else can you use
No problem. A hot water bottle or heated bean bag will work too. 🙌
Thanks for the video, just a few questions. I've heard other people say not to use plastic with the oil pack, to put a towel first and then plastic if you must use it.Something about it pulling toxins from the plastic. Do you have any thought on that? Also that you could save and reuse the oil pad to save on castor oil, makes me wonder how to keep it if not in a plastic bag.
Great question. When it comes to using the plastic, I always try to note which side of the flannel got exposed to the plastic and I mark it so I always position it that way so the plastic never touches my body. The towel is also a way to do it. I would place the saturated flannel in a glass tupperware. Hope this helps.
@@melcannourish yes and thank you, I actually found another of your videos on storing your cloth which was a big help. I'll figure out a way to mark which side touches the plastic.
@@blkbrn1952 Amazing! Best of luck to you.
Can we use a wrap like this for our scalp
For purpose of hair growth - I recommend applying the castor oil directly to your roots and massaging it into the scalp.
I can not find this castor oil anywhere and the couple places I did find it - it’s sold out !!! Amazon’s doesn’t have it now. Any suggestions?
Where do you live Lori? I am seeing it on Amazon.ca but perhaps it depends on where you live.
I have a grapefruit-sized seroma next to my belly button which causes me much grief. Doctors don't seem to be able to help with it. I've been wondering if this pack would help shrink or dry up the seroma.
Castor Oil Packs help with the reduction of inflammation, breakdown of masses and even detoxification. I would definitely try this but remember, you need to be consistent and do it for months. It's well worth it.
Can you share a link for the Castor oil you recommend?
HI Susan - unfortunately, I'm no longer finding Palma Cristi Castor Oil online but there are several others you can purchase. Just look for 100% pure, cold pressed. And if you find organic, even better.
Trying castor oil on painful knees and leg that is red. Hopefully it will at least do no harm.
If it worsens, obviously discontinue use. If it helps you, amazing! It has helped many people.
I like the warmth of a castor oil pack and I still use it regularly. Just, I get no benefits at all. No detox, no weight loss, .... How mamy months would it take? I've been using it for three months already.
It's a great feeling indeed. You are likely getting the detox - you just won't see it. For weight-loss, are you doing it in conjunction to a diet of some sort? My weight-loss clients who hop on my 90-day program and use the pack do see results but they go hand-in-hand.
When you say "this size" for an abdominal pack, please offer the measurements. Thank you.
Hi Sandra - the size will differ per individual. When you hold your piece of cotton or flannel, measure it against your body depending on where you’re placing it. The plastic wrap is to sit on top of the fabric. Hope this helps.
Most the oil gets absorbed by a small towel
Is this good for enlarged prostate
It can definitely help. Everyone is different but it's worth a try.
where does one buy the flannel?
A fabric store or even a health store may carry a castor oil kit with all the parts you require.
Can they be bought ready made like other packs?
You can purchase a kit which comes with the flannel, castor oil, elastic bandage for security and a storage bag. The only items missing would be the plastic wrap and heat source.
thank you for the video! for ovarian cysts should i use the pack everyday and for how long thank you
You certainly can. I would advise 30-60 minutes each day. Evening may make most sense when you are relaxing. Best of luck.
thank you for your reply great help.
@@petrosgogos8832 My pleasure!
forgot to mention that i have a big incision across my belly can i still use the castor oil pack. thank you very kindly
@@petrosgogos8832 Not until the incision is COMPLETELY healed - that is the exterior and interior layers of skin.
My daughter plays tennis and hurt her finger, she has bone fragments will this help her? Thank you.
It could help reduce the inflammation but won’t help the fragments. Definitely worth trying to reduce the pain. And it’s safe.
Does this help with gallstone pain
It certainly can help reduce inflammation in this area.
When you store in the fridge, do you wait until it reaches room temp before using again?
I usually store for 24 hours but it doesn't need to be this long. If you choose to do this twice per day, storing for a few hours would suffice.
Do you have to wash the flannel before using it for the first time?
Always a good idea to wash prior to use.
Do you think castor oil could help damaged optic nerves? Either as an eye drop, or just applying it to the eye lids?
Hi Rachel - to be quite honest - I don’t have experience with eye application. When it comes to delicate areas like the eyes, I would seek assistance from a Naturopathic Doctor. Hope this helps.
How about leaving it on overnite?
Hi Debra - as long as your heating device is natural and not electric - it’s safe. Like a hot water bag or heated bean bag.
Where to find Palma cristi Cod liver oil -Help
Hi Helen - Palma Christi is actually Castor Oil - not Cod Liver Oil - and can be found at many health food stores. If you google it, you will find it online for ordering as well. Unfortunately-I haven’t seen it on Amazon yet. Hope this helps.
Does it have to be washed off same day? I had surgery yesterday so I can’t shower yet..
You don't need to wash off castor oil. You can simply rub the oil further into your skin when you're finished with the pack.
For liver detox how often and long do you do this? Thanks
You can do it daily for as long as you can. 30 minutes or 60 minutes. If you can’t do it daily, do as many days as you can but for longer stretches..
The original source of this information, Edgar Cayce, said to go 3 days on and 3 days off. An additional action was to take 2 tsp. of olive oil on days 1 and 2 of using it and 2 tablespoons of olive oil on the 3rd day, then the 3 days off and repeat.
HI!! will this work for gout
I would DEFINITELY try it!
Is there an alternative to using the plastic wrap? I worry it will transfer through the flannel
You could use an old, large towel to place on top of your flannel.
My side Hurt can I use the castoroil on my side as well
You absolutely can!
So was wondering, if it pulls out the toxins, should we wash the flannel after every use??
While it's true that toxins may be pulled out onto the flannel cloth during castor oil pack treatments, it's not necessary to change the flannel daily. The toxins absorbed by the cloth are generally small in quantity and won't cause harm if they remain on the cloth. A lot of detoxification is also done internally and excreted by the liver, feces, urine, etc. Of course, if the flannel becomes soiled or develops an unpleasant odor, it's best to replace it sooner. Hope this helps.
I have budging disks in my lower back, do you think this will help? How long should I use it?
Bulging discs are tough. It won't heal the situation but a castor oil pack done consistently over a prolonged period of time may help reduce the swelling. I would try doing it daily for one month to see if it helps. Good luck!
@mel can nourish
I am desperate. It appears the RSDS in my feet has settled in my spine.
I have started a regiment of Boswella, an anti- inflammatory turmeric blend, spirulina, and a bladderwreck/Irish sea moss blend.
Any other homeopathic idea you would be appreciated.
Either way I will report back on the packs.
@@Purplepinkmom I'm so sorry to hear this Sandra. Your regimen sounds good provided you were guided by a professional. I wouldn't recommend anything more because if something works, you won't know which one worked. Do what you have set and yes, report back on the castor oil. You have nothing to lose right?
If you use it overnight and allow heat of the electric blanket to warm it, is that okay?
100%. Always just be careful with electric anything on your body overnight.
I'm learning about this for the first time, (There must be over 50 videos on UA-cam alone by different people, using different sources of the Castor OIl, some organic, some non organic,
it's a real deep learning curve, but two questions are popping up in my head as I watch and read the comments of these various videos:
? Is it safe to keep the castor oil pack on overnite, (or can you over do it, if the goal is simply to increase bile flow and production to lower the liver enzyme GGT
? Is it just as effective to let the Castor Oil soak into the skin than apply a heating source over regular 100% cloth (this way it's less messy)
Great questions!
1. It is safe provided you aren’t using an electric heating pad.
2. No - it is best to leave the flannel on you, with castor oil and heating pad, for the entire time. Doing it gradually ensures a constant penetration and the heat aids with this. You will not reap the same benefits otherwise or at least the full extent of benefits possible. I use plastic wrap or a bag between my castor-soaked flannel and heating pad to avoid messiness.
I hope this helps.
How about bamboo towels
Absolutely! As long as it's free from chemicals (organic preferred) and it soaks up liquid easily. Good luck!
Can it used for eyes catarats?
I would be hesitant to use it on the eyes due to how delicate they are. I would definitely speak with an eye specialist about this.
Could you do this for a shorter time in a sauna? Using the sauna as your heat source.
You definitely could use the sauna. I’ve heard good things about doing it that way. Remember - it’s all about consistency.
Is Castrol oil benefits for piles pls make video on ds hope to c u r video soon
Hi Kanili - yes - castor oil does benefit piles. You can take a small piece of toilet paper, soak it with castor oil, place it on your external piles and leave it there until you go back to the washroom. It is recommended that you clean the area each time you re-apply a new piece of castor-oil-soaked toilet paper. Hope this helps.
Hi Kanili - you can now find a video on my channel demonstrating castor oil for piles. I hope it helps.
Why flannel? Can I use an old t-shirt or hand towel?
Best for oil absorption and retains heat better, whether it be your body heat or from an added source.
How often should we do this , like once a week or once a month? Is it the same as oiling the belly button?
It depends on what you're doing it for. But most people attempt to do it daily for 30-60 minutes. The purpose of it is to reduce inflammation and detoxify the area. Hope this helps.
@@melcannourish thank you so much. Appreciate
So this doesn’t go directly onto the skin? I have a 11cm fibroid that I desperately trying to reduce
So you saturate the cloth and place that on the area where you know your fibroid to be. So yes - the oil does contact your skin. Then you follow the other steps with the plastic wrap and heating pad. I would do this as many days as you can but NOT when menstruating, pregnant or breastfeeding. Hope this helps.
@@melcannourish I appreciate your reply, thank you so much xx
@@little_miss_tracy_tra231 Anytime my friend!
How often can i do this? For how long? Thanks
You can do this daily. For as long as you can. If you only have 20 minutes, great. If you have 60 minutes, even better.
Will this help a slipped disk in your spine? My husband is suffering with pain and doesn’t want to take narcotics or have surgery.
If the pain is severe, it may offer some comfort and over time it may help reduce swelling and inflammation but Castor Oil Packs take time, sometimes weeks or months. It will be trial and error for him.
Can castor oil packs help with trigger finger?
This is a great question. I've never encountered this but given it can be caused by inflammation at times, it may be worth a try as Castor Oil Packs help to reduce inflammation. Best of luck and report back if it helps.
Can Castor oil shrink and normalize the Prostate? If so how to apply?
I have yet to work with anyone who has applied the castor pack for this reason however I found this step-by-step for you online. Check it out and report back after a month on your findings. Best of luck.
www.naturalprostate.com/Castor-Oil-Treatment.html
what's the pros and cons of taking castor oil internally vs the pack?
Many opt for interval use for laxative purposes. It can be very beneficial for this purpose; however, some may experience allergic reactions, castor oil may not work well with certain medications, and if too much is taken, it can be poisonous. Always consult a doctor before interval use. External use is beneficial for inflammation reduction. Hope this helps.
@@melcannourish doctors I know wouldn't know anything about castor oil, "snake oil" 😜
@@shellebelle4842 Haha - conventional doctors - you’re right. Naturopathic Doctors are likely the only ones that would.
@@melcannourishI have intense pain all over my body , I actually cannot move and fell like I'm turning to stone, I have taken steroids for over 2 years 12ml a day the doctor wants me to take 20 but I can't
Please where do I put the castor oil , this is my last hope as I cannot live like this
Thank you
@@AD-53 I’m so sorry to hear this. You should put it on various areas of pain. One day do one body part and another day change it up. Or do one part for one week and then change. Consistency is key. I hope this helps and good luck!
How many ties can you use the same castor oil pack before it needs to be washed, etc? I am new to castor oil packs :)
You can go two weeks before you need to wash provided you keep it in a sealed, glass Tupperware and in your fridge.
Ok thank you for such a quick response :)❤
@@JillyKins My pleasure!
Is it good for Low AMH level
I've never worked with anyone who tried it for this reason but it is definitely worth a try as many have said it has helped to improve their fertility.
