In ancient medical texts, the castor plant was called Palma Christi because its leaves looked like the hand of Christ healing the sick. Today we know that its power lies in a single molecule: Ricinoleic Acid.<\/p>\n
The majority of oils remain on the skin surface. Castor oil has a molecular weight that allows it to penetrate through the corneal stratum to the deep dermis and subcutaneous tissue. There, it does something no drug can do right: Stimulate Lymphatic Flow.<\/p>\n
The Mechanism: Your lymphatic system is the body\u2019s sewer, but it doesn\u2019t have a pump (like the heart). Castor oil increases the production of lymphocytes (white blood cells) and stimulates the contraction of the smooth muscle of the lymph vessels. It\u2019s like unclogging a biological pipe. It is traditionally used to dissolve cysts, reduce fibroids, and decongest a fatty liver.<\/p>\n
The Liver Pack:<\/p>\n
Soak a cotton flannel fabric in Castor Oil (Organic and Hexane-free, very important!)<\/p>\n
Put it on your liver (right ribs).<\/p>\n
Put a bag of hot water on top.<\/p>\n
Relax for 45 minutes. Do this 3 times a week. You will sleep like a baby because your body is finally taking out the trash.<\/p>\n
