I thought I would share this. I have been told by a few NP doctors that this is a great way to detox. I plan on trying this because as we know Caster Oil has been used for hundreds of years for many natural remedies with great success.....
CASTER OIL FOR DETOX
One of the most ancient remedies that has nearly been forgotten is castor oil. It has been used for centuries in India, China, Africa, Greece, Rome, and Europe. It heals so well that it was often called “The Palma Christi” or “Hand of Christ.”
Castor oil is another trifecta remedy. That means, it is anti-fungal, antibacterial and antiviral. Plus, it can be used both externally and internally.
Castor oil not only contains the natural infection fighting properties, but it also stimulates detoxification in the body by pulling out toxins. The most effective way to use castor oil for healing most illnesses is using castor oil packs.
Applying castor oil packs can bring relief and healing to a number of conditions. Some of it’s more common uses include:
* Relieves chronic pain and tension by decreasing inflammation
*Restores proper digestion and bowel elimination when used over the abdomen
*Naturally detoxifies the liver, kidneys, intestines, and lymph system
*Draws out infections
*Heals scars, cysts, and tumors
CASTER OIL PACK:
Using a castor oil pack is incredibly easy, but it can get a bit messy. Be sure and wear older clothes when using the packs. You will need:
*A soft, clean, thick material like flannel, wool, or cotton (organic is best)
*Castor oil
*A glass bowl or glass jar that you can pour the castor oil in over your material
*A hot water bottle or heating pad
*A plastic bag (I find kitchen or regular garbage bags work best)
*A large towel
You first want to prepare your fabric. You will need at least 2 layers of the material you choose. Cut the fabric to size according the the area you are going to be covering. Next, cut a layer from the plastic that is slightly bigger than the fabric. This is to cover the oily fabric and keep it from getting oil everywhere. Saturate the fabric in castor oil. Make sure it is fully saturated, but not dripping. Apply the castor oil fabric over the area you are treating and cover with the plastic. Next, place the heating pad or hot water bottle on top. Finally, cover the entire thing with a towel. Leave in place an hour to an hour and a half.
Remember to always place the castor oil packs over the affected area you want to treat. For example, If you want to break up gallstones, put the pack over the gallbladder. If you want to detoxify the liver, place it over the liver. The castor oil soaks deep into the bodies tissues, to the affected area to do it’s job. If you put it in the wrong place, then it won’t give you the results you’re looking for!
