Avoid If...
Don't take Castor Oil if you have nausea, vomiting, an intestinal blockage, appendicitis, severe inflammatory intestinal disease, or any abdominal pain of unknown origin. Not recommended for pregnant and nursing women and children under 12.
Yes, you can cook with castor oil... What exactly do you think it's going to do for you? It is not that great unless you are constipated or trying to encourage labor. Take a multivitamin. Why castor oil? I'm confused.
If you wanted to take it every dayand not get diarrhea, the ammount you would take would beso small that there would be no point. If you are trying to get regular, you are better off with fiber (like, eat an apple) and drink more water..
Castor oil every day? That's insane!
