Warning: Castor oil is approved as a laxative for short-term constipation relief, not as a “colon cleanse.” There’s no scientific evidence it eliminates candida, parasites, or changes mental/emotional state. Overuse can cause dehydration and electrolyte imbalance. https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/castor-oil/ https://www.webmd.com/drugs/2/drug-278/castor-oil-oral/details https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK551626/
