Black Castor Oil: For years, people across the globe have depended on pharmaceutical companies for their medicinal needs in almost everything. And yes, the medical formulations these companies have prepared, brought us great benefits. However, they also carried certain drawbacks. We practically have no idea about the chemicals that they put into these medicines which have led to adverse effects that we sometimes suffer. But in recent years, people across the globe have turned to cheaper alternative medicines theorized to help heal or supplement health in its most natural form.
The Jamaican Black Castor Oil is like any other castor oil when it comes to its root source. It comes from the seeds of the castor plant also known as Ricinus communis. The only difference here is how it is prepared.
Many herbal oil formulations which are being produced worldwide follow some acceptable standard preparation. The seeds are pressed to produce the oil. This will obviously be collected. The Jamaican Black Castor Oil is prepared differently where, instead of pressing the seeds first, they are roasted till they turn black. But not too much that they will dry up. The resultant color of the seeds is the reason behind the name Black Castor Oil.
According to most practitioners, the Jamaican Black Castor Oil is more potent than its regular counterpart. It may have been the effect of the heat on the seeds. It may have stirred up some of its natural contents resulting to the production of oils which are more potent. The reason behind this is the change in its pH which becomes more alkaline than usual. And the higher the pH, the more potent it becomes especially in cleansing any part of the body.
