Best ways to use Castor oil for stomach cleansing

There are several ways to use castor oil for cleansing your stomach:

• Castor Oil With Ginger
  
  
• Milk Castor Oil 
  
  
• Castor Oil Detoxification Pack 

We all know that castor oil is pretty foul tasting stuff, disguising it with ginger or milk can help, but however you gloss it up, taking it is still not a pleasant experience for most of us.  So what happens?  The good intentions fly out of the window, the health benefits are ignored and we go about our daily lives putting up with the discomfort.  Sometimes, we remember that we have the answer and take an occasional dose.

But, there is another way!  Our Cleanse and Detox Support Kit will have the same cleansing effect if not better, but without any of the nasty taste.  How about that?  It’s as simple as popping a tablet or capsule on a regular basis to keep you regular!

Safe Dosage of Castor Oil:

Taking castor oil more than the permissible doses can cause some side effects. Therefore, these quantities should not be exceeded.

The following are the safe doses of castor oil depending on the age groups of people:

Adults:

In cases of constipation, one oral dose between 15-60 ml.

Before undergoing colorectal surgery: the oral dose is between 15-60 ml before 16 hours of undergoing surgery.

Children:

Less than two years:                1-5 ml once.

Between 2-12 years old:          5-15 ml once.

Children over 12 years old:      15-60 ml once.

Castor Oil With Ginger:

For a ginger tea + castor oil cleanse you can start with:

1 teaspoon of ginger powder with one cup of water

2 teaspoons of castor oil

Mix the ginger tea and the castor oil and drink it while it is warm, not cold, and not very hot.

The taste of the castor oil added to the tea might be very strong at first but remember it is highly beneficial to your health.

Castor Oil Detoxification Pack:

External application of oil to help a human body is one of the oldest ways of healing. Using castor oil for external stomach and intestines cleansing is no different from other oils.  You simply rub the warm castor oil over your belly region and then cover your belly with a clean hot towel (you can use a hot bottle of water to keep the towel hot for a longer time).  Then leave for an hour, to allow the oil to absorb and be fully effective.

This method works wonders to help your body to get rid of bloating and gas caused by the type of foods you are eating every day.

 Castor Oil and Hot Water:

Hot water and castor oil for cleansing your stomach, what an amazing mix, and there are many benefits of using this method: like removing gas and bloating, reducing acidity and many, many more.  This method is also straightforward to implement, and it is very fast if you don't have a lot of time for the castor oil detoxification pack method. 

To use this method:

You need to have an empty stomach before starting this cleansing.

Once a week, add one tablespoon of castor oil to a cup of hot water and drink it. Some sources indicate you need to drink twice a week but once is sufficient.

Castor Oil and Milk

Merging the nutrition of milk and the healing powers of castor oil is a great way to heal your gut; the milk can hide the taste of the oil that can be a little strong sometimes.

Just like the previous methods, all you have to do is once a week mix one tablespoon of castor oil with a glass of milk and drink it on an empty stomach.
