The Lost Art of Pure Castor Oil

At Rangamalai Organic Farms, we don’t just “manufacture” oil; we craft it using a time-honored method almost lost to modern industry. Most market castor oils are solvent-extracted and harsh. Ours is different.

The Traditional “Water & Sun” Process

1. Cold Pressing: We first extract the oil from premium castor seeds using a wood/cold press expeller to preserve its rich nutrients.

2. Water Purification: Unlike industrial oils refined with chemicals, we boil our extracted oil in water. This traditional step naturally separates and removes toxic fatty acids (ricin) found in raw seeds.

3. Sun Filtering: We skim the pure oil that floats to the top and place it under direct sunlight for several days. This slow, natural evaporation removes moisture and “cooks” the oil to perfection, giving it a golden hue and a smooth, non-sticky texture.

Nature’s Multi-Purpose Healer

• Natural Body Coolant: In traditional Indian households, applying 2-3 drops to the belly button, center of the head, and big toes is the fastest way to reduce body heat within 15-30 minutes.

• Gentle Laxative (Constipation Relief): Safe for internal use. A teaspoon before bed helps relieve constipation. A larger dose (2-3 tsp) taken once every two months on an empty stomach acts as a powerful colon cleanser.

• Skin & Hair Conditioner: Thick and rich in Vitamin E, it deeply hydrates dry skin, heals cracked heels, and promotes thicker eyebrows and eyelashes.

How to Use:

• For Heat: Apply a drop to the navel and scalp.

• For Constipation: Take 1 tsp with warm water or milk at bedtime.

• For Detox: Take 2-3 tsp early morning (once in 2 months) for a complete gut cleanse.
