NOW Foods Castor Oil 650mg puts castor oil into softgels with added fennel oil, giving a tidy way to take it without measuring out a spoonful of thick oil.
Key features
- 650mg castor oil per softgel
- Combined with fennel oil
- Oil taken from the beans of the castor plant (Ricinus communis)
- Softgel format avoids the strong taste of liquid castor oil
About the ingredients
Castor oil is pressed from the seeds, often called beans, of the castor plant. It has a very long history of internal use in traditional households and is known for its thick, heavy texture. Fennel is an aromatic herb related to dill and anise, and its seed oil is used in cooking and herbal products alike. Here the two are paired in a single softgel aimed at people interested in digestive regularity. Many find softgels far more pleasant than taking castor oil straight from a bottle.
Available in a 120 softgels pack.
