Castor oil is one of the most versatile vegetable oils used by people for thousands of years. Castor oil is extracted from the seeds of Ricinus Communis using a cold-pressing process. Although castor seeds contain the toxic enzyme raisin, the low heating process under castor oil inactivates it. Castor oil can be used safely because of this process.
