Mention castor oil to anyone over 50 and they will likely shiver and even wince from long ago memories which imprinted permanent emotions set in place to hopefully protect them from suffering ever again at the wrong end of a spoonful of castor oil.
During the early to mid 1900's castor oil was associated with good health during the cold winters burdened with a minimal number of sunlight hours.
However, the strong taste of the heavy oil and its "effect" will make many, after the recognizable shiver, change the subject in a current conversation.
I am delighted to have this opportunity to offer relief for those who shudder with the "castor oil shiver" by providing a whole new perspective on the slick stuff, while, simultaneously, enlightening more recent generations about its virtues!
Join me on my visit "through the looking glass" to the other side of castor oil, one that starts from the OutsideIn!
