 "The oil that is stored in the endosperm of castor beans is meant to provide the embryo with energy during its germination. However, at least 6,000 years ago in ancient Egypt, humans had already discovered the usefulness of castor seed oil and took Ricinus communis into cultivation. Since these ancient times until the present day, ‘castor oil’ is used as a lubricating laxative to relief constipation. Taken in moderation, castor oil does just that but an overdose will inflict explosive diarrhoea. Accompanied by painful cramps, the latter can last for hours, causing unpredictable involuntary bowel movements of considerable magnitude even during sleep."

-The seed oil (used as laxative) is extracted by cold pressing to avoid the highly toxic lectin [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ricin|ricin]] from dissolving in the oil. Ingestion of only two seeds may be fatal... "Ricinoleic acid, which is formed from triglycerides under the influence of lipase in the small intestine, enhances the formation of prostaglandin E2, endogenous NO and the release of serotonine and histamine. These properties reduce the net resorption of fluids and electrolytes, and stimulate peristalsis." \\+The seed oil (used as laxative) is extracted by cold pressing to avoid the highly toxic lectin [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ricin|ricin]] from dissolving in the oil.
