Castor oil is one of the oldest healing remedies known to humanity, quietly used for centuries across cultures to support cleansing, circulation, and tissue healing. In this episode of Chasing Eden, host Caroline Thompson explores the fascinating history of castor oil—from ancient Egyptian medicine and early Western natural healing traditions to its continued use in holistic health today. Rather than approaching castor oil as a trend or cure-all, this conversation invites listeners to understand why it has endured as a gentle, supportive tool for the body.
Drawing from the teachings of Dr. Barbara O’Neill, historical writings from Dr. Chase, and modern perspectives from voices such as Dr. Berg, Dr. Axe, Dr. Gundry, Dr. Huberman, and Dave Asprey, the episode explains how castor oil has traditionally been used to support lymphatic flow, reduce inflammation, and encourage the body’s natural detox pathways. The discussion carefully distinguishes historical and supportive uses from modern medical treatment, offering clarity without hype or fear.
This episode also addresses common questions and concerns, including how castor oil is used today, when it may be helpful, and when caution or discernment is needed. Ultimately, Castor Oil: The Ancient Remedy Modern Medicine Never Quite Let Go Of is a thoughtful exploration of how ancient wisdom and modern understanding can coexist—reminding us that healing often begins with patience, simplicity, and respect for the body’s design.
