I follow a lady named Barbara O'Neil who's a former nurse and naturopath and she has all natural remedies for all kinds of things. She explains a concoction that cured my friend's full-blown neuropathy with fully numb feet as he was going through chemotherapy fighting cancer last summer. He tried the concoction and within one day his foot numbness went away after he had been suffering with it for months. It's very simple, you take a piece of Saran Wrap and put a paper towel on top of it. Fold the paper towel in half and pour castor oil on it. Then you completely cover it with Cayenne Pepper and place your foot on it. Wrap your foot up in the Saran Wrap and then put a sock over it and sleep with them that way overnight and it solved his foot numbness within one day! Try it! It's fully natural and very inexpensive just make sure your castor oil is organic cold-pressed hexane-free and that it comes in a dark amber glass bottle. The one I use is Queen of the Thrones because it hits all the marks but there are others on the market. Good luck to you and God bless you.
My Mom took castor oil her life and gave us kids some once a week. She lived to be 100. I will be 78 in one month. Very healthy. Praise God and castor oil. !!!
@@valerierosproy1255the problem is the bottles don’t say internal or external usage so how do you know which one to take? The one I buy is organic hexane free in a dark glass bottle but I only use it topically! I don’t know where to get a castor oil you can drink? And no one in these videos tells you anything or gives product suggestions. It’s so annoying.
I have read many books, I listened to many TH-cam videos by many of the world's leading gurus and health experts but nothing came close to the hidden herbs by anette ray. I recommend everyone giving it a read.
Want a cure for neuropathy - quit eating sugary foods for 30 - 60 days and see what happens - it worked for me and it could work for you. I cut out all pies, ice cream, doughnuts, Little Debbies etc... for around 60 days and my neuropathy pains went away by 90%. Plus I lost 8 pounds and I feel better and I sleep better and it didn't cost me a dime - it actually saved me money - and the pains are almost totally gone. Thank God.
I had quite serious neuropathy quite awhile ago, and found Benfotamine (since it has been quite a long while since I used it I may have misspelled Benfotamine).the point is it quickly and completely cleared up the neuropathy!
I'm 74. Type 2 diabetic. I saw your video one week ago, and immediatly ordered a bottle of the cold pressed castor oil. The stuff showed up on Monday, and that night my wife rubbed it on my legs. (at about 7 pm.) I have those cloth support sleeves and put them on after we greased me down. 5 hours later she came back to my room and took the sleeves off. Tuesday am I had at least a 50% reduction in neuropathy pain, and needles and pins. I've been a type 2 diabetic for 30 years . I was astonished at the relief. It continues yet! And as an extra bonus? I've had ED for 20 Years. This morning I didn't piss on my feet!!! Thank You so much for your excellent research and your selfless sharing of a correction to a problem that many sufferers see no reasonable end in the future. Bless you!
@@rexstratton73_12 Hi Rex! Thank you so very much for such an incredible comment and sharing your experience. It has amazed me how many long time neuropathy sufferers have written in saying they’ve had a similar experience. Quite frankly I’m astounded because I knew it worked for me but never expected so many others to have such drastic results. This makes my heart happy. The other benefits that are occurring secondary to its use are kind of amazing as well. Again thank you for letting me and others know. Please continue to update. I’ll be doing another video compiling viewers comments and discoveries in the next few weeks and yours will definetly be included ❤️ Danielle
@@lucidmed3343 Well, I was skeptical. But the alternatives my MD offers are pharmaceuticals. I'm already up to my ass in bottles of pills. I said I didn't want to take anymore. I'm a former hippy. I remember the days when I read about alternatives to drugs. Deep inside I had a feeling that some natural item might help me out. But I didn't know where to look for it. This event has given me hope that whatever time I have left to live? It won't be in crippled agony.
When I was a kid, growing up in the country in the 60’s, I was barefoot most of the time and developed two “planters warts” on the bottom of one foot. My mom would put a couple drops of castor oil on them a couple times a day (with a bandage to help keep the oil there) , they were completely gone in less than two weeks.
Man I've had a planters wart for 3-4 years now and I just got some castor oil for a cleanse I'm doing but looks like I'm getting rid of that planters wart too
After spending thousands of dollars on gabapentin, lyrica, lidocaine, among other meds that don’t work I was will to spend $6.99 at CVS and give it a try. If it didn’t work I could always use it a a lubricant for my model trains. Results after first try today. All I can say is WOW. IT reduced the pain, tingling, burning in my toes and from part of my feet. This $6.99 bottle should last me for a year. But I’ll report back with my long term results in 6 months. Thank you! Great video!!!
You do not have to heat the entire bottle because it will ruin the oil when you repeatedly do it instead put a small amount of oil into a small glass and place it in a warm water container. Please heat only the amount of oil you need it on that day
@@dianealarcon8304 Yes! You made the comment I came her to state. The body creates its own heat. I put the same pair of cotton socks over my oily feet each night (for up to a week at a time) so as not to get the oils all over bedsheets. By morning it is nicely absorbed into skin.
Hi Starry! Trust me I know. I'm so upset that the music is less than desireable. I switched editing softwares and haven't worked out the kinks yet with settings. When I heard it I almost cried. Danielle
I am on my way to becoming a certified aromatherapist and will tell you and anyone else who reads this: DO NOT HEAT YOUR BOTTLE OF CASTOR OIL!! If you would like to warm the portion you are about to use, I wouldn’t recommend it but may be a personal preference decision. When you heat oils you break the molecules down and the oil will become rancid much more quickly than would be the case if you cared for it properly. Storing oils in a cool dark place is always best and will prolong the therapeutic effect because the oil will last longer. Hope that helps😉
@@CamMcB hi! And yes I’ve seen that as well. For my 1st foray into castor oil for neuropathy I wanted to just see what it did on its own before I started adding anything else. I know many add frankincense for facial applications but I may begin to experiment a bit :) D
@@lucidmed3343 I add a few drops of frankincense and castro oil. Mixed and rubbing on my eyelids for cataracts. Careful it will sting in the eyes. My vision in the left eye is 20 20 now
I have very painful joints, especially in my hands, but everywhere. I mix castor oil with a little grape seed or olive oil, and add frankincense oil. It’s a great pain reliever and is fantastic for dry skin!
I used a castor oil pack last night, I was in horrendous pain, I could hardly get up off the chair, and trying to walk was excruciating, ! This morning I have no pain, none, and my spine has fractures, I’m amazed, ! My doctor will b amazed as well, 😮😊😊😊😊😊😊
@@noeldeal8087 hi there, I put it on the small of my back, I have an old injury there from years of using a polisher machine, when I was a cleaner, and the pain is excruciating, and sometimes I can hardly stand, I’ve got arthritis there, but I came across this video and thought ,well, I’ve tried tablets and they never helped, I tried deep heat and that on its own didn’t didn’t cut it either, so, like I said I thought just try this castor oil thing, and see what happens, if anything, so I bought a bottle, put some on it, held on there by my underwear by the way, put a warm hot water bottle against the small of my back wrapped in an old cotton dish towel, propped myself up with my pillows, fell asleep, woke up at 9:00 am, no broken sleep, no pain, and was able to get out of my bed ,stand up, and walk around, and I tell you this, it lasted all day, now I’ve twinges, getting in the car, and out, but I’ve done the same again, and I’m getting great relief, It’s a big deal for me, and I’m going to keep on going with it, I’m getting a sleep, which is a big deal in itself for me, but waking up without pain,I’m in awe, and I haven’t moaned, or been crabbit for two whole days now, but if you,d have told me castor oil pack would help me , I’d have laughed at you, but I had to try something for the knawing, constant pain, I can’t speak for anyone else, but, it seems to be doing something,, Im getting great relief, That much so, I cried yesterday morning, just with the sheer blinking relief from that horrible pain, and being able to move about, I hope to God it continues to do so, so if I’m experiencing relief like this, after two days of using it, what am going to be like after the 30 days ? Keeping my fingers crossed, I ll let you know what happens tho , it will interesting to see if this works longer term, God I hope so, I can get used to this relief,
Three meds my doctor prescribed for me at the same time caused my neuropathy…lisinopril, amlodipine and hydrochloride,and also prescribed a cholesterol med Lipitor when my labs proved my cholesterol was always in normal range. I stopped taking the first three meds and in a couple of months neuropathy was 95% eliminated. Never took the Lipitor. I though my doctor had my back 😢 I now use homeopathic products, and my doctor is surprised that they are working!!! Do your research!!!
What did they give u those meds for ? High cholesterol? Or neuropathy or for other conditions? I’m goin to hav to check my meds n see if I take any of those. My nerve dr jus prescribed me an anti depression pill that’s been around awhile that help to quite the nerves..I haven’t started it. Just got it few days ago. I need to get a job but suffer with the foot pain😢
@@stephaniemamatree5973 That's a good idea. Ask your primary physician to reevaluate ALL your pharmaceuticals to see if there are any you can reduce or eliminate. I hope that castor oil works for you as well as it has for me.
Hexane free Caster oil is excellent lubricant for dry skin, psoriasis, eczema and can be safely use as an eye drop to relieve dry eyes, improve cataracts. I use it all over my body for close to a year now. My body just love this natural oil that grows in my garden and were being used by my great grandmom and the generations before and after her. See Barbara O'Neill's advice on caster oil uses. It has been tried and used and found to be better than anything made in a lab. For cold feet(poor circulation) , put some caster oil on a piece of cloth sprinkle some cayenne pepper on it, apply it to your feet and put a plastic bag on, then put your feet in socks. You wil wake up few hours after that with warm feet and will not have any circulation troubles after doing that❤.
I've had four prostate surgeries. I bought a blue glass bottle of castor oil, organic and hexane free. I take 1 table spoon before i go to bed. Im on day 7 and I felt the difference. Its a miracle cure for sure.
@@tarafaulkner Hi Tara! This is so funny-I'm glad you found the channel and happy to have you. The sound is rough but if you're OK with it I'm relieved. Danielle
I still have my quart bottle of castor oil, (with a little left in the bottom!), that I purchased back in 1989 after I read about it in one of the books about Edgar Cayce.
It actually dissolves bone spurs, and stops the pain within 2 days. It can take up to 3 months for the spur to be gone, but the pain won't be there. Same with Plantar Fasciatis, helps really quickly to stop the pain, and within 4-6 weeks to be gone. Great for athritis and rheumatism, rub into affected joints. It absorbs best straight after shower/bath. If it doesn't say Hexane free, it's not. Must be Organic, Hexane free, Cold pressed, in a dark, glass bottle. To anyone doubting, just try it. I bottle is cheaper than a prescription, and has many uses. Heals wounds incredibly well, leaving skin unscarred. Truly grows hair, mix with a carrier oil, like Olive, Jojoba, Argan. Rub into scalp, put a satin bonnet/scarf/shower cap on, leave overnight. Amazing stuff. Gets rid of corns, verruccas, warts. Beware of knock offs, get a reputable brand. I'm in England, but a good one in America is Heritage. Queen of Thrones used to be cold pressed, not anymore, it's expeller pressed.
@@DeKKH Yes. Massage the effected area at least once a day. If you are in the US, Heritage is a good brand. You should start noticing an improvement within days, don't stop. Carry on using it even when the pain is gone. Let me know how you getting on.
I used this because I took a new medication that constipated me. If fixed that problem. After several weeks I realized my chronic back pain was gone and the pain in my hips and knees was absent. It’s good stuff and I’m recommending to all my friends….and I am sleeping really good! Thank you
@@marialissetteneiracuadra8348 Hi Maria! I go through how I apply it in the video at about 12:02. Not sure if you watched the whole thing but I discuss my findings and application roughly midway through. Danielle
@@marialissetteneiracuadra8348I’m pretty sure she ingested. Olive oil will do the same if you are constipated. Just one tsp or tbsp of olive oil in the morning on an empty stomach will help. I would squirt little lemon juice over it for taste.
Thank you for this video. I have just recently started using this! one drop on Each Eyelid . I Have Sjogrins syndrome. Confirmed by blood work through a rheumatologist and the Dry eye issues that plague me with blufferitus. When I first applied Castor oil to my eyelid, I rubbed it into the eyelashes and all around my eyebrows.. What I found interesting was that my vision improved in the eye that I had an aneurysm bleed. I have permanent scarring on the retna. My vision in both eyes cleared up right away in minuits, and I could focus more clearly. Must have been the anti inflammatory effect. It gives me peace becausee I fall a lot due to another inflammation issue in my lymph system of my neck. This has helped because I don't have the blurry vision when I'm using the Castor oil. I have now moved to twice a day morning and evening. One drop each eye lid. I will be trying this on my feet next.
Hi there! Thank you so much for commenting and sharing your experience with castor oil. I love when viewers write about what they found with a topic I've covered and I truly appreciate you taking the time to do so! Your vision clearing is fantastic and I did find research about this I'm nervous to try it myself because of my initial reaction when my face started itching. I may (like you) give it another go round. Danielle
@lucidmed3343 The itching was the reason I used it on my eyelashes and it worked immediately And it lasts for several hours in the morning. I'm also diabetic and take small amounts of insulin. I figured if you can swallow this for constipation, it's safe enough for your skin . The glands that keep the oil in your eyelids for lubricating your eye, plug up as a side effect of Sjogrins, so that's why I decided to use it on my lids and I've noticed that my crows feet wrinkles are reducing..!! And the bottle of castor oil I purchased from the pharmacy for constipation issues and decided to use it for my eyelids.
@privilegednonyobusiness4977 from my understanding you want to avoid using castor oil with hexane for the eyes. The one I purchased "Jamaican Black Castor Oil" for external use only. Please research and be safe.
This is amazing information. This is my first time on this program, but I'm definitely going to be following your posts. I am excited about the neuropathy information and now this information from a Sjogrens Syndrome sufferer too. I've also been having problems with my eyes and I thank you for your information on a way to help with the itchiness and blurriness. I feel like I've won the lottery tonight with all this wonderful information. THANKS AGAIN!
Although I did hit the like button and subscribe to your channel, you most likely know that there are comments saying that the music is distracting. I am recovering from a concussion, so for me I can’t even finish listening to your video as I have heightened sensory issues. I also am a retired occupational therapist and I can tell you that individuals especially in their 20s and younger 30s are experiencing auditory sensory issues as well. So with that said, perhaps research music that may not irritate the central nervous system. Thank you for this video and all the information.
@@sweetpeanmolly hi sweet pea, I appreciate your support even though the music was not agreeable. What happened is I switched editing software which did a really bad job of allowing me to control the audio ducking resulting in music and sound effects that were way too loud. I didn’t realize how bad they were until after upload. My other videos do not have this so rest assured I’m aware and will rectify the situation. Danielle
Hi, I'm 70 and after years on a keto diet I switched to NO Carb/NO Veggies diet and within 3 days my peripheral neuropathy disappeared. Plants caused it in my case!!!
If you are prone to absorbing too many oxalates from plants you could have pain in any part of your body, but mostly joints. Some plants have huge amounts of oxalates. Examples: sweet potatoes, spinach, nuts, chocolate, bran, soy, some berries, black pepper, cinnamon, curcumin, other spices. I found that out the hard way after drinking a cup of carrot juice a day for a month. Celery and beetroot are also high. Do not juice those.
It was most likely due to Oxalates in the plants you were eating. You should take low dose calcium citrate (250mg) to bind to the Oxalate dumping that will happen so you can minimize symptoms.
Have an ache or pain? Castor oil packs work great. Put Castor oil on the area. Next cover the area with a damp washcloth. Cover washcloth with food plastic wrap(to protect your heating pad). Last put heating pad on top. It might take a few applications, but you should get relief.
Very informative video thank you. I too would ask that you don’t play music as it distracts from what you’re saying. I’m going to order some and will give feedback with my success or failure.
I didn't find it distracting or annoying.. It wasn't even loud... It's her business.. I'm sure you wouldn't want people telling YOU how to run your business... Show the same respect.
@@happy_times01agree 💯💯💯. When I first the comment I almost didn’t watch the video. With my short attention span I didn’t think I was going to learn anything. Wrong! With her soft tone voice, switching images and the soft music I finished the video and learned a lot! Thanks for the video! ❤❤❤
I have type 2 and neuropathy. I rubbed Vicks vapor rub on my feet , for four nights and my piercing pain stopped. So Everytime it comes back I put it on my feet, and it works for me !!! 💕💞😍
Excellent video love! ❤ 😊 The music is fine! The graphics are extremely cool. Your research and information are awesome! The best part is you - articulate and funny!
You need to watch Barbara O'Neil she teaches to put cayenne pepper and how to apply a pack over night with socks and she also says it has a nice warning effects it works ! use a plastic bag over pack before you put your socks on ! 👍❤️
very similar to Dr Sebi Herbalist Tester Healer Knowledgeable Her use experience with Castor Oil and Other Herbs is Amazing Thankfully she Keeps Sharing information
Plastics are carcinogens. Not using any plastics I can avoid in life. The castor oil so quickly absorbs I do not see any benefit to putting plastic over it! Nope. I like her though. And I have asked my husband to get me some of those cayenne peppers to make a warming oil. I use cayenne pepper, ground and tumeric and a few other things in my ACV with the mother for the many health benefits. I put it in my water and drink that most of the time. Braggs is not the same as it was...so be sure to get a brand that meets the highest standards. Braggs sold out and not as good now...shameful.
@@lorenrobertson8039 your correct my friend , asswipe gates bought braggs , gotta be connecting all dots now ppl. He's not the only one buying out our fav suppliers😡 so Shop wise, eat Smart while we can, be thankful and give thanks to Our God always...& not that fool on the dollar bill either!! Good luck in the longhaul my friend - they aint done with us yet sad to say. 😞😠🤬🙏✌
Thank you- very informative! I specially liked that you linked the old medical journal piece, which I will study shortly, as a lot of those old-time allopaths actually knew something about practicing medicine.
I am using it on a large limpoma, on my back. Doctor said my only option was surgery. My limpoma has flattened and shrunk 50 %, after about 10 castor oil packs at night. I am continuing to use it every other night. I use heat with it.
Lol, you're delightful talking about your hair and hating summer. I just had back surgery again. I'm feeling quite sorry for myself today and needed someone who could make me laugh! So thank you!😁
Hi Shebrewsherri! That is so sweet of you to say and I'm very happy I gave you a chuckle. You're delightful for commenting and saying so and I wish you a speedy recovery. You've got this ❤❤ Danielle
I’m almost 68 and I have had diabetes (type 2) for 25 years and I have severe neuropathy. I went to a pain clinic and after a time they had me on an almost lethal dose of fentanyl and oxycodone. I had tried gabapentin and just about everything else and I was miserable. I finally went to the VA cause I’m a veteran and they got me off the rollercoaster of the drugs. A little Japanese woman doctor prescribed nortriptylene and a 10 mg pill of methadone. The dose was so small I didn’t even know I was taking it. I couldn’t believe it I didn’t even think about it anymore it was amazing. Now about 5 years on I get some tinges of pain but that’s probably because my body has acclimated to the medication. If you want to know more drop me a line here.
Acetyl L Carnitine really helps. It takes a few weeks of regular use but gets better and with time. I take 1,000 mgs twice a day. Some practitioners recommend combining it with Alpha Lipoic Acid. I do not do that at present. Just also note, high carb or a sugary meal will still cause the neuropathy to flare. As a topical the Lidocaine gel helps with the burning some.
my oncologist recommended Carnitine, in large quantities, before I started a chemo that my dr stated would 100% cause me neuropathy. I was his first patient to try it and I have no neuropathy. I am so grateful for his recommendation.
My mom has neuropathy caused by chemo treating pancreatic cancer, and other than Gabapentin she’s prescribed, we haven’t known how to help reduce the symptoms that cause her so much pain from the swelling. Thank you so much for this, and the other comments!
I have they same condition as your mother. I switched to Duloxetine, Brand name: Cymbalta. On bad nights I use a sprinkle editable of 5mg CBD + 0.25mg THC in 6oz of water. I always wear socks and tight shoes or crocks during the day. When I nap, I wrap my feet in a small blanket. I wish her luck on finding relief.
@@JamesLaursen oh wow, thank u so much! I had actually gotten her some CBD balm that she does find very helpful, and the medications I’ll definitely mention to her and the doc next appt. Really appreciate the advice, this is so overwhelming for me being the only child/caregiver, but learning as I go and one day will pay it forward just like u. 💗
Thank you for sharing your mother's & your story ❤ Do you want to share which CBD balm she likes? I'd like to try some for a good friend's similar challenges. @@JenX-TV
@@JenX-TVthe less pharma drugs the better. Dr's love writing prescriptions that treat not cure. I would try natural treatments, try the castor oil too.
@@tamifromvirginia4046 unfortunately that’s basically all big pharma does is treat the symptoms, not actually “cure” anything. Way more money in the former, and we are nothing but lab mice to billionaires.
I've been putting it directly into my eyes for over 7 years. It helps with dry eyes, cataract prevention. There are other videos regarding using it in your eyes. I am very grateful that I found a video saying to put a few drops in your belly button to help you sleep better. It really works! I keep a small dropper bottle by my bed and use it just after I get in bed and sometimes use it again if I can't fall asleep after waking up during the night.
So, I'm about to spend $400 on veyr fancy glasses but found this today. Did you find it fixed your vision? Did a spot test and my eyes have zero reaction to it in terms of irritation - honestly it's the only thing I've put in my eye area in maybe 15yrs that hasn't bothered them. Really appreciate you sharing this!
@@messyhomestead7320I want to try it in my eyes but I’m scared. I want it to cure the beginnings of cataracts but I’ve noticed a few times when I rub it over my eyelids and a tiny bit gets into my eye that it stings. This is what me scared to drop it into the eye directly. There are conflicting things said about castor oil as eye treatment on you tube and I don’t know what to believe. There is an optometrist that says not to, so I’m scared.
@messyhomestead7320 ,howdy from Texas. If you are looking to improve your eyes, castor oil will definitely help, but you might also want to adapt a carnivore way of eating for 30-90 days. That's what really, Really, REALLY helps. Check out Dr Ken Berry and Dr Chaffee on TH-cam. God Bless, I hope this helps 🙏

Hi 777cieloazul! Thank you for taking the time to comment and provide such awesome support. I truly appreciate this so much. I'm normally pretty good at "not responding" to those who are critical but every now and then I clearly fail at it. I try to use all feedback in a positive light and improve my videos from them so ultimately it helps in the long run. I hope you're well and love and peace to you as well ❤❤ D
I have had peripheral neuropathy for 30 years and had taken prescribed meds to combat it, until I realized how bad they were for me. I started taking 600 mgs Alpha-Lepoic Acid (ALA) in the morning at and have had wonderful results. With that being said, I had to have tibial vascular bypass surgery and the swelling is unbearable. I've been a little "obsessed" with Castor Oil and decided to apply it at night because the ALA didn't seem to working as well post surgery and removal of the 87 staples in my leg. The only thing that happened was that I have a regular bowel movements in the morning and the swelling is greatly decreased allowing for a more comfortable sleep and quiets the tingling of my neuropathy. I have since added Frankincense and that has made all the difference! ALA in the morning, Castor Oil as a carrier oil for the Frankincense. I recommend it greatly 😉. Oh, I don't warm the Castor Oil and it works just fine!
Thank you Danielle! This is great info! I really appreciate you taking the time to put a great video together and taking the time to research and share your results! Look forward to watching more of your videos! PS- I barely noticed the music, so i don't know why others are complaining??? It wasnt too loud, annoying or a bad choice of music... Its your channel, dont let others try to tell you how to run your business. In sure they wouldnt like it if someone was telling them how to run theirs? I thought the way you did your video was perfectly entertaining and informative! Love and light to you! 💛🤗✨️🙌🫶😇

I have used castor oil to eliminate chronic poison ivy itch on my arm. Really worked fast. Now I use it daily and no more poison ivy. Wow, I love this stuff. Thank you for a great video.
That makes sense. the oil draws out the urushiol from the skin. I discovered it 50 years ago in high school when none of the standard remedies did a thing.
I didn't realize it draws it out. The past few weeks I have had a terrible infection and rash on my arm and now that it's finally going away I've been treating it with castor oil. I should've done that from the start.
@@annwithaplan9766 there is simple chemistry involved. It takes something oily to dissolve another thing that is oily. Urushiol, the irritant in poison ivy is very much an oil, but it also seems to travel deep into our skin. That is why soaps do not work so well. Any oil would do. One could use motor oil in a pinch. The idea is to make a compress and attach it to the affected area so that the oil has time to mingle into the skin and combine with the urushiol and basically extract it back out. It takes several applications. I discovered this long ago in high school but I used isopropyl alcohol, which did the job in a few days leaving a dry rash that healed in a few days with no irritation. I think the alcohol extract all of my skin oils taking the urushiol with them. Urushiol must have particular bonding characteristics to be so tenacious in our skin.
I have neuropathy in my feet, mainly the left foot. During Covid my doctors nurse tried to talk me into getting the vaccine. I turned it down but did get the pneumonia vaccine. Within a couple of days I was sick like flu & legs weak. Then the neuropathy started & has not left. I have been tested for Covid & results are that I have not had it. I am going to try this castor oil mixed with my magnesium oil. Praying it works.
Thanks for the info. I did not notice the music until I saw the complaints in the comments. People are funny to complain about something like that after all your work and what it actually takes to create such content. Some are clueless.
I came across castor oil on the internet by chance, and have since been using it as an anti-perspirant under my arms.. I testify that it works.. Also, I apply a bit on the eye lids and the sleep has been awesome ever since.. Thanks for a wonderful and down-to-earth presentation.. (from Johannesburg).
Hi, I’m 68 and been on a Carnivore diet for about 6 years. I’m a full time firefighter paramedic working 24/48’s and I feel better than when I was 40. Plants and carbs are toxic. You should look into the Carnivore or Ketogenic lifestyle.
I have been suffering for years from a tingling neuropathy that neurologists have not been able to find a cause for. I’ve tried a number of their medicines (too many side effects) and other more natural things to no avail. I also suffer from insomnia. This sounds like something I should try. I appreciate your candor on the side effects.
I have a 4 part treatment for even the most severe neuropathy or pain 1) alpha lipoic acid 600 mg twice a day 2) high potency B - complex 1 daily 3) cod liver oil (Flavored) 1 TBS DAILY 4) magnesium oil 6 sprays, 4x/d You should start to see results in 30 days and continue to see improvement for 6-12 months if 80- 100%.
Hi, has this protocol worked for you personally or are you a natural doctor who prescribes it? I'd like to know more info about it/you before recommending the protocol to a friend with chronic genetic PN. Thank you!
I use it daily all over been doing it for 30 plus days with no issues only benefits. Have not tried in the eyes as I worry about putting stuff in my eyes.
@karen-wp4lc Amazon just has spray on magnesium oil. I didnt bother looking to see what type. I take mag citrate powder and a mag threonate capsule before bed. I was using the spray on oil on my legs to lesson the leg cramps. Now I'll just spray it on my feet every night to see if there's a difference. I have castor oil but not the organic kind she has.
I have dry eyes and the pain can be horrid. I have been putting a drop or two of castor oil on my eyes and it totally helps with dry eyes. I keep a little dropper bottle by my bed just incase I need a few more drops. It also has helped with any kind of pain. Such a good oil.
I also sleep like a baby when I use castor oil. I use foot packs and that helps me with my neuropathy. I also feel very relaxed whenever I use castor oil. I also use it with my iodine on my neck over my thyroid for my hypothyroid. Also on my outer eyebrows, the hair is finally growing back.
Around 12:30, what word did you say when you said, “I didn’t concern myself with applying --- afterwards.” I couldn’t understand what you said even after playing that part of the video again. New viewer and will subscribe. Rarely do I see a utuber replying to so many people, even to the “complainers”. I have neuropathy so will give this a try. Thank you!!!
I've been on Lyrica, muscle relaxant & physiotherapy for neuropathy due to OPLL. I tried applying castor oil before bed to the affected areas after watching Barbara O'Neill. After 1 month, the neck and shoulder stiffness and pain seemed to be relieved when I wake up in the morning. I used to wake up a painfully stiff neck & shoulder every morning and had to do the prescribed exercises before starting my day. Slept better too. Not touched my Lyrica or muscle relaxant tablet for a month. Will continue with castor oil. Hope my condition will continue to improve. Seems to work on eye floaters too, applied to eyelids before bed. Tq for an honest sharing of your findings 😻
Thanks Means much more to me when knowledgeable person uses themselves,not as a control group,but as an active participant.Strength and laughter to you always
My parents gave me castor oil every day in the 50's, use to look for a place to hide, don't think it ever did anything for me. I developed diabetes then DPN and pretty bad..This actually helped quite a bit! Gabapentin had too many side effects.. thanks...
The Edgar Cayce literature explains the correct way to use castor oil packs. I believe that he is the one who first proposed the use of them and then over time,the knowledge became more mainstream.Another old castor oil trick is to annoint your entire body in it and sleep nude,on the day before you wash your sheets.Great for the skin! Thank you for posting this helpful video!❤
You must make sure that your sheets are 100% organic cotton (GOT certified). Castor oil pulls toxins from material and other points of contact. You do not want to absorb it. And yes, it does stain clothing etc. But be more worried about the toxicity. Same with the packs. Get a good quality material to use!
A friend of mine followed Edgar Cayce's teachings and she shared the castor oil pack info with me. I've been using the packs since about 1992. Works for me.
I tried castor oil compresses for nonalcolholic fatty liver and overdid it by leaving it overnight (!) , I could barely walk- but I expelled first a bunch of very light colored almost grey stool (steatorrhea or fatty poop almost like fois gras) and then expelled a bunch of tapeworm segments. It killed the tapeworms.
Danielle, i cannot thank you enough for your discussion on neuropathy. I, too, am a sufferer of neuropathy. The cause is unknown. I may have a bit stronger case than yours. The level of pain has been growing over the last year, and i am getting by with my doses of tramadol. No one stands in the way of me and my pain killer, unfortunately. I have tried anything that i think might help. I am over-the-counter poor, dropping at least $69.00 two or more times a week without much success. I definitely will try your possible solution and pray for the best. As an aside, your humor is spot-on. It relieves some of the tension. I enjoyed watching you so much. i almost forgot WHY i was watching. I have joined your fan club and hope to hear anything new you come up with. ❤❤🎉🎉 Thanks again. And good luck with your neuropathy.
Thank you so much for this valuable information along with the report of Castor oil use for facial neuralgia pain! I really appreciate this. I have subscribed to your channel and given a big like support! 💕💯
Great video. I am a huge castor oil fan for the past 3 months. I've only been using it for my face & declotte to rid dark spots and improve skin texture. It works fantastic. Your video has convinced me to start putting it everywhere else. I've had Lyme's disease for 40+ yr & it flares/presents itself on a painful regular basis. Time to fix this. I too was a little distracted by the music inserts and graphics, however, halfway through I felt like your humor & my humor were closely related & I dug it. Well done Nurse Danielle.
I have blisters on my cornea in my left eye. I’ve had to wear a contact lens over that eye for six months because of the blisters. They gave me antibiotics to use 3 to 4 times a day to put in my eye, which didn’t help. I started using castor oil on the outside of my eyelid and I put two drops of castor oil inside of my eye and within three weeks, it had gotten better. But the doctors wouldn’t tell me that it was better. So I went to my glaucoma doctor and ask her if she would take the contact lens out of my eye. So she did and the blisters are gone on my cornea. Which is very, very, very painful. it just gets a little sensitive every once in a while, but I always put castor oil in my eye a couple times a day and just lather it on at night when I go to bed because the surgery that they want to do is take a flap from the bottom of my eyelid and pull it up over my Iris, pupil and everything and you look like a zombie. And I didn’t want that surgery. I was so sad. But I am so thankful to God in the universe for showing me castor oil. I’ve used it further things like my fatty liver, which improved from using the castor oil. And I also had gallstones and it cleared up my gallbladder. I don’t know what these caster beans are, but I am so thankful. I hope this helps someone, they also say that castor oil would help with your cataracts that it would dissolve your cataracts. I wish I would’ve known that a long time ago I’m 68 years old.❤
The sensation in my feet is gone from chemo. I’ve been using Castor Oil for years for everything else…duh, me! You said your glucose is crazy, but you’re doing a great job keeping weight off. 🕊️
I have a large cyst on my left wrist. I have been applying a Castor oil soaked gauze, then rap in plastic rap, then cover with an Ace bandage every night for going on 16 days now. I'm beginning to see the cyst getting smaller. This treatment sure bets surgery. I also found it has a good effect on the bathroom duties. 😊 🇺🇸
Thanks for this neuropathy video - super helpful. I see castor used all the time for Lyme but never in my SFN communities. Totally agree that lots of complicated methods are used. I can say that the heating of it is about JUST the application amount and JUST to open pores to increase velocity of its ability to penetrate into the skin. All that said, I have had no trouble at all just using it straight on the skin, and I'm never looking to make a hard medical life even harder, so I'm with you there. I also agree we have to be intuitive about the temp. we like - personally, even though all my conditions would point to heat therapy, I ONLY do well with ice, and I use it allll the time. Questions: Could you share whether you had any initial herx reactions or not? I am working through some unexpected herx from something else so it is on the brain. I am hypothesizing that since castor has sooo much antioxidant to it, perhaps it supports the body as it detoxes, so that may smooth that landing a lot, but since my body is weak I can go into toxic shock pretty fast. Thanks so much! Very glad to find your channel.

I saw castor oil in a store I frequent. I heard of it, wondered what it was for. Now I know. I've peripherial neuropathy, and have been having borderline high diabetic numbers, but not high enough to be considered diabetic, which runs in my family. I have been taking the B vitamins, and a blood flow supplement (Juvenon Blood Flow 7) for almost a year. I can now wear shoes all day, every day. I will give Castor oil a try.
Thank you sooooo much for this video! I and all of my 4 siblings have been using castor oil on our skin with no issues. I got my wife to use castor oil daily on her skin and she loved it. But I also have her taking multiple vitamins and minerals too. She has a sensitive gut with irritable bowel issues. She has been having major laxative like issues so I had her quit taking all supplements. No help. Finally saw your vid so I told her to lay off the castor oil. Immediate relief! Her life is so much better now. Thank you again!!!
Hi Steve! Thank you so much for your great comment and for sharing this!! I'm so happy your wife benefitted. I have to say I can't really believe how effective it's been for me. I was a hard skeptic when I first started using it but I'm completely converted now. I'm like that crazy aunt who tells you to put castor oil on everything lol. Happy you found the channel! Danielle
I agree with the music topic. Please leave it out. For some people (like me) it is very irritating, I can not explain why. I appreciate all the info on castor oil. I will try it again, consistently.
I am so glad your video came up on my screen. You have done a great job doing your research as a licensed nurse! I have been hospitalized because of this & it has been a very painful experience for about 2 years now. I am taking prescribed meds, that help, oxycodone is the one that really helps the pain, but I have always preferred to use natural remedies if possible. I still am unable to walk without holding on to something, but I will persevere daily until I do. My wife, doctors & wonderful nurses 👍 have been very helpful & a Blessing. I am 72 with a severe case of GBS, but I will win this battle soon. 😊 Thank you, I will purchase this item today. God Bless you all...
Hi Bermudaguy! Thanks for commenting and sharing your experience! I truly hope it helps for you as it did for me. Sending positive thoughts and support your way! Danielle
How interesting that your video popped up, as I bought a bottle of organic, unrefined, cold-pressed, no additive, 92+% Ricinoleic Acid Castor Oil about 5 months ago and have never opened it. I don't even recall why I bought it...I must've watch someone's YT video on something...lol Anyway, I don't have diabetes nor any neuropathy but I am 79 yrs old and decided to give it a go on my feet and massage up the calves to see if it will get rid of muscles tightness/slight soreness just above the arch of my right foot; and a very, very slight tightness in the left foot. After watching your wonderful video, I'm convinced it cannot hurt. I did subscribe and will check back in with any positive results. Thank you for the education.
I use to do foot massages years ago to help most of the problems you were talking about and they were suggesting using caster oil because it is thicker and helps protect the skin especially it you are pushing hard and they have dry skin. I never used it for anything but a year or so my brother was talking about an I ordered some more he’s been using it for dry eyes and on cuts and bruises with very good results over the last year. Like I said the foot massages work great and healing properties are going to just make it even better
Ok, I have a lot of trouble with my calves, due to neuropathy. I am type 2 diabetic. I ordered the castor oil and tried last night. It was so much better. The night before the pain woke me up. I will keep at it. So glad I found your TH-cam video :)
Hi Craftsgalore! I'm so glad you tried it and it seems to be helping! That's exactly my experience-overnight I had improvement. I thought I was crazy initially but it just continued to improve. I'm not sure if you just watched the castor oil video but also wanted to make you aware that there are several other videos on Lucid Med relating to neuropathy, chronic disease, meds and natural remedies used to treat them etc that you might find helpful.

I have discovered castor oil in the last year-and have used it for a variety of things. As a kid who suffered with bladder issues I was given castor oil before kidney xrays along with enemas-that was what I associated castor oil with. I will try it on my hands now which are giving me numbness and pain.
I find your honesty and very natural humor delightful!, I too have found a nice side effect of better sleep very helpful. I also was found that some foot calluses disappeared within one week.
Hi John! Thanks for commenting and the positive feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. The improved sleep is amazing. Looking into more in depth explanation of why this occurs for tonight's LIVE stream (8PM EST) hope you can join me. Danielle Danielle
Excellent video in every way: very informative, clever cinematography, health benefit potential, application methods, disclaimers, presentation, touch of humor.... thank you for the effort you put into this video. The light background music was appropriate. BTW I have some peripheral neuropathy especially in my feet. I will be giving this a try!
Hi Wakeup! Thank you so much for taking the time to comment and your positivity. It means a great deal to me. I've seen so many write that they're giving the castor oil a try so I can't wait to hear updates. Hope to see you Sunday in the livestream. I'll be answering questions and going over my findings since the video. Danielle
I just have numbness and it seems to be moving up from the feet onto my legs now, I am type 2 D, on carnivore diet on Metformin, no insulin. A1C 6.9 so under some control now. Just ordered it.
Try the supplement Benfotiamine (lab version of B1; thiamine). I learned about it from Dr. Berg. The stuff is awesome but you have to take it every day or the neuropathy will return. It has been scientifically studied to aid with diabetic neuropathy. I've been using it for the past 2 years with great success.
@@sobeit1927 my father is vegetarian and definitely not eating meat is helping him a lot, he is too diabetic. He isnt taking statin and other meds diabetic need,i think he is on a low dose of metfornin but he can even stop it coz his sugar level is usually very good.
You might also try a magnesium citrate capsule each morning. With my pronounced neuropathy the capsule eliminated the pain and tingling. The numbness is still there but has been slowly getting less and less with introduction of a keto diet
@@joannew6697 i have used the walmart nature made brand 250 mg taking one every morning though i have also used the spring valley 100mg version with the same effect.
Thank you so much for the work you are doing and for sharing your personal experience with peripheral neuropathy. My wife has been struggling with neuropathy in her feet for several years. Most visits with her podiatrist end with nothing to speak of. You have given me hope. I am ordering the castor oil and I know that she will be more than happy to give it a shot. Thank you again for sharing and I promise to update when we have results.
The most important point that you missed...if you are massaging it into your legs and feet before bed, how do you prevent getting the oil all over your sheets. I haven't figured that out and would like to know how you do it. How long do you have to wait for it to not be greasy? Why does everyone forget about the practical aspects of the use? Keep a light sock to put on it or you won't be able to walk on your floor or carpet. Or have a rubber sandal you can slip on after applying. Other suggestions...what about when do you use red light....certainly not after application. Please let me know more details about the actual application, including not getting it all over your bed. I might be up now for hours waiting for it to absorb. It is too hot for PJ bottoms and I am now stuck with a greasy leg.
Hi GK! Thanks so much for your comment and question. I realized I missed talking about the bed sheets after I uploaded so I'm glad you've asked this question. I put the oil on about an hour before bed and I'd estimate it takes about 30 minutes until it's pretty well absorbed. I haven't had an issue with it transferring to my sheets as long as I give it a good 30 min to an hour prior to hopping in to bed. I would also maybe suggest if your sheets are super nice and expensive (mine are not lol) to put a clean towel down to absorb any excess. Other than that-I try to keep this as simple as possible otherwise-I won't do it. I know myself and if it's complicated game over. D
I wrap my whole foot about 3 times with bandages after rubbing in castor oil, wear same thongs each night after applying, thongs do still get sticky, then wear socks to bed. Still, after few weeks the oil gradually soaks right through to socks onto sheets. I occasionally soak sheets to whiten but be prepared to throw socks away and start again.
I would put it on an hour or more before bed and put on my sweats so I didn't get the oil on anything. I didn't leave a thick sheet of oil on my skin. I rubbed it in pretty good. When I went to bed and took off my sweats, it didn't get on my sheets. I never saw any on my sweats either, but if it was, it was on the inside and didn't soak through. If any oil was on them, it came out in the washer.
I follow a lady named Barbara O'Neil who's a former nurse and naturopath and she has all natural remedies for all kinds of things. She explains a concoction that cured my friend's full-blown neuropathy with fully numb feet as he was going through chemotherapy fighting cancer last summer. He tried the concoction and within one day his foot numbness went away after he had been suffering with it for months. It's very simple, you take a piece of Saran Wrap and put a paper towel on top of it. Fold the paper towel in half and pour castor oil on it. Then you completely cover it with Cayenne Pepper and place your foot on it. Wrap your foot up in the Saran Wrap and then put a sock over it and sleep with them that way overnight and it solved his foot numbness within one day! Try it! It's fully natural and very inexpensive just make sure your castor oil is organic cold-pressed hexane-free and that it comes in a dark amber glass bottle. The one I use is Queen of the Thrones because it hits all the marks but there are others on the market. Good luck to you and God bless you.
May God bless you mightly for sharing it!

Want a cure for neuropathy - quit eating sugary foods for 30 - 60 days and see what happens - it worked for me and it could work for you. I cut out all pies, ice cream, doughnuts, Little Debbies etc... for around 60 days and my neuropathy pains went away by 90%. Plus I lost 8 pounds and I feel better and I sleep better and it didn't cost me a dime - it actually saved me money - and the pains are almost totally gone. Thank God.
The carnivore diet works really good as well but if you have had neuropathy for a long time it may not completely reverse.
@@corinnespanelewski4732 Agreed as the sugar in the carnivore diet is eliminated from human consumption
Sugar is inflammatory so this makes sense.

I had quite serious neuropathy quite awhile ago, and found Benfotamine (since it has been quite a long while since I used it I may have misspelled Benfotamine).the point is it quickly and completely cleared up the neuropathy!
I'm 74. Type 2 diabetic. I saw your video one week ago, and immediatly ordered a bottle of the cold pressed castor oil. The stuff showed up on Monday, and that night my wife rubbed it on my legs. (at about 7 pm.) I have those cloth support sleeves and put them on after we greased me down. 5 hours later she came back to my room and took the sleeves off. Tuesday am I had at least a 50% reduction in neuropathy pain, and needles and pins. I've been a type 2 diabetic for 30 years . I was astonished at the relief. It continues yet! And as an extra bonus? I've had ED for 20 Years. This morning I didn't piss on my feet!!!

It's actually Plantar wart. Plantar is the word for the sole of the foot.
After spending thousands of dollars on gabapentin, lyrica, lidocaine, among other meds that don’t work I was will to spend $6.99 at CVS and give it a try. If it didn’t work I could always use it a a lubricant for my model trains.
Results after first try today. All I can say is WOW. IT reduced the pain, tingling, burning in my toes and from part of my feet. This $6.99 bottle should last me for a year. But I’ll report back with my long term results in 6 months.

You do not have to heat the entire bottle because it will ruin the oil when you repeatedly do it instead put a small amount of oil into a small glass and place it in a warm water container. Please heat only the amount of oil you need it on that day

I am on my way to becoming a certified aromatherapist and will tell you and anyone else who reads this: DO NOT HEAT YOUR BOTTLE OF CASTOR OIL!! If you would like to warm the portion you are about to use, I wouldn’t recommend it but may be a personal preference decision. When you heat oils you break the molecules down and the oil will become rancid much more quickly than would be the case if you cared for it properly. Storing oils in a cool dark place is always best and will prolong the therapeutic effect because the oil will last longer. Hope that helps😉

Keeping my fingers crossed, I ll let you know what happens tho , it will interesting to see if this works longer term, God I hope so, I can get used to this relief,

Three meds my doctor prescribed for me at the same time caused my neuropathy…lisinopril, amlodipine and hydrochloride,and also prescribed a cholesterol med Lipitor when my labs proved my cholesterol was always in normal range. I stopped taking the first three meds and in a couple of months neuropathy was 95% eliminated. Never took the Lipitor. I though my doctor had my back 😢 I now use homeopathic products, and my doctor is surprised that they are working!!! Do your research!!!
Did you stop taking those medication‘s overnight or did you wean yourself off?
What did they give u those meds for ? High cholesterol? Or neuropathy or for other conditions? I’m goin to hav to check my meds n see if I take any of those. My nerve dr jus prescribed me an anti depression pill that’s been around awhile that help to quite the nerves..I haven’t started it. Just got it few days ago.

@@stephaniemamatree5973 That's a good idea. Ask your primary physician to reevaluate ALL your pharmaceuticals to see if there are any you can reduce or eliminate. I hope that castor oil works for you as well as it has for me.
Hexane free Caster oil is excellent lubricant for dry skin, psoriasis, eczema and can be safely use as an eye drop to relieve dry eyes, improve cataracts. I use it all over my body for close to a year now. My body just love this natural oil that grows in my garden and were being used by my great grandmom and the generations before and after her. See Barbara O'Neill's advice on caster oil uses. It has been tried and used and found to be better than anything made in a lab. For cold feet(poor circulation) , put some caster oil on a piece of cloth sprinkle some cayenne pepper on it, apply it to your feet and put a plastic bag on, then put your feet in socks. You wil wake up few hours after that with warm feet and will not have any circulation troubles after doing that❤.
I've had four prostate surgeries. I bought a blue glass bottle of castor oil, organic and hexane free. I take 1 table spoon before i go to bed. Im on day 7 and I felt the difference. Its a miracle cure for sure.
To be honest, I was so interested in the subject matter I didn't even notice the music. I wouldn't worry about it. Just subscribed to your channel.
Hi Lon! Thank you so much for commenting and welcome! I'm happy to have you as part of the community.

I believe it was Edgar Cayce who originally suggested the use of Castor oil packs about 90 years ago.
Yes, Edgar Cayce promoted Castor Oil & it's effects!
I still have my quart bottle of castor oil, (with a little left in the bottom!), that I purchased back in 1989 after I read about it in one of the books about Edgar Cayce.
Not surprising!!!
Yes. He also liked Welch's Grape Juice. It had to be Welch's. I forget for what aliment(s)
Yes. I learned so much from his readings!!🙏😊
It actually dissolves bone spurs, and stops the pain within 2 days. It can take up to 3 months for the spur to be gone, but the pain won't be there. Same with Plantar Fasciatis, helps really quickly to stop the pain, and within 4-6 weeks to be gone. Great for athritis and rheumatism, rub into affected joints. It absorbs best straight after shower/bath. If it doesn't say Hexane free, it's not. Must be Organic, Hexane free, Cold pressed, in a dark, glass bottle. To anyone doubting, just try it. I bottle is cheaper than a prescription, and has many uses. Heals wounds incredibly well, leaving skin unscarred. Truly grows hair, mix with a carrier oil, like Olive, Jojoba, Argan. Rub into scalp, put a satin bonnet/scarf/shower cap on, leave overnight. Amazing stuff. Gets rid of corns, verruccas, warts. Beware of knock offs, get a reputable brand. I'm in England, but a good one in America is Heritage. Queen of Thrones used to be cold pressed, not anymore, it's expeller pressed.
Very good mam💐
I have severe stenosis. Do you think it could help me? 👀
@@DeKKH Yes. Massage the effected area at least once a day. If you are in the US, Heritage is a good brand. You should start noticing an improvement within days, don't stop. Carry on using it even when the pain is gone. Let me know how you getting on.
Thank you for your detailed info❤
@@triniandahalf Your welcome.
What a commitment to other people's well-being. ❤
I used this because I took a new medication that constipated me. If fixed that problem. After several weeks I realized my chronic back pain was gone and the pain in my hips and knees was absent. It’s good stuff and I’m recommending to all my friends….and I am sleeping really good! Thank you
Hi Silva! Thanks for commenting and sharing your experience! Love that you're feeling better ❤❤

How do you use it? Thanks
@@marialissetteneiracuadra8348 Hi Maria! I go through how I apply it in the video at about 12:02. Not sure if you watched the whole thing but I discuss my findings and application roughly midway through.
Danielle
@Silva007ish Hi , did you ingested or applied on the skin ? Thanks
@@marialissetteneiracuadra8348I’m pretty sure she ingested. Olive oil will do the same if you are constipated. Just one tsp or tbsp of olive oil in the morning on an empty stomach will help. I would squirt little lemon juice over it for taste.
Thank you for this video. I have just recently started using this! one drop on Each Eyelid . I
Have Sjogrins syndrome. Confirmed by blood work through a rheumatologist and the Dry eye issues that plague me with blufferitus. When I first applied Castor oil to my eyelid, I rubbed it into the eyelashes and all around my eyebrows.. What I found interesting was that my vision improved in the eye that I had an aneurysm bleed. I have permanent scarring on the retna. My vision in both eyes cleared up right away in minuits, and I could focus more clearly. Must have been the anti inflammatory effect. It gives me peace becausee I fall a lot due to another inflammation issue in my lymph system of my neck. This has helped because I don't have the blurry vision when I'm using the Castor oil. I have now moved to twice a day morning and evening. One drop each eye lid. I will be trying this on my feet next.
Hi there! Thank you so much for commenting and sharing your experience with castor oil. I love when viewers write about what they found with a topic I've covered and I truly appreciate you taking the time to do so! Your vision clearing is fantastic and I did find research about this I'm nervous to try it myself because of my initial reaction when my face started itching. I may (like you) give it another go round.
Danielle
@lucidmed3343 The itching was the reason I used it on my eyelashes and it worked immediately And it lasts for several hours in the morning. I'm also diabetic and take small amounts of insulin. I figured if you can swallow this for constipation, it's safe enough for your skin . The glands that keep the oil in your eyelids for lubricating your eye, plug up as a side effect of Sjogrins, so that's why I decided to use it on my lids and I've noticed that my crows feet wrinkles are reducing..!! And the bottle of castor oil I purchased from the pharmacy for constipation issues and decided to use it for my eyelids.
Ps I am female 64...
@privilegednonyobusiness4977 from my understanding you want to avoid using castor oil with hexane for the eyes. The one I purchased "Jamaican Black Castor Oil" for external use only. Please research and be safe.
This is amazing information. This is my first time on this program, but I'm definitely going to be following your posts. I am excited about the neuropathy information and now this information from a Sjogrens Syndrome sufferer too. I've also been having problems with my eyes and I thank you for your information on a way to help with the itchiness and blurriness. I feel like I've won the lottery tonight with all this wonderful information. THANKS AGAIN!
Although I did hit the like button and subscribe to your channel, you most likely know that there are comments saying that the music is distracting. I am recovering from a concussion, so for me I can’t even finish listening to your video as I have heightened sensory issues. I also am a retired occupational therapist and I can tell you that individuals especially in their 20s and younger 30s are experiencing auditory sensory issues as well. So with that said, perhaps research music that may not irritate the central nervous system. Thank you for this video and all the information.
Use closed captioning and put on mute if it bothersome
@@sweetpeanmolly hi sweet pea, I appreciate your support even though the music was not agreeable. What happened is I switched editing software which did a really bad job of allowing me to control the audio ducking resulting in music and sound effects that were way too loud. I didn’t realize how bad they were until after upload. My other videos do not have this so rest assured I’m aware and will rectify the situation. Danielle

Hi, I'm 70 and after years on a keto diet I switched to NO Carb/NO Veggies diet and within 3 days my peripheral neuropathy disappeared. Plants caused it in my case!!!
I'm 75, I know what you mean
Which veggies? I know that the Gundry diet has some veggie restrictions.
If you are prone to absorbing too many oxalates from plants you could have pain in any part of your body, but mostly joints. Some plants have huge amounts of oxalates. Examples: sweet potatoes, spinach, nuts, chocolate, bran, soy, some berries, black pepper, cinnamon, curcumin, other spices. I found that out the hard way after drinking a cup of carrot juice a day for a month. Celery and beetroot are also high. Do not juice those.
It was most likely due to Oxalates in the plants you were eating. You should take low dose calcium citrate (250mg) to bind to the Oxalate dumping that will happen so you can minimize symptoms.
So what you eat ?
Have an ache or pain? Castor oil packs work great. Put Castor oil on the area. Next cover the area with a damp washcloth. Cover washcloth with food plastic wrap(to protect your heating pad). Last put heating pad on top. It might take a few applications, but you should get relief.
Thank you. Music not distracting to me. Too busy listening to your instructions. Thanks
Me, too. What music? Guess I'll have to watch the video again! 😅
Very informative video thank you. I too would ask that you don’t play music as it distracts from what you’re saying. I’m going to order some and will give feedback with my success or failure.

You need to watch Barbara O'Neil she teaches to put cayenne pepper and how to apply a pack over night with socks and she also says it has a nice warning effects it works ! use a plastic bag over pack before you put your socks on ! 👍❤️
very similar to Dr Sebi Herbalist Tester Healer Knowledgeable Her use experience with Castor Oil and Other Herbs is Amazing Thankfully she Keeps Sharing information
Barbara O’Neils book 📚 is also a wealth of information.👍🙏🏼
Only cayenne pepper without anything else ?
Plastics are carcinogens. Not using any plastics I can avoid in life. The castor oil so quickly absorbs I do not see any benefit to putting plastic over it! Nope. I like her though. And I have asked my husband to get me some of those cayenne peppers to make a warming oil. I use cayenne pepper, ground and tumeric and a few other things in my ACV with the mother for the many health benefits. I put it in my water and drink that most of the time. Braggs is not the same as it was...so be sure to get a brand that meets the highest standards. Braggs sold out and not as good now...shameful.
@@lorenrobertson8039 your correct my friend , asswipe gates bought braggs , gotta be connecting all dots now ppl.

I am using it on a large limpoma, on my back. Doctor said my only option was surgery. My limpoma has flattened and shrunk 50 %, after about 10 castor oil packs at night. I am continuing to use it every other night. I use heat with it.

Hope you feel better soon...
I’m almost 68 and I have had diabetes (type 2) for 25 years and I have severe neuropathy. I went to a pain clinic and after a time they had me on an almost lethal dose of fentanyl and oxycodone. I had tried gabapentin and just about everything else and I was miserable. I finally went to the VA cause I’m a veteran and they got me off the rollercoaster of the drugs. A little Japanese woman doctor prescribed nortriptylene and a 10 mg pill of methadone. The dose was so small I didn’t even know I was taking it. I couldn’t believe it I didn’t even think about it anymore it was amazing. Now about 5 years on I get some tinges of pain but that’s probably because my body has acclimated to the medication. If you want to know more drop me a line here.
Acetyl L Carnitine really helps. It takes a few weeks of regular use but gets better and with time. I take 1,000 mgs twice a day. Some practitioners recommend combining it with Alpha Lipoic Acid. I do not do that at present. Just also note, high carb or a sugary meal will still cause the neuropathy to flare.
As a topical the Lidocaine gel helps with the burning some.
I agree with this assessment
ALA is all Ive taken and the Lord has made me TREMENDOUSLY better through it, Amen !!!...Will Pray about adding Acetyl L Carnitine !!!
my oncologist recommended Carnitine, in large quantities, before I started a chemo that my dr stated would 100% cause me neuropathy. I was his first patient to try it and I have no neuropathy. I am so grateful for his recommendation.
Great video. I didn't notice the music until I read the comments! ❤
Me too!!
My mom has neuropathy caused by chemo treating pancreatic cancer, and other than Gabapentin she’s prescribed, we haven’t known how to help reduce the symptoms that cause her so much pain from the swelling.
Thank you so much for this, and the other comments!
I have they same condition as your mother. I switched to Duloxetine, Brand name: Cymbalta. On bad nights I use a sprinkle editable of 5mg CBD + 0.25mg THC in 6oz of water. I always wear socks and tight shoes or crocks during the day. When I nap, I wrap my feet in a small blanket. I wish her luck on finding relief.
@@JamesLaursen oh wow, thank u so much!
I had actually gotten her some CBD balm that she does find very helpful, and the medications I’ll definitely mention to her and the doc next appt.
Really appreciate the advice, this is so overwhelming for me being the only child/caregiver, but learning as I go and one day will pay it forward just like u. 💗
Thank you for sharing your mother's & your story ❤ Do you want to share which CBD balm she likes? I'd like to try some for a good friend's similar challenges. @@JenX-TV
@@JenX-TVthe less pharma drugs the better. Dr's love writing prescriptions that treat not cure. I would try natural treatments, try the castor oil too.
@@tamifromvirginia4046 unfortunately that’s basically all big pharma does is treat the symptoms, not actually “cure” anything. Way more money in the former, and we are nothing but lab mice to billionaires.
I've been putting it directly into my eyes for over 7 years. It helps with dry eyes, cataract prevention. There are other videos regarding using it in your eyes. I am very grateful that I found a video saying to put a few drops in your belly button to help you sleep better. It really works! I keep a small dropper bottle by my bed and use it just after I get in bed and sometimes use it again if I can't fall asleep after waking up during the night.
So, I'm about to spend $400 on veyr fancy glasses but found this today. Did you find it fixed your vision? Did a spot test and my eyes have zero reaction to it in terms of irritation - honestly it's the only thing I've put in my eye area in maybe 15yrs that hasn't bothered them. Really appreciate you sharing this!
@@messyhomestead7320I want to try it in my eyes but I’m scared. I want it to cure the beginnings of cataracts but I’ve noticed a few times when I rub it over my eyelids and a tiny bit gets into my eye that it stings. This is what me scared to drop it into the eye directly. There are conflicting things said about castor oil as eye treatment on you tube and I don’t know what to believe. There is an optometrist that says not to, so I’m scared.
@messyhomestead7320 ,howdy from Texas. If you are looking to improve your eyes, castor oil will definitely help, but you might also want to adapt a carnivore way of eating for 30-90 days. That's what really, Really, REALLY helps.
Check out Dr Ken Berry and Dr Chaffee on TH-cam.
God Bless, I hope this helps 🙏
I put in my bellybutton and got major diarrhea

I have had peripheral neuropathy for 30 years and had taken prescribed meds to combat it, until I realized how bad they were for me. I started taking 600 mgs Alpha-Lepoic Acid (ALA) in the morning at and have had wonderful results. With that being said, I had to have tibial vascular bypass surgery and the swelling is unbearable. I've been a little "obsessed" with Castor Oil and decided to apply it at night because the ALA didn't seem to working as well post surgery and removal of the 87 staples in my leg. The only thing that happened was that I have a regular bowel movements in the morning and the swelling is greatly decreased allowing for a more comfortable sleep and quiets the tingling of my neuropathy. I have since added Frankincense and that has made all the difference! ALA in the morning, Castor Oil as a carrier oil for the Frankincense. I recommend it greatly 😉. Oh, I don't warm the Castor Oil and it works just fine!
Thank you Danielle! This is great info! I really appreciate you taking the time to put a great video together and taking the time to research and share your results! Look forward to watching more of your videos! PS- I barely noticed the music, so i don't know why others are complaining??? It wasnt too loud, annoying or a bad choice of music... Its your channel, dont let others try to tell you how to run your business. In sure they wouldnt like it if someone was telling them how to run theirs?

I have used castor oil to eliminate chronic poison ivy itch on my arm. Really worked fast. Now I use it daily and no more poison ivy. Wow, I love this stuff. Thank you for a great video.
That makes sense. the oil draws out the urushiol from the skin. I discovered it 50 years ago in high school when none of the standard remedies did a thing.
I didn't realize it draws it out. The past few weeks I have had a terrible infection and rash on my arm and now that it's finally going away I've been treating it with castor oil. I should've done that from the start.
@@annwithaplan9766 there is simple chemistry involved. It takes something oily to dissolve another thing that is oily. Urushiol, the irritant in poison ivy is very much an oil, but it also seems to travel deep into our skin. That is why soaps do not work so well. Any oil would do. One could use motor oil in a pinch.
The idea is to make a compress and attach it to the affected area so that the oil has time to mingle into the skin and combine with the urushiol and basically extract it back out. It takes several applications. I discovered this long ago in high school but I used isopropyl alcohol, which did the job in a few days leaving a dry rash that healed in a few days with no irritation. I think the alcohol extract all of my skin oils taking the urushiol with them.
Urushiol must have particular bonding characteristics to be so tenacious in our skin.
I have neuropathy in my feet, mainly the left foot. During Covid my doctors nurse tried to talk me into getting the vaccine. I turned it down but did get the pneumonia vaccine. Within a couple of days I was sick like flu & legs weak. Then the neuropathy started & has not left. I have been tested for Covid & results are that I have not had it.
I am going to try this castor oil mixed with my magnesium oil. Praying it works.
My mom did the pneumonia shot and felt a warming around her heart, and they told her she can never have it again..
Also do castor oill packs on liver [under right rib cage] it will assist all organs ✨️
YOU CAN WARM UP IN YOUR HAND BEFORE PUTTING ON BODY!
Thanks for the info. I did not notice the music until I saw the complaints in the comments. People are funny to complain about something like that after all your work and what it actually takes to create such content. Some are clueless.
I came across castor oil on the internet by chance, and have since been using it as an anti-perspirant under my arms.. I testify that it works.. Also, I apply a bit on the eye lids and the sleep has been awesome ever since.. Thanks for a wonderful and down-to-earth presentation.. (from Johannesburg).
The program is very good , but the music is SO disturbing , that I will turn off the sound and just read what you are saying :)
Hi, I’m 68 and been on a Carnivore diet for about 6 years. I’m a full time firefighter paramedic working 24/48’s and I feel better than when I was 40. Plants and carbs are toxic.
You should look into the Carnivore or Ketogenic lifestyle.
It's true I agree
I have been suffering for years from a tingling neuropathy that neurologists have not been able to find a cause for. I’ve tried a number of their medicines (too many side effects) and other more natural things to no avail. I also suffer from insomnia. This sounds like something I should try. I appreciate your candor on the side effects.
I have a 4 part treatment for even the most severe neuropathy or pain
1) alpha lipoic acid 600 mg twice a day
2) high potency B - complex 1 daily
3) cod liver oil (Flavored) 1 TBS DAILY
4) magnesium oil 6 sprays, 4x/d
You should start to see results in 30 days and continue to see improvement for 6-12 months if 80- 100%.
What type of magnesium ? (Arent there several types?)
Hi, has this protocol worked for you personally or are you a natural doctor who prescribes it? I'd like to know more info about it/you before recommending the protocol to a friend with chronic genetic PN. Thank you!
I use it daily all over been doing it for 30 plus days with no issues only benefits. Have not tried in the eyes as I worry about putting stuff in my eyes.
@karen-wp4lc Amazon just has spray on magnesium oil. I didnt bother looking to see what type. I take mag citrate powder and a mag threonate capsule before bed. I was using the spray on oil on my legs to lesson the leg cramps. Now I'll just spray it on my feet every night to see if there's a difference. I have castor oil but not the organic kind she has.
I have dry eyes and the pain can be horrid. I have been putting a drop or two of castor oil on my eyes and it totally helps with dry eyes. I keep a little dropper bottle by my bed just incase I need a few more drops. It also has helped with any kind of pain. Such a good oil.
I also sleep like a baby when I use castor oil. I use foot packs and that helps me with my neuropathy. I also feel very relaxed whenever I use castor oil. I also use it with my iodine on my neck over my thyroid for my hypothyroid. Also on my outer eyebrows, the hair is finally growing back.
Around 12:30, what word did you say when you said, “I didn’t concern myself with applying --- afterwards.” I couldn’t understand what you said even after playing that part of the video again.

I've been on Lyrica, muscle relaxant & physiotherapy for neuropathy due to OPLL. I tried applying castor oil before bed to the affected areas after watching Barbara O'Neill. After 1 month, the neck and shoulder stiffness and pain seemed to be relieved when I wake up in the morning. I used to wake up a painfully stiff neck & shoulder every morning and had to do the prescribed exercises before starting my day. Slept better too. Not touched my Lyrica or muscle relaxant tablet for a month. Will continue with castor oil. Hope my condition will continue to improve. Seems to work on eye floaters too, applied to eyelids before bed. Tq for an honest sharing of your findings 😻

Wow you don't have to be so rude
Thanks Means much more to me when knowledgeable person uses themselves,not as a control group,but as an active participant.Strength and laughter to you always
My parents gave me castor oil every day in the 50's, use to look for a place to hide, don't think it ever did anything for me. I developed diabetes then DPN and pretty bad..This actually helped quite a bit! Gabapentin had too many side effects.. thanks...
I have been using castor oil (Queen of the Thrones) before bedtime for about 3 months. My skin has improved and my eyebrows are growing fuller.
The Edgar Cayce literature explains the correct way to use castor oil packs. I believe that he is the one who first proposed the use of them and then over time,the knowledge became more mainstream.Another old castor oil trick is to annoint your entire body in it and sleep nude,on the day before you wash your sheets.Great for the skin! Thank you for posting this helpful video!❤
It will stain sheets! And clothes
@@kentgulley5259 Castor oil washes out with bleach and extra soap.
You must make sure that your sheets are 100% organic cotton (GOT certified). Castor oil pulls toxins from material and other points of contact. You do not want to absorb it. And yes, it does stain clothing etc. But be more worried about the toxicity. Same with the packs. Get a good quality material to use!
A friend of mine followed Edgar Cayce's teachings and she shared the castor oil pack info with me. I've been using the packs since about 1992. Works for me.
Please be careful following anything to do with Edgar Cayce. He was into some very dangerous stuff. Please research him.
I tried castor oil compresses for nonalcolholic fatty liver and overdid it by leaving it overnight (!) , I could barely walk- but I expelled first a bunch of very light colored almost grey stool (steatorrhea or fatty poop almost like fois gras) and then expelled a bunch of tapeworm segments. It killed the tapeworms.
I almost gave up because of background noise, but the info is helpful. Will share the link. Thank you.
Danielle, i cannot thank you enough for your discussion on neuropathy. I, too, am a sufferer of neuropathy. The cause is unknown. I may have a bit stronger case than yours. The level of pain has been growing over the last year, and i am getting by with my doses of tramadol. No one stands in the way of me and my pain killer, unfortunately. I have tried anything that i think might help. I am over-the-counter poor, dropping at least $69.00 two or more times a week without much success. I definitely will try your possible solution and pray for the best.
As an aside, your humor is spot-on. It relieves some of the tension. I enjoyed watching you so much. i almost forgot WHY i was watching. I have joined your fan club and hope to hear anything new you come up with. ❤❤🎉🎉

Great video. I am a huge castor oil fan for the past 3 months. I've only been using it for my face & declotte to rid dark spots and improve skin texture. It works fantastic. Your video has convinced me to start putting it everywhere else. I've had Lyme's disease for 40+ yr & it flares/presents itself on a painful regular basis. Time to fix this. I too was a little distracted by the music inserts and graphics, however, halfway through I felt like your humor & my humor were closely related & I dug it. Well done Nurse Danielle.
I have blisters on my cornea in my left eye. I’ve had to wear a contact lens over that eye for six months because of the blisters. They gave me antibiotics to use 3 to 4 times a day to put in my eye, which didn’t help. I started using castor oil on the outside of my eyelid and I put two drops of castor oil inside of my eye and within three weeks, it had gotten better. But the doctors wouldn’t tell me that it was better. So I went to my glaucoma doctor and ask her if she would take the contact lens out of my eye. So she did and the blisters are gone on my cornea. Which is very, very, very painful. it just gets a little sensitive every once in a while, but I always put castor oil in my eye a couple times a day and just lather it on at night when I go to bed because the surgery that they want to do is take a flap from the bottom of my eyelid and pull it up over my Iris, pupil and everything and you look like a zombie. And I didn’t want that surgery. I was so sad. But I am so thankful to God in the universe for showing me castor oil. I’ve used it further things like my fatty liver, which improved from using the castor oil. And I also had gallstones and it cleared up my gallbladder. I don’t know what these caster beans are, but I am so thankful. I hope this helps someone, they also say that castor oil would help with your cataracts that it would dissolve your cataracts. I wish I would’ve known that a long time ago I’m 68 years old.❤
I did it faithfully for my husband's legs and feet for 3 months . It did absolutely NOTHING
Well..Your Honest experience is Important. It's interesting how people can have different results to the same treatment.
maybe you bought an inferior or fraudulant product
I'm using on my hands. It helps for that day but the pain comes right back the next day you.
Go check out Vitality essential oils
Check the quality of your oil as most of them are refined.
What a genuinely wonderful service you are providing here on your channel.
May Unending Blessings be upon always
Thank you

The sensation in my feet is gone from chemo. I’ve been using Castor Oil for years for everything else…duh, me! You said your glucose is crazy, but you’re doing a great job keeping weight off. 🕊️
I have a large cyst on my left wrist. I have been applying a Castor oil soaked gauze, then rap in plastic rap, then cover with an Ace bandage every night for going on 16 days now. I'm beginning to see the cyst getting smaller. This treatment sure bets surgery. I also found it has a good effect on the bathroom duties. 😊 🇺🇸
Hi Coyotes! FANTASTIC! I'm all for keeping anyone out of surgery. Thanks for commenting.

Thanks for this neuropathy video - super helpful. I see castor used all the time for Lyme but never in my SFN communities.
Totally agree that lots of complicated methods are used. I can say that the heating of it is about JUST the application amount and JUST to open pores to increase velocity of its ability to penetrate into the skin. All that said, I have had no trouble at all just using it straight on the skin, and I'm never looking to make a hard medical life even harder, so I'm with you there. I also agree we have to be intuitive about the temp. we like - personally, even though all my conditions would point to heat therapy, I ONLY do well with ice, and I use it allll the time.
Questions: Could you share whether you had any initial herx reactions or not? I am working through some unexpected herx from something else so it is on the brain. I am hypothesizing that since castor has sooo much antioxidant to it, perhaps it supports the body as it detoxes, so that may smooth that landing a lot, but since my body is weak I can go into toxic shock pretty fast.
Thanks so much! Very glad to find your channel.
New subscriber.. 4 years severe neuropathy going into pelvic but all testing normal including nerve conduction and biopsy .. Can you do a video on heavy legs and also the constant internal vibrations?
Hi nawluck! Thanks for commenting and sharing your experience with neuropathy. It absolutely sucks I hear you. I'll be happy to cover the neuropathy symptoms in another video for you. In the interim I've put a couple of other uploads I've done on the topic here if you'd like to watch. Wishing you well ❤❤

@@Catherine-ty8ss hi Catherine! Thanks for commenting and absolutely! I’ve used R-ALA in combination with benfotiamine for a while. I also did a video on it if you’re interested in my findings.

I saw castor oil in a store I frequent. I heard of it, wondered what it was for.
Now I know. I've peripherial neuropathy, and have been having borderline high diabetic numbers, but not high enough to be considered diabetic, which runs in my family.
I have been taking the B vitamins, and a blood flow supplement (Juvenon Blood Flow 7) for almost a year. I can now wear shoes all day, every day.
I will give Castor oil a try.
Benfotiamine is great for neuropathy. It’s a form of B1.
I’m so tired of the tingling feet, I’ll try it!
Thank you sooooo much for this video! I and all of my 4 siblings have been using castor oil on our skin with no issues. I got my wife to use castor oil daily on her skin and she loved it. But I also have her taking multiple vitamins and minerals too. She has a sensitive gut with irritable bowel issues. She has been having major laxative like issues so I had her quit taking all supplements. No help. Finally saw your vid so I told her to lay off the castor oil. Immediate relief! Her life is so much better now. Thank you again!!!
Hi Steve! Thank you so much for your great comment and for sharing this!! I'm so happy your wife benefitted. I have to say I can't really believe how effective it's been for me. I was a hard skeptic when I first started using it but I'm completely converted now. I'm like that crazy aunt who tells you to put castor oil on everything lol. Happy you found the channel!
Danielle
I agree with the music topic. Please leave it out. For some people (like me) it is very irritating, I can not explain why. I appreciate all the info on castor oil. I will try it again, consistently.
For anyone with neuropathy, the neural pathways are already overloaded, so anything that adds to that is agitating. That's the why
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! This video was helpful, informative and I Ioved the bloopers at the end😁 I just subscribed!
Hi and thank you for letting me know!
Danielle
The neuropathy sock from Amazon is comforting at night.
Oh I need to check into this!!! Is there a name of the product you could share with us please?
I am so glad your video came up on my screen. You have done a great job doing your research as a licensed nurse! I have been hospitalized because of this & it has been a very painful experience for about 2 years now. I am taking prescribed meds, that help, oxycodone is the one that really helps the pain, but I have always preferred to use natural remedies if possible. I still am unable to walk without holding on to something, but I will persevere daily until I do. My wife, doctors & wonderful nurses 👍 have been very helpful & a Blessing. I am 72 with a severe case of GBS, but I will win this battle soon. 😊 Thank you, I will purchase this item today. God Bless you all...
Hi Bermudaguy! Thanks for commenting and sharing your experience! I truly hope it helps for you as it did for me. Sending positive thoughts and support your way!
Danielle
You have to put the oil in a poultice and leave for hours and has to be done consistently
How interesting that your video popped up, as I bought a bottle of organic, unrefined, cold-pressed, no additive, 92+% Ricinoleic Acid Castor Oil about 5 months ago and have never opened it. I don't even recall why I bought it...I must've watch someone's YT video on something...lol Anyway, I don't have diabetes nor any neuropathy but I am 79 yrs old and decided to give it a go on my feet and massage up the calves to see if it will get rid of muscles tightness/slight soreness just above the arch of my right foot; and a very, very slight tightness in the left foot. After watching your wonderful video, I'm convinced it cannot hurt. I did subscribe and will check back in with any positive results. Thank you for the education.
Have you heard of Jamaican black castor oil? It is stronger than clear castor oil and wonder if it would work as well...?
I use to do foot massages years ago to help most of the problems you were talking about and they were suggesting using caster oil because it is thicker and helps protect the skin especially it you are pushing hard and they have dry skin. I never used it for anything but a year or so my brother was talking about an I ordered some more he’s been using it for dry eyes and on cuts and bruises with very good results over the last year. Like I said the foot massages work great and healing properties are going to just make it even better
Thank you for this clear and concise video. You are a gem!❤
Hi Sarah! Thanks so much for commenting and you are most welcome. I'm glad you benefitted from it. ❤❤
Hope you're doing well.

Ok, I have a lot of trouble with my calves, due to neuropathy. I am type 2 diabetic. I ordered the castor oil and tried last night. It was so much better. The night before the pain woke me up. I will keep at it. So glad I found your TH-cam video :)
Hi Craftsgalore! I'm so glad you tried it and it seems to be helping! That's exactly my experience-overnight I had improvement. I thought I was crazy initially but it just continued to improve. I'm not sure if you just watched the castor oil video but also wanted to make you aware that there are several other videos on Lucid Med relating to neuropathy, chronic disease, meds and natural remedies used to treat them etc that you might find helpful.
Danielle
@@lucidmed3343 I have been watching your videos, so glad I found you 🥰🥰
@@TheCraftsgalorehello, do you mind explaining how do you use castor oil ?
@@BG-eh6be right now I am applying to my calves and feet before I go to bed. Massage it in. It has only been a few days, but I feel it is helping ❤️❤️
I can't wait to try this to my feet
Hi Danielle, your post is clear and informative, i like you do not rush at all. Yes,brilliant job!
@@mihaelafrincu8732 Hi! Thank you for saying so! I’m really happy you benefitted from the info ❤️
Danielle
You must make sure that your sheets are 100% organic cotton (GOT certified). Castor oil pulls toxins from material and other points of contact. You do not want to absorb it. And yes, it does stain clothing etc. But be more worried about the toxicity. Same with the packs. Get a good quality material to use!
And dye and bleach free! And then how you wash them.
I have discovered castor oil in the last year-and have used it for a variety of things. As a kid who suffered with bladder issues I was given castor oil before kidney xrays along with enemas-that was what I associated castor oil with. I will try it on my hands now which are giving me numbness and pain.
Thank you for all the information and I like all of the presentation, even the music.
I find your honesty and very natural humor delightful!, I too have found a nice side effect of better sleep very helpful. I also was found that some foot calluses disappeared within one week.
Hi John! Thanks for commenting and the positive feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. The improved sleep is amazing. Looking into more in depth explanation of why this occurs for tonight's LIVE stream (8PM EST) hope you can join me.

Excellent video in every way: very informative, clever cinematography, health benefit potential, application methods, disclaimers, presentation, touch of humor.... thank you for the effort you put into this video. The light background music was appropriate. BTW I have some peripheral neuropathy especially in my feet. I will be giving this a try!
Hi Wakeup! Thank you so much for taking the time to comment and your positivity. It means a great deal to me. I've seen so many write that they're giving the castor oil a try so I can't wait to hear updates. Hope to see you Sunday in the livestream. I'll be answering questions and going over my findings since the video.
Danielle
The message is great but the music interfere. Awful!
Fascinating. My ex boyfriend's father has neuropathy in his shoulders resulting from a covid bout that left him with a number of long-term issues.
I just have numbness and it seems to be moving up from the feet onto my legs now, I am type 2 D, on carnivore diet on Metformin, no insulin. A1C 6.9 so under some control now. Just ordered it.
Try the supplement Benfotiamine (lab version of B1; thiamine). I learned about it from Dr. Berg. The stuff is awesome but you have to take it every day or the neuropathy will return. It has been scientifically studied to aid with diabetic neuropathy. I've been using it for the past 2 years with great success.
Go plant based just for a couple of months and you will dump the metformin . Avoid everything processed .
Good luck! Let us know how it works!
@@sobeit1927 my father is vegetarian and definitely not eating meat is helping him a lot, he is too diabetic. He isnt taking statin and other meds diabetic need,i think he is on a low dose of metfornin but he can even stop it coz his sugar level is usually very good.
Metformin destroyed my muscles and my nerves
You might also try a magnesium citrate capsule each morning. With my pronounced neuropathy the capsule eliminated the pain and tingling. The numbness is still there but has been slowly getting less and less with introduction of a keto diet
Could you provide the brand and mg., dosing info. Thank you
@@joannew6697 i have used the walmart nature made brand 250 mg taking one every morning though i have also used the spring valley 100mg version with the same effect.
Thank you so much for the work you are doing and for sharing your personal experience with peripheral neuropathy. My wife has been struggling with neuropathy in her feet for several years. Most visits with her podiatrist end with nothing to speak of. You have given me hope. I am ordering the castor oil and I know that she will be more than happy to give it a shot. Thank you again for sharing and I promise to update when we have results.
The most important point that you missed...if you are massaging it into your legs and feet before bed, how do you prevent getting the oil all over your sheets. I haven't figured that out and would like to know how you do it. How long do you have to wait for it to not be greasy? Why does everyone forget about the practical aspects of the use? Keep a light sock to put on it or you won't be able to walk on your floor or carpet. Or have a rubber sandal you can slip on after applying. Other suggestions...what about when do you use red light....certainly not after application. Please let me know more details about the actual application, including not getting it all over your bed. I might be up now for hours waiting for it to absorb. It is too hot for PJ bottoms and I am now stuck with a greasy leg.
Hi GK! Thanks so much for your comment and question. I realized I missed talking about the bed sheets after I uploaded so I'm glad you've asked this question. I put the oil on about an hour before bed and I'd estimate it takes about 30 minutes until it's pretty well absorbed. I haven't had an issue with it transferring to my sheets as long as I give it a good 30 min to an hour prior to hopping in to bed. I would also maybe suggest if your sheets are super nice and expensive (mine are not lol) to put a clean towel down to absorb any excess. Other than that-I try to keep this as simple as possible otherwise-I won't do it. I know myself and if it's complicated game over.

I wrap my whole foot about 3 times with bandages after rubbing in castor oil, wear same thongs each night after applying, thongs do still get sticky, then wear socks to bed. Still, after few weeks the oil gradually soaks right through to socks onto sheets. I occasionally soak sheets to whiten but be prepared to throw socks away and start again.
Use a red light first, then after 30 min or an hour apply castor oil, put on socks to keep from making a mess before it absorbs
I would put it on an hour or more before bed and put on my sweats so I didn't get the oil on anything. I didn't leave a thick sheet of oil on my skin. I rubbed it in pretty good. When I went to bed and took off my sweats, it didn't get on my sheets. I never saw any on my sweats either, but if it was, it was on the inside and didn't soak through. If any oil was on them, it came out in the washer.
Wear socks
