Why is iAMA Castor Oil cold pressed?

iAMA Castor Oil is 100% cold-pressed which means the oil extracted from the seeds of the castor plant (Ricinus communis) without the use of extreme heat and chemical solvents.

The benefits of this are:

Extraction Method
In cold pressing, the seeds are
crushed, and oil is extracted using mechanical pressure. This process is carried out at low temperatures to preserve the natural properties of the oil.

Preserves Nutrients
The absence of heat in cold
pressing helps retain the oil's beneficial nutrients, like ricinoleic acid, fatty acids, and vitamins, which might degrade with heat or chemical extraction methods.

No Contamination Risk
Since chemical solvents are not used, there's no risk of contamination with unwanted chemicals or residues. This makes our cold-pressed Castor Oil a purer and more natural product.

Higher Quality
Our cold-pressed Castor Oil has
a higher quality due to the preservation of its natural compounds and minimal processing. It retains a rich, thick consistency and a slight earthy aroma.

Eco-Friendly

When using iAMA Castor Oil for the first time, it is recommended to use minimally and build up.

Do a patch test on a small area of your skin before applying larger amounts.

Why is iAMA Castor Oil hexane free?

Our Castor Oil is 100% hexane free and has been extracted without the use of hexane or other harsh solvents.

Health Concerns
Hexane is a volatile organic compound and can be harmful if inhaled or ingested in significant quantities.

Environmental Impact
The extraction process using hexane can have environmental risks, including pollution from the solvent itself and energy use.

Can iAMA Castor Oil be used during pregnancy?

Pregnant women should avoid using Castor Oil during pregnancy for internal use or in large quantities.

Taking orally

iAMA Castor Oil comes in a glass bottle, unlike other brands that use a plastic one. We recommend that you store the oil in a cool, dark place and keep away from
children.

Why do you store iAMA Castor Oil in a glass bottle?

Plastic bottles contain chemicals, and those chemicals can leach into the Castor Oil. This plastic leachate can have detrimental health effects on consumers.

Our glass bottle preserves the purity of the Castor Oil and is resistant to shape changes, discoloring, stains, taste- and odor transmission.
