Though castor oil has traditionally been used as a medicinal remedy, it has also been used as an ingredient in fuel, lubricant, varnish, soap, and perfumes. Since the seeds contain a toxic substance called ricin, they are highly dangerous to both people and animals if ingested.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Brownridge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47775950569666,"sku":"RIZA100","price":14.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0610\/3452\/8962\/files\/download_2_703d8305-b089-4bef-b5d8-45ae8cf30aca.jpg?v=1781195309","url":"https:\/\/laportesnursery.ca\/products\/ricinus-zanzibariensis","provider":"Laporte's Nursery \u0026 Greenhouses Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
