It's the oil from the very toxic castor bean. Parents used to give it to kids to aid regularity and to promote vomiting. It's disgusting and hardly in use anymore, thank goodness.

a colorless to pale yellow, viscid liquid, usually obtained from the castor bean by a pressing process: used as a lubricant, in the manufacture of certain soaps and creams, and in medicine chiefly as a cathartic.

a lot of women believe that taking it can induce labor. There are quite a few nasty side effects, like diarrhea, it also tastes nasty. I would NOT recommend it for labor induction.

It is an oil that will help keep you regular, but it tastes nasty
