Castor oil , aging skin ? topically or orally ?

[DarkHairHair]

Hello everyone, I have a question about castor oil.

I have heard that it increases the PGE2 but does it have a harmful effect on the skin? I use castor oil topically and not orally. Does castor oil cause aging of the skin?

Do you have a theory about this or have you heard this?

I have heard that castor oil increase PGE2 which is bad for skin aging. I don't have any theory about this.

Lol. That is similar to what some people say about minoxidil. Hopefully, we don't have to choose between hair and face because I like them both!

The effect of pge2 analogs on skin is real. It takes some time to show up, but they inhibit something important for collagen synthesis, but i don't recall the name of the enzyme

Could this happen internally too, hypothetically then?
