Hello My Loves,
Hope you are having a great week so far!
First I wanted to share some good news with you! This Saturday I will be returning on Good Morning America to do another segment. 
The producers told me that the first one I did was one of their most popular segments ever, with thousands of people coming on their website and leaving comments. So Yay!!! It will be around 8:45 am, so if you are up please do tune in. I promise I won’t be in my jammies sans makeup, like I am here in these photos!
Now let’s talk about an easy way to increase the elimination of toxins out of the body. Many of you have been writing me that you have been making changes and improvements to your diet, and most especially the Green Smoothie, which is just awesome!! So along with that, we want to be sure that we are removing as much of the toxicity that has “awakened” as possible, for as you change your diet you will wake up some of the older impaction in your body. This is great….provided we get it out!
So this is what I call the CASTOR PACK DETOX. What the heck is that?? Well it’s easy as can be, and highly beneficial. It involves the use of castor oil, which is a thick vegetable oil derived from the castor bean, which is grown mainly in Brazil, India and China. It has been used for centuries in many cultures.
With the CASTOR PACK DETOX, we place the castor oil directly all over our bellies and digestive tracts, where the castor oil has the ability to soak through the skin to improve the elimination of toxins and and stimulate circulation.
There are a couple of ways to do it, but basically this is how I do it, and find it the least messy. Because castor oil is pretty thick!!
Step 1: You rub the castor oil all over the belly area, over to both sides. (Some people like to soak the castor oil in a cotton cloth, which is another option.
Step 2: Now ladies and gentlemen…I present the saran wrap!! Voila! Take the saran wrap and cover your now rather sticky, castor oil-ed up belly!
Step 3: Cover the saran wrap with a towel!
Step 4: This is the best part!!! You cover the whole thing with a heating pad or a hot water bottle, sit back, and CHILLAX!! Now you can kick it and read a book or watch TV. You should keep the heat on for at ideally 45 minutes to one hour.
The CASTOR PACK DETOX is best practiced right before bed, a few hours after you’ve eaten dinner. It will help loosen the toxicity up and any obstructions in the digestive tract. It can be practiced 1-3 times a week. You can get pure, cold-pressed castor oil at health food stores and markets.
Have fun!! You will feel like a little kid playing with finger paints when you stick all that oil on you.
Love,
Kimberly

is it okay to shower afterwards? I have a friend that buys those detox wraps and she’s not allowed to shower afterwards.
Hi Kimberly, actually i am suffering from ibs(irritable bowel syndrome) can i still use this pack? please reply .thanks in advance.
Hi Kimberly, I jus want to know where can I purchase the castor oil without having to order it from the internet.
Thank you

Hi Kimberly,
I also was wondering about the cling wrap on the skin. I thought it was toxic?!
Using castor wrap now for two months, 5 x daily and night. Made up my own zip – on wrap. My skin is best ever, soft and healthy to the touch. You should see the crap that is coming on to the wrap which I cover with cling film. I have gone total vegetarian. Best thing – nutrition in my life My ,PSA is dropping from 46 to 18 with some help from foot baths and supplements. Don’t go to doctors any more. Watch this space ! Patrick. F. M
What is psa?
PSA in a blood test to check hormone levels in a mand prostate
If someone has had a colonoscopy, wouldn’t that get everything out of your system? And, how long after one has begun a healthier diet does one want to begin the Castor Pack Detox? Does the diet have to be raw? I still eat cooked chicken, fish and cooked vegies (mostly steamed or briefly stir-fried), and beef maybe three or four times a month. I am about to remove breads from my diet again (I go on/off with this. I love it, but it doesn’t love me).
Thank you for your time and also for you great tips; not to mention the recipe’s!
Hi Kim!
I came across this post again after castor oiling for about a year and I have a question with respect to the cling wrap. It just came to thought… if we are heating the plastic wrap on our tummies – would the plastic toxins be released into the system? Is that dangerous?
Thanks again for sharing your health tips… love your book! Such an informative guide.

Thanks a lot for this step by step, helped a lot! so far…knock knock
Hi Kimberly.
I tried this last night and it was great.
But I’ve got a question:
I have a tattoo on my belly, does the castor oil make anything
at the tattoo ink? Like discolor the tattoo or something?
thank you,
Susana
Oh crap I don’t know! Maybe ask your tatoo artist?? I don’t think it would since you can put regular lotion on a tattoo, and the heat isn’t so intense.
Thank you Kimb!
I’ll ask to the tatoo artist.
Take care!

Great Site. I agree with your comments and only wish more people listened to this. Go the Natural Detox.
kimberly,
any tips for cellulite? i drink tons of water, eat 50-75% raw, exercise (running/hiking + pilates reformer classes + kickboxing) 5-6x/wk. NO gluten or dairy. Only non-vegan food i eat is organic free-range hormone free chicken or organic “..” salmon.
Do you think this castor oil pack would help w/ cellulite if used on legs?
Cool tip! Does only Castor oil has these properties? Could I use coconut oil instead?
Kim,
You have the neatest tricks!
I love this one can’t wait to try it!
Kimberly, wow great news about being on Good Morning America again! I am glad that people are really starting to “think” about their food choices. This Castor detox sounds amazing. I will try this one for sure this weekend with my twin sister. I have done a castor oil cleanse before and had to drink it, ugh! So I am SOOOO happy to hear that this detox I do not have to drink it. LOL> Thanks for always posting such great information. I will let you know how it goes. Michelle
HI Michelle,
Thanks for your kind words!
Yes, some people drink the castor oil, but I’d rather not. I’d drink aloe, but not castor oil.
Come visit me again!
xx Kimberly
Yes we drink aloe vera as well!! We did the castor oil pack last night and loved it. It was totally relaxing and our bodies felt rested, which was nice!! This is something we will continue to use when we feel we need help getting toxins out!
Michelle
Hey Kim! A couple questions about this: 1. Can you use it if you’re sick? I know a friend who is chronically ill and all the meds cause constipation. Would this help with that? I worry about talking about a detox process with someone on lots of meds and not a raw diet. 2. Can you use it on other parts of your body, like legs, feet, hands? Would there be benefits? What part would you want to avoid? Like lymph? 3. After you’re done should you avoiding showering for awhile or do it immediately or is that silly to ask!? Thanks for additional advice…see you soon!
Hi Leslie,
If someone’s diet hasn’t changed, then they shouldn’t really be doing too many detox methods. The diet has to change first! I have used castor packs mainly around the liver, gall bladder, digestive tract for the circulation and relaxing benefits to eliminate poison. I haven’t used it on my hands or feet- so you may want to check before doing that! I don’t think the showering will matter, just be sure the area is dry first!
Love, xx Kim
Hi Kimberly, thank you for sharing this simple detoxing method. Have you ever done a liver and gall bladder flush to eliminate gall stones? It involves drinking a lot of apple juice or taking malic acid for several days and then on the final day, ingesting epsom salts mixed with water and also a combination of olive oil and fresh grapefruit juice. I haven’t tried it, but I have read on different forums that it is an effective way of treating different health conditions including skin problems.
Hi Christi,
At a longevity center I volunteered at for a while, they had a very popular liver and gall bladder flush program, which is where I first got into the castor oil packs. It is really amazing all the good they can do. And yes, can be helpful for the skin.
Come visit me again!
