How Atlas Castor Oil 50 mL Relieves Constipation

Understanding Occasional Constipation

Constipation can be a common digestive issue, characterized by infrequent bowel movements or difficulty passing stools. Various factors, including diet, lack of exercise, and certain medications, can contribute to this condition. Atlas Castor Oil offers a natural solution to alleviate occasional constipation.

How Atlas Castor Oil Works

Mechanism of Action

Atlas Castor Oil is a stimulant laxative. It works by stimulating the muscles in the intestines, which promotes bowel movements. The active compound, ricinoleic acid, is absorbed in the small intestine and triggers the release of prostaglandins, which increase intestinal motility.

• Stimulates intestinal muscles
• Increases bowel motility
