Rewetting drops maybe a waste of your money!

Don’t put words into my mouth

Chip,
What do you have to ‘lower’ to reply to me, your ego, status, reputation? Even my boss will never have this kind of altitude in front of me or the staff. I just asked someone the question ‘Do you really think I am one of the idiots? Do you want to guess what my IQ is?’. How on earth did that make you think that I thought that I have a high IQ? To me, the dumbest person on earth may have his/her ‘smart’ moment. Don’t underestimate one’s mind.

I said:

The oil may temporarily relief the dry eyes, but all the side effects associating with CL are just too much. What a price to pay for a little comfort!

When I said ‘The oil may temporarily relief the dry eyes…’, it was based on my best judgement of your remarks about Castor oil in earlier posts.

Enough said in my earlier posts about Castor oil-dry eyes-CL etc… Won’t you agree that too many potential eye problems may show up before the oil eventually cures the dry eyes?

Can we get dyip into the big brother house?

I have a copy of that folk medicine book by D.C. Jarvis M.D.
Chapter 12 deals with Castor and Corn oil.
it says
"5. If the eye develops redness and irritation, one drop of castor oil dropped in the eyemakes it more comfortable and relieves irritation."

more importantly,
"7.Castor oil, applied to the eyelashes at bedtime three times a week, will thicken them and make them grow longer. The same treatment applies to eyebrow growth."

Ladies, what are you waiting for???
Actually, does anyone know who Liam and Noel Gallagher are? Maybe give the eyebrows a miss.

Dyip, i think you are brilliant. You should make your signature "RESPECT MY AUTHORITY"

So this Castor oil really has some kind of ‘magical’ effects when applied to different body parts as mentioned in previous posts. If eyelashes and eyebrows can be thickened and lengthened by this oil, I am wondering what it can do to the men’s bald spots. For those who are very sensitive about this touchy mid-life crisis issue, I think that it is worth to give this magical oil a trial. At worst, the bald spots will just look shinier from the oily reflection if nothing else happens.

i don't think you should consider them "magical." Remember that most precription drugs are synthesised versions of elements found in nature. I've tried a course of Chinese herbal medicine when a treatment of conventional drugs had failed (for an abcess on my wisdon tooth) and not only did it cure the problem, but every other infection in my body including what had been chronic athelete's foot.
its only in the last 300 years that medicine as we know it became "conventional" and all else became "alternative," untill then they had gone hand in hand and had enjoyed equal respect. Who's to say that old remedies are worng. They may seem unusal but are born out of a time and place where conventional medicine was not available...

dyip:

You should be very happy about Castor Oil, it's so CHEAP that the CONSUMER isn't being taken advantage of.
Or perhaps you don't like it because there is no cause here for you to attach yourself to.

Hey DYIP, what do you think about Wal-Mart?

Castor Oil .................

Dyip,

Besides medical properties, castor oil has hundreds of applications in industry and you would very surprised in how many of them this product is a standard under dozens of different brand names.
