Use Case
Occasional constipation
Primary Active Ingredients & Mechanisms
- Castor Oil 650 mg (Ricinus communis seed)
- Cold-pressed and hexane-free. Contains ricinoleic acid (about 90% of castor oil's fatty acid content), which binds to EP3 prostaglandin receptors in the intestinal smooth muscle to stimulate peristalsis.
- Fennel Oil 10 mg (Foeniculum vulgare fruit)
- Anti-spasmodic essential oil that calms intestinal smooth muscle, offsetting castor oil's cramping tendency.
Who is it for?
Adults dealing with occasional constipation who want a fast-acting natural option without the spoon-of-oil experience. Not for daily long-term use as a regularity strategy.
Why use it?
Liquid castor oil works but tastes terrible and often causes cramping. NOW puts it in a softgel and adds fennel oil to soften the cramping side effect, which makes the traditional remedy actually usable.
When to use it
Best taken in the morning or early afternoon, since onset is typically 2 to 6 hours and you want to be home, not on a school run.
How to use it
One to two softgels as needed for occasional constipation. Drink a full glass of water with the dose. Do not use daily for more than 7 consecutive days.

Strategic Cross-Sell
Florish Spore Probiotics 60 Capsules
If constipation is recurring rather than occasional, the root issue is usually gut microbiome composition and fibre intake. Florish Probiotics restores beneficial bacteria that support normal motility long-term.
