"My mother gave me this every day for years. I later developed ulcerative colitis, but not sure it had anything to do with the Castoria."

"After getting out of the hospital following a heart attack, I was so constipated that nothing I tried would help me have a bowel movement. I tried everything that others suggested, even ate prunes, dried and boiled. Finally, I found a bottle of children's Castoria in my medicine closet that I kept there for my children. I took the Castoria and was relieved to have a bowel movement within 12 hours. Thank you, Castoria!!! The only side effect was that I have been regular ever since!"
