Published Scientific Reports confirm that Black Seed has an astounding array of health benefits:
Increases immune function.
Increases immune function.
~ U.S. Patents Sections, Antiviral Agents Bulletin #5,482,711
Black seed stimulates bone marrow and immune cells and raises the interferon production, protects normal cells against cell destroying effects of viruses,
destroys tumor cells and raises the number of anti-bodies producing B cells.
~ Cancer Immuno-biology Laboratory ,
South Carolina Black seed contains valuable unsaturated fatty acids,
for example Linoleic and Gammalinolen acids get into the organism.
By that it possible to reach a synthesis of important immune regulating substances
derived as from Prostaglandin E1.
Linoleic acid stabilizes the cell membranes and Prostaglandin
has the effect of inhibiting inflammation. By that the immune reactions
are stopped which cause the illnesses and which otherwise could be
the start of many chronic illnesses like acne and hayfever right up to cancer.
~ Dr. Peter Schleicher Immunologist, Munich, Germany
Black seed proves to have an ant histamine, ant-oxidant, anti-biotic,
anti-mycotic and broncho-dilating effect.
~ Study of Black seed oil on humans, American Scientists
Black seed is truly a remarkable herb that has been used for over 3000 years.
It contains over 100 valuable components. It is a significant source
of essential fatty acids, proteins, carbohydrates and other vitamins and minerals.
" The seeds are also rich in sterols, especially beta-sitosterol,
which is known to have anticarcinogenic activity".
~ Dr. Michael Tierra L.AC. O.M.D
Black seed tests prove to be genuine universal remedy.
~ Pharmaceutical newspaper, Wissenschaftlicher Text

Black Seed is a traditional herb that has been in use for thousands of years
by people living in the Middle East and some parts of Asia and Africa
to promote health and fight disease. It is also known the “Blessed Seed”.
What are the essential properties of Black Seed?
Black Seed herb contains over 100 components, many of which still remain to be discovered.
What are the essential properties of Black Seed?
Black Seed herb contains over 100 components, many of which still remain to be discovered.
It is a rich source of unsaturated fatty acids and contains about 35% oil,
21% protein, and 38% carbohydrates. More than 50% of the oil are essential fatty acids.
It’s linoleic acid and gamma linolenic acid content help form Prostaglandin E1,
which helps the body to inhibit infections, balances the immune system,
and regulates allergic reactions. Gamma-linolenic acid also helps stabilize
the cell membrane. Black Seed also contains about .5-1.5% volatile oils including
Nigellone and thymochinon which are responsible for Black Seed’s anti-histamine,
anti-oxidant, anti-infective, and broncho-dialating effect.
What are some of the traditional uses of Black Seed?
Traditionally, Black Seed has been used for a variety of conditions and treatments
related to respiratory health, stomach and intestinal complaints, kidney & liver function, circulatory and immune system support, and to improve general health.
Its can be topically used for eczema, psoriasis, arthritis, inflammation, and scalp massage.
What scientific research has there been on Black Seed?
Since 1959, there have been over 200 studies at international universities
and articles published in various journals showing remarkable results
supporting some of its traditional uses. In 1960, Egyptian researchers confirmed that Nigellone was responsible for Black Seeds broncho-dialating effect. Recently scientists in Europe have confirmed the anti-bacterial and anti-mycotic effects of black seed oil. Scientists at the Cancer and Immuno-Biological Laboratory have found that Black Seed stimulates bone marrow and immune cells and raises the interferon production, protects normal cells against cell destroying effects of viruses, destroys tumor cells and raises the number of anti-bodies producing B cells.
What about the effects of Black Seed and Prostaglandin E1 on the Immune System?
Through the formation of Protaglandin E1, the complete immune system is harmonized and the body’s over-reactive allergic reactions are stabilized. By also inhibiting infection, the immune system is able to prevent and control chronic illnesses. Healthy cells are protected from the damaging effects of viruses, inhibiting tumors. As a result Interferon cell protein is formed, inhibiting growth of damaging micro-organisms.
Recently independent clinical studies published in the Archives of Aids also established some astonishing effects of Black Seed on the defense system by improving the ratio between helper T-cells and suppressor T-cells by a significant amount while also enhancing the natural killer cell activity.
What are some of the other Effects of Black Seed?
Black Seed helps support metabolism, digestion, and lowers blood sugars levels. It has been useful in the treatment of diabetes melitus. In digestive matters, Black Seed helps to stimulate bile and promote regularity, improve digestion, and has been used to fight worms and parasites of the intestinal tract.
What are the overall benefits of Black Seed?
Black Seed is a excellent herb with many benefits, especially when it comes to maintaining a strong and healthy immune system.

Nigella is a genus of about 14 species of annual plants in the family Ranunculaceae, native to southern Europe, north Africa and southwest Asia. Common names applied to members of this genus are Devil-in-a-bush or Love in the mist.
The species grow to 20-90 cm tall, with finely divided leaves, the leaf segments narrowly linear to threadlike. The flowers are white, yellow, pink, pale blue or pale purple, with 5-10 petals. The fruit is a capsule composed of several united follicles, each containing numerous seeds; in some species (e.g. Nigella damascena), the capsule is large and inflated. Spread some in your yard, and it will reseed itself every year.

Culinary
The seeds of N. sativa, known as kalonji, black cumin (though this can also refer to Bunium persicum) or just nigella, are used as a spice in Indian and Middle Eastern cuisine. The dry roasted nigella seeds flavor curries, vegetables and pulses. The black seeds taste mostly like oregano crossed with pepper. Most people use it as a "pepper" in recipes with pod fruit, vegetables, salads and poultry.

In India the seeds are used as a carminative and stimulant to ease bowel and indigestion problems and are given to treat intestinal worms and nerve defects to reduce flatulence, and induce sweating. Dried pods are sniffed to restore a lost sense of smell. It is also used to repel some insects, much like mothballs.
Nigella can be easily dried. Nigella is cut when pods reach maximum size and color. Nigella pods range from deep green to deep burgundy, with stripes in between. The first few pods are picked with as long a stem as possible, one at a time. The plant flowers profusely and so when most of the flowers become seed pods, pull the entire plant and cut the stems. Then wrap a rubber band around a small bundle of stems and then hang them upside down for drying in a dark, airy place until dry.
