The Black Seed. Many people from Africa, Middle East, and also Asia have been using the black seed oil and herb to support their health for centuries. An aromatic spice, similar looking to sesame seed except black in color, it has been traditionally used for a variety of conditions and treatments related to respiratory health, stomach and intestinal health, kidney and liver function, circulatory and immune system support, and for general overall well-being.
Beside known as Black Caraway Seed, Habbatus Sauda, Black Cumin, Blessed Seed and others, Black Seed is also known by its botanical name "Nigella Sativa".
Since 1959, over 1000 articles have been published resulting to over 200 studies at international universities about Black Seed, especially black seed's traditional uses recorded almost 1500 years ago.
While the Black Seed is highly effective by itself, ongoing studies with the combination of other herbs have produced remarkable results.
Amazingly, Black Seed's chemical composition is very rich and diverse. Aside from its primary ingredient, crystalline nigellone, Black Seed contains 15 amino acids, proteins, carbohydrates, both fixed oils (84% fatty acids, including linolenic, and oleic), and volatile oils, alkaloids, saponin, and crude fiber, as well as minerals such as calcium, iron, sodium and potassium. There are still many components in Black Seed that haven't been identified. But research is going on around the world.
